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

Chapter 5

Melanie saw her daughter coming down the stairs and asked, “Lulu, it’s so late now. Where are you going at this hour?”

Shooting her a cold look, Lucy said, “Where I go is none of your business.”

She ignored Melanie’s look of disapproval and walked out of the house.

Melanie’s face turned pale with anger as she scolded, “The older you get, the more rebellious you become!”

Hearing that statement, Lucy merely shook her head and continued walking toward the Lamborghini limousine parked at the door.

When Matthew saw Lucy walking toward him, he opened the door for her with a smile.

Although she was surprised to see that he actually came to pick her up, she got in the car anyway. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

As soon as she closed the door, the car sped off.

Lucy, who was seated in the passenger seat, turned to look at the man driving the car. She had to admit that he was very handsome, so much so that it was captivating. Even his side profile was enough to make a woman squeal.

Not only was he oozing with charisma, but he had an air of grandeur about him. He was definitely not your average Joe.

Wait a minute, where had she seen him before? She could not figure it out! There was a gleam in Matthew’s eyes when he turned and saw her beautiful face. He asked, “Where do you want to eat, Lulu?”

His deep voice seemed to pull at her heartstrings, causing her to blush.

She dated Timothy for five years but had never sat in the front passenger seat of his car.

That spot was always reserved for her sister, Luna.

Haha, how ridiculous that was!

Matthew’s heart ached when he saw her get lost in her own thoughts.

They happened to be at a red light, so he stopped the car and gave her a pat on the shoulder. Lucy, who was caught off guard, flinched before shooting him an alert look.

Matthew could sense her wariness and sighed. “You haven’t told me where you wanted to eat yet. I didn’t mean to touch you.”

Lucy’s face reddened, and she said awkwardly, “You can make the call.”

She was not a picky eater, so she was fine with anything as long as it did not taste bad.

Matthew smiled. “I’ll take you to a place I know. They serve pretty good food.”

“Great, thank you.” Lucy could feel her heart aching.

In the five years she dated Timothy, he never once took her out for dinner! She was the one bringing him out on dinner dates.

She did not realize how stupid she was until today!

It was obvious that Timothy did not love her from the start, and it was her fault for not noticing.

She thought that Timothy treated everyone as coldly as he treated her, but it turned out that he was acting that way because he had given all his affection to Luna!

The car stopped at the entrance of The Jewel Kitchen. Lucy was shocked when she got out of the car. Business at The Jewel Kitchen was always booming, so reservations were required. Without one, it was nearly impossible for them to get a table.

“Are we eating here?” Lucy asked when she saw Matthew walking inside.

He turned to look at her with a confused expression. He asked, “Is there a problem?”

Sighing, Lucy told him, “You need to make reservations at least a day in advance at this place or you won’t be able to get a table.”

Matthew’s lips curled up into a smile as he reached for Lucy’s hand.

She could not hide the shock in her eyes. She looked down at his hand that was holding hers and asked in a panic, “W-What are you doing?”
