The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky
Chapter 517

Chapter 517

She hoped that Leonard could help to get the Panax ahead of time, but after what happened, Cynthia knew that she would not be able to rely on the Hines for help, which left her and Leon to fight for Panax on their

Own.

Meanwhile, in Cynthia's room.

"Cynthia, I'll go back to my room now. Rest well!" Leon said, before turning to leave.

"Wait! Leon, I still feel weak from the Jimsonweed just now. Stay and chat with me for a while." Cynthia reached hastily for Leon's arm.

"What? You're still under its effect?" Leon asked in surprise. He was certain that he countered the effect completely, but decided that he might have missed something. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Yeah. Maybe." Cynthia's eyes darted away and she refused to meet his eyes. In truth, she was no longer under the effect of the Jimsonweed and only wanted to spend more time with Leon.

"Maybe I should check your condition again?" Leon asked, not noticing the way she was looking away.

"It's fine. I'm probably fine. I just want you to stay and chat with me," She bit onto her lower lip and flushed.

"Um, I don't think it's appropriate for a man and a woman to be alone inside a room." Leon smiled sheepishly, finally understanding what Cynthia was trying to do.

"Why so? You got drunk before and I looked after you. I'm feeling unwell right now and is it so wrong to ask that you stay and take care of me?" She pouted.

“Um, alright then." Unable to refuse, Leon agreed to stay.

Cynthia laid in bed with her hand gripping Leon's tightly as though she was worried that he would run away

as soon as she let go.

Rendered helpless, Leon pulled over a chair to sit next to the bed, before chatting with Cynthia.

Time flew by and soon, the two started feeling drowsy.

Cynthia drifted off to sleep with a content smile on her lips and Leon yawned as he tried to pull his hand away, only to notice that Cynthia was still holding onto him and that trying to pull away would wake her. 'Whatever. I'll just wait for a while longer until she is completely asleep before leaving!' He thought to himself and waited for some time. However, he was out and about with Cynthia the entire day. Exhaustion along with the wine he consumed earlier began to weigh on him and he fell asleep with his head on the bed.

The next morning, sunlight shone into the room through the window and Leon somehow found his way onto the bed during the night. Cynthia laid her head onto his arm and curled up against him.

She was the first to wake up and when she opened her eyes to find Leon's face in front of her, she batted her eyes dazedly and realized that something was wrong.

"Ah!" She screamed, coming close to kicking Leon off of the bed.
