Chapter 1034 Interrogation Chain
He was so close to her that Isabella felt completely uncomfortable.
The next moment, she turned and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, her back to him, and said coldly, "You want to talk to me about Bronte, don't you? Talk about how there's nothing between you two, and you're just playing around with her?"
"Did Susan tell you that?" Leon asked, looking at Isabella's back from six feet away.
"Isn't that what you wanted her to tell me?" Isabella retorted angrily.
Leon silently walked up behind Isabella and reached out to hold her shoulders.
As soon as he touched her, Isabella instinctively shook off Leon's hand. "Don't touch me!"
Seeing Isabella's agitated reaction, Leon's hands froze in mid-air for a moment, then he repeatedly assured her, "Don't get upset, I won't touch you!"
Isabella stepped aside, hugging her shoulders with her arms, turning her face away, ignoring him and not looking at him.
The next moment, Leon looked at the indifferent Isabella and explained seriously, "The situation with Bronte was really forced. I had to deal with her, but I promise, I absolutely did nothing to cheat on you!"
Upon hearing this, Isabella sneered. "How do I know you didn't actually fall for her?"
"I can't guarantee it, but I can swear on my life. If I had sex with her, let me die a horrible death!" Leon suddenly cursed.
Hearing his curse, Isabella's heart panicked.
However, not wanting him to see her nervousness, she temporarily hid her panicked expression.
Noticing the trace of panic in Isabella's eyes, Leon confidently smiled.
"What are you smiling at?" Isabella asked guiltily.
Leon took a step forward and said, "You still care about me, you can't fool me!"
"Don't come any closer!" Isabella shouted as he approached her again.
Leon immediately stopped, just a step away from her.
"After all, you're Milo's father. I just don't want Milo to be without a dad!" Isabella said insincerely.
At this point, Leon could no longer control his emotions. Ignoring everything else, he stepped forward and hugged Isabella's waist, lowering his head and saying emotionally, "You can't be without me either!"
"Stop being so shameless, I..." Isabella was about to retort.
But Leon domineeringly lowered his head and sealed her lips.
Isabella's retort was immediately swallowed back, replaced by a passionate and intense kiss.
For some reason, at this moment, Isabella felt like it was the first time he kissed her. Her mind went blank, and her whole body felt like it was electrified, trembling slightly.
Feeling her tremble, Leon tightened his arms, holding her tightly as if he wanted to embed her into his own body.
After being kissed and held by him for several long seconds, Isabella finally came to her senses.
The next moment, Isabella frantically pushed against his chest.
But the more she struggled, the tighter he held her, until she couldn't breathe.
It wasn't until Isabella's face turned pale, her heart panicked, and sweat of fear appeared on her forehead that he finally let her go.
The nearly suffocated Isabella finally got to breathe fresh air and coughed twice.
"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Seeing Isabella coughing violently with her head down, Leon realized he had been too reckless.
After several seconds, Isabella finally recovered.
At this point, Isabella pushed Leon away and angrily shouted, "Are you trying to kill me?"
Sensing she was okay, Leon smiled, then reached out to touch Isabella's short hair and said, "Now that's more like you!"
"What do you mean by that?" Isabella glared at Leon, dissatisfied.
Seeing her aggressive look, Leon reached out and held Isabella's hand, his eyes full of affection. He didn't speak for a moment, just silently held her hand.
At this point, Isabella's anger had already subsided by half, but she still wanted to pull her hand back. However, Leon tightly held her hand in his palm and wouldn't let go.
"These days, I've neglected you, and it's all my fault. But if I didn't do this, you and Milo might be in danger. I can handle anything, but you and Milo must not be harmed in any way," Leon said slowly, his eyes full of cherish and love for Isabella.
His gaze softened Isabella's heart, and she no longer tried to pull her hand away. However, her tone still carried blame. "You did it to deceive Bronte, so you..."
Isabella didn't finish her sentence because she didn't know what to say next.
"There's nothing between me and her. It's just her wishful thinking. I've warned her many times that I could never fall in love with her or have any ambiguous relationship with her," Leon explained seriously.
Hearing this, Isabella felt satisfied in her heart, but her expression still questioned, "You two didn't have sex?"
Hearing this, Leon smiled awkwardly but still shook his head. He answered very firmly, "No."
Upon hearing this, Isabella couldn't help but pouted, "There's no way to verify that."
"Oh my! What will it take for you to believe me?" Leon was already at his wit's end, rubbing his forehead in frustration.
Seeing Leon's embarrassed look, Isabella couldn't help but smile.
Seeing her smile, Leon relaxed a bit and also smiled.
Then, Isabella quickly restrained her smile, but the atmosphere in the room had completely changed.
At this point, Isabella sternly warned, "This matter isn't over yet. I will definitely continue to investigate. If I find out you really had sex with Bronte, I will absolutely leave you!"
"I'm confident about this because it's absolutely impossible," Leon said with a smile.
"By the way, what about the photo she sent me last time? Don't think you can brush it off!" Isabella suddenly remembered the WhatsApp photo Bronte had sent her last time.
The next moment, Isabella hurriedly found her phone and quickly pulled up the photo to show Leon.
Isabella had wanted to delete this photo but never did because it was evidence. He couldn't deny it, even though she had never looked at it again since then because each time she saw it, it felt like a knife stabbing her heart.
Leon took the phone, glanced at the photo, and said, "Didn't I explain this to you? There was a social event that day, I got drunk, and Bronte took me back to the hotel."
"Then I can only believe you met a client, got drunk, and Bronte took you back. But you can't prove you didn't have drunken sex, can you?" Isabella asked with a frown.
