Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 473

Leonard's appearance turned my funeral into a complete mess. Just as I was feeling moved and wondering if he actually had genuine feelings for me, a group of reporters showed up.

The reporters kept taking photos of Leonard. Some of them even took a photo of my funeral picture and the flowers around it. Clearly, these people came prepared. Leonard probably made arrangements for them to be here.

It was a good thing that I was watching a live stream. If I was actually dead, I thought I would've been so enraged that I might've bounced right back to life. It was common sense that the dead demanded respect, but these people showed none of it.

I had an urge to take the first flight out and give all of them the scare of a lifetime.

"Absolutely shameless! Leonard is still putting on an act at a time like this." Crystal's furious voice could be heard. She shared my thoughts.

Leonard was just too much. At first, I thought he was feeling guilty over my death. However, he was merely doing all this to make himself look good.

I was aware that Harmon Group was doing very poorly these days. Luca had never stopped bombarding Leonard. It was clear that both of them weren't going to stop competing until one of them backed down.

Needless to say, the board of directors was simply watching how the confrontation unfolded. In any case, it didn't matter who would become the CEO as long as the company brought them profits.

With that said, Leonard's move was a cunning one. If the reporters had a flair for writing headlines, they'd write something like "Melancholic Love Triangle of the Wealthy: Leonard Wailing Over the Loss of His Wife."

Leonard had a knack for using public opinion to turn the tide of battle. I even had the urge to turn off the live stream. As the passive female lead in this melancholic drama, I felt quite speechless.

Leonard fell to his knees in the middle of the venue and kept crying out his love for me. It was so nauseating that I could just throw up for real.

"You can't die, Eva. I love you so much, and we were so close to getting remarried. We've been in love with each other for many years. Why can't you wait for me a little? Why? Can you really bring yourself to leave me and Lev behind? He can't grow up without his mom!"

Every time he cried, I rolled my eyes. He had forgotten that Levon's mother was Amelia.

"I'm going to hang up now, Zack. I can't be bothered to see his lousy acting. Seriously…" I hadn't even finished my sentence when I suddenly saw a familiar figure running toward Leonard.
