Only you in my love

Chapter 714 Give Himself To Her

The bath tower covered Michelle's eyes. As a result, she couldn't see anything at all. She waited a long

time until she could no longer hold herself back. "What's wrong, Leon?"

Her soft voice was enough to snap him out of his thoughts. His whole body suddenly froze. It was then

he realized that there was only less than a centimeter space between their faces. If Michelle's question

came a second later, he would have kissed her by then.

"It was nothing." Leon had finally recovered upon realizing what he was about to do. He quickly let go

of the bath towel, letting it fall down to the floor behind Michelle.

Now that the thing that was blocking her eyesight was taken off, Michelle could finally see again. She

was surprised to find a red-eared Leon. Since he was standing close to her, she could clearly see his

red ears.

"Leon, your ears are so red." Michelle blinked rapidly, wondering at what could possibly make Leon

look so flustered.

"Oh...I..." Leon's first instinct was to deny it, but they were too close to each other. He could still feel the

heat coming out of his body in waves. His throat was a little dry and hoarse so he could only let out five

words from his mouth. "I need to go out."

"What? Okay then." Michelle looked even more confused by his reaction. She watched him walk out of

the door when she suddenly remembered that she had to go out to the yard to air dry her hair. She

hurried after him.

As soon as she was downstairs, she found Leon standing in front of the water dispenser. He finished

two glasses of cold water in a row.

'Is the water really that delicious?'

Michelle was confused. She walked over to him and poured herself a glass of her own. After drinking it,

she realized that there was nothing really special about it. 'Why is Leon drinking so much then?'

Leon watched Michelle drink her own glass of cold water from the corner of his eye. Then, he looked

down on his own empty glass. At that point, he couldn't remember how much he had already drunk.

Upon noticing the confusion in Michelle's eyes, Leon tried to come up with an excuse. "The water

tastes good. It's a little sweet."

Michelle had always believed whatever Leon said. And since he told her that the water was sweet, she

began to believe it as well. She took another half a glass and drank it, hoping it would taste sweet this

time.

But she still couldn't taste anything sweet.

She frowned and asked, "Are you sure we are drinking water from the same dispenser? Or is there

something wrong with my taste buds?"

Now that Leon had drunk a few glasses of cold water, he was able to calm down. Upon hearing

Michelle's question, he suddenly burst out laughing.

"No." There was a hint of a smile in his voice. "You probably couldn't taste the water's sweetness

because you've been eating too much sweet food."

Michelle tilted her head and asked, "Is that so?"

"Don't forget that you just ate your birthday cake last night. That one is sweet." Leon didn't want her to

think too much about it, so he quickly changed the topic. "Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has

already passed, are you going back to the club tomorrow? I think Austin will be too busy to go with you

for midnight snacks. If you want some company, you can call me instead."

'How does he know about my midnight snacks with Austin?'

After she had turned her phone on, Austin had told her that he was working for a company near their

club.

He had invited her out for midnight snacks.

But how did Leon know about this?

Of course, Leon knew more than that. He also knew that she also had another girl with her, who looked

like a high school student, whenever she went out with Austin.

And since the two were never alone together, Leon never mention it before.

Looking at Michelle's confused expression, Leon realized that he had inadvertently spilled the beans.

He quickly explained, "I tried going to you a few times, but I found out that you went out with your

friends for late night snacks. So I didn't want to disturb you."

This time, he wasn't lying. At the time of his discovery, he was just a step behind Austin. And then it

happened again and again.

Back then, he hadn't figured out his feelings for Michelle, so he hadn't told her before.

"Really? You came to me a few times?" Michelle's eyes lit up. "Don't ever think that you are bothering

me. Feel free to come to me anytime. You can never disturb me no matter what I'm doing."

There was a certainty in her eyes as she said this. Leon found himself hesitating a bit before finally

believing her. He smiled. "You better keep your words then and don't even think about breaking them."

"Never." Michelle raised her chin and held out her little finger, hooking it a bit. "Pinkie swear."

"Very well then. Pinkie swear." Naturally, Leon was willing to indulge her, hoping that she would

remember her promise. He hooked his little finger to hers and said, "Seal it."

Then their thumbs met.

"Alright." Just as Leon was about to let go of her finger, Michelle continued to hold on to him and said,

"Wait a minute! I actually learned something new, so we can do it like this."

Michelle spread out his palm and pressed it against hers. She brushed their palms together.

"So now, we have two copies of our promise. One for you and one for me."

Leon looked at her intently.

The whole thing was childish, but Leon felt his heart skip a beat with inexplicable joy.

Just as Michelle was about to withdraw her hand, he grabbed it again.

Leon was holding onto her hand tightly. His palm was cold, but she suddenly felt so hot.

Her heart was beating wildly against her chest. It was as if she could hear it banging loudly. She tried to

take back her hand. "Leon."

She was so shocked by Leon's odd behavior.

She couldn't believe it. If Leon continued to hold her hand like this, her heart might just jump out. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

She could acutely feel his warmth fusing into her fingertips. And from there, she could feel it flowing up

to her face. Her cheeks were already starting to heat up. Michelle was aware that her face was already

turning red because of shyness. She was afraid that Leon might find out, so she quickly lowered her

head and used her hair to cover her face.

Leon, on the other hand, thought that he had frightened her so he immediately let go of her hand.

He then leaned over and tried to speak as gently as possible. "Michelle, I have something to ask you."

"What is it?" Michelle asked in a low voice.

Taking a deep breath, he pondered on whether he should finally say it. But after a moment of thought,

he decided to be subtle about it.

"Do I treat you well?"

Michelle raised her head as soon as she felt the blush on her face fade a bit. Her pale skin had always

had a pinkish glow, so Leon didn't notice anything unusual about her face. He only stared at her

expectantly, waiting for her answer.

"You treat me well," Michelle answered sincerely.

Leon asked, "Do you hate me then?"

"No, I don't." Michelle shook her head. She didn't hate him. In fact, she really liked him.

Leon smiled faintly. He thought to himself, 'She doesn't hate me. Does this mean she like me then? But

the question now is how much.'

"I remember you telling me that you want to have a boyfriend as handsome as me, right?"

"Yes." Michelle nodded her head as well. And inside her heart, she added, 'I want to have a boyfriend

like you.'

"Do you really think there is a person in the world who is as handsome as me?"

"Well, no," Michelle answered confidently. 'How can there be someone in the world who is as

handsome as Leon? But even if there is, he'll still be nothing compared to Leon.'

Leon chuckled at her response. "Do you like my face?"

Pursing her lips, Michelle stared intently at his handsome face.

'He's only asking whether I like his face or not. He's not asking if I like him or not, right? In this case, I

should say yes.'

She hesitated for a moment before answering carefully, "Yes."

"How about my legs? Do you like them as well?"

"Yes, I do." Michelle was starting to get confused by his line of questioning.

Raising his eyebrows, Leon smiled. "If you like them, I'll let you have them."

"What?" Michelle's face had also turned pale. "You want to skin your face?"

The smile on Leon's face disappeared.

"Or cut your legs off?" Michelle was so frightened by this that she stepped back. "No, no, no. I don't

want them. I don't like them anymore."

Leon was speechless by this.

He meant to give himself to her.

Why was she thinking of skinning his face

and cutting off his legs?
