At this mont, even though the sunglasses on Leonard's face were blocking most of his expression, Leonhart was still very much aware of his anger and reluctance.
"Lyn's problem was indeed an accident. But since things have beco clear, if you want to regain the initiative, you can't stay in bed all day!"
Leonard looked at Leonhart suspiciously. "What do you really think? Two days ago, you urged to marry Lyn as soon as possible. Now that you've said this kind of thing, do you think I'd believe it?"
Leonhart glanced at him calmly. "After so many years, I've only just realized that you have such a deep grudge against ."
"Really?!" Leonard smirked. "You've never really cared about . Apart from making the heir, I never saw you care about . Now that you're saying that my marriage to Lyn was an accident, it's all far-fetched! Dad, don't you know that Lyn and Luke used to be classmates? Don't you know that Uncle Lockhart has ties to the Grahams?"
Leonard's stubborn tone was filled with hatred that he was not even aware of.
When he left the Adler family's ho, he really wanted to leave his cold and cruel family for a while.
Now, after returning after a long absence, nothing has changed, and there is only an unavoidable disappointnt.
Leonard stared blankly at the river in the courtyard, took out a cigarette case and lit a cigarette when he was upset.
"Father, if it were you, what would you do? I pretend to be sick every day not because my powers are plumting. I pretend to be seriously ill so that my enemies don't see as an enemy anymore. With that their vigilance will loosen and I have a chance to attack."
Leonhart sighed softly, took the cigarette case from the wooden table, and rubbed it in his hand.
He looked at the cigarette in his hand, his tone low. "You are correct, but you are slow to do it. The world changes every second, don't you understand?"
Leonard's face beca a bit unclear.
If he did it now, he was afraid that llisa would realize that everything was his plan.
He had made her worried and followed him to Bandung in disguise. But his real concern was that when lissa found out the truth, Leonard was afraid she would shun him again.
In this life, no one can stand to see their soulmate go a second ti.
He doesn't know if he will be able to live this life again when lissa actually left him for the umpteenth ti.
At this ti, Leonard was silent for a long ti.
Seeing him smoking continuously, Leonhart finally couldn't stand it, then shook his head and sighed. "You lack confidence! Tonight, there is a big dinner banquet, and all seven big families in Bandung will attend."
"If you really want to take down the other branch families, you should co out and show your face from now on. Your ban from leaving the house will be lifted in the afternoon. You should think carefully about whether you are prepared for this or not!"
Leonard couldn't help but be stunned to see the golden invitation. "Seriously?"
"That's all I want to say, think carefully about my words earlier. As for the servant, whatever is on your mind, you must still avoid suspicion. After all, you still have a marriage contract and many eyes are watching you. You and the maid are sleeping in a tent, what will people think?!"
Leonard looked at his father indifferently. He just felt sothing very strange.
For the first ti in his life, he received teachings and warnings from his father.
Did this old man take the wrong dicine?!
Leonard smoothly accepted the invitation, and after he cald his mind, he said, "That maid is very important to . No matter what your intentions are, I hope you won't bother him. Whatever I do, it's all for him."
Leonhart took a lighter and lit his cigarette, raising his eyebrows as he exhaled the smoke. "Since he is very important to you, protect him with your own strength. If you don't have the ability to protect those around you, then you don't deserve to be called a man."
After hearing this, Leonard slowly stood up. "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
"One more piece of advice. Don't touch Lyn before you officially attack her. The Grahams have been very active over the last two years, and they've worked closely with several other big families!"
Leonard looked beside Leonhart, he couldn't tell the complex feeling in his heart.
He leaned over and stubbed out the cigarette, paused for a few seconds then asked, "Why are you telling all this?"
Leonhart blinked at him, calmly answering, "Because you are my son."
Such an explanation caused Leonard's eyes to tremble suddenly.
He blinked, and turned around without saying a word.
As he walked away, he raised his eyes to look up at the light blue sky and muttered, "Thank you! "
Leonhart saw him ride behind the car in front of the door. He then sipped his tea with a cigarette in his hand.
If he does not know that his wife has done so many things behind his back, he probably won't repair the father-son relationship they have now.
Hopefully, everything is not too late!
Not long after, Kevin turned from the door, looked at the cigarette in Leonhart's hand, and whispered. "Patriarch, haven't you stopped smoking for years?"
Leonhart followed his words and took out his cigarette butt. "Have you sent him back? "
Kevin nodded, and honestly said, "On the way ho, the young master asked a question."
"What is the question?"
Kevin looked down, deliberately avoiding Leonhart's gaze. "He asked if you're seriously ill..."
Leonhart was surprised, and then laughed loudly. "Hahaha, that stinky brat!"
Seeing he laughed without any discomfort, Kevin said again, "Perhaps your actions today left him very confused, which is why the young master thinks this is just an illusion."
Leonhart stood with his hands behind his back and walked into the flower garden. "Yeah, I can't fault his doubts. If I were in his position, I wouldn't be able to accept this reality for a while."
"Young master Leonard will eventually understand your good intentions. In the future, he will definitely understand."
Leonhart raised his hand and patted Kevin on the shoulder, he smiled without saying a word.
...
At eight o'clock in the morning, Leonard returned to the villa.
He climbed the stairs slowly, but stopped near the hall.
At this ti, the butler and the other maids were deftly cleaning the living room.
Everyone seed to be busy with their work, except for himself.
Leonard stood there for a long ti, until the butler caught a glimpse of him, and then hastily stepped forward to greet him. "Young Master, welco back, your breakfast is upstairs and your little maid is waiting for you in the master bedroom."
Hearing this, Leonard raised his hand and took off his sunglasses. "Go and deliver breakfast to my study, I'll eat it myself."
The butler said, "Ah?" His face looked confused. "What about your personal servant? He hasn't eaten either."
"Just send my share."
