Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love -
Chapter 509
Although Annabella could hear the displeasure in Lucy's tone, she brushed it off and continued to do as she pleased.
"Love is unpredictable, you know. I can feel the chemistry between Theodore and me, so what you said probably isn't true. I think what I said is much more likely to happen."
Lucy was puzzled. Where did Annabella get such confidence and audacity from? While Lucy would not dare to claim to fully understand Theodore, she could still tell what he was thinking through their interactions.
At the very least, Theodore would never have feelings for someone as self-centered as Annabella, who only cared about wealth and status.
If anything, Theodore would keep his distance from such people.
Lucy could not bring herself to burst Annabella's bubble, but she felt it was best to gently discourage her early on-especially since Annabella's target was her brother.
"I agree with what you said, but I know my brother quite well, so maybe you could reconsider..."
Lucy did not finish the latter part of her statement. She wanted to tell Annabella to consider other options and not focus all her energy on Theodore. Besides, his dismissive attitude toward Annabella was definitely not a sign of interest. After rambling on for so long, trying to persuade Lucy to side with her, Annabella was taken aback by Lucy's opposition.
Her expression sank instantly, and she was unable to muster a smile. However, she dared not criticize Lucy or talk back because she was still a princess of Charleston.
Annabella had heard about her
before. Not
It only
was she the wife of
Matthew Leon, but she was also
important person to Theodore, the man she was set to marry.
el?
Annabella could not afford to offend her, or it would jeopardize her
marriage plans.
As the two remained at an impasse, Lucy considered making an excuse to slip away until a car slowly approached the expansive front lawn outside the garden fence.
Lucy squinted to get a better look. Was that not Matthew's car? She had asked Matthew to pick her up after she was done dealing with things, but she did not expect him to arrive so early.
Annabella gazed at the car in
confusion. Being from a noble
background, she was well-versed in
luxury brands for cars and
handbags. At first glance, she could tell that the car was quite valuable as it seemed to be a limited edition model issued by a certain car manufacturer. It was sleek and understated yet luxurious.
The car came to a slow stop at the entrance, and a man emerged from the driver's seat. The first thing that caught her eye was his long legs, followed by his elegant fingers resting on the car door.
With a click, the car door closed. The two women could see Matthew's side profile under the sunlight.
Various magazines had deemed Matthew to be the most handsome and charismatic man outside of the entertainment industry, and such claims could be found almost everywhere.
