Chapter 698: Chapter 690: Marriage Proposal (5)

Leo Joyce acted as if he hadn’t noticed her pouty, aggrieved expression. In a deep voice, he said, "Look how thin you are. You can’t just skip meals. Get up. We’re going to eat."

"No." ’I don’t want to get up. I just don’t. Nothing you say will make me.’

’Just thinking about it makes me so angry.’

’What gives him the right...’

’It’s not fair, not fair! It’s just so unfair!’

’That jerk. If he thinks he can get me up now, not a chance.’

’I’m just not getting up!’

However, before Tiana could finish her thought, a certain someone had already whipped off the covers. "Baby, if you don’t get up soon, I’m going to have to help you." As he spoke, Leo Joyce made a move.

At this, a panicked Tiana Grayson scrambled to sit up. "No, that’s okay! I’m up, I’m getting up, alright?!" ’Waaah... He’s so annoying...’

"Good girl." Seeing Tiana sit up, Leo Joyce gave her a doting smile.

Tiana Grayson shot him an irritated glare, cursing him out viciously in her mind.

But she didn’t realize that while her mind was wandering, a certain man...

Tiana Grayson suddenly felt a chill run down her back, and a shiver wracked her body. When she snapped out of her daze, she saw the terrifying look in Leo Joyce’s eyes.

She quickly grabbed the blanket and pulled it up to cover herself. "What are you looking at?!"

Tiana Grayson felt truly, deeply wronged. She had discovered that Leo had changed.

He was getting worse and worse, no longer the gentle, considerate Leo she once knew.

"Ahem... Actually... I didn’t see anything..." Caught red-handed by Tiana Grayson, a thoroughly embarrassed Leo Joyce raised a hand and coughed twice, spouting utter nonsense with a straight face.

"Hmph, shameless! You’re so shameless." ’Figures. There isn’t a single good man out there.’

’I was really wrong about Leo.’

"Ahem, Tiana, I should probably point out that you’re, uh..."

AHHHH! Tiana Grayson’s face flushed crimson with shame, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. "You! You have the nerve to say that!"

Leo Joyce shrugged innocently. ’Why is she so angry?’

"Leo Joyce, shut up!!!" ’Even if he saw everything, he didn’t have to say it out loud!’

’How can he say things like that without even batting an eye?’

She truly felt that since his return, Leo Joyce had changed. He had completely changed. He was no longer the gentle, considerate Leo she held in her heart.

Of course, Leo Joyce had no idea what Tiana Grayson was thinking. Even if he did know, he wouldn’t feel the least bit embarrassed.

After all, this was his woman. He could do as he pleased.

However, seeing that Tiana was genuinely angry, Leo Joyce reined himself in. He didn’t dare provoke her any further, or else he’d be the one to suffer in the end.

’Sigh,’ he thought. ’My little princess is so shy.’ He instantly felt that... ’My... post-marriage... duties... are... going to be... immense!’

He had to get his little princess to stop being so shy, to completely accept him and get used to him.

"There, there, don’t be angry. I’ll shut my mouth, alright? Is that better?"

With her face still flushed, Tiana Grayson glared at Leo Joyce. "Then get out. I need to get dressed."

PS: Leo and Tiana’s arc is almost over. I’m pulling an all-nighter to finish writing their side story and will aim to release Eleanor Bishop’s side story tomorrow night.
