Virginity in second marriages novel Chapter 627

The shift was finally over and it was time to leave work.

Serena gathered her things and headed for the cafeteria, saw a man standing in the doorway, smiling slightly.

-Have you finished your shift?

Until she saw Leonardo, Serena remembered that he had accepted her invitation to have lunch together.

She looked at him with some embarrassment, probably because she had thought the memory of Leonardo's invitation had slipped her mind.

-Yes,‖ Serena nodded her head.

Leonardo turned to walk out the door, and after a few steps without seeing Serena following her, he turned back to her and asked, -Are you still not coming with me?

-Yes, I'm coming,‖ Serena suddenly regained consciousness and had to hurry to follow him.

Serena was behind him as he entered the elevator and kept her distance. Even when they reached the second floor, she kept walking that way.

Leonardo said nothing, and opened the car door for her in a particularly gentle way. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Are we going somewhere far away? There seem to be restaurants around here, why don't we pick one and have a simple meal?

Hearing this, Leonardo smiled and said softly, "Although lunch is not as important as breakfast, but you can't treat it like that. No wonder you have lost so much weight in these five years because of such an attitude toward eating.

Serena was speechless.

-Come on, I made a reservation. It would be a shame to cancel it.

Since he had said so, clearly pressuring her, did she have any reason not to get into the car?

After she got into the car, Leonardo even bent down to personally fasten her seat belt, Serena's face changed slightly and she hastened to say, -I'll do it myself.

Leonardo no longer insisted and smiled slightly, -Good.

Then he went around the other side and climbed into the driver's seat.

As Serena sat in Leonardo's car, she had mixed feelings. Leonardo spoke to her from time to time, very appropriately.

Serena looked at the time and could not help but ask, "Is it far?

Instead of answering, Leonardo swerved and said, 'We are here.

Serena was stunned.

-I'll drive the car to the parking lot, but the air quality is not good there, so you'd better pull over first and wait for me at this restaurant.

-Serena nodded, got out of the car first, and went into the restaurant to wait for him.

In about three minutes, Leonardo returned with the car keys still in his hand, -Let's go.

He seemed to be a regular at this restaurant, and just as he walked in with Serena, a waitress immediately approached to guide them. The two followed, and Serena deliberately kept her distance from Leonardo, but he kept slowing down and walking parallel to her, so eventually Serena felt embarrassed and had to walk naturally.

After entering the room, Leonardo smiled slightly and said, "You have been eating Western food for so many years abroad, haven't you? Would it be awkward to suddenly invite you to eat Chinese?"

Hearing this, Serena shook her head and replied, "No, actually, I still eat a lot of Chinese food.

-I know," Leonardo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Chinese food is your favorite, plus you don't have much desire to eat Western food.

Serena looked up but did not answer him.

Instead the waitress said with a smile, "This is the first time I've seen Mr. Leonardo bring his girlfriend here."

Leonardo smiled and did not deny it.

On the contrary, Serena frowned and looked at him with disgust, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm not his girlfriend."

The waitress froze and looked at Leonardo uncomfortably.

Thinking about it, Serena smiled to herself, saying, "So? Are you so sure that I will definitely stay with you?"

-It's not that I'm sure, but it's that I'm sincerely following you and want to protect you, Serena.

Serena felt embarrassed.

She thought he was conceited, but she did not expect such an answer that left her speechless.

She lowered her gaze and looked at the cutlery in front of her, without answering him.

-If you stay with me, I will not let them hurt you, whether it's you or Manuel, I will do my best to protect you.

Serena raised her head and her eyes fixed on him.

-You know Manuel is Cristian's, so why do you want to do this?

-I don't care much,‖ Leonardo tapped his wrist and poured himself a cup of tea and sipped elegantly.

-I didn't care five years ago, do you think I care five years later? The only person I care about is you.

-But that's not my case,‖ Serena interrupted him, -What I care about now is not me, but Manuel."

Leonardo shuddered and asked self-consciously, "Are you afraid I will treat him badly?"

Serena did not answer, but she was of the opinion that everyone wanted to have their own biological child and that no one would raise other people's children. Moreover, the relationship between Leonardo and Cristian was not something that could be explained in a few sentences.

Thinking about this, Serena shook her head.

-I don't want to say that.

-Well, it's better not to discuss it at dinner, how I will treat you, you will know later. Even sincerity needs time to verify itself, I will have plenty of time for you to verify mine.
