Tracy goes straight to Leo’s office. As she passes the front desk of the secretary, she takes a deliberate look there. After the secretary nods, she opens the door of Leo’s office.
“Leo.” Tracy opens the door of the office and closes it gently. She stands in the same place with a slightly apologetic look and carefully says, “Leo, do I disturb you?”
Leo looks up at Tracy with a flat look, and then he looks back at the computer screen. He says, expressionless and bland, “why do you come to me?”
Leo doesn’t respond so Tracy is relieved. The next second she flows from the door like a butterfly to Leo’s desk. She says worriedly, “Leo, I heard today that a child came to the company and said he was your son. Is it true?”
Hearing this, Leo frowns and looks at Tracy displeased. He says unhappily, “who did you hear about it?”
Few people know about it today, and he has ordered that they are banned from spreading it around. It is only a few hours before Tracy knows it and rushes to the company. What does this mean?
Leo is not happy that his privacy is being watched all the time.
Tracy is shocked and her face changes. She rushes over when she hears the news. She doesn’t think about it. Now she doesn’t know how to explain it to Leo.
After thinking for a while, Tracy thinks those things don’t matter at all. The truth is more important than it. Tracy says to Leo, “somebody told me anyway. Leo, tell me if this is true. Is it a woman who purposely lets this little child approach you?”
And she hears that the little boy’s eyes are very similar to Leo's!
So Tracy panicked and canceled her date with her best friend and rushed to the company.
But Leo frowns instead of answering Tracy. He stares at Tracy discontentedly and says coldly, “you’ve arranged people around me?”
Tracy’s behavior is equivalent to challenging his bottom line.
“Ah.” Tracy panics. Her face is pale and her eyes roll uneasily. She looks around and doesn’t dare to look into Leo’s eyes. She says vaguely, “Leo, what are you talking about? We are talking about the boy.”
Tracy’s reaction confirms Leo’s speculation. He says discontentedly, “Tracy, you are my fiancee, so I allow you to come to my company. But I didn’t expect you to arrange people around me. You are too bold!”
As he speaks, he stands up and looks at Tracy. He yells at her, “Tracy! This is a place for work, not for love! Who on earth is the person you have arranged for me?”
Tracy’s behavior has hit his bottom line. He doesn’t care if she asks his staff to call her Mrs. Howard. After all, they are engaged and will get married sooner or later.
Tracy can only be obedient. She nods and wipes her tears. She smiles and says, “I see. I’m sure I won’t make today’s mistake again. By the way, Leo, Have you had lunch? Let’s go to lunch first.”
“No.” Leo stares at the computer screen and hits the keyboard with his hand. He says casually, “I have something to do. If you are hungry, go to lunch first.”
“OK.” Tracy nods dejectedly. She is obedient on the surface but she complains in her heart.
Every time she wants to ask Leo out to eat, she is rejected by him. They are lovers, but in fact they are not even friends.
Ordinary friends often go out to eat. Leo is her fiance, but he rejects her for various reasons.
They have been engaged for five years. Leo doesn’t have a sexual need for her. They are not very close. Sometimes Tracy even wonders if Leo doesn’t like her. Why doesn’t he want to touch her?
Tracy understands that they are engaged because of their career. Her father admires Leo’s talent, so he promises to marry her to him.
