Over time, Leon’s feelings for Hannah grew deeper, stronger, and more intense.
He had grown used to having her with him all the time.
Thus, he hoped she would stay by his side for the rest of his life.
Upon hearing his words, Hannah’s mind went blank.
What did her dream guy just say?
Was she dreaming?
Hannah quickly pinched her palm at the thought in an attempt to discern between dream and reality.
Her palm hurt. That meant this wasn’t a dream. It was real!
Hannah felt even more dumbfounded…
This meant Leon actually liked her! He was confessing to her, wasn’t he?
Did her dream guy actually reciprocate her feelings?
Never in her wildest dreams did Hannah imagine she would go through such an experience.
Excitement jammed her mind, so much that she was rendered speechless.
There were many things she wanted to say, and yet, she couldn’t utter a single word.
Her heartbeat increased rapidly, and her entire body began to shake.
Sensing her trembling body, Leon tightened his embrace. “I know what you’re thinking. Yes, I like you. I’m confessing to you, Hannah. Let’s be together…”
“I understand what you’re going through. I also know the reason you left school. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you from now on…
“You must be curious as to why I showed up today. Perhaps you might not know, but this business belongs to my family.
“Your superior is actually my father. When you came for the interview, Rihanna asked my father for his opinion. As soon as my father heard your name, he accepted your request.
“My father heard about you and me from my mother. After that, he told me about you working at the bar we own. That’s why I came here today.
“I’m here to find an opportunity to confess my feelings for you…” Leon explained.
“Do you… Do you actually like me?” Hannah asked timidly.
