Chapter 41 So Perfunctory
As the sun set, Leona supported herself with her hands on the ground and looked up at the golden clouds.
"Mrs. Lu, it's getting late. How about go in now, OK?" The woman in black suit standing aside said worriedly. At the same time, she sighed for the beautiful scenery.
She had thought that Leona would not pay attention to her words, but unexpectedly Leona looked at her. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"Let's go."
Leona stood up, put on a thin coat and walked inside. Behind Leona was the stunned look of the woman in the suit.
"Why are you still standing there?" It was not until Leona turned around that the woman came to her senses.
"Yes." This was what the people in the villa should do.
Passing by the center of the hall, the delicious food on the table was forgotten again. Without saying anything, Leona went upstairs, ignoring the servants' shouting.
"Ah, it's so tired to serve this Mrs. Lu."
When her disappeared at the corner of the stairs, the impatient voice came, but her mouth was covered in a hurry.
"Don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, Mr. Lu will crack your mouth when he hears it!"
The woman in suit looked at the woman nervously and warned her again and again.
That woman nodded silently and ran away in a flash.
In the bedroom, Leona didn't turn on the light. She could vaguely be seen in the dim light from the window.
However, she seemed to have no spirit at all. She always buried her head.
"Dad, mom, I miss you so much."
Tears fell from the corner of her eyes unconsciously, and the unbearable loneliness made the sadness in the bottom of her heart surge up.
The cries became louder and louder, which made the person standing outside not have the courage to knock on the door.
Her feet, which were soaked and swollen, looked paler and even a little horrible under the light!
Everyone in the villa knew that Mrs. Lu was not feeling well, so they didn't mean to disturb her.
In the narrow space, the being forgotten figure had been standing there quietly
In her dream, she was awakened by a crisp ring tone. The woman lying on the bed suddenly sat up and began to look around for the source of the sound.
"Hello?"
A strange number came into view. She answered it without hesitation.
She called to the phone several times, but there was no sound from the other end of the phone.
"Leona!"
Just as she was about to hang up, there was a sound from the other end of the phone.
The familiar voice made her eyes wide open!
"Mom?" She called out with uncertainty, tears streaming down her face.
"Leona, how are you doing recently?"
She knew that the person on the other end of the phone was crying.
"Mom, I'm fine."
Quietly wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes, Leona pretended to be strong, but there was still no trace of sadness in her tone.
"Don't lie to me. I know he is not good to you."
"Mom, what do you know?" Speaking of this, Leona was curious for a moment.
"My child, in fact, we arranged the engagement between you and Louis." The woman's voice became lower and lower, as if she was apologizing.
"Mom, how can you take the happiness of your daughter for a lifetime!" Leona shouted at the person on the phone. She hated and resented, but everything was settled.
"Well, Louis knelt down in front of us and said he would be good to you. You know, our family is poor, so we entrust you to him. We didn't expect that. If I had known it, I would rather die than let my daughter out! "
Feeling mom's remorseful, Leona thought all these were perfunctory. She hung up the phone coldly and smiled with self-mockery.
