Only you in my love novel Chapter 730

It had been a long time since Leon heard Michelle say his name in such a sweet voice.

The light that blew out in his amber eyes slowly came back to life as his lips arced into a joyous smile.

At that moment, he wanted to lock her into a tight embrace, but he was afraid he might scare her away again.

After a second of hesitation, he took a small step back and shook the bag he was holding in front of her.

"Michelle, this is the perfume I promised to give you. I haven't had the chance to give it to you lately, and if I put it aside again, it will become moldy," Leon said frankly.

Michelle took the bag and looked at him. "Will the perfume be moldy?"

Seeing her cute stunned look paired with her bright eyes made Leon chuckle a little bit.

He reached out to touch her forehead, but Michelle was quick to step back and dodge it.

Suddenly, he didn't know what to do with his hand hanging in the air.

It was as though the cold evening wind froze his fingers as he felt his hand become pale.

One after the other, many people started arriving at the gate of the theater. They were within earshot of both Leon and Michelle, so they could still hear their light chatters.

All the while, both of them felt awkward standing near each other that all they could do was look at each other in silence.

Michelle broke their stare and hurriedly lowered her eyes. She held the bag containing the perfume and dug her fingers in it.

Then slowly, Leon withdrew his hand away from her.

The sweet greeting he had received earlier turned out to be nothing more than an illusion. Now, he was faced with the reality in which there existed a wall separating them.

The light that once shone in his amber eyes started to dim and lose its glimmer.

"It's cold out here. Let's go inside," Leon said softly, trying to hide the sad feeling growing in him.

"Oh, okay." Michelle followed him obediently.

As expected, it wasn't as cold as outside when they entered the theater.

The two of them walked to the front row and sat in the best seats. Bryant had arrived before them. When he saw Michelle, he looked a little surprised.

Valerie gave them one ticket each, apart from Leon, who received two. She had asked him to invite Michelle to watch the performance.

Her cousin's action perplexed Bryant even more.

She liked Leon, but she wasn't actively pursuing him. Instead, she was claiming to be his friend and was even helping him with her love troubles with Michelle.

It wasn't like her cousin to do something like that. The Valerie he knew would not give up but would fight for it instead.

'Has her temper softened these past four years?' Bryant contemplated.

"Here you are." Bryant nodded and smiled.

"Hi, Bryant," Michelle greeted.

"Michelle, take a seat." Leon sat next to Bryant and let Michelle sit next to him. "Call him by his full name. You two are not familiar with each other."

Michelle didn't understand what Leon was trying to say.

With a faint smile, Bryant looked at Leon. He understood his intention in what he had said and played along. "Yes, just call me by my full name."

Michelle shook her head and mumbled, "But it's not polite to call you by your full name."

"Then call me Mr. Feng." He turned his attention to Leon. "By the way, Wynn has something to deal with today, so he won't be able to come."

"I see." Leon kind of expected it.

After all, Wynn didn't like Valerie, so it made sense that he wouldn't want to come.

"Aww...Wynn's not coming." A look of pity took over Michelle's face. She placed the bag between her legs and held both sides of the bag, carefully protecting it from falling.

It contained the perfume that Leon had given her.

'I'll finally be able to smell like Leon, '

she thought to herself and snickered.

When Leon looked at her, she caught her smiling. He was glad that she had taken a liking to the perfume he had given her and considered giving her more in the future.

Suddenly, the theater hall turned pitch black.

A single spotlight shone on the stage, which signaled the start of the performance.

However, Michelle didn't pay much attention to the stage. But rather, her focus was on Leon. From time to time, she would steal a glance at him every time the light on the stage reflected on his face.

She didn't dare look at him openly. All she could do was sit still nervously, afraid that Leon would find out if she moved a little.
