No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 55

The chilly and indifferent voice startled both Leo and Marie. They instantly raised their heads and then saw Lydia standing at the entrance with a hardened expression. Beside her was Emilia who looked like a porcelain doll.

It seemed that she had overheard the conversation between the two of them, so here face was like a storm cloud. Her eyes, in particular, shot out a chilling glint that made others flinch.

Marie lowered her head immediately. She let out a hollow laugh and changed the topic. "Lydia, you're back? Ah... Emilia!"

Marie quickly rushed over to Emilia as if she had discovered a new continent. She squatted down, pinched her face, and said with a smile, "I missed you so much! Emilia, did you miss me?"

"Yes..." Emilia's cheeks were as soft as clouds and were made into different shapes by Marie.

Coupled with her petite figure and exquisite features, it was very hard not to find her adorable.

Emilia took after her mother Lydia. It was easy to imagine how beautiful she would be when she grew up.

Lydia loosened up a little when she saw that her younger sister got on so well with Emilia.

After Marie played with Emilia for some time, she stroked her head and said gently, "Emilia, will you go play in the room for a while?"

"Okay." Emilia nodded docilely. She glanced at Leo with her big eyes and said worriedly, "But Mom has to promise me that you won't leave Dad."

Lydia quivered slightly, and Marie looked a little nervous as well.

Marie thought, "Emilia is five years old and more observant than you guys give her credit for. She must have heard the conversation between me and Leo just now. It's easy to tell that she loves him a lot, but I asked him to divorce Lydia. Although I did it for his own sake, it's still too cruel to put a kid through this."

After a moment of silence, a smile appeared on Lydia's face and she said, "Okay. I promise that I won't."

"Mommy is the best!" Once she gained the guarantee she needed, Emilia immediately beamed with joy and ran to play without any worries.

After Emilia left, only Leo, Lydia, and Marie were left in the living room. The atmosphere soon became awkward.

Lydia shot a glance at her young sister and asked her casually, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at college at this time of the day?"

A guilty look flashed across Marie's eyes and was caught by Leo by accident.

Unrest, anxiety, and regret were intertwined in her eyes. So, Leo decided to pay extra attention to her.

"Me? What else could it be? To see you, of course." Marie regained her composure and laughed heartily.

Unlike the stable Lydia, Marie was very outgoing and lively.

But there was no way that she could fool her sister.

She said lightly, "Every time you come here, nothing good happens. It's either you asking me for money or needing me to clean up your mess after causing some trouble. Marie, you are 22 years old. Can you please act a little more mature as an adult?"

Leo also took a few extra glances at Marie and did not expect that this girl was a troublemaker.

But Marie was not angered. On the contrary, she wrapped Lydia's arm intimately, stuck out her tongue, and said with a smile, "I only have one sister. If I don't look for your help, who else am I supposed to go to?"

Marie raised her hand and swore, "As God as my witness, I'm just here to see you, and nothing else. And if I lie, bad things will happen to..."

Before she could finish, Lydia covered her mouth. The icy smile on her face melted away as she said, "Stay here tonight."

"Thanks, Sis." Marie beamed but she did not forget Leo on the side. "Lydia, you've been busy the whole day and should start eating now. Leo has made a table of delicious dishes for you. I arrived here with bad timing, or I would have finished them all."

Lydia also saw the dishes and looked at Leo in surprise.

No matter what, a man who cooked could get extra points.
