Dressed in a black jacket and a black cap, half of Paula's face was covered. She took a bag of snacks in her hand.
A gust of cold wind blew over her face. She walked across the sidewalk and entered a luxurious hotel.
When she passed through the lobby of the hotel, she happened to meet Leon. Although Paula had seen some photos of Leon but she had never talked to him, so she didn't recognize him at the first sight. She just thought that this man was very handsome and couldn't help but take a few more looks at him.
Leon just glanced at Paula casually because her figure was similar to that of Michelle. Then he noticed Paula's gaze, so he looked at her.
When they looked at each other, Leon was stunned. He didn't recognize Michelle.
However, it seemed that Michelle did not recognize him. She turned around and walked towards the elevator.
His handsome face was still lingering in Paula's mind, and she felt he was so familiar. Suddenly, she remembered who he was and suddenly stopped.
'Leon?
Michelle's boyfriend, Leon?'
Confused, Paula turned around and looked at Leon again. Now she finally clearly saw the man in front of her. Her eyes widened slightly.
'Leon!
He is really Leon!
He is so handsome! He is much more handsome than in the photo!'
With an obsessed expression on her face, Paula opened her mouth and almost revealed her true voice. She quickly changed into the voice of Michelle and called softly, "Leon?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Leon came to his senses. He strode to her and held her in his arms.
A faint fragrance of flowers floated into his nose, and it was no longer the familiar milk fragrance of Michelle. Leon was stunned again, feeling something wrong.
"Michelle, have you changed your shampoo and body wash?" He asked in a low voice.
Suddenly being held by a man, Paula's body was a little stiff. When she heard the question, she stammered and nodded, "Ah? Oh, yes. "
It seemed that she was a little hesitated.
Hearing her response, Leon rubbed the back of her head with his big palm. He had been missing her for a few days, so the doubt in her heart immediately disappeared.
"How come? Didn't you expect that I would suddenly appear in front of you? " Leon chuckled softly, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
Leon's soft voice echoed in Paula's ears, comforting her. She gradually relaxed her body, raised her hand to hold him and said frankly, "No, I didn't expect that you would suddenly appear."
"I didn't expect that you would force your parents to agree with the marriage of us." Leon sighed, pulled her away and angrily flicked her forehead.
"Ah!" Frowning, Paula felt a pain. She looked up at him and complained, "Leon, it hurts so much."
She didn't raise her hand to cover her forehead, nor did she look at him innocently to protest.
It was a subconscious action of Michelle.
But there the girl in front of him didn't.
The tenderness on Leon's face faded away, and his expression become serious. He stared at the girl in front of him for a while, and he couldn't help suspecting her again.
"Does it hurt?" Leon asked tentatively, "Do you want me to rub it for you?"
With a big smile, Paula held his arm expertly and said, "It doesn't hurt. Let's go upstairs, Leon."
"Okay." Leon let her hold his arm. He lowered his head and saw the emerald diamond bracelet on her hand. Then he came to his senses. 'Maybe I thought too much.'
The two of them got into the elevator. Standing next to him, Paula asked, "Leon, how do you know I'm here?"
"I investigated it." Leon smiled softly.
"Oh," said Paula with a smile.
It was Leon who came to her, so it was not her fault.
She was paid to disguise herself as Michelle. It gave her an opportunity to date a handsome man while earning money at the same time, which made her overjoyed.
But she had to be more careful.
During this period of time, the clothes, food, accommodation and transportation of Paula were all reimbursed by Tim, so she booked a very luxurious suite.
Tim didn't allow her to call her family until the commercial shoot was finished.
What made her even angrier was that Tim didn't even lent her a charger.
Her phone was out of power this morning and turned off. Now it was lying on the table with her quietly.
She couldn't make a phone call, nor could she look at the photos of Leon on her phone. Michelle was in a bad mood that she didn't have dinner. She locked herself in the room without saying a word.
At half past ten in the evening, the housekeeper knocked on the door on time. Michelle glanced at the door indifferently and heard the housekeeper calling her outside. Then she reluctantly went to open the door.
"Miss He, it's time to drink milk." The servant brought a cup of warm milk to Michelle.
Since she went to this island, the housekeeper would bring her milk at this time every night, saying that it was good for sleep.
Every time Michelle would drink it up in front of the housekeeper, then returned the cup to her.
But she was really not in the mood tonight. She took a sip of milk and said, "I'll drink it later. Put it in my room first, and I'll give the cup back to you tomorrow morning."
Then she smiled politely and closed the door.
The housekeeper frowned and finally left.
Michelle only drank one third of the milk. She put the cup on the table and went to bed. She thought she would be able to see her parents and Leon in her dream.
However, this time she didn't sleep as well as she did in the past two nights. She was half-asleep.
She seemed to be not sleepy tonight, Knowing that she would sleep without Leon's phone call, soon she woke up.
She fumbled to turn on the light. The dazzling light made her squint. She turned around and looked out of the window. It was still dark. She didn't know what time it was.
She couldn't fall asleep, so she put on her clothes and was about to go out for a walk.
Next door was Tim's bedroom. The door was ajar and there was a crack as wide as a wrist, which gave out weak light.
Michelle couldn't help but stop and looked inside curiously. At a glance, she was shocked by the scene inside.
