Chapter 755 Confess To Each Other
Chapter 755 Confess To Each Other
Rainy rested her head on Debra's shoulder as soon as she sat down beside. Before they knew it, she
fell asleep.
"Are you two in love?" Debra asked. There was a hint of concern in her voice, but then, she suddenly
thought of something. "Hold on. Has Leon broken up with his girlfriend already? You know, that woman
he brought with him at every party."
Michelle tilted her head thoughtfully before nodding. She said, "Yes, he already did."
"That's good. Otherwise, you'll become his mistress." Debra let out a sigh of relief. "Well, is he your
boyfriend now?"
Pouting, Michelle put her arms around Debra. "No, he's still not my boyfriend."
Debra was almost knocked down by the force of Michelle's hug. With Rainy leaning on her left side and
Michelle hugging her right, she felt like a tumbler.
She could only sigh upon hearing that Michelle and Leon hadn't made their relationship official yet.
Deep down, she was so pissed off that she could only lean back for now.
Then, Aron stood up and went behind Debra. He felt indignant as he thought, 'I'm the only man here. I
shouldn't have come here in the first place.'
"That bastard! Leon is that rare scum of the earth. If I see him now, I will definitely give him an earful,"
Debra scoffed.
Upon hearing this, Michelle immediately jumped up to his defense. "No! You shouldn't scold Leon!"
"I'm done talking with you. Go to the bathroom and take a good look on your face. Then go ahead and
have a wash." Debra shrugged off Michelle's arms and pushed her away.
"Fine." Michelle got up and went to the bathroom as she was told. Debra watched her walk unsteadily,
starting to get worried about her friend. She then deposited Rainy on the table and assisted Michelle on
her way to the bathroom.
It was at that moment when a wave of dizziness hit Debra. She hadn't noticed it while she was still
sitting down, but now that she was standing up, she felt as if the floor she was walking on was no
longer flat.
"Be careful." Aron looked at the two of them worriedly. Debra gave him an "okay" sign. As soon as the
two women were out of the room, a phone began ringing.
It was Michelle's phone. Aron picked it up and read the caller ID. It said, "My Brother." At this point, he
didn't even have to guess who it was.
Nonetheless, he must back up Michelle on this.
Aron hesitated for a moment, warring between answering the phone or not. In the end, he chose to
ignore it. But the phone kept ringing again and again that he was forced to answer it.
"Hello, Leon. This is Aron speaking."
Leon sounded surprise when he spoke up over the phone. "Aron? Are you eating dinner together?"
"Yes. Michelle just went to the bathroom. What's up?" Aron's voice was flat and emotionless with no
hints of anger. Nonetheless, he sounded stiffer and more formal than usual.
They used to be polite to Leon for Michelle's sake.
Ever since Leon heard Debra call him bastard that night, he wasn't expecting Michelle's friends to be
nice to him.
The fact that Aron was able to talk to him calmly was already a surprising turn of events.
Nonetheless, Leon didn't care much about it. He asked, "Where are you?"
Aron didn't want to tell him at first. But on second thought, he had no right to interfere in Michelle's
relationship.
"We're at the Fragrance Restaurant."
"Thank you."
However, Aron refused to say which room they were in. He was going to make Leon look for them
instead.
The two women came back to the room.
Back in the bathroom, Michelle had washed her face with cold water and vomited. She came back to
the room, feeling a bit confused. She was beginning to sober up, but she still felt a bit dizzy.
"I think I can still drink some more. Shall we continue?" Michelle glanced at her companions quickly
before pushing Rainy who was sleeping. In a low voice, she tried waking her friend up.
But Rainy slept on soundly, completely ignoring her.
"Just forget it. We should stop drinking anyway. It's been two hours since we've started, so let's go to
sleep now. Tomorrow is Monday after all, and we all still have to go to work. It's not like back in college
when we can just skip classes whenever we wanted." Debra sighed.
A long time had already passed since they were students. But now that Debra brought up past
memories, she couldn't help but feel as if it was only yesterday. Nonetheless, the memories of those
years were starting to grow hazy.
Michelle tucked her hair behind her ear. Then, she reached for her phone and placed it inside her small
bag which she slung across her shoulder. "Go home then, but I'm not going with you. I still have
something important to do."
Debra asked, "And what could that be?"
"It's something very important. It's a big deal actually." Michelle stood up once more and spread her
arms wide.
"Care to tell us more?" This had piped Debra's curiosity.
Clenching her fist, Michelle said loudly, "I'm going to learn from Lydia. I think she is right."
Debra lost interest in it. "Well, I wish you success then."
Aron echoed her sentiment and smiled. "You can do it!"
"Thank you!" Michelle nodded at the two of them before opening the door and walking out of the room
by herself.
Debra couldn't help but worry when she noticed Michelle's unsteady gait. As she was about to offer
driving her friend home, Michelle waved goodbye at them and told them to text her as soon as they got
home safe.
After Michelle walked out of the Fragrance Restaurant, the cold wind greeted her with open arms. It
blew against her face, winding its way down her neck and sobering her up. But she dreaded becoming
sober. She needed liquid courage if she wanted to confess her love to Leon.
Just like what Lydia said to her on the phone. "I like him. So even though he only needs someone to
pretend to be his girlfriend so that he could ward off those other women, I will gladly do so. I'll be willing
to be his fake girlfriend."
And if that was what Leon needed to get over his previous relationship, Michelle was willing to do that
for him.
She began to mentally prepare herself as she hailed a taxi. But then, she realized that the car that
stopped in front of her looked very expensive and out of place.
Confused, Michelle stared at the car window as it slowly rolled down to reveal Leon's handsome face.
He looked back at her with a gentle expression and said, "Get in the car, Michelle."
She rubbed her eyes subconsciously, thinking that all of this might be an illusion caused by her own
drunkenness.
Leon found her reaction amusing. It was clear that she was still debating with herself whether he was
really there or not. He then opened the door to the passenger seat and said, "Yeah, I'm really here.
Now get in the car."
Michelle got inside the car, sitting down in a daze. She turned to look at Leon and couldn't find the right
words to say to him.
However, Leon was strangely silent as he drove them down to the nearest quiet road. He hadn't said
anything else except those few words a while ago.
He parked the car along a shadowy area and turned off all the lights.
It was just the two of them in the dark. Silence wrapped around them like a blanket. All they could hear
was their soft breaths. Michelle held onto the strap of her bag tightly. She whispered, "Leon..."
"Wait. Let me talk first. I have something to tell you." Leon's voice was low and coaxing.
Michelle shut her mouth obediently. In the darkness, she could hear the sound of a seat belt being
unfastened beside her. The next moment, she felt a body hover near her. The heat emanating from it
surrounded her.
Suddenly, her heart began to beat wildly. She felt hot all over.
A warm breath blew against her ears.
Leon then said in a low and seductive voice, "Michelle, your phone's password is my birthday. Your
wallpaper is a photo of me and you. And..."
He paused dramatically and felt her shiver against him.
Once their eyes got used to the darkness, they could start to see the outline of each other's face.
Although he couldn't see the blush on her cheeks, he could practically hear how fast her heart was
pounding against her chest.
Of course, he wasn't sure if he was hearing her heart or his own.
Maybe it was both. It sounded so messy and clear at the same time.
The two of them were drifting closer to one another. Michelle's face was growing hotter and hotter by
the second. Leon had finally discovered her secret. She felt angry and shy at the same time. She
snorted like a spoiled child.
Leon felt his heart soften a bit upon hearing this.
Leaning his forehead against hers, he gently stroked the shell of her warm ear. In a hoarse voice, he
said, "You used the bed sheet and quilt cover I used, and..."
The bed sheet and quilt cover he had used were very intimate things. When Michelle took them, she
felt ashamed of herself. And now that they were facing each so closely, she could feel that same
feeling of shame creeping up on her. Her face and neck grew even hotter.
Even if she couldn't see very clearly, she could still feel the layer of heat around her body.
Michelle lowered her head in shame. She then began pushing him away, but he caught her hands
firmly. The hand stroking her ear slowly slid down to her face until it settled on the hollow of her neck.
The drag of bare skin against her bare skin rose goose bumps along her body. It was like a live wire
running inside her.
She couldn't take it anymore. She said weakly, "Leon..."
"I just have one question. Do you like me?"
"Yes, I do." Michelle had her confession all planned out for tonight. But now that he asked her, the
words just came out of her lips so naturally.
Leon gasped upon hearing her admission. And when he spoke up again, his voice had gone even
lower. There was something hidden beneath it—a restraint sense of lust.
"Who do you like?"
"Leon."
"And who likes Leon?"
"Me..."
"Very good. Now say that again." The tip of his nose brushed against hers. They were now sharing the
same breath with how close their faces were. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Pressing her lips together, Michelle said gently, "I like Leon." She paused for a second and the
repeated it again. This time, her voice sounded firm and confident. "I like you, Leon."
Time seemed to stand still until Leon finally swooped down to kiss her nose. He said, "I like you,
too."
