Mila was washing dishes in front of the pool. The water stream gurgled. Her white hands washed away the bubbles on the porcelain plate. Her long hair was simply tied behind her head by a leather rope, which was very neat and gentle. A strand of hair hung down from her earlobes, making her side face more lively.
The light came from the top of her head, shining softly and delicately on her neck.
At this moment, Leonardo felt that he was like a boat sailing in the dark, looking for a lighthouse.
Looking at this, he felt that his heart had calmed down.
He had never been so stable.
On the phone, his mother was still murmuring, "Son, you are going to be 30 soon! Though people say that you're an eligible bachelor, but now young men are more popular. After a few years, you will become a middle-aged man! I have selected several girls of different style for you. There must be one you like..."
"Leonardo, did you hear what I said?"
Not hearing his voice for a long time, his
mother asked impatiently.
Leonardo came to his senses.
Only now did he realize that he had been absent-minded all this time because of Mila.
Leonardo said to the phone in a low voice, "Mom, I'm busy now!"
Mrs. 8chain was speechless.
Who just said he was not busy?
Before his mother complained again, Leonardo had already hung up the phone.
Mila cleaned the last plate and then dried it with cloth and put it in the sterile cabinet. After doing all this, she stretched herself and twisted her waist around.
When she turned around, she saw Leonardo sitting at the table.
Mila's cheeks were slightly red.
Didn't he see all her actions just now?
Mila uncomfortably pulled her clothes down to cover her exposed waist.
Seeing him slightly raise his chin, she walked over and pulled out the chair opposite him.
Leonardo said, "Holly has already slept."
"I see!" Mila nodded.
Leonardo had changed into his home clothes, and his handsome facial features were very soft now. "The meal you cooked tonight is delicious. Thank you!" "You’re welcome!" Mila was a little embarrassed and smiled shyly like her daughter. "If you like, I can also cook tomorrow evening. But I can only cook few specialty dish. You can't be picky!"
"Yes." Leonardo agreed and then he called her, "Mila."
Mila's heart skipped a beat.
After he suddenly shouted in such a deep and intimate way, her heart began to beat fast.
Many people had called her like that, but when he called her Mila, there seemed to be countless inexplicable sentimentality in his voice.
Before she calmed down, he said again, "Let's get married?"
Leonardo almost blurted out, but he was not surprised, as if he had carefully considered this decision.
Mila's breathing suddenly became quiet.
Leonardo's fingers tapped on the table twice. He tried to find an excuse to persuade her. "Your relationship with Charley is fake, and you're single now. Holly needs to grow up in a complete family. She needs both Mom and Dad!"
"For her sake, I hope you can consider this carefully. I am serious!"
Mila slowly lowered her head.

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 😩...
