You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 740

Leon couldn't help but approach Michelle, who was like a frightened rabbit.

As he walked forward, Michelle subconsciously took a couple of steps until she felt a cold wall behind her. In front of her was a man with a scalding hot body looming over her, as his intoxicating scent made its way up to her nostrils.

With nowhere to go, she stood still and looked up at him.

"Michelle, do you have any intentions or not?" Leon couldn't stop himself from teasing her. He peeled a piece of orange and rubbed it against her lips. "Open your mouth and let me know if this orange I peeled tastes sweeter."

Their bodies stood so close together that Michelle could feel Leon's hot breath swept to her face and blow her hair upwards. It made her body feel hot inside as different scenarios started to flash in her mind.

Slowly, Michelle pried her mouth open, submitting to Leon's request. She took in half of the orange, with the remainder protruding out of her mouth.

"Why won't you eat it? Do you want me to eat the other half?" Leon asked. His tone became more playful with each word he spoke. His sly smile made him even more attractive.

The closer he inched towards her, the redder her cheeks grew.

She sucked the whole orange into her mouth and swallowed it. Then, she lowered her head and placed the remaining three oranges she was holding into his arms. "Thanks for the orange, Leon. Bye!" she said hurriedly and ran away.

A faint smile broke on his face as he held the three oranges and stared at Michelle's figure.

He felt proud for being able to make her blush.

It was an indication that she saw him not only as her brother but as a man.

Then, he saw Michelle turn back and was now running towards him.

When she reached him, she caught her breath and asked, "Leon, will you go home with your parents tomorrow? I forgot to ask."

"No," Leon answered firmly. 'Michelle's not yet my girlfriend. I really don't wanna go back home a single man.'

She smiled. "I'm glad to hear that. Bye, Leon."

Then, she turned around and started running away again.

But compared to her initial sprint earlier, her pace now was slower.

Even then, she was still fast enough to the point that Leon couldn't stop her.

The next day, Bruce and Anne were headed back to C Island. A group of people, including Bryant and Valerie, were standing in a line, waiting to see them off.

Michelle remembered what Nina told her and followed what she said. She didn't talk to Valerie even though the two stood together.

Before she checked in, Anne asked her son again, "You really won't come home with us?"

"I wanna stay here a little bit longer," Leon replied. He glanced in Michelle's direction and shifted his eyes back to his mother.

Anne followed where his son looked and saw Valerie. She frowned.

"You haven't given up on her yet?"

"You misunderstood me. Well, you can go ahead. Let me know once you've landed safely," Leon said with a smile.

"Okay," Anne replied softly.

From where she was standing, Michelle couldn't hear what Leon and his mom were talking about. But she did notice that Leon glanced at her direction while they were talking, followed by his mom.

When Leon looked at her direction, she wasn't sure whether he was looking at her or Valerie. But she was certain that his mom cast a glance at Valerie.

Michelle felt dejected.

That afternoon, John and Nina decided to enjoy their honeymoon in advance without the children. Before they left, John sent a message to Leon and asked him to pick up his children from the kindergarten.

Unaware of what her husband did, Nina sent a same message to Michelle. She asked her to drive her children back to Stone Road.

So when Leon and Michelle saw each other at the gate of the kindergarten, they were both surprised.

"Michelle, are you here to pick up Van and Don?"
