Chapter 72
Leo threw her into the passenger seat grumpily, reached out to fasten her seat belt, and said in a
harsh tone, “What’s wrong with you? You sounded so imposing on the phone, but in the blink of an eye, you were so drunk. Why haven’t I seen you so decadent before?”
When he bent down to unbuckle her seat belt, they were very close to each other.
Megan sobered up a little and pushed him away slightly. “Don’t get so close to me.”
She pushed him back half a step. Leo sneered and crossed his arms. Looking at her hand touching the seat belt for a long time, he couldn’t help laughing at her. “Can you do it?”
Megan was stunned for a moment, then let go of the seat belt, held the door, and was about to get
out.
However, she couldn’t stand straight at all and almost fell. Leo helped her up, and she fell back heavily.
The bartender chased after her in a hurry. “Mr. Eyes! This lady’s phone is left at the bar counter!”
Leo took it and thanked her. Then he asked, “Did she come alone today?”
“Yes,” the bartender said. “She drinks when she comes and doesn’t talk. It seems that she is
heartbroken.”
“Heartbroken?”
“Well, before you came, she was crying sadly and kept saying… ‘I miss you so much”.”
When Leo heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up unnaturally.
Looking back, he saw that there were still tears at the corners of her eyes. She looked very depressed, and her eyes were half-closed.
“What else did she say?”
“I didn’t hear anything else clearly. It sounded like she was saying, ‘Why didn’t you come to see me’ and… Oh, and ‘you’re so cruel’.”
Leo held her phone in his hand and played with it gently. When he looked at her, there was a smile in his eyes. “Is there anything else?”
“I really can’t hear anything else.”
Leo didn’t pursue the matter further. He was already very satisfied. “Thank you. I’ll pay for how much she spent today.”
After paying the bill, he kindly gave the bartender more tips. The bartender was overjoyed. “Thank
you, Mr. Eyes!”
Leo was still a little resistant to this name. He waved his hand and asked the bartender to go back.
He walked over, grabbed her hand, and unlocked the phone with her fingerprint.
The little hand in his palm was slender and soft. He rubbed it a few times before letting go.
All these years, she had never touched his phone, and Leo was not interested in a secretary’s phone.
However, he really wanted to see why his caller ID was Eyes Mayor.
Then what was Paul?
Nose Paul?
He was disappointed.
Except for him, the rest of the people all had formal names.
Even Vada was not called “best friend” or “sis”. She was just a “Vada”.
Only his was special.
He walked over and gently woke her up. “Why did you call me Eyes Mayor?”
He woke her up. Megan frowned in pain and her stomach churned. “What?”
“I’m asking you, why did you note me with this name?”
He raised her phone in front of her so that she could see her contact list clearly.
It seemed that Megan was trying her best to identify it, and then she looked at him.
To be exact, she was looking into his eyes.
At first, her eyes were hazy, but later, they became a little ethereal, as if she was going to see through his soul. “Your eyes…”
“What’s wrong with my eyes?”
“Beep, beep, beep…”
There were many cars coming and going in front of the bar. His car had been parked in the same place for a long time, and there was a long line of traffic jams behind him, so they pressed the horn to urge him.
Leo threw her phone back into her arms, tied her up with a seat belt, and then drove away.
