Only you in my love novel Chapter 814

Leon followed to Michelle's instructions carefully, careful not to mess up.

It took them over two hours to cook all six dishes.

It was already nine o'clock when they were done eating dinner. Patting her full stomach, Michelle sighed happily and stood up to wash the dishes. However, Leon stopped her; he had a housekeeper who came daily, so there was no need for Michelle to wash the dishes.

Just as Michelle was about to protest, her phone started ringing. Elaine was calling.

"Michelle, did something happen? Why aren't you home yet?"

Michelle's heart skipped a beat. Only now did she realize how late it was.

She had told her parents that she would go straight home after her business trip. Three hours had passed her unwittingly, and she was five kilometers away from home.

"Oh, my gosh!" Michelle scrambled to look for her bag. Leon, unaware of who was on the phone, saw the anxious look on her face. "What's wrong?" he asked.

Elaine overheard him speaking. "Michelle, are you with a colleague? It sounds like a man."

The last sentence sounded like a whisper. To Michelle, Elaine seemed to have turned around and talked to someone else in the room.

She knew there was no one else at home, other than Adams.

Knowing that her parents were gossiping about her, Michelle explained hurriedly, "I'm with Leon. He's going to drive me home."

"Oh, it's just Leon." Elaine sounded a little disappointed.

Michelle didn't dare say anything more. "Okay, bye, Mom. We'll be leaving in a bit."

"Okay, drive safe—" But before Elaine could finish her sentence, Michelle had already dropped the call. "This child..." she muttered to herself.

After hanging up the phone, Michelle took a deep breath. She felt as though she'd narrowly escaped death.

Even Leon understood what had just happened.

"Let's go," he said, standing up. "I'll take you home. Don't forget to give me those things you promised."

"Okay."

Without any detours, Leon drove her home. Waiting for them was a grand feast.

Elaine warmly invited Leon in, urging him to have dinner with them. Adams shook his hand, thanking him for driving his daughter home.

Leon smiled and said, "It is fit that I drive her home."

But Michelle's parents didn't understand what Leon meant.

Leon warily eyed the delicious food laid out on the table. He was already full.

"Leon?" Noticing his hesitation, Michelle turned to her parents and started to explain. "Dad, Mom, Leon already ate dinner. I'm afraid he'll burst if he takes another bite! Anyway, I need to get some things upstairs for him; then he'll go home.

Leon, come help me get them." She batted her eyelashes at him innocently.

Leon excused himself and followed Michelle upstairs.

When the two were out of earshot, Elaine turned to her husband and frowned. "They're not kids anymore. Isn't it appropriate to leave the two of them in Mimi's room alone?"

Seeing his wife was quite bothered by this matter, Adams came up with a solution. "I'll go wash some fruits and you'll bring them upstairs."

"Okay, sounds like a plan." Elaine nodded.

On the second floor, Leon stepped into Michelle's room.

It wasn't his first time there, but it was his first time to have entered her room as her boyfriend. And he felt different this time.

When his eyes landed on his bed sheets on Michelle's bed, he felt all hot and bothered.

"Michelle..." Leon called. When she turned to look at him, he jutted his chin out at the direction of the bed, winking at her mischievously.

She quickly realized she hadn't removed the bed sheets.
