Chapter 1037

Leon’s voice got even colder as he tried to hide his sadness.

“What are you saying? Do you want me to get engaged to Anson?” Iris said unhappily, but Leon could not tell.

“So what if I don’t want to? You broke up with me last time to protect your family after being forced to by Elder Young and your father. This time, I can’t believe you’re going to leave me again to help them rejoin the family.”

Leon let out a mocking smile, his tone was unbelievably sad.

He felt like he was an idiot. He gave Iris so much over and over again, but Iris hurt him over and over again instead!

It was obvious how he would feel!

“Who said I was going to leave you?” Iris was frustrated and amused.

“Did you need to say it? I heard everything that happened just now. Could it be fake?” Leon was frustrated.

“Alright, since you won’t believe me, then I’m leaving!” Iris said stubbornly.

“Leave, then!” Leon closed his eyes silently, not turning around the whole time.

“You!” Iris was very angry. After that, she turned around to leave.

Hearing Iris’s slowly retreating footsteps, Leon’s heart sank to the depths, feeling a sense of hopelessness he never had before.

Yet, before he could truly feel that hopelessness, he suddenly felt a warmth behind his body.

Iris did not leave just now, and merely shut the door. After that, she turned around and hugged Leon tightly.

Leon was shocked when he felt Iris behind him. He could finally not stop himself from turning around to look at Iris in disbelief, “D–didn’t you already leave?”

“Why would I leave? I had to put my life on the line to get you back. I’m not an idiot. How could I lose you. again?” Iris muttered.

“You won’t leave me? Are you serious?” Leon was shocked, not believing his ears.

“Of course I am! As long as you still want me, I’ll never leave you,” Iris said with resolve.

“Then why did you agree to Elder Young and your father just now?” Leon was still unsure.

“I didn’t want to say yes, but my father was already kneeling and begging me. Grandfather was too. I didn’t know what else to do.”

Iris sighed helplessly, “Idiot, I was just trying to stall just now. I didn’t expect you to hear it and believe it!”

“So I misunderstood!” Leon realized something, and he suddenly felt incredibly excited.

“That’s great!”

Since the misunderstanding was already gone, Leon was ecstatic. He hugged Iris excitedly and started to spin her around. All of the anger and darkness in his heart was gone in an instant!

“Hurry up and let me down. I’m going dizzy,” Iris said, but she felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

“Iris, it was my fault. I misunderstood you.”

Leon put Iris down and looked a little awkward.

Iris was just too important to him, and that was why he lost control of his temper.

However, he finally understood after calming down. Facing that sort of situation, there was nothing Iris could do other than agree to Elder Young and Gilbert.
