Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 My Husband's Pda
The weight of their cruel words started to overwhelm Sofia, and tears welled up in her eyes. Sensing her distress, Sofia's bodyguard, who had been observing the scene from a distance, stepped forward, concern etched on his face.

"Ma'am, if you want, I can make them pay for laughing at you," he offered, his voice filled with a protective determination.

Sofia, fighting back her tears, shook her head. "No, no, please. I don't want to make a scene," she pleaded, her voice laced with vulnerability.

In the past few days, Sofia's bodyguards had grown accustomed to her friends accompanying her at school. They had learned to recognize them and had stopped bothering the students who approached Sofia.

Sofia, determined to maintain her composure, continued walking towards her car, trying to ignore the hurtful names thrown her way. Tears welled up in her eyes, threatening to spill over, as the weight of the taunting became too much to bear.

Just as she reached her breaking point, someone abruptly grabbed her hand and pulled her into a warm embrace. Startled, Sofia looked up and found Leonardo standing before her, a gentle smile playing on his lips. His presence took her aback, and she couldn't help but feel a mix of surprise and relief.

"Leonardo?" Sofia squeaked, her voice trembling with confusion. "What... what are you doing here?" Her gaze darted around, realizing that all eyes were on them, including Kat's piercing stare.

Without releasing her from his hold, Leonardo gently held Sofia's face, making her focus solely on him. A grin spread across his face as he spoke, his beautiful grey eyes shimmering with love.

"I had a meeting near your school, so I thought to surprise you by picking you up myself," he explained, his voice filled with warmth. "I was missing you, baby girl." With those words, he leaned down and kissed Sofia's cheeks, causing her eyes to widen in a mix of astonishment and horror.

The kiss, however, quickly shifted from her cheeks to her lips, and Sofia closed her eyes, savoring the taste of his affection. In that moment, she no longer cared about the surrounding gasps and whimpering. She tightened her grip around Leonardo's neck, deepening the kiss, lost in the overwhelming longing she had felt for him.

The school courtyard seemed to hold its breath, witnessing the unexpected display of love.

As Sofia and Leonardo remained locked in their passionate kiss, the world around them seemed to fade into insignificance. Nothing else mattered in that moment except for their love and connection.

However, their blissful moment was abruptly interrupted by a piercing scream, calling out Leonardo's name. Leonardo reluctantly pulled away from Sofia, curiosity etched on his face as he scanned the surroundings to identify the source of the disturbance.

To their surprise, it was Kat, standing a short distance away, her eyes fixed on Sofia with an intense gaze filled with animosity. However, as her eyes shifted to Leonardo, the hatred seemed to melt away, replaced by a glimmer of happiness. Leonardo's vigilant bodyguards swiftly intercepted Kat, preventing her from getting any closer to Sofia and Leonardo.

"Leonardo!" Kat called out again, desperation evident in her voice.

Yet, Leonardo remained unresponsive, his attention seemingly absorbed elsewhere.

Desperation colored Kat's plea as she implored the bodyguards, "Let me go. She is my sister."

Sofia turned her gaze to Leonardo, sensing a change in his demeanor. The warmth and affection he had exuded only moments ago had vanished, leaving behind an expressionless face and an intimidating aura radiating from his being.
