It was another sunny day.
In the office, Anthea's face was full of smiles, and gradually, it became bright.
She hadn't seen Leonardo for six years!
After Anthea left, they had been keeping in touch with each other all the time. But in the later years, she often went to many remote and small countries where had only poor signals. Because of this, it was difficult to make phone calls. Therefore, they began communicating with e-mails.
After she returned home, Leonardo was on a business trip and didn't come back until this day.
The two good friends finally met after so many years' parting.
When she saw Leonardo, she could not believe it was him.
The playboy who used to wear fashion was wearing suits at the moment. His yellow hair was dyed dark brown, and he exuded a strange but mature temperament.
The two looked at each other for a long time. Leonardo frowned, "Anthea, why did you pine away so much?"
"Really? It may be that the food outside doesn't suit my taste." Anthea shrugged, "Leonardo, I heard that you are now working in a pharmaceutical institute. Rather high ranking. Have a lot of people under your command!"
Leonardo nodded and said, "Well, I don't want to be a doctor. With the same intention to save people, others would be healing and I might be killing. So I'd better work on producing medicine to benefit the world!"
"That's good!" Anthea agreed.
Leonardo was forced by his family to study in the medical college. If he really became a doctor, it would be a shocking news. Being a researcher of drugs was very suitable for him.
"My father invested in the institute!" Leonardo added.
Anthea was speechless. That was rich and willful!
Anthea asked with a smile, "Do you need me to go to the internet bar with you after work? Gamer!"
Leonardo shook his head, "I quitted video games long ago."
Anthea was stunned. She looked at him seriously for a long time and said, "Leonardo, you really matured!"
Leonardo smiled faintly.
Anthea blinked her eyes, "Well, most men become
mature because of women. You the same?"
Leonardo's face stiffened obviously.
Anthea was surprised. It seemed Leonardo had his story!
She deliberately pondered for a while and said slowly, "If I remember correctly, you invited a girl you met in games to a date when we were at school!"
"Damn! How many times have I said that? It was that girl asked me out!" Leonardo suddenly jumped up and got excited, "I never flirt with girls on my own initiative. It was girls that took the first step. And that girl is not my cup of tea. I didn't even touch her hand!"
Anthea sniggered.
Well, still the Leonardo!
The two made some noise and felt that they had returned to their better days. Leonardo suddenly said, "Anthea, when I came here, I seemed to see the scout who was always following Adam Chin. Is he in hospital?"
"Yes, he need to perform a minor operation." Anthea nodded.
Leonardo paused for a while before asking, "Anthea, do you still miss him?"
Anthea pulled back her gaze and replied in a low voice, "...Not anymore."
Leonardo sighed.
How should an affection couple suddenly break up.
Leonardo didn't know the exact reason. Anthea didn't tell him, but she asked him to keep the secret of the child. On the night the two broke up, Adam did not only went to find Emerson Chiang, but also him.
He had promised Anthea, so he could only kept his mouth shut.
Anthea's cell phone rang at this time. She glanced at it and picked it up with a smile. "Hello, Victor, have you arrived at the hospital?"
After hearing something, she replied, "Okay, I'll pick you up at the door ten minutes later!"
After she hung up, Leonardo raised his eyebrows. "Old Professor Zanon's son?"
"Yes!" Anthea nodded.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
