Book:That Cold Keeps Me Warm Published:2024-5-1

“I’m not talking about that!”
“Who are you talking about?”
“I mean…” she carefully looked for appropriate wording to avoid the secret of Elizabeth’s pregnancy. She decided that since she wanted to fulfill others’ wishes, she had to do it to the end”Anyway, she loves you and needs you very much. You can’t leave her alone, or I will feel guilty. ”
“You mean she is pregnant?”He went straight to the point.
“You know?”She looked at him in surprise.
Sure enough!
Leon confirmed his guess. Elizabeth did use the fake news of pregnancy to alienate him from Avery.
“You are fooled!”He curled his lips with disdain. “I have never touched her. How could she be pregnant? Even if she is really pregnant, she is definitely not my child. ”
What? He didn’t touch her!
Avery was stunned.
“What? Don’t you believe me? ”
Did she really want him to have a relationship with other women?
“I…” she stammered.
It was easy to find out whether Elizabeth was pregnant or not. Modern medical equipment was like a lie detector in ancient times, and the results of the test would be known immediately. Moreover, there was a DNA test that could confirm the identity of the child. A smart man like him would not lie to her easily, but she was really surprised.
That day in the cafe, Elizabeth cried hysterically and heartbroken. Was it all fake?
She still couldn’t believe it.
Was she too stupid to be deceived?
“You idiot!”He was obviously a little angry. “The reason why she did this is that she wants you to leave me voluntarily, and you, a fool, unexpectedly believes her words unilaterally. Why don’t you ask me for confirmation on such an important thing?”
“I…” she was too shocked to speak.
She had always been focused on her work, and she was not good at dealing with love affairs. When she heard the news that Elizabeth was “pregnant”, she only wanted to stay away from Leon, and didn’t want to be a third party to destroy other people’s feelings.
“She, she is your girlfriend. How can I… how can I know whether you have…” it took her a long time to make a sound, and her face was as red as a red apple.
The two of them were so strange to each other before, but he could press her under his body. Moreover, Elizabeth was his real girlfriend. Who would associate the two words “innocent” with them? She had never thought of this possibility.
“You and Kevin are going to get married, but why didn’t you…” he teased her in the same tone as she did.
“Then, how can they be compared?”She bit her lips and said.
She didn’t like Kevin, so she deliberately kept a distance from him. As for Elizabeth, she liked Leon so much that she couldn’t get close to him. How could she avoid him.
“Why not?”He smiled faintly, “do you think I want anyone so casually? Not every woman can make me involuntarily… ”
This sentence showed Avery’s special position in his heart.
Her heart throbbed, full of joy and gratitude”To be honest, do you still want to marry Kevin now? “Holding her hand, Leon asked seriously.
It was as if she had been poured a basin of cold water, and she suddenly became sober after regaining her true love.
The wedding process had entered the last stage. How should she tell Kevin?
If she refused him now, it would not only embarrass him, but also hurt him. Although her fiance was a playboy, he was not an unpardonable bad guy. She really didn’t have the heart to hurt him like this.
“It’s not too late before you enter the hall. It’s not too late for you to say no now.”Leon seemed to see through her mind, so he persuaded, “you know you are unhappy, but why do you still watch yourself walk into a dead end? If you really want to be responsible for your original feelings, you should make it clear to Kevin, instead of letting him marry a woman full of resentment. Otherwise, you not only hurt yourself, but also hurt him for the rest of your life. ”
These words were just as she thought, but she did not have the courage to say it out.
“Don’t worry. I will stay with you and face this problem with you.”He hoped that his beloved woman could pluck up the courage to say no to the human pressure and the engagement.
After a long time, she finally nodded.
Happiness almost brushed past her, and this time she would not let it go easily.
“Mr. Leon, why are you here?”When Kevin came back from the bathroom, he was surprised to see Leon”Are you here to take wedding photos with Elizabeth? ”
Kevin thought he knew her well and smiled.
“Well, well…” Leon, who was about to tell the truth, was a little embarrassed when he saw the smile on his friend’s face”Ahem… I’m here to tell you something important. ”
He cleared his throat hard.
“Why are you in such a hurry? Can’t we talk about it later? I’m taking pictures with Avery! ”
In order not to give him too much stimulation, Leon and Avery kept a distance from each other and didn’t stand together intimately, so Kevin didn’t feel anything wrong.
“Here is the thing.”Leon said in one breath, “Avery and I love each other, but it’s too late. I hope you can break off the engagement with her and fulfill the two of us.”
These words were like thunder and lightning, shocking Kevin.
When did his fiancee learn how to play wild outside?
“I’m sorry that I didn’t mention it to you until you were about to get married.”Although he knew he was in the wrong, Leon still didn’t change his domineering attitude. “But let me put it bluntly. Whether you agree to break up with Avery or not, I will make her my girlfriend. It depends on you whether we will be friends in the future.”
What else could he do?
Kevin couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
He knew what kind of person Leon was. He would never let go of anything that he wanted. Moreover, his fiancee was looking at him affectionately and didn’t take him seriously at all. It only took one sentence to agree to break up with him, which could not change the established fact.
“You two love each other. What else do I have to say?”Now that he was destined to break up with Avery, he decided to be more beautiful. If he kept pestering her, people would think he was inferior and ridiculous”I’m sincerely convinced that I lose to you. As long as Avery is happy, I have nothing to say. ”
“Kevin, you…” hearing that Kevin agreed to break up with her without hesitation, Avery’s heart was full of gratitude and guilt”I’m really sorry. ”
“Don’t say that.”Kevin sighed, “I know I’m not doing well, so you always want to break up with me. I’m the one who should say sorry.”
He smiled gently, “you can leave now. I want to be alone for a while, okay?”
Leon had thought that Kevin, a playboy, would have a conflict with him in order to protect his man’s self-esteem. He didn’t expect that things would go so smoothly. Kevin even gave up the position of fiance without saying a word, which surprised and confused him.
But he was not in the mood to think too much. The only thing he wanted to do now was to find a place to get close to Avery.
Seeing the two of them embracing and leaving, Kevin couldn’t help but sigh slightly. His handsome face was covered with a layer of faint melancholy, which made people feel both heartbroken and reluctant to leave.
“I’m sorry.”Standing aside, Ella had witnessed the whole process and felt very embarrassed. She could only apologize to him again on behalf of her sister.
Although she sincerely hoped that her sister would be happy, it would definitely break the heart of her ex brother-in-law.
She had always been looking forward to the peace of the world, but facing such a result, she was contradictory and sad.
“You didn’t do anything wrong to me.”He smiled bitterly.
“Well, I’m leaving now. Take care.”Since her sisters had left, she had no reason to stay here.
“No, don’t go.”He suddenly held her little hand and said, “can you stay with me for a while? I’m so lonely now. Would you like to stay with me and be my only listener? ”
His eyes began to glow at Ella.
“You…”
She was shocked and shook off his hand shyly.
In fact, Kevin had already had an idea in his mind. After feeling the tenderness of Ella, he realized that he was completely wrong.
This docile Ella was absolutely easier to deal with than her smart sister. Unfortunately, it was too late. He could do nothing to change anything.
Just as he sighed for his wrong decision, Leon suddenly appeared. He didn’t expect that Leon would take over the hot potato Avery voluntarily. Since God had helped him like this, he naturally wouldn’t waste any opportunity. He just pretended to be generous and helped the two of them achieve their goals without saying anything.
WHAT?
The photographer stared blankly at the scene in front of him until the camera in his hand fell to the ground.
Not only did the bride run away with another man, but the groom seduced his sister-in-law on the spot!
He had seen many occasions, big or small, and he had never heard of such a shocking scene like today.
The world was so big that there were all kinds of wonders.
