So , she kept quiet However , Layla wasnt done .

She asked again , So when it was just the two of you in that room , what exactly happened ? Samantha lowered her gaze , avoiding eye contact .

She filtered out all the strange , intimate moments they had shared and simply said , He grew me a check for two million as compensation You took it , right ? Laylas eyes lit up .

Two million bucks ? Thats life changing money ! Although Layla let out a dramatic sigh , she still understood .

You really are just an inexperienced young woman , turning down that much easy money ! If it were me , Id take it first and think about it later .

Samanthabit her lip , feeling a little wronged but too timid to argue Layla sighed , exasperated but understanding her way of thinking Forget it.

Lets just call it taking the high road for once .

Two million ? whatever .

Your pride is worth more than that , right ? If youre into him , great .

If not , just ignore him .

Yeah ! Samantha nodded enthusiastically as she responded .

Her eyes spackled , and her smile was bright and carefree , The two of them curled up on the tiny bed in the cramped apartment Life was tough , but at least their hearts were warm , filled with love and companionship .

The next day , Leonardo sat at his table , absentmindedly flipping his phone over and over .

It was as it waiting for some important messges .

Every time Simon came in to deliver documents , he noticed the same small movement .

At first , he didnt think much of it .

But when it kept happening , he couldnt help but teel a little curious .

Mr.

Garrett , are you waiting for some important news ? No , Leonardo replied .

if theres anything you need , just let me know .

Ill take care of it .

This isnt something you can handle .

Well , why dont you try me ? As his assistant , Simons job was to solve problems and ease Leonardos burdens , no matter what .

Leonardos expression darkened slightly , appearing as if he were annoyed .

Bring me the proposal for the new product line this quarter .

Then schedule a meeting for the afternoon .

After that , I need to visit the studio to check on the site and review the samples .

Just like that , the switch inside him flipped and he was now fully focused on work .

His employees were more than used to this kind of intensity , so no one ever slacked out .

After all , Leonardo paid well .

Simon nodded and replied , Yes , sir .

Ill take care of it right away .

As he left his office , be felt something was off .

Leonardo seemed unusually tense today , almost as if he was using work to distract himself from something The moment the door closed , Leonardo flipped his phone or again , checking the screen .

Aside from a few unexpected work messages , there was nothing new .

There were no new messages at all , which meant that from last night until now , Samantha hadnt considered adding him on WhatsApp .

The more he thought about it , the more annoyed he became .

Then , he stood up and dialed Simon .

Move the meeting up .

Were starting now .

Y Yes , sir ! Simon had no idea who had plssed Leonardo off so badly .

As far as he knew , no o no one even had the nerve to make him angry
