Leo leaned on a pillar in the room, replied drowsily:” Well, someone has to be responsible for me being kissed, isn’t it?”
Susie flushed; it was also her first kiss.
But what else could she have done given that was the final step of a wedding? And who knew that Leo was holding so tight to it that she had to be, to quote Leo, responsible?
“Leo, that was my only choice, you can take revenge if you want to.” Susie explained, barely held back her anger.
“Revenge? What is it? Is it me kissing you? No can do, girl.”
How can someone be so shameless like this? As much as Susie was reluctant, there was nothing she could do to Leo’s gloating but tolerate.
Leo continued as he noticed that the wild kitty was a bit pissed:”I know your family is going through financial crisis, otherwise you wouldn’t rush this marriage with Xie’s family. Susie, whatever they can do for you, I can do it better. I dare not say that I’m excellent, but I can say I excel Danny in any aspects you can think of.”
“You are willing to help us?”
It surprised Susie that Leo knew all about it. She left her family very young thus she had never really bonded with her parents and sisters, but she loved her granny, who’s also worried about the crisis they’re under. Hadn’t her granny come down with illness, she wouldn’t make such a sacrifice marrying Danny to help her family. It was just not her.
Leo nodded.
“What’s your demand, then?”
“Be my wife. This wedding was a deception, let’s make it real.” Leo replied in no time.
“For how long?”
