Chapter 139: As soon as he saw her
Serena came to her senses, rubbed her nose and took two steps backward.
“Sorry, Leonardo, I didn’t expect you to stop suddenly.”
Leonardo turned to look at her gracefully and said softly, “It’s okay. The important thing is that you didn’t get hurt.”
Of course she… didn’t hurt anymore.
After the two sat down, Leonardo ordered Serena’s favorite dishes.
Serena sighed at the man’s care and thoughtfulness, but at the same time she began to have a guilty conscience again. She always felt that she should not have dinner with Leonardo.
But then she thought again that they were just eating and that was all. She had no other thoughts. What was wrong?
These thoughts vanished completely when the spicy boiled fish was served.
Serena liked to eat boiled fish, but there was no accompaniment.
And if she ate it alone, she would not be able to finish it. When she smelled the familiar aroma, Serena suddenly remembered that she had not eaten it for many years.
She took a piece of fish and put it in a bowl. Suddenly, she smiled, “I haven’t eaten it for a long time. By the way, can you eat spicy food? Would you like to eat it with me?”
The steam from the fish enveloped Leonardo’s facial features, making his eyebrows gentler and his smile lighter, “It’s okay, I can eat food with any flavors.”
The reason why Serena asked this question was because many people didn’t eat spicy food, let alone pungent and spicy food. This kind of freshly cooked food was both spicy and sour, and Serena feared that Leonardo’s stomach could not take it.
“Leonardo, if you really can’t eat it, don’t push yourself.”
Leonardo: “Aurora, I’m really fine.”
Serena was relieved. At first she ate shyly. But seeing him pick up the fish bones, she felt relieved and ate with appetite.
From the other side, Alice also entered this restaurant accompanied by some people.
And they came in a reserved room.
The Giordano family was also well known in North City, and Alice Giordano was the daughter who had been lost and then found. Everyone knew that she was the precious pearl of the Giordano family and was received by everyone.
At this moment, the second daughter of the Rossi family took Alice by the arm and said, “Alice, this boiled fish is very famous. I don’t know if you have come here yet. Today it’s on me and you can order whatever you want.”
Alice probably had a hard life before. Although she was rich now, she felt that her interlocutor was making fun of her. Suddenly, she sneered, “What do you mean? That I never came here? You want to tease me about how I look like when I am not the daughter of the Giordano family?”
The woman’s face immediately changed, and she explained in a low voice, “Alice, that’s not what I meant.”
“Who tell you that you can call me by my name? Did I give you my permission? ”
Alice Giordano looked like a normal person only in front of Serena but when she arrived there, she became arrogant and unreasonable as if she had two personalities.
The woman was too frightened to speak again.
One of the people stepped forward and snorted coldly, “Miss Giordano, don’t take her seriously. Her family is going bankrupt. I guess she just wants to cheat you. Let’s go and have some meals on the second floor.”
So, the woman was left behind and the rest went up to the second floor.
Alice was still angry. Since she saw those documents that day, she was upset. She was not a calm person originally. Now she was easily irritable.
As she passed by a room, Alice suddenly saw a familiar figure.
She approached and looked further ahead.
It was Serena. When Alice was about to leave, the people around her suddenly asked, “Miss Giordano, what’s going on?”
Hearing this, Alice abruptly returned and shook her head, “It’s nothing. Let’s go.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
She entered another room with her companions, but after sitting down, she thought that the person sitting in front of Serena seemed to be a man.
And he looked familiar.
Who was he? Which man came with Serena to eat boiled fish?
Thinking about this, Alice decided to find out herself, so she stood up and said to the others, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
“Alice, let me come with you.”
“No, don’t follow me.”
Alice stared at the person and then left.
After she left, the people of the room suddenly became angry.
“She really thinks she is a princess. She takes advantage of her position to bully others. It’s disgusting to watch her.”
“I mean, if she is not Mr. Giordano’s daughter, I’ll ignore her.”
“If we get the chance, we will let her know that we are not so accommodating.”
“Come on, guys, when she is here, you flatter her one by one. Now when she leaves, you start talking about it behind. Look at you!”
*
Alice did not know these things. After leaving the room, she walked toward the one she had passed by a few minutes earlier.
The room was not locked, so she took a peek and saw that Serena was inside.
She also happened to see the man sitting across from her.
It was Leonardo.
How were Serena and Leonardo together? Alice asked herself. Suddenly Leonardo, who was sitting across from her, poured Serena a glass of juice, “You eat so spicy food. Drink this to digest the fire.”
Between his eyebrows and eyes were kind and thoughtful but Alice could see that something was wrong.
Was it possible that Leonardo could like Serena? Did he want to do something to his own sister-in-law?
After realizing this, the expression on Alice’s face became more complicated. Just as she was about to rush in and drag Serena away, a thought suddenly formed in her mind, and she stopped.
After a while, Alice moved again.
She blinked.
If… If Leonardo was really interested in Serena, wouldn’t it be a good thing to keep them together? And then…
Alice had an idea.
In that case, she can say that the owner of the button was actually Leonardo, so they could be both satisfied?
As soon as she thought about it, Alice could no longer control her emotions. She took out her cell phone, turned on her camera, and pointed it at the two people inside. After finding a moment to take a picture, she took the cell phone and leaned against the corner.
Her heart was beating so fast that Alice closed her eyes.
Serena, didn’t take it out on me… I’m too… I’m doing this for your sake.
Cristian was moody and crippled. If you married him, he will never treat you well and maybe it was better to be with Leonardo.
Alice went into a trance. In her mind, she said many good things to Serena and felt relieved.
She had stolen Serena’s identity, but in spite of everything Serena was still the only reason in the world why she should feel guilty.
After this was over, Alice would do everything for Serena.
So Alice told her friends that she would not go back and let them eat alone.
Then Alice asked a waiter to open a private room for herself next to Serena’s, sat down and waited.
