You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 836

Apparently, it was a video chat.

"Leon?" Michelle called out, too dazed to believe her eyes.

"No, I am not," Leon snapped sardonically.

Michelle didn't know what had just happened. After all, she just woke up. "You are Leon!"

The response she got from Leon was a cold snort. Only then did Michelle finally realize that something was wrong. He had never treated her this way.

She suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

"Leon, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Leon raised his eyebrows slightly, but his anger was more than obvious, which made Michelle wince.

He was angry, and she was confused.

Michelle didn't know how she had offended him, so she batted her eyelashes at him innocently and asked, "What did I do to make you angry? Can you tell me first? I don't know what's going on."

"Michelle, didn't I tell you to stop all contact with Tim?"

Leon's voice was strained, which frightened Michelle. She shrank back and stuttered guiltily, "Y-Yes."

"Then why were you with him?" Leon raised his voice. He couldn't contain his anger now. "And you even went so far as to sleep in his bed! Can't you see that he's in love with you?"

Michelle's eyes went wide with shock.

She couldn't believe her ears.

'Tim likes me? I slept in his bed?'

She had no idea!

"Leon, I didn't!" Michelle felt wronged. Judging from Leon's attitude right now, there was a chance he was about to break up with her.

Her chest felt extremely heavy.

She quickly tried to explain. "Leon, you misunderstand. I was just so sleepy, and he offered me a ride home, but it seems I fell asleep in his car. Then..."

Tears filled her eyes and she knew that if she spoke another word, she would burst into uncontrollable tears.

Leon tried to stop her. "Don't you dare cry!"

But his heart immediately softened.

He couldn't take this anymore. If he didn't teach her how to behave, one day, he'd explode from anger. What if he died out of the blue? Would his girl throw herself into Tim's arms?

When this thought crossed his mind, his anger flared up again.

Although Leon was enraged, he willed himself to calm down. Still, he refused to smile on camera.

"Okay." Michelle nodded obediently and shut her mouth, pursing her lips in silence while waiting for the man to say something more.

She thought about how every night since Leon left, she tossed and turned sleeplessly. Whenever Leon hung up the phone, she looked at his photos wistfully, wishing he was next to her.

But it didn't take long before she had seen all of his photos. The past couple of nights had been tough.

How she wished she could see Leon in person, not just a cold reflection of him on her phone. It just couldn't compare to being together in the flesh.

At the very least, being on video call with him was much better than staring at his photos. Here, they could respond to each other in real time.

But she missed him so much.

Her muddled thoughts and surging emotions gathered to form tears, which rolled down her cheeks.

She just looked so pitiful.

Leon's heart ached and he felt pain spreading all over his body.

He watched the tears stream down her face in silence, panic and anxiety welling up inside him. That was the last straw.

He wanted to go to Lexingport City!

"Michelle! Please! Stop crying!"

Her crying broke his heart.
