“Why are you crying?”
Looking at Lydia’s trembling shoulders and hearing her soft cry, Leo was stunned immediately.
Lydia couldn’t sleep but kept tossing and turning in bed. So did Leo. He felt it was not good to sleep without saying anything.
So he apologized to her. To his surprise, Lydia cried directly.
In his impression, Lydia rarely cried. She cried only when he came back from the army and before they separated in the past. Why did she cry today?
“Don’t cry, please!”
Leo was thrown into confusion immediately and had a headache.
He was capable of fighting the enemies on the battlefield. Whereas, it’s a little difficult for him to coax a woman to stop crying.
It took a long time for him to find a solution. However, in the end, he could only say “Don’t cry”.
Lydia suddenly turned over. Her tears had long been wiped dry. She looked sulky, “I didn’t cry. Why did you say sorry to me just now? Did you do something wrong to me!”
Women tend to hold their grudges. Leo made her nervous for fearing that Kate would do anything to him. Now Leo came back, she would “scare” him.
After hearing Lydia’s words, Leo’s face turned pale immediately. He hurriedly explained, “I didn’t. I just came to ask Kate a few questions.”
“Really?”
Lydia was still expressionless.
“Absolutely true!”
Leo was very anxious. He was thinking about bounding Kate to help clarify.
Leo was about to go on explaining when a gust of fragrance came. Lydia stretched out a hand and covered Leo’s mouth.
Leo immediately widened his eyes and took Lydia’s hand, “Lydia, you...”
“I know that you went to visit her because you were worried about me. I’m imagining things.”
Lydia looked at Leo softly and said, “I’m sorry.”
Leo was stunned for a long time. He finally breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that Lydia was no longer angry, “That’s good. I thought you misunderstood me.”
Lydia immediately chuckled and said, “Oh you fool, I’m just bluffing. How could you betray me?”
Although the light in the room was dark and the lights were not turned on, Leo still saw Lydia’s gorgeous smile. He was immediately entranced by it and looked straight at Lydia.
“Lydia, you look gorgeous when you smile.”
He said in a daze.
When Lydia heard this remark, she was surprised and deepened her smile, “You just got that?”
Hearing that, Leo also smiled with embarrassment, “You’re always beautiful. You’re more beautiful when you smile.”
Lydia fell into silence. She sat up from the bed and looked at the moon in the sky.
“What’s up?” Leo also sat up.
“Nothing much. I just feel how time flies. The Thanksgiving Day is coming soon.”
Lydia looked at the round moon and said.
“Yes, Thanksgiving Day is coming soon.”
For some reason, Leo was also filled with emotion.
Thanksgiving Day was a time for families to get together and taste the roast turkey. Lydia at least had a home, while he didn’t even know who his biological parents were.
However, Leo still misunderstood Lydia’s meaning.
She didn’t miss the family that had cast a shadow on her childhood at all. Whereas, after she married, she had a husband, a daughter and her own home. Her hatred for her original family had been reduced.
More importantly, after being with Leo, she laughed a lot more.
Meeting Leo was like a tortuous dream.
