Date with Me, Sugar Mama novel Chapter 52

Viola's back stiffened, and she unconsciously took a look at the medical aisle, where Steven was staring out of the window. She did not know what he was thinking.

She pinched the phone and said, “Where did you hear the rumor? It's just that he's pestering me.”

“He came to you today, and the whole company knows.”

Leonard laughed on the other end of the phone without showing any particular emotion. “Relax, Steven is shameless, of course I know what's going on. Personally, I hate him, but I don't speak for you, and I have no interest in getting into your business. His position will indeed be a great advantage to us, as can be seen in this incident of the horse farm. Just stay alert and don’t make troubles.”

Viola was stunned, was Leonard showing her democracy?

“Yes, I won't let you down,” she whispered, pretending she was calm.

After hanging up the phone, Viola was confused about the meaning of Leonard.

From Steven's appearance to now, Leonard disliked him.

In this dialogue, however, the meaning was ambiguous. Did he mean that she could use Steven's feelings for the benefit of the Shaws Group?

“It's time for dinner. What would you like to eat? It's my treat.”

“There's a western restaurant near here that makes fantastic steaks, or Chinese food, if you like.”

Before she knew what happened to him, she would be able to use him without guilt or hesitation.

But now, how could she do that to someone who had the same experience as her?

If she did that, what was difference with the Sutton family?

“What did Leonard tell you?” Steven had long been used to her hedgehog-like posture and looked at her with folded arms.

Viola hung her eyes, expression could not be seen, “Mr. Chambers, who do you think you are? He didn't say anything. I'm tired of you and I don't want to be stuck with you anymore.”

Steven chuckled, not even showing a hint of inquiry.

He grabbed her waist and pressed her into his arms, caressing her back as if she were a frightened animal.

Steven kissed her through her hair, and then fell on her eyebrows, the tip of her nose, her side face, her ear...
