A Bird in the Cage novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 Drop You Off

For some unknown reason, she wanted to trigger Ryan. Smiling at Leonardo, she stretched out her arm and greeted, “Nice to meet you!”

“You’re so beautiful, Catherine,” Leonardo praised her sincerely and shook her hand politely.

“Hey, what about me?” Jasmine teased.

“Of course, you’re beautiful too! I just don’t want to praise you so openly. Otherwise, Ryan might beat me up!”

“Take a seat. I’ll get nervous if you just stand there!” Leonardo gestured exaggeratedly to Catherine.

Catherine sat down with a smile. The chamomile

tea was already on the table, so Leonardo took the initiative and poured her a cup.

“I know I have a bad reputation. People call me a playboy, but the truth is that I just haven’t met the woman I truly love. When I met you at the wedding that day, I felt like I finally met the right one for me. Sorry for my straightforwardness, but I’d really like to date you. I called Jasmine out today so that she can introduce you to me, and I also wanted Ryan to be a witness to our relationship. As long as you agree to go out with me…”

“You can’t ask her out!” Before Leonardo could finish speaking, Ryan suddenly interrupted him, his tone harsh like a strict parent.

Ryan couldn’t hold it in anymore. What was Leonardo trying to do? Did he suddenly fall in love with her?

Who was the one who swore to see all the

beauties in the world? In the end, he succumbed to

that d*mn woman after she tried to seduce him.

After all, Leonardo was the third son of the Walker family. How could he behave like a homeless man who had never seen a woman before? It was. embarrassing.

Never did Leonardo expect that his brother would behave like that when it was the first time the former wanted to have a serious relationship with a woman. Didn’t he always want him to quit flirting with women?

“Why?” Leonardo asked carefully. Usually, he wouldn’t dare to question his opinions.

He didn’t want to be embarrassed in front of the woman he liked today.

“You’re not right for each other!”

Seeing his reaction, Catherine didn’t say a word, but she thought to herself, ‘Why is he so annoyed?’

Who was he to judge his brother’s relationship? If she hadn’t been in a contract relationship with him, she would have challenged him by dating his brother!

Out of embarrassment, Leonardo flushed. After being stunned for a while, he finally found his voice.

“But you always wanted me to get into a serious relationship…”

Ryan waved his hand to stop him, his expression gloomy.

Are you serious right now? Do you want to be engaged for life after seeing her just for once? Is that what you call being serious? How much do you know about her except for her pretty face?

Some women look beautiful, but they’re very scheming…”

“Ryan, Catherine is not that kind of person.” Jasmine frowned and retorted angrily.

“Are we even real brothers? You would have agreed if I were Robert, right? But no matter how great Robert is, no matter how much he looks like you, he’s not born from the same mother! You and I are! So why do you always pick on me?”

The question Leonardo threw at him made Ryan realize that he was being unreasonable. Even he himself couldn’t tell why he was so angry at his brother for pursuing Catherine.
