Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123 No Future 

“Leonard, have you and my uncle had dealings before? What do you know?” I asked tentatively, wanting to see if he’d be honest with me. 

Mr. Harmon Senior said Leonard had been investigating my father’s death for years, and even Lily mentioned the same thing. How could he have found nothing? 

But if he uncovered nothing, why was he so hostile toward Keenan?” 

I was guessing he actually found some leads, but nothing concrete to pursue legal action. Perhaps he was trying to keep this from me because he didn’t want me to worry. 

Leonard helped me lie back down while he was expressionless, 

“He didn’t even show up to our wedding. He’s never cared about you. Now he comes around, acting like he was concerned? I’m pretty sure he’s up to something. 

“The both of you haven’t been in touch for years, and things are better that way. He’s a scheming person.” 

Leonard only told me to rest well, and he didn’t take the bait at all. I wanted to press him further, but he quickly changed the topic. 

“The police found your necklace at the scene. The diamond’s fine. I’ll have a new necklace made for you.” 

“You can’t lose the necklace; it’s a gift from me for you 

“Or was it a tool for you to spy on me?” I asked, tilting my head, conflicted about the situation. 

I didn’t like being spied on, even if it was Leonard who was spying on me 

But, if it weren’t for the necklace he gifted me, they might not have found me so quickly. 

Who knew, by the time he had found me without the GPS tracker in the necklace, I could have been dead or dealing with another cancer relapse. 

Leonard’s face flushed red, and he awkwardly pretended to peel an apple. 

“You always talk about divorcing me, and yet these things keep happening. I was just worried about you. 

“This time, the new necklace won’t have a tracker. But can you at least wear a smartwatch? Something with a GPS, just in case you ever need help.” 

Watching him struggling to peel the apple, I sighed and took the knife from his hand, quickly peeling the apple. 

“Why don’t you get me an Apple Watch? I can play with it when I get bored.” 

I handed him the apple that I finished slicing. He took a big bite. 

“Sure. Or, you could just stick with me forever. We’ll never be apart.” 

His gaze burned into mine, filled with emotions that I was familiar with. 

Just as I tried to look away, he grabbed my chin. 

“Eva, I’m never gonna divorce you, 

I know that I can’t move on from you. You’re the one I loved all along. 

I 

“I’ve made so many mistakes. I thought I needed to punish you when you left me. But I was wrong. I was completely wrong.” 

Chap 120 No Future 

“When you were kidnapped, I nearly lost my mind. I realized I can’t live without you. Please give me one more chance. 

“Can we please stay together? It’ll be just us, forever.” 

He spoke so quickly, desperately trying to convince me
