I won't go to the press conference unless you tieup and bringthere." "I guess that could work" Leonard plastered a smile on his face and looked at me. "You're not doing too well now. Don't you think it's reasonable if you show up in a wheelchair and have a problem speaking? With that said, you don't have to worry. I won't do that to you. I swear." What Leonard said only madefeel disgusted and chilled to the core. Was he actually thinking about doing it? Had he changed, or had he always been like this? I shot him an agitated look. "I'm not alone and without friends and family. If you do anything to me, they won't let you off easily." "They? Who do you mean? Is it Alisa or Jill? Surely, you don't mean Jack, do you? Why do you think he treats you this well? Don't givethat true love crap either. I don't buy it." Leonard approachedstep by step. "Jack comes from a truly powerful background, so what makes you think he'd want someone like you? You're just a lady who's on death's door. You've always known what moves to make, Eva. Do I really have to explain your situation to you? "I was able to fight off the pressure everyone gaveand marry you back then, but do you think anyone could do what I've done?" Leonard's eyes were laced with mockery and nothing else.
I had no idea if he was mockingor Jack.
"I've never thought about marrying him, Leonard. Jack is a friend, nothing more. Moreover, you wouldn't have marriedif it wasn't because you wanted to exact revenge on me. Am I right?" My tone was calm, and there weren't many emotions in my eyes either. As a matter of fact, I knew Leonard had changed. The three years of marriage didn't mean much. It was just that I hadn't been able to see the truth.
I used to think that he resentedbecause I "betrayed" him when the truth was anything but that. He had changed a long tago.

At the very least, you can't ignore what's happening in front of you now. "Jasper will remain in the country, and Alisa will be tied up in court. How long do you think Green Group will last? Also, let's talk about the fresh graduates in your little studio. Do you think they have any chances of landing a good job in the future?" Leonard looked atwith a grin. Every word he uttered was laced with sinister and malice.
I took a deep breath, and my voice grew cold as well. "You can't manipulate and fool everyone, Leonard. These things will get resolved. It's only a matter of time. I won't make any concessions." If I gave way to Leonard, it would be the sas making a deal with the devil.
He picked up the cooled coffee from the table and gently took a sip. "It's a shame, though. Tis what you lack the most. Isn't that true? Here's something interesting I heard, Eva. It seems like Alisa has reserved a wedding gown, and she's set to marry next year. Do you want her to be trapped in a legal battle with Jasper the whole time?"
Leonard rose to his feet and walked over to my side. Then, he held my hand. "Don't be silly, Eva Jasper will ve. keep pestering Alisa for as long as he lives. The Pope family is indeed formidable, but will they fight againstfor their future daughter-in-law?
