Chapter 186
Leopold slowly rolled down the car window, his gaze sweeping across the tall building opposite, "See that?"
Agnes looked at the towering office building in confusion, the words "ZL Group" clearly visible on the top. She turned to Leopold, "Can you see that coffee shop from your company?"
Leopold glanced at her indifferently, his tone cold, "The Neville Family has people everywhere." He knew that Gerald's people had definitely seen Agnes meeting with Michael and immediately reported it to Leopold's office.
Throughout the journey, Leopold remained silent, and Agnes naturally didn't dare to bring up the matter of the late-night snack. She could only watch helplessly as the car drove into the Neville Manor.
Finally, Agnes couldn't help but speak up, "Aren't you going to the company?"
Leopold's voice was low and cold, "Go to the company? You've already gone to sleep with Michael, why should I go to the company?"
Agnes was stunned, feeling a bit helpless. She hurriedly explained, "Leopold, can we talk properly? This matter is indeed my fault, but I would never sleep with him, rest assured!"
Leopold still didn't respond, his face gloomy.
The car stopped at the entrance of the manor, and Leopold got out first, not even giving Agnes a glance, and walked straight towards the villa.
Agnes watched his back, feeling a surge of frustration. Normally, no matter where they were, he would gently help her out of the car, but this time...
"Leopold!" she called out loudly.
Finally, Leopold in front stopped, and turned around to look at her, his face expressionless.
Agnes bit her lip, angrily saying, "Help me out of the car!"
Leopold glanced at her, a hint of mockery in his eyes, "I'm the one who's angry, and you dare to act spoiled."
"Get out yourself." He responded briefly, turning and continuing towards the villa.
Agnes was so angry she wanted to pull him back and give him a beating! She took out her phone and sent Leopold a message: [If you don't care about me, I won't get out of the car!]
She bet he wouldn't come to get her. After all, the Nevilles never liked her, and if she didn't appear in the Neville Manor, maybe everyone would be happier.
However, thinking of this made her feelings even more complicated.
She knew that this matter wasn't Leopold's fault, but she wasn't wrong either! It was all Michael's fault. Why did he have to meet her, making her soft-hearted and ending up in this situation!
She picked up her phone again and sent Michael a message: [Don't wait for me, never wait for me! Even if I'm kicked out of the Neville Family, I won't be with you, you should give up it!]
Michael was still at the coffee shop, and seeing the message, a smile appeared on his lips. Sensing her anger in the words, Michael replied: [What? Did you have a fight with Leopold?]
Agnes quickly replied: [Fight? Leopold couldn't be bothered to argue with me. I just feel that your actions make me very uncomfortable, understand?]
Michael laughed, finding Agnes more and more adorable.
Agnes refused to get out of the car, and the driver didn't dare to move, so he could only wait quietly.
Sitting alone in the car, the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. After waiting for more than ten minutes, Leopold still didn't come out to get her.
Finally, Agnes felt a bit deflated.
Considering how good Leopold usually was to her, and since this time it was because of Michael, she decided to get out of the car, and Leopold was completely blameless this time.
She pushed open the car door, changed her shoes, and as soon as she walked into the villa's entrance, she saw a scene that made her furious.
In the living room, Leopold was chatting with Tiffany, and Lydia came down from upstairs, heading straight for Leopold.
The clothes she had dirtied earlier had been changed at some point.
Leopold actually didn't avoid Lydia's action of rushing over, and Lydia tightly hugged his waist, "Leopold, you're back!"
She called him so affectionately, it really made people think Lydia was Leopold's wife. What was even more infuriating was that Leopold didn't seem to have any intention of pushing her away. He said to Lydia in a low voice, "If you're bored, there's a party tonight, you can go have some fun."
Lydia looked up at him, her eyes full of anticipation, "Leopold, are you going?"
Lydia still wouldn't let go of Leopold, and Leopold gently pulled her away, his tone cold, "I have something to do tonight, I can't go. If you want to go, you can ask Candice to accompany you."
Lydia looked at Agnes, as if she didn't see her, and held Leopold's arm, "Leopold, I really want you to go with me, but if you're busy, I won't go either!"
Tiffany smiled and tried to persuade, "Leopold, don't always be busy with work, you should accompany Lydia tonight, go."
Agnes felt uncomfortable seeing this scene. Why did they rely on Leopold so much, as if it was all taken for granted?
Leopold looked up and saw Agnes standing at the door, coldly saying, "Come here."
Agnes didn't refuse, obediently walking towards him. In front of Lydia, she smiled slightly, "Lydia, have you thought about what I told you last time?"
Lydia was obviously stunned, with a bit of confusion in her eyes.
Agnes chuckled, "If you really want to be Leopold's niece, then you should keep a distance from him. Hugging Leopold as you did just now is really not okay, I'll get jealous, understand?"
Since they didn't treat her as Leopold's wife, why should she care about their feelings?
Lydia's face changed immediately, lowering her head and apologizing softly, "I'm sorry, Agnes, I'll be careful in the future and won't hug Leopold anymore, please don't be angry, okay?"
Her behavior was very humble, and others thought Lydia was afraid of Agnes.
Tiffany patted the table angrily, "Agnes, do you usually bully Lydia like this in Lumina City?"
Agnes couldn't help but laugh coldly, feeling speechless, so she decided to make it clear. She smiled slightly, answering neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Grandma, don't misunderstand, Lydia is the daughter of Leopold's savior, I've always wanted to pamper her like he does. But after all, we have no blood relationship, and now that Leopold and I have married, I think she should keep a certain distance from Leopold. Don't you agree?"
