Chapter 442
Leon was stunned as he looked at Cynthia in disbelief.
Probably because of his drunken state, he reacted a bit slowly, not understanding what Cynthia meant.
“T–that’s not what I meant,” Cynthia blushed, realizing what she said was inappropriate. She quickly
changed the topic, “Leon, the two of you were just fine. Why did you suddenly break up?”
“It’s like this,” Leon sighed.
He was incredibly frustrated at that moment and needed someone to talk to. So, he told Cynthia
everything that happened.
“That father and son pair is too much! You’ve helped their family time after time, but they ended up

character has always been very upright. There’s no way you’re someone shady and despicable. Yet, as
your girlfriend, not only did she distrust you, she even suspected you of coveting their money. What a
joke!” Cynthia said angrily, voicing out the injustice of it all.
“I don’t understand why Iris distrusts me so much either.” Leon was hurt.
Compared to how much Gilbert and Elder Young were smearing him, Iris’s distrust hurt him even
more!
“Leon, don’t be sad. With how amazing you are, there are plenty of women who like you! Iris might not
treasure you, but that’s her loss. You shouldn’t be so sad,” Cynthia consoled.
“There are plenty of women who like me? I doubt it. I’m not as amazing as you say!” Leon was
stunned, feeling a bit confused.
He was an orphan, and laughed at and looked at with disdain since he was young. In the past, girls
avoided him wherever he went. How could anyone like him?!
“How could there not be?! Like me, I like you a lot! Ever since you almost lost your life to save me after
I ate too many Energy Nurturing Pills, I found that I somehow fell for you,” Cynthia clenched her teeth
as she blurted out her feelings.
“What?”
“Y–you like me?”
Leon was shocked. He felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on him as he immediately sobered
up. After that, he looked like he just understood something as he forced out a smile, “Cynthia, I know

“I’m not joking around. I’m speaking the truth!” Cynthia made the decision. She suddenly rushed in front
of Leon and summoned up the courage to kiss him on the lips.
She was always a straightforward person and dared to express herself. It was a rare chance for her to
prove her feelings for Leon with her actions!
Leon’s eyes widened when he felt the warmth on his lips.
When he realized what was happening, he immediately jumped up, completely sobering up!
“Cynthia, you-” Leon looked at Cynthia in disbelief. He was completely stunned.
“Leon, I’m sure you know I’m not lying to you now. I do like you. As long as you’re willing, I can be your
girlfriend,” Cynthia said shyly. Her heart beat rapidly, worried that Leon would reject her.
“H–how could I?” Leon said.
He always treated Cynthia as a good friend, and never saw Cynthia in that light.
Cynthia’s sudden confession caught him completely off guard.
