Love In Trauma's
Go to the Restaurant

Gina breathed a sigh of relief as Leana opened the bathroom door. Leana was already using Bathrobe and she immediately waltzed into the walk in closet without saying much.

"Miss, I'll follow you today." Gina said after Leana came out 5 minutes later.

"Yes, I need a friend." Leana refused to be accompanied. Leana's mind is in turmoil right now, and she needs someone next to her.

"I'm ready Gin. Come on." Leana picked up the bag at the dresser, then took Gina out. At the moment, Leana is not interested in makeup. He just wanted to go to a restaurant, where he could feel calm. If being in this house continues, automatically Leana will also continue to think about Max.

They both went down and as usual, it turned out that Vero and Marco were having breakfast at the dinner table.

Leana desperately wanted to ignore her mother-in-law, but for the sake of the survival of this house, Leana decided to stop first to say goodbye.

"Mom, Lea wants to go to the restaurant" Leana said politely.

"Do I need to take you, Le?" Marco stood up swiftly.

"No need, Marco. Thanks though. I've taken Gina." reject Leana blatantly.

"Marco, sit down." "We're not done talking." Vero gave a warning through his words and the look in his eyes.

"But, Mom, she's pregnant. If there's anything to it, Max can get mad."

"Max is gone. Why are you worried? There's Gina anyway" said Vero who kept looking at Leana. There's something strange about that kid. Leana that morning looked so cold and cynical.

"Mom, Marco, I'll go first." Leana bowed as usual. He did not want to get involved in the Scotts' family affairs even though it carried his name.

"Look, the longer he's been braver." "You're spoiling her too much." protested Vero who saw Leana getting further and further away.

"How dare Mom? Mom didn't see he was like a bank security guard?"

"Marco.Why do you defend Leana. Mom's suspicious that..."

"Suspect that I like Leana?" shoot Marco. "Mom is like Max. Your minds are narrow." "Mom who wants Leana could be a proper daughter-in-law for the Scotts. Now, Leana was acting as elegant and arrogant as before, Mom protested instead. Is that what Mom wants? Leana's already similar to Max." - Marco.

"Yes, yes, let's just continue eating." Vero puts his bad thoughts to Leana.

Leana's restaurant is pretty crowded today. Leana does not work in the front, but in the kitchen. He's the one who handles the kitchen with their chef. Yes, this activity is very helpful for Leana. He thought of nothing but cooking. Gina is also unable to follow Leana into the kitchen due to the privacy of the restaurant. So, Gina waited for Leana at the cashier table.

"Mom, there's a customer in the VIP room who complains." an employee Leana ran hurriedly to the kitchen.

"Complain? Why?" leana asked confusedly. He had tasted all the dishes he made.

"He said the food was salty" said the employee, looking down because it was not tasty.

Leana passed her job to their chef. He followed his employees with the apron still attached.

The VIP room is located at the top of the restaurant. As the name implies, the room was designed for people who need privacy. So, the room is a soundproof room with comfortable sofa chairs.

Leana went inside after knocking on the door 3x. He looked at the man standing behind him. From the posture and hair color, Leana immediately knew who the man who complained was.

"Mark, why are you here?" leana asked in shock.

Mark turned around and immediately gave a wide smile. He walked to the couch and sat there.

"Leana, because you forgot your promise, so I had to pretend to complain in order to meet you" Mark said clearly.

Leana silence. He had indeed forgotten about Mark's promise to meet at the restaurant. Where could Leana think of Mark if his brain is full of problems.

"Sit down, Le. There's something I want to ask." Mark pulled out a chair for Leana.

Leana thought for a moment, but she finally agreed. He's got nothing to do with Mark, so it won't be a big deal.

"Le, I'm sorry about our relationship that didn't end well." Mark opened the conversation first.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Leana folded her hands on the table while looking at the cynical Mark. He would obviously never forget the reason with Mark over.

"But I was really surprised to find out you were married to Max and pregnant."

"Yes, I'm so happy to have found a man who accepts me for who I am." Leana replied without hesitation. Though his heart seemed to be sliced considering his problems with Max.

"If you're happy, why is your face buckled?" Mark noticed the dark circles in Leana's eyes as well as her pale face without make up. He was very different from the last time they met before breaking up. "Where's your husband? Why would he let his pregnant wife work like this?"

"Max is out of town."

"Ooh.." Mark switched on Leana's stomach and body which was already slightly filled. "Sorry, how old are you?"

"Street 3 months."

"Aren't you married for 2 months?" Mark raised one eyebrow. He looked confused by Leana's words. Yes, Mark had been looking for information about Leana before they met. They got married in the hospital and it was suspicious.

Leana bit her lower lip in shame. She forgot that when she married Max, she was pregnant.

"Why do you ask me that? I'm not asking what your relationship with Aileen is or what her name is." Said Leana with a high tone.

"Le, it's not like that. I just wanted to say that.."

'Hoek' Leana was suddenly nauseous. He could not help it and all of his entrails fell to the floor.

"Le, are you okay?" Mark hurriedly approached Leana and helped her to tie her hair. He also twitched Leana's neck slowly.

"Is it often like this?"

Leana replied with a nod of her head.

"Need to see a doctor?"

"No. I'll have the employees clean this up first." Leana shifted her chair, then stood up with a stagger.

Mark wants to help Leana, but Leana has coded Mark not to come near.

"Why does it taste so bad? My stomach hurts too." Leana tried to walk slowly and returned to the kitchen.

Mark followed Leana behind him, afraid that the woman would suddenly fall unconscious.

Sure enough, just down one rung of stairs, Leana almost fell down. Mark held Leana's arm firmly.

Gina who saw that from below, immediately ran to where Leana was. She was surprised why Leana was already upstairs with a man with Bule's face. Leana was in the kitchen.

"Surge, Sir. I'll take care of Miss." Gina forcibly releases Mark's hand from Leana. He's sure Max will call soon.

Justright. Gina's phone rang and it was a call from Maxmillian.

"Hello, Mister."

"Take Leana home now!" max shouted loudly.

Gina to keep the phone away from her ear so that her eardrum does not break.

'No. 'Tuh. Could be a problem. Moreover, Miss was alone with another man." "With his own brother alone jealous, especially with foreign men. Why are there so many men approaching Miss? Are they blind? Clearly the Miss was married.' Gina's inner self while carrying Leana down the stairs.
