Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love



The hall was still filled with guests. All of them had smiles on their faces but with different meanings behind them. Some smiles were jealous and calculating, but some were from genuine enjoyment of the event.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Matthew had always disliked Cillian. He was like a fly around Lucy, impossible to drive away.

Lucy was always on Cillian's side. If Matthew were to do something wrong, Lucy would blame him. Matthew could only bottle up his intense hatred toward Cillian.

Matthew continued to scrutinize Cillian with his gaze, making Cillian feel uncomfortable. He smiled and said, “Mr. Leon, you're making me feel uncomfortable."

"If you're uncomfortable, then perhaps you shouldn't have come."

Matthew retorted, implying that Cillian should just get the hell out.

Cillian shrugged and said, "I don't have a choice. Lucy wanted me to come, and she sent me the invitation personally. Wouldn't it be ungrateful of me to refuse her gracious invitation?"

His statement left Matthew speechless as he clenched his fists in frustration.

Damn him! Why was Cillian still sitting beside him when he clearly expressed his hostility toward him?

"Mr. Leon, you don't have to hate me that much. Lucy is just a friend to me."

Matthew was still skeptical. "Are you sure about that?"

Cillian chuckled. "Mr. Leon, I can see how much you care about my ex-classmate. Lucy is indeed a wonderful woman, so I hope you'll make her happy."

"Of course. I don't need you to remind me. I'll make Lucy happy, and I'll give her the world."

"My apologies, Mr. Leon. If only I had your ambition and courage, I wouldn't be tormenting myself like this."

Matthew had never seen Cillian this depressed before. It seemed like something was trapping him, and he was unable to break free.

He had lost the vigor and spirit of his usual self, so Matthew politely asked what happened.

Cillian was relieved that someone

was finally willing to listen to his woes, so he opened up. "I think I've fallen for someone, but I don't know how she feels about me. I'm too scared to ask her either, so I'm in a dilemma right now."

Matthew watched him warily. Cillian was not talking about Lucy, was he?

"Mr. Leon, relax. There's no need to glare at me like that. Trust me, I never lie. I'm not talking about Lucy."

"As long as it's not Lucy." Matthew looked visibly relaxed now, so he continued, "Tell me about her. Maybe I can help." "Really?"

How was an outsider going to help him with his feelings, especially a cruel businessman like Matthew? Could he even offer assistance in matters of love? Cillian looked at him skeptically.

“Are you sure you can help me, Mr. Leon? Just having you listen to my troubles already means a lot to me, considering how hostile you were toward me before."

Matthew cleared his throat. "Just speak your mind. Don't keep it bottled up. Who knows, maybe I can help?"

He sounded as if he were a relationship expert, but Cillian was well aware that in front of Lucy, he was nothing but a baby.
