Chapter 181
After coming out of the ward, Leo’s expression was so gloomy that no one dared to look at him directly.
A suppressed anger lingered in his chest, unable to he swallowed or spit out
This emotion was the same as every time he was punished in his childhood, every time he was forced to do things he didn’t
want to do
However, if he did not salamit, he would be locked up in that pitch-black room for another night, making him powerless and unable to escape.
The suffocating feeling of being restrained intensified with every word from his mother, overlapping with the pitch-black memories. He was afraid that if he stayed in the ward any longer, the uncontrollable rebellion deep within him would resurface again.
Therefore, his footsteps were quick and fast. He wanted to distance himself from the place behind him and stay far away from the people inside.
say, Leo, why are you walking so fast? Are you really in such a hurry to eat?”
Callen rushed out of the ward, trying to catch his breath but the person in front of him had already created some distance, forcing him to catch up quickly.
Leo paid no attention to his joking and kept his cold expression.
The two of them stood in front of the elevator, At this moment, Cullen found an opportunity to talk to him. “Leo, you are not someone who can’t distinguish right from wrong. You should know that what Auntie said is right. Why bother…”
“Cullen.”
Leo interrupted him.
The elevator stopped on their floor. Leo stepped in and didn’t rush to say anything to Cullen.
At this time, the visiting time for families delivering meals to patients had passed, and there was no one else in the elevator
Leo entered the elevator, and after a moment, he spoke again. “Do you know which dessert shop near the hospital makes the best-tasting desserts”
As soon as he finished speaking, Cullen’s mouth, which was about to say something, suddenly closed.
In the short 30 seconds Leo took to enter the elevator, Cullen had thought about many ways to persuade Leo and also imagined what Leo would say in return.
However, he hadn’t expected Leo to ask such a question.
What good dessert shops are there around here?’ He thought.
After a while, Cullen finally forced out a sentence. I haven’t been back to the city for several years. Why are you asking me
The elevator stopped on the first Bloor
Leo glanced at him expressionlessly and stepped out. “When I was very young, I was forced by my grandfather and Mrs. Ver todo various things I did like The canotions were probably similar to when you learned that Romic had compromised to return to the Wilkinson family to be the young muster, powerless and disgusted. You don’t know that when everyone thought they were doing it for my good only Sally stood by my side”
She was the only our who jenormberei lits bandsday. dark room. Even Mi

Hathe Hale Lamily, but she remembered
Chapter Inl
Only she, in every rehellion against his grandfather and Mrs. Wien, would speak up for him unlike those so-called friends who claimed that his grandfather and Mrs. We were doing it for his good.
“For my good, what a ridiculous phrase
To this day, he has almost forgotten the taste of that cake, but be all always remember the sweetness he tasted when he came out of that clark room.
He had suffered a lot, and only that piece of cake had given him slight sweetness.
He didn’t want to love it
Cullen listened to his words, in silence for a long time. It wasn’t itil the cold wand outside the hospital blew on their faces that he looked at Leo again, his gaze complicates).
“You, you want to marry her just because Sally once stood on your side?“
“Isart it enough that she’s the only one who takes pity on me
Leo stond still and looked back at Cullen seriously.
Cullen usually carefree, also became serious in tone. You know yoursell, it’s pity, not love. Just because of this, you want to marry her. Isn’t there a possibility that she is pretending to be pitiful to you?”
A woman like Sally, who had once harmed Jessica when they were young, how could she show genuine pity for Leo
The more Cullen thought about it, the more uneasy he became. He hurriedly said, “Leo, you’re not marrying her out of love! I should have seen it. If you really liked her, why would you wait so many years without touching her? Is it because you can’t ur you don’t want to? You don’t even want to touch her. Do you think such a marriage can last? Wake up! She approached you with a purpose, and you’ve fallen into the trap Are you lacking common sense?”
Compared to Cullen’s agitation, Leo was much calmer,
He shook his head. “Tin not lacking common sense; I’m lacking love.”
Cullen was dumbfounded.
However, Lea continued earnestly, “Even if she calculated against me, so what? If this calculative woman can show me a little light in the darkness, I’m willing to be the moth that ignores life and death. Maybe you’re right. I don’t love her, I want to marry her just because of an unwilling thought and to break free from the chains of rebellion against me. And she doesn’t love me either. She loves only my money, and, coincidentally, I’m worthless except for money”
Cullen opened his mouth, full of words he wanted to refute, but nothing came out.
However, he thought of the little chubby girl who had been following Leo around since childhood. Did she have to be ignored by Leo just because she had been around for so long?
Cullen couldn’t help but say, “Leo, you say you lack love but isnt Jessica’s love for you enough? She has been with you ever since young. Anyone can see that she likes you. Clear affection is in front of your eyes, but you choose to ignore it and insist on getting involved with Sally. Is your brain defective?”
He didn’t want untere and passionate love, but he had to accept that meticulous scheme and hypocrisy. Was there something wrong with his brain?
“Madison Hale, dae loves me??
