✿ CHAPTER 19 ✿
Suddenly I remembered the day I bumped into him at the shopping mall. My face turned red when I realized he might have known it was me. But how on earth did he know it was me…my face was covered obviously, and I was so confused right now…
"I have to take my leave now, I enjoyed tonight's dinner," Leonard said to my parents.
"You're leaving already? Anyways, it was nice having dinner with Mr. Leonard tonight" My Mom said with a smile.
"I'll see Mr. Leonard out" My Dad suggested
"No, never mind…I'll take my leave now." I looked up at Leonard as he waved my parents goodbye.
He didn't even spare me a glance anymore. Was I too harsh at him back in the bathroom? Whatever, it's not like I care. He's a grown-up man anyway.
After Leonard left, we also proceeded to leave that moment.
"Do you think the CEO enjoyed tonight's treat?" My Mom asked as we got into the car.
"I know he did…he's quite different from his usual self at work"
I was quiet as my parents talked about the dinner.
When we got home, I hurriedly went up to my room to freshen up, after that, I slumped on my bed feeling exhausted.
"This can't be happening, not now!" I covered my face with my pillow.
'ding' a message pops on my phone.
I removed the pillow from my face and grabbed my phone from beside me.
When I opened my phone it was a message from an unknown number.
"Who could it be?"
"That bastard Caesar!" I thought it was Caesar, and I was ready to rain insults on him, but I was stunned by what I saw…
[Did you like my present tonight, Amelia]
I guessed who the person was but couldn't believe it…how he did get my number?
[who is this?] I needed to confirm my speculations as I was finding it hard to believe.
[seems like you've forgotten about me just a few hours before we departed.]
"AHHHHHH!!" I squealed.
This can't be happening…Leonard!, why him again?
I could feel my heart racing again…why do I always feel this way around Leonard? I took a deep breath before replying to his text.
[How did you get my number?]
I held my phone nervously waiting for his reply.
"Stupid Amelia!" I scolded myself as I flung my phone on the bedside table.
I covered my face with my pillow again as I kicked my feet in the air.
"Why! Why! Why!-" 'ding'
"Huh?" I stopped kicking my Feet as I JUMPED off the bed to get my phone.
I hurriedly went to our chat and saw his reply.
[I get anything I want, Amelia.]
Why did I feel like this man has a dissociative identity disorder? An hour ago he was quiet and reserved (that almost gave me a heart attack during dinner) and now he was being bossy. I rolled my eyes when I read his text.
[My phone number isn't that easy to obtain…so how on earth did you get it?]
FLASHBACK: In episode 14 when Leonard asks his assistant to get information about Amelia using her ID. That's how he found out she was the vice CEO's daughter and also got her number and some private information about her.
I was losing my patience with this man.
[I want to see you again, Amelia]
What the hell is wrong with this man…not only is he avoiding my question but also saying he wants to see me.
"I'm blocking this man right now"
[you're not replying to my messages now…are you thinking of blocking me, Amelia?]
What the actual f*ck!...how the hell did he know I was about to block him, is he watching me?
Immediately, I turned my head around, scanning everywhere as if there was a hidden camera in my room.
What the hell was I even doing, there's no possible way he could be inside my room.
"Put yourself together Amelia!"
[I'm not talking to you anymore] I replied to his text.
[oh, now I'm hurt]
Why did I feel like this man was smirking at me?
[I'm serious when I say I want to see again Amelia]
[I have another surprise for you, expect it any moment from now, Amelia]
[Good night, My dear Amelia❤️]
"What the hell!... My dear Amelia?" I was dumbfounded.
