Supreme Mars novel Chapter 121

It was already 10 o’clock when Leo arrived home. Emilia was already asleep.

Leo crept up to bed to sleep gingerly.

Leo thought Lydia had fallen asleep. To his surprise, he heard Lydia’s calm voice in the dark.

“A whiff of women’s perfume is on your body.”

Leo was astonished. How could it be? He had taken a bath.

However, he also caught a whiff of perfume as he sniffed his body.

It must be gotten when he lifted Irene.

Leo was flurried and hastily explained it to Lydia, “Lydia, I haven’t done….”

“No need to explain.”

Lydia answered with a calm voice still, “I believe in you.”

After going through the conflicts with Peter, Lydia gained a sense of security from Leo. As long as he was present, Emilia and she would not be hurt.

But it perplexed Leo. Since she did not suspect him of cheating, what did she mean?

After a moment’s silence, Lydia said, “It is usual for you, an excellent man, to be surrounded by a bevy of young girls. For you, it is a good thing.”

Leo felt weird. When an ordinary woman caught a whiff of another woman’s perfume on her husband’s body, she would definitely kick up a fuss.

“Leo, you should know that the road ahead will be full of challenges.”

Lydia continued with a calm voice, “So you need to be stronger and stronger. I expect that one day I can be totally without scruple to declare that we are married to the public. Only by then, you can say you get me as your wife.”

For an instant, Leo was amazed. Lydia was indeed a superwoman. Her thoughts were not like ordinary women’s.

She did not throw tantrums; she even did not mind it at all. She knew how to be a true wife.

Leo shook his head and smiled, “Marie had told me all about it. Your family lives in Valenham, and my father-in-law was also looking for me. As long as I make my father-in-law acknowledge me, I can make you become my wife.”

“But it is difficult.” Lydia shook her head and said.

“It will be successful.”

Leo smiled weakly and said with strong confidence, “When you have prepared, I shall propose marriage to my father-in-law.”

Without speaking, Lydia turned her back on Leo.

“I hope so.”

She muttered in a voice that could only be heard by her.

The next morning, when the first glimmer of dawn arrived, Leo felt a small hand was poking his face. He soon opened his eyes.

For a split second, a small cute face came into view. Emilia enjoyed herself playing his face.

Emilia’s smiley face immediately stiffened as she saw Leo wake up. She drew back her little hand and looked at Leo with a guilty conscience.

Leo looked at Lydia, who was still in her sleep, and shushed Emilia, “Hush, don’t wake mom.”

Emilia nodded cooperatively and made the same gesture, “Hush....”

Leo laughed. To have a lovely daughter like Emilia was indeed the happiest thing in the world.

“Come here, let’s wash up.”

Leo scooped Emilia up in his arms and looked back to see Lydia who was sleeping beside him. After Leo made sure he did not wake Lydia, he crept up to go downstairs.

As soon as Leo closed the door, Lydia opened her eyes instantly. Her gorgeous face raised a long-lost smile.

Lydia did not take her time getting downstairs until Leo made a hearty breakfast. She looked beautiful, even without makeup.

“It’s time to have breakfast.” Leo said to Lydia, smiling.

Lydia took her seat and ate porridge, savoring every mouthful.

“Thank you.”

Suddenly she looked up and said unto Leo.

“For what?” Leo was surprised.

“Thank you for your breakfast.”
