A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 332

Chapter 332 Won’t Let Go of Her

Amelie hurriedly tried to break free.

Suddenly, she was lowered down. She had been placed in a car seat.

She swiftly darted out of Leo’s arms and clung tight to the seat.

Bang.

The door gently closed.

The next thing she knew, he was getting in the driver’s seat.

Then, the car started.

That was all done in the space of a few seconds.

“Hey!” she called out, confused by his actions.

However, she saw him tap and swipe at the car navigation system to enter the address of her home in Halport.

Was he… driving her home?

She stared at him in shock.

“It has been a long time since I’ve seen Bria. I want to visit her,” he said.

He said that with a straight face.

If her memory was right, those two had just met a while ago.

Leo drove quickly, and in a few minutes, they were already on the highway.

It was already too late for her to say anything.

It was nearly midnight by the time they arrived at her home.

Steven was not home yet.

As Toby dragged her away without giving her time to prepare, Amelie had to ask her neighbor, Mrs. Levine, to babysit Bria.

When the two of them arrived, Bria was fast asleep in Mrs. Levine’s home.

Amelie repeatedly apologized for how late it was while Leo walked over to tenderly lift Bria into his arms.

Even so, she was awoken by the shift. She stared at Leo while drowsily rubbing her eyes.

He looked down at her and kissed her on the forehead.

Her lips spread into a wide grin. “Dada.”

She then wormed into his embrace, shuffling around to find a comfortable spot before going back to sleep.

Mrs. Levine watched their interaction with wide eyes and gave Amelie a nudge. “The child’s father is a great man. He’s handsome and knows how to take care of kids.”

That rendered Amelie speechless.

When they headed back to her home, he acted as though he was only there because he wanted to see Bria.

He stayed in Bria’s room the entire time, never once leaving it.

When Amelie walked past, she spotted him carefully wiping Bria’s face with a wet cloth.

His hands were so cautious, and his eyes were solemn. The usual stern look on his face was tinged with the softness of a kind father.

She was taken aback by the sight. After leaving a set of new sleepwear from her father on the couch, she headed back to her room.

She had been exhausted on the car ride over, but she did not dare fall asleep since Leo was there.

Now that she was back in her domain, such worries were unnecessary.

She stretched and took off her clothes before heading into the bathroom.

After a nice shower, she went to bed and soon fell asleep.

She woke up at dawn when her alarm rang.

After Steven’s departure, she was now in charge of making Bria breakfast.

Thus, she got up and headed to the kitchen.

She immediately spotted the shadow of a man in the kitchen.

“Dad,” she called out, thinking her father had returned.

The man turned around to face her.

It was actually Leo dressed in Steven’s sleepwear.

She was startled.

It was only then that she recalled he had driven her home last night.

She had left her father’s sleepwear on the couch as a precaution. Based on what she knew of him, she thought he would have gone home.

He did not, however.

She knew that he never liked sleeping anywhere apart from his own bed. Unless he had no choice, he would always head home.

This…

Leo frowned when he heard her call “Dad”. His gaze swept past her figure in a meaningful manner.

There was something different about his gaze today. Every second of being looked at made her feel as if her clothes might vanish.

The look in his eyes was so impressionable that she found it hard to breathe.

She could not avoid recalling their hug from yesterday and instinctively retreated far away from him.

He did not call her out on it though. “Breakfast will be ready in ten minutes.”
