You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 683

Leon thought that Michelle didn't like him and felt embarrassed. All this, he didn't realize how serious he was when he thought of asking her to marry him.

"Why not?" Leon asked. "Do you know who I'm talking about?"

"I do."

"Why won't you agree, then?"

"I just know I can't do that!" Michelle turned red and faced away from Leon. She didn't want to talk to him.

Even though Leon was angrier than her, he didn't let it register on his face and chose to keep his emotions inside him. If anybody else aside from Michelle said that, he would teach them a lesson.

'What's wrong with me? Why doesn't she like me?

Doesn't she always say that I'm so handsome? She always compliments me!

Is she just making fun of me?

If that's the case, I'm so disappointed!'

Leon took a deep breath and pretended that nothing had happened. "You don't want to talk about seniority anymore, right?"

"No, I don't." Michelle jumped on the bed and buried her face in her pillow. "You're like my brother! I thought you would always be nice to me, but I never expected that you would actually..."

'How dare you ask me to marry someone who's old enough to be my grandfather?

I'm so angry!'

If it weren't for the pillow covering her mouth, she would be screaming in rage.

Meanwhile, Leon could barely understand what Michelle was saying. However, he had an idea of what she was trying to tell him. If this was what she really wanted to say, then he would rather not hear it all. The thought made his chest tighten.

'So it's not a good idea for me to marry her?

Have I done something wrong?

She treats me as her brother, but we aren't actually siblings!'

Leon sighed and gave in. "Alright, alright. I won't make fun of you anymore. It's all my fault. Just forget what I said, okay?"

Michelle raised her head from the pillow and glanced at Leon. From the corner of her eye, she could only see his slender figure. She snorted and rested her chin on the back of her hand.

She was angry and wanted Leon to coax her.

If Leon were to do that, her anger would subside.

However, Leon didn't say anything. Instead, she heard his footsteps walking away, the sound growing fainter with each step.

'He left?

Did Leon just leave like this?'

Michelle hurriedly jumped out of bed to go after him. She had no time to fix her disheveled hair.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Leon standing at the door, looking at her with eyes full of confusion.

"Michelle, where are you going?" Leon's stare grew sharper. "Do you want to be like Nini and run away from home?"

Leon's voice was lower and colder than usual, as though he was interrogating her. He didn't look pleased, which frightened Michelle into silence.

She pursed her lips and looked at the floor. "No, I thought you left."

He noticed that Michelle seemed wronged.

The sight of her made his heart melt. "Look at me," he said, a gentle smiling forming on his lips.

"Okay." Michelle raised her head obediently and stared at him without blinking.
