Her Tears Are His Weakness novel Chapter 188

Samantha and Leonardo just happened to run into Ryan and his friends, who were bantering loudly. "We're drinking till we're totally wasted tonight."

Ryan thumped his chest, looking generous. "That's right. It's your birthday today, so I'm paying. Buy whatever you want."

Someone chimed in. "Since Mr. Shaw has said so, we'd better grab the most expensive item."

Ryan was unfazed. "Go ahead. Do you think I'm counting pennies?"

The group made their way inside, being loud and rowdy. "You're so generous, Mr. Shaw. As long as we're with you, we're eating like kings."

The commotion caught Samantha's attention from way over there, and her first instinct was to quickly distance herself from Leonardo. "Ryan is here. He probably doesn't know about our relationship yet, so we can't let him find out."

The agreement was clear. No one else was supposed to know about this except them.

Their relationship was best kept secret. The acting part was the only time it was out in the open.

Samantha figured this was her safety net. After all, she went from being single to getting married. If they divorced after one year, she had to go on living normally.

Leonardo protested, "Since Yvette already knows about it, how could Ryan not know?"

Samantha didn't even explain and walked ahead of him. "Let's see how it goes first."

With Leonardo pushing the cart, Samantha had it easy and could just walk away.

Ryan spotted Samantha right away and nearly jumped up, waving at her. "Samantha!"

It felt like she had only noticed him and smiled because of his exaggerated gestures. "Hello. What a coincidence."

He hobbled over to Samantha. His leg had almost healed, and he could run surprisingly fast without crutches. "What are you doing here? Are you shopping as well?"

Samantha nodded.

Ryan asked, "But you need a membership to enter the grocery store. Did you sign up too?"

He fixed his curious gaze on Samantha. After all, the grocery store had pretty strict membership requirements.

Samantha awkwardly scratched her head. "I was curious, so I had someone online bring me in to check this place out."

Samantha couldn't care less about it. After all, it was Ryan's decision since it was his body.

She looked over her shoulder and spotted Leonardo coming closer. "Alright. I've got dinner plans with friends later. I need to head out."

Ryan watched Samantha walk away, feeling a little bummed out. He shouted, "Can I come with you next time? It's on me!"

Samantha was long gone and didn't bother to reply.

Ryan's friends were laughing and making fun of him from the sidelines. "So, Mr. Shaw is into women like her? You've got good taste."

He reached out and slapped the ones running their mouths. "Cut it out."

He was goofing around with his friends as they walked onward. As he looked up, he spotted Leonardo, looking cold and distant. "What brings you here, Leonardo?"

Leonardo's expression turned grim. "Get out of my sight."

Ryan was dumbfounded. What did he do wrong? Did Leonardo wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?
