Only you in my love novel Chapter 729

Leon was upset because Michelle was avoiding him.

They had been talking less and less, and even when they did, Michelle would no longer share anything interesting with him as she had done before. Even her good morning and good night greetings were gradually decreasing.

It wasn't until Valerie had told her something on the plane that he realized what was going on.

Michelle only treated Leon as her brother. That was why she was keeping her distance from him because she had sensed his feelings for her.

From time to time, Leon would wonder if his love forced her to leave him.

'Is it the same case with Valerie, who forced me to let her go at the cost of her life before?

Will Michelle do the same?'

He had learned his lesson from Valerie and didn't dare to act rashly, afraid of scaring Michelle away.

Because of that, Leon learned to step back and restrain himself from giving off signals. He also limited their daily contact.

He'd be willing to do all this as long as she didn't leave him.

Therefore, they contacted each other less frequently.

The Feng Group had been on the right track. Every day, Leon was very busy. Even though Bryant had already settled the company's affair, he still had to approve everything.

He came to Lexingport City on a mission and couldn't afford to slack off.

Aside from that, there were also some problems in C Island that he needed to go over. With all the work that had been piling up in front of him, he had no time to stop and rest.

However, thanks to Wynn's help, he finally had some time to rest.

Whenever he had time, Leon would pick up his phone to see if Michelle had contacted him.

But whenever they talked, their conversation was always brief and quick to end.

He scrolled up to their past conversations and saw that they were all long and substantial. They even sent voice messages to each other.

The difference between their past and present communication was very stark.

He sat back in his chair and looked up to the ceiling, accentuating his smooth neck and bulging Adam's apple.

With his slender fingers, he pinched his nose and opened his mouth to exhale a deep yawn.

Then, he heard someone knock on his office door.

"Come in," Leon said in a calm tone.

He closed his eyes and heard the door's hinges squeak, followed by light footsteps. He also smelled the strong aroma of coffee.

Leon thought it was his secretary. "Put it on the table and go out."

Valerie placed the coffee on top of his table and stared at Leon's tired face.

When he had come back from the Hot Spring Resort, Michelle only gave him a birthday cake as a present. Ever since then, Leon's mood grew gloomier with each day passing, rarely showing his genuine smile.

Whenever he was outside with other people, he would still smile in front of them. However, when he was alone, he didn't bother to force himself.

Valerie tried to distract him from his thoughts but to no avail. Regardless of she did, all he could think about was Michelle and wondering what she was doing.

Whenever he saw fried eggs cooked by others, he wouldn't like them.

Every time he saw strawberries, he wanted to buy them.

He even went to their strawberry base whenever he was free.

Valerie couldn't find the opportunity to be alone with him.

If things continued to stay like this, there would be no way for her to win his heart.

"Leon, it's me," Valerie said softly.
