The Unbreakable Bond (Rosalind and Leonardo) novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153
Rosalind had never climbed seven floors in such high heels. After at while, she was panting and sweating.
“Come on, get on me. I’ll carry you!”
Leonardo pulled his collar, relaxed a little, and squatted down slightly to let Rosalind climb onto his back.
Looking up at the steps and then down at the high heels, Rosalind didn’t. refuse and let Leonardo carry her.
Leonardo exercised every day. Not only did he have a good figure, but he also had great strength. Carrying Rosalind on his back was not a big deal for him. Though he was climbing the staircases, he was like walking on flat ground, and they soon went to the seventh floor.
If Rosalind hadn’t noticed the sweat on Leonardo’s forehead, she would have thought that even if Leonardo carried her on his back, he was not tired at all.
When they arrived at the seventh floor, Leonardo put Rosalind down gently. Rosalind smoothed her suit, looked up at Leonardo, and said. sincerely, “Thank you!”
If it weren’t for Leonardo, she wouldn’t have arrived at the seventh floor so easily.
Leonardo just smiled and didn’t say anything.
They arrived at the door of Room 701 together. The door was closed and the window was dark. There should be a curtain hanging inside. Why would they draw the curtain in broad daylight? Was there no one at home?
Rosalind and Leonardo looked at each other in confusion.
Although Leonardo was confused, he knocked on the door first.
“Hello?
“Hello, anyone there?
“Didn’t those people just say that Gordon was at home? Why didn’t he respond then?” Leonard asked.

Rosalind frowned and looked at the closed door, confused.
Thinking of this, she approached the window and wanted to see if there was anyone inside through the gap.
However, just as Rosalind was peeping inside intently, she suddenly met. a pair of eyes inside the window staring at Rosalind closely, scaring her into screaming.
“Oh!”
Rosalind stepped back suddenly in fright. Fortunately, Leonardo quickly held her and prevented her from falling to the ground.
“What’s going on?” Leonardo asked worriedly.
“There’s… Someone!”
Rosalind pointed to the margin by the window that was not covered by the curtain and said tremblingly.
Leonardo looked in the direction of Rosalind’s finger and saw a pair of gloomy eyes staring at them intently.
Leonardo narrowed his eyes and looked at the man coldly. His voice was extremely cold.
“Who are you? What are you doing there?”
After Leonardo said this, the eyes at the window disappeared instantly. Then the door opened and an old man poked out his head.
“Who are you looking for?”
The old man’s hair was gray, his eyes were dim, and his voice was h oa rse. He seemed to be depressed. And it looked like he was around eighty years old, but his body did not look that old, which was a little weird.
“We’re looking for Gordon. Is he home?”
Leonardo pulled Rosalind behind him, looked at the person in front of them, and asked in a deep voice..
“Are you looking for me? Who are you? I don’t know you guys.”
Hearing this, Rosalind and Leonardo looked at each other in surprise.
“Are you Gordon?” Rosalind asked suspiciously.

Rosalind remembered that Gordon was only about sixty years old, about
her father’s age. But this old man was thin with gray hair. He must be about ninety. How could he be Gordon?
“Yes…” The old man, Gordon, nodded.
“Are you Gordon Rodney, the former vice president of Jansen Group?”
Rosalind still didn’t believe it and asked again.
“How do you know? Who are you?”
Gordon looked at Rosalind and Leonardo in surprise and vigilance.
Hearing this, Rosalind and Leonardo were sure that this man was really Gordon.
“I’m Rosalind Jansen, the daughter of Nafis Jansen.”
“Nafis…”
Hearing this name, Gordon suddenly widened his eyes as if he was. greatly stimulated. He raised his hand to close the door, but Leonardo. pushed him away and walked into the room with Rosalind.
“What are you doing here? I don’t know you. Get out.”
Suddenly, Gordon raised his voice and pointed at the door.
“Easy. We are just here to learn about something. After that, we will leave.”
Leonardo said calmly as he looked carefully at the room.
The furnishings in the house were simple. There were only several pieces of furniture, so the room looked very poor.
There was even a broken cabinet door, which looked like it had been smashed.
Gordon glanced at Leonardo and Rosalind. Then he sighed helplessly.
“Well, it’s a shabby room. There’s not much to look at. Just take seats.”
Then Gordon found a chair and sat down, looking up at Rosalind.
“Are you Nafis’ youngest daughter? I met you a few years ago. I didn’t expect you to be a grown-up now. You’re getting prettier now.”

Rosalind and Leonardo also found the nearest two chairs to sit down. They nodded with a faint smile, but they didn’t reply.
Rosalind hadn’t figured out how Gordon would live such a poor life.
Seeing that Rosalind didn’t answer, Gordon was not angry. He smiled at her and asked, “Your father… How’s he doing?”
“He’s fine. He is awake and will soon be discharged from the hospital.”
Thinking of Nafis, Rosalind smiled gently.
“Good. Good. He’s better than me…”
Gordon gently patted the armrest of the chair. It seemed that Gordon was really happy for Nafis and upset about his own misfortune.
“Mr. Rodney, it’s only been a few years. Why did you become like this?” Rosalind finally asked.
Hearing this question, Gordon shook his head with self-mockery and helplessness.
“Don’t call me Mr. Rodney. I’m just a useless old man now. I’m not Mr. Rodney anymore.”
It turned out that Roy was encouraged to gamble in Coastton and owed 20 million dollars as a gambling debt. In the end, Gordon used the purchase budget of the Jansen Group to pay for his debt.
This made the Jansen Group almost go bankrupt, and because of this. Nafis jumped off a building to commit suicide. Gordon was ashamed, so he resigned after Damian took control of the Jansen Group.
After leaving the Jansen Group, Gordon wanted to start a small company by himself when he still had some money.
But before the company was established for long, Gordon’s son Roy owed debts again after gambling in Coastton. This time there was no other way out, so Gordon had to pay it by himself. He had to sell his company to pay the debts for Roy.
After this, Gordon locked Roy at home and cut off his contact with his. friends. Then Gordon told Roy that he would never help Roy if Roy dared to go to Coastton again.
