You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 832

It was the middle of the night on C Island. It was dark out, and the sound of the waves crashing into the rocks could be heard in the stillness of the night.

Hearing Tim's voice made Leon so angry that he wanted to throw his phone into the ocean. However, on the outside, he kept his calm.

"Thank you for taking such good care of her," he said, feigning calmness. "I'll find someone to pick her up right away."

Because Leon wasn't acting according to how Tim expected, Tim decided to provoke him some more. "Why don't you come here yourself? Oh, that's right. You left her here while you went off to live your princely life on C Island."

"Even though I'm far from her right now, there's no chance you'll win Michelle over," Leon sneered. "Don't try to take things that aren't yours. Try anything drastic and I'll skin you alive."

Without waiting for a response, Leon hung up the phone.

Tim's lips tightened into a thin line and his eyes were filled with gloom. He tightened his grip the phone, as though he was squeezing Leon's neck and not Michelle's phone.

Tim's voice jolted Leon out of his sleepiness. The first thing he did after dropping the call was contacting Nina, after which, he planned to book a ticket to Lexingport City.

Michelle really made him worry.

He told her to have less contact with Tim, yet she fell asleep in front of the guy.

It was still early in the morning in Lexingport City, so Michelle should've been at work. Why was she out and about, hanging out with another man?

There was no way he was going to let this slide.

He needed to teach her a lesson, lest she behave inappropriately.

Leon cursed inwardly and bought the earliest ticket without the slightest hesitation.

It showed that his payment was successful, but the flight information wasn't sent over to him yet. As he waited for it impatiently, Barbie called his phone.

Leon hesitated for a moment before answering it.

"Barbie, it's outside office hours," he said monotonously.

"Mr. Lu, I work 24/7. I'm always on call." Barbie's tone wasn't cold, which tended to happen when someone underwent rigorous military training. Instead, she sounded calm and gently.

If it weren't for the competition between her and Wynn two days ago, it would have been hard for Leon to imagine that Barbie was a skilled fighter.

Wynn was generally considered the best in fighting. However, after his spar with Barbie, Wynn started to wonder if he was going to lose his job. "She's truly Lyndon's granddaughter," he said with a sigh.

Barbie had the moves of a calculated militant but the calm fortitude of a professional woman. The two sides to her went hand in hand perfectly.

Barbie's voice sounded again on the phone, interrupting his thoughts. "Buying tickets is the secretary's job. You bought an air ticket to Lexingport City just now, which is due to leave this morning, which will affect your entire schedule for today. At ten o'clock this morning, you have a meeting with—"

"Postpone it for me," Leon abruptly cut her off. "You're my secretary, so do as I say."

Barbie fell silent. After a few moments, she replied, "Okay. I'll fix your schedule accordingly. However, as your secretary, it's my responsibility to tell you that you're bringing unnecessary trouble in doing so."

Despite her reminder, she knew he was already aware of this. He was a bright young man, how could he not?

Obviously, Leon was unmoved. "You don't need to worry about it. I'll handle everything."

"Okay." Barbie paused slightly, then asked, "When are you coming back? I need to book the return ticket."

Leon briefly checked his schedule for the week. Unfortunately, he was fully booked, rendering him unable to stay in Lexingport City for too long. "I'll come back after one night," he said with reluctance.

"Okay." And with that, Barbie hung up the phone.

At the break of dawn, Barbie was already standing by the door with one hand resting on the handle of her luggage.

Leon paused and asked, "Barbie, what're you doing?"

"As your secretary, I need to go to Lexingport City with you. The return air tickets and the hotel where you will be staying have already been arranged." Glancing at her watch, Barbie continued, "We have an hour and thirty-seven minutes before the plane takes off. It will take at least an hour and 4 minutes to get from here to the airport. Your Highness, it's time for us to go."
