Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 

Lucy had indeed never thought about it before, but she did not care about Matthew’s background. 

If he could afford to live in this house, he must not be a gambling 

addict or a thug. 

As for whether he was a freeloader, she had yet to find out. 

Ignoring Melanie’s voice on the other end, Lucy started getting lost in thought. 

Her lack of response made Melanie so angry she yelled, “Lucy, you’d better come back right now and bring that man with you. If you don’t come back, you’ll be sorry!” 

Lucy frowned at Melanie’s threat and let out a sigh. 

She knew that it was just an empty threat, but whenever her family pulled such tricks, they would succeed in frightening her. 

After hanging up, Lucy leaned on the sofa tiredly. She did not even 

notice Matthew come in. 

“What’s wrong?” Lucy was alerted by the deep voice ringing in her ears. She turned to look at the handsome man staring at her with a hand in his pocket. 

Lucy forced a miserable smile. “You have to come with me to my house. My mother will probably want to interrogate you. I hope you 

won’t get too mad about it.” 

Matthew gave her a small smile. “What will happen if I get mad?” 

She urged him, “Go change. There’s no need to drive an expensive 

car.”

She was worried that her mother would ask Matthew for an unjust amount of money if they went over in an expensive car. 

Lucy would be too embarrassed to face Matthew if her mother did that. 

Soon after, she brought Matthew to her home. As soon as they walked in, Melanie started cursing at her. 

“Lucy, I see you still have the guts to come back. Marriage is at serious matter. How could you not tell your parents you got married? What if you’re being deceived?” 

Although Lucy had told herself not to be affected by Melanie, she was still hurt to hear those words. 

“Hello, Mrs. Quinn,” Matthew greeted the woman coldly even though. he was addressing his mother–in–law. 

Melanie glared at the man in front of her and questioned, “Who are you? Why did you kidnap my daughter? Look at you pretending to be something you’re not. I bet you rented those clothes.” 

Glancing outside, she gave a snort. “I bet your car is rented too. How dare a freeloader like you marry my daughter? You must be in it for the money. I’ll give you ten grand, so leave my daughter right now!” 

Melanie grabbed the wad of cash next to her and threw it at Matthew. 

The man’s gaze grew more intense as he stared at Melanie. He jeeringly took out a check for a hundred thousand dollars and threw it at her face, saying, “Is a hundred thousand dollars enough to marry your daughter?”
