"Three hundred million." The computer screen went dark in front of her eyes, and she could see his figure behind her in the reflection. She then said directly, "On the day when we went out to the sea, I heard you ask someone to transfer 300 million dollars to your account."
Leo smiled and replied, "I never knew you were so proficient in languages."
"Leo, Hall told us that the potential value of that diamond mine is no less than 10 billion dollars. I want to know if you have conspired with Hall to raise the price. If you didn't, then why have you only prepared 300 million dollars?"
"I also want to know." Leo's voice slowly approached her as he leaned over, and his hands also slipped down from her shoulders, and finally, he embraced her into his arms. His lips were slightly raised and were close to her cheeks, "Why do you love Joseph so much? Why can't you treat me like that? Answer me! Answer me!"
"You are as important to me as Joseph is in my heart." Irish straightened her body, did not resist him, and continued, "You are my friend, so I don't want you to get hurt. I know you have harbored a grudge for many years against him, but I believe that you still care for each other, so why do you have to fight with each other so relentlessly?"
Leo stared at her face silently.
"Joseph doesn't know this, and I don't mention it to him. But I want to hear the truth from you." Irish turned to him and looked in his eyes directly.
Leo showed a faint smile and tapped her shoulders gently, "You want to know the truth? Really? It might hurt you. Are you sure you want to know the story behind it?" Her eyes looked firmly at him while the smile on his face suddenly widened, then he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Irish did not expect this and widened her eyes at him. She began to resist, but Leo suddenly lifted her out of the chair and walked toward the bedroom. He put her on the bed and pressed himself against her body, ignoring her struggle.
"Leo..."
But soon, he gagged her with his kiss, and he even opened her mouth the moment she called to him. He enjoyed the sweetness of her lips, holding her resisting hands over her head and pressing down on her with his strong body. He turned even ruder.
After a few minutes, Leo loosened his grip in her arms. He raised his hand and grasped her chin tightly, saying, "You'd better not be so smart. Otherwise, I will kill you!" Leo threatened her.
"Okay. You can just do it." Irish was not afraid at all now. Actually, if someone wanted to be cruel, he was not so scary. However, if he pretended to be kind and warm-hearted, he would be more difficult to deal with. She walked out of the bedroom quickly and returned with a knife in her hand. She threw it into Leo's bosom and pointed at her breast, "You can just stab here."
Leo quickly threw the knife away and frowned at her, shouting, "Are you mad?"
"You got it!" Irish shouted back, "I feel disgusting now that you've touched me."
"You..." Leo didn't realize that she would answer in this way. Keeping silent for a while, his unhappiness disappeared suddenly, and he couldn't help laughing, "You won! You love him that much?"
Irish was relieved that he was not as angry as before and said to him seriously, "I don't care how you battle with Joseph, as long as your lives are not involved. You can't fight him to death. At the same time, if Joseph means to try and kill you, I will not tolerate it either."
Leo looked at her, seeming to think of something.
They both kept silent. At this time, Irish's phone rang, and lightning flashed outside. Irish suddenly felt stressed without any reason.
She quickly walked to the living room and took her phone out of her bag. The ringing made her nervous. As she connected, another flash of lightning appeared outside the window. It rained heavily outside. She heard Belle's anxious voice.
She suddenly lost control, and the phone fell down on her foot. However, it didn't hurt, and only the anxious voice of Belle lingered in her mind.
Leo walked out to see what was happening, feeling strange about the silence. Seeing Irish standing there motionlessly, he felt surprised and walked towards her, pulling her, "What's wrong?"
After a long while, Irish looked at him with a pale face.
She trembled and said in a low voice, "Leo, something terrible has happened to Joseph."
Leo was astonished.
****
Cassie became suspicious, and it was all thanks to Roy.
He made her feel afraid of hanging out casually because he always showed up out of nowhere. Now she just went back home as soon as she got off work. She seldom went shopping and was afraid of being alone since she didn't want to meet him face to face.
It was the weekend again, and it was sunny. It always made her feel pleased to see the brilliant blue sky.
Some leaves got yellow, but most were still green and remained on their branches.
Fredrick had several days off, which was rare for him. Cassie had planned to have fun at Disneyland, so today, he accompanied her patiently. Cassie had longed to go to Disneyland, but at the time, Fredrick was abroad, so she just kept waiting for him.
She wanted to go with Fredrick. It was not because she was afraid of going alone, but she desired to clench Fredrick's fingers as they were full of excitement and shout, "I Love You" to him. It would be amazingly romantic.
When Cassie and Fredrick flew down the roller coaster at high speed, she held his hand and shouted, "I love you, Fredrick!"
The surrounding screams mainly drowned out her shouting, but Fredrick was so close to her that he must have heard it. However, he just held her fingers and didn't give her any response, let alone express his love to her.
