“You no longer have time, say! What's your choice?” Leo stared intently at Shena's fiery red eyes as it held in anger.
Shena herself could only clench her hands as a form of emotional outburst over her frustration at the rancid wedge that was now in front of her.
Closing his eyes and sighing deeply, Shena finally rounded her decision.
“I ... refuse,” Shena replied briefly.
Leo was astonished by the decision that Shena took, but he immediately understood the situation even though Shena's answer did not match his expectations. “Alright, then ...”
“I refuse to sacrifice Laura's happiness just for my freedom!” Shena cut out Leo's words quickly before she misunderstood Shena's answer, “I'll never make my best friend suffer because of me. Whatever I will do to make them all happy, either with, or without me.” Shena ventured into Leo's eyes to show the land crocodile that he was ready to fight Leo.
At first Leo is disappointed by Shena's first reply, but he turns to salute with Shena's courage which is more concerned with the kindness of his friends than himself.
This is the privilege that you have Shena. Most women prefer themselves to others. However, different from you who instead behave the opposite.inner Leo.
“That means you agree that today we are engaged too, I am happy.” Leo laughed as he drank the drink he had placed on the table without feeling the slightest guilt.
“Don't be happy first.” Shena was still staring at Leo. “I still haven't done anything.” Shena tries to get closer to Leo for the first time. The girl also wanted to show her fangs and teeth so that she would not be taken lightly by Leo.
“What are you going to do?” challenge Leo.
“At the moment I can't do anything because I don't have anything. But, I will not let you make Laura or my other friends as material to threaten me if I do not comply with all your requests. Instead, they will all be my source of strength to fight you.” Shena said it with a toilet and was braver than before.
Leo laughed out loud at Shena's strong determination to fight him, but her laughter instantly subsided as soon as she saw Shena's extremely sharp gaze than usual, it signified that this girl he had successfully forced was serious with her words.
“You will never be able to fight me, Honey ... because what?” Leo hangs his sentences to bring up a pleasant and stressful situation. He looked into Shena's eyes, which were also staring into Leo's eyes. “Because I .. love you!” leo whispered in Shena's ear so that the girl was more shocked and disgusted at hearing the sweet words out of the mouth of a land crocodile like Leo.
“You're right, I can't fight you. Not because you love me, but because I have nothing to use against you. Because our world is so different. What you're doing is ridiculous. You think your family would agree if they knew who I really was? A rich man like you will surely match his son to a girl who comes from another rich family. Can't your parents agree with our engagement because I'm not from a rich family? You think I'm***, what? You only made this party to scare me, right?” Shena feels victorious with her argument because it can make Leo speechless.
For a while Leo did not answer Shena's accusation directly, he only smiled.
“You think what I'm doing is just to bully you? I've been planning all this for a long time, honey. And just so you know, my family is not what you're accusing me of. On the contrary, they are very bodo with what I do including about choosing a partner. In other words, they have absolutely no objection to our engagement.” now it is Leo's turn to feel victorious because it can break Shena's argument.
“What?” Shena still couldn't believe that the Leo family agreed to this engagement. Because, he never knew if there was a rich family who immediately agreed to his son to have a relationship with an ordinary poor girl. If in the movies, parents from the upper class will surely match their daughter's son with other children from the upper class. Even in the real world it is the same. “You must be lying, your parents will not agree you are engaged to me.” Shena remained in her position that Leo was only bluffing and scaring her to want to be her puppet.
“He didn't lie, Miss!” shouted someone from inside the other side of the room. The man went outside and walked closer to us.
Shena was surprised to see the arrival of a middle-aged person who was more worthy of being called an uncle or grandfather. The man wearing the black bodyguard-style suit was standing right next to Leo.
“Young master Leo, Your father and Mother are waiting outside, please come soon.” The person immediately turned to look at me after delivering a message to Leo. “And for you, Miss. This engagement was already planned by the young Master in advance upon the approval of the Master and the Great Lady. They agreed to your engagement without any conditions. Please get ready because our guest is waiting.” The uncle spoke very graciously and elegantly, his extremely calm and flat expression made me believe that what he said must be true.
“Thank you, Uncle. We will be out in a moment, please tell Daddy and Mom not to be surprised if you meet her daughter-in-law.”
“Good, Young master, then I'll excuse you.” The man bowed to Leo and left us both again.
Shena gawked at what she said the person called with this uncle.
No way, how can an influential person like the Leo family want to bless his child choose a partner from ordinary people like me. This is really impossible. There must be something wrong here and I have to figure out why they let Leo choose his own partner.
Shena struggled with her own thoughts. Trying to believe that he did not hear wrong.
