Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 871

Half an hour later, a special waiter arrived with a delicious dinner, a bottle of precious wine and a bottle of cantaloupe juice.

Mary Ann's small hand invisibly tightened around her white jacket, and her pair of beautiful eyes glittered with allure as she became nervous.

Leo only came back to his senses when she walked down and covered his eyes with her hand.

Mary asked him what he was thinking about, his usually resolute eyes revealed a hint of panic that was difficult to be sensed, but it only lasted for a moment, so Mary Ann did not see it clearly, and thought that he was just angry that their relationship had been inexplicably made public.

"Wow, why did you order so many delicious dishes? And all is my favorite food." Mary Ann sat by the side of the table, her beautiful little face was filled with happiness. She thought to herself, for such a man who knows how to love others, she would definitely take him down first.

"You haven't eaten much recently, so I'm afraid you'll get hungry, so I added a few more bites." Seeing her happy, Leo's lips also lifted into a smile. His gaze gently locked onto the face of the girl opposite him. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Leo was not an indecisive person, when it came to handle official matters, he was usually resolute and decisive, with his strong wrist, but at this moment, he finally got that kind of indescribable feeling. It was really hard to bear.

"Leo, thank you!" Mary was suddenly moved, and then she started crying.

Leo never thought that she would cry for some reason. Furthermore, she was crying so much that she lost her image.

With a tinge of panic on his handsome face, Leo hurriedly walked to her side. His large palm landed on her slender and delicate shoulder as he asked in a low and concerned voice, "What's wrong? Why are you crying like this again?"

"... I'm just very touched." Of course, Mary was embarrassed to say that she was acting for him to see before she pushed him away and poured the powder into his wine.

Thus, she could only continue crying and cry loudly.

"Look at you, your face is filled with tears!" Leo knew that she had childish personality, but he didn't dislike her at all. On the contrary, he liked her innocence and after he finished reprimanding her, he straightened himself and said: "I'll get a towel for you to wipe away, don't cry, okay?"

"En, alright!" Hearing that he was going to get a towel, Mary blinked her eyes like a little fox and was secretly happy in her heart.

After Leo finished speaking, he really turned around and went upstairs.

Mary shook her hand and reached into her pocket, taking out that small bag of powder. Seeing that the man's figure had completely disappeared from the stairs, she quickly put the powder into Leo's wine cup with her trembling hand.

Fortunately, the powder and alcohol had melted and no one could see any flaws in it.

Not long after, she saw the man's tall figure walking down the stairs. Mary was so frightened that her little face turned white, and she quickly sat upright, her big eyes flashing non-stop. Hearing the man's footsteps approaching, her entire body became stiff like wood.

The next second, the warm towel in the man's hand lightly landed on her tear-stained face.

"You still can't grow up, you're still like a child!" Although the man was admonishing her, he was pampering her.

Mary had never felt such gentleness before. Her pair of clear and large eyes lifted, and collided with the man's dark and gentle eyes. Her heart instantly beat wildly.

When she thought about what she did just now, she was so scared that she quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze.

"Leo..." She suddenly lowered her head and whispered his name.

"En!" The man replied in a low voice. He had already wiped her small face clean, folded the towel, and placed it aside. He also sat down opposite her.

"If I do something in the future that makes you angry, will you hate me and not treat me well in the future?" Mary instinctively raised her head, and stared fixedly at the man in front of him. She asked and raised her hand instinctively as if she was a child who wanted to beg for forgiveness despite committing a mistake.

Leo reached out to the wine cup at the side, not replying, and laughed instead.

"Sigh ..." Seeing that he did not even answer her, Mary Ann drank mouthfuls of the wine.

"Alright, let's eat. Don't think too much!" Leo thought that she cried out because he didn't answer her, making her anxious. He took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef, and placed it in Mary's bowl, telling her to hurry up and eat it.

On Mary's beautiful little face, her expression changed between red and white.

"Alright!" Mary wanted to say more, but her mind was completely blank. Out of the corner of her eye,

she saw that Leo had actually finished drinking all the wine in the cup in one breath.

It seemed that he must also be feeling depressed, which was why he wanted to drink so much.

Mary's eyes were tightly shut, the small hands holding the chopsticks slightly trembling. God, he really drank all.

Mary thought about her friend's surprised expression as she looked at her, and said that she had to be cautious with using powder, because, it was very possible that there would be some problems by using it.

She was still considering whether to stop Leo drinking the wine, but now, she didn't even have to think about it. Everything seemed to have happened as she wished.

What should she do?

She was scared again.

After Leo drank two cups of wine consecutively, he suddenly felt a little dizzy.

In his eyes, even Mary Ann who was seated opposite him had become quite a bit more gorgeous.

How strange, how could there be such a feeling?

Leo pinched the center of his brows.

It must be because he was in a terrible mood that such a reaction occurred.

"Mary!" The man opened his mouth, his voice inexplicably hoarse.

"En!" As if struck by lightning, Mary looked up at him with incomparable focus: "What's wrong?"

"I'm probably drunk. I will go upstairs and rest first, you can eat slowly!" At this moment, Leo was not sure why his body reacted like that. He felt that he was in too much of a hurry to drink which make him feel dizzy..

"Oh, let me help you up!" However, Mary was well aware that he might have a reaction. Why so fast, I thought it would come effect at least a few hours.

"No need, you can eat. I'll go by myself and lie down for a while!" Leo was still rational, when he heard that she wanted to help him up the stairs, he immediately rejected to her suggestion.

Mary could only stand at the side of the table and look at the man's tall body. He was walking a little shakily, and she bit her lower lip.

"Leo, be careful!" Mary was still very worried about him going upstairs.

Leo acknowledged, but the moment he reached the first staircase, he leaned against the wall, it seemed that he couldn't walk anymore.
