Chapter 253 - 253 Are You Taken?

253 Are You Taken?

Leon led Xia to his car like a perfect gentleman after she had picked up her handbag and left some instructions with the company she acquired her car.

When they had both gotten into the car, he zoomed off.

“Thanks, Mr. Leon, for saving a damsel in distress.” Xia smiled while fumbling with the handle of her handbag.

“Just call me, Leon. There is no need for formality since it’s just the two of us here.”

“Okay, Leon!” Xia said in a slightly excited tone. “Thanks for being a gentleman.” She tucked a loose strand of her beautiful long jet black hair behind her ears.

“It’s the least that I can do but you are welcome!” Leon replied curtly while admiring her childish but fascinating gesture. “So, were you going to shoot me if I had been someone else?”

Xia’s eyes widened in bewilderment and mortification making Leon smirk devilishly.

“How... You...you saw my gun!”

“Yep!”

.....

There was a hint of amusement in Leon’s words which made Xia’s face redden with embarrassment.

“Your car side window may be tinted but the windshield is as clear as water and I have an eagle eye.

“Hmm...” Xia was desperate to see Leon’s eyes and read his expression properly but his dark shades prevented her from doing so.

“So tell me, weren’t you scared that I was going to shoot you?” Xia asked in a challenging tone.

“Scared!” Leon almost choked with laughter. “That’s a good joke! You’re one funny girl.

“Come on, Leon, at least you would have been a teensy weensy scared. Most men sometimes pee on their pants when a girl draws a gun at them.” Xia said in a firm tone as though she was trying to convince herself.

However, instead of replying to her, Leon roared in more laughter, making Xia slightly angry.

“Fine! I get it! You weren’t scared! Don’t rub it in my face any further!” Xia pouted angrily and turned her face towards the side of her window.

“Come on!” Leon gently nudged her arm but she refused to look in his direction.

“Xia!”

Leon called softly making her thumping heart almost jump out of her mouth due to the richness and smoothness of his voice.

“I’m sorry if my laughter is getting you upset. If it’s any consolation, you have been able to put a genuine smile on my face. I have been in a foul mood for the past three to four hours. But being with you has somehow lightened the burden in my heart.”

“Really!” Xia slowly turned her head to face him.

“Yes!” Leon smiled.

“Well, I’m happy to know that and I’m sorry for whatever hurt you were feeling.”

“It’s okay, let’s not dampen the mood by talking about it.”

Leon’s tone reverted to being uptight as the past incident between him and Ella flashed across his mind.

“Alright!”

Xia was sensitive to observing the sudden change in his voice and decided to do everything in her power to cheer him up.

“We are here!”

Leon pulled into the driveway of a magnificent five-star rating hotel known as The Blizz.

“Yeepee!”

Xia did a little victory dance that didn’t go unnoticed by Leon.

He was fascinated by some of her childish behavior. Her cute smile, her captivating hazel eyes; which seemed to vary in shades whenever her mood changed, her full sexy pink lips, and above all, her incredible body caught his attention right from the start.

Leon was amazed at his sudden desire to be with Xia. He hadn’t yearned for any lady ever since Ella became his wife. But now, it felt as though his unquenchable appetite for sex was back. The sex demigod was back.

Whatever Ella did to tame his voracious appetite for sex was speedily fading away. Her enchanting beauty which had got him thinking and yearning only for her was been engulfed in the sea of deceit, stubbornness, and anger. The thought of her was feeling him with so much bitterness and pain that he decided not to think of her again.

He decided to focus all his attention on the beautiful girl beside him.

The way Xia’s body was curvy and enticing reminded him of Ella. It was as though they were both created on the same day by the hands.

All he wanted now was just to just feed his eyes on Xia’s hourglass body and if possible tap from it if she was willing to be generous.

Although Leon was tempted to make a direct move on Xia, he decided to wait for her to fall completely for his charms.

There had been lots of green light flashing from her end but he wanted to completely screw with her brains first like he always did to his many dates in the past.

He knew that if he was able to get her to lust over him completely, then getting into her panties would be as easy as drinking water.

“Good evening, Sir!” A male valet greeted politely, thereby pulling Leon out of his thoughts.

“Hmm...” Leon nodded his head and stepped out of the car. He smartly walked over to the other side and opened the door for Xia. Then he extended his hand and helped her out of the car, before leading her in his arms to the hotel lobby.

“Thanks!”

Xia beamed as Leon kept checking her list of what a perfect boyfriend should be. She found herself craving to be by his side. But the only worry on her mind was the wedding ring on his finger.

“He can’t be married!” She mused incoherently, thereby attracting Leon’s attention.

“I can see that you are lost in your thoughts. Care to share?” Leon asked with a corky smile plastered on his face.

“Yes! I like to ask you a question but I don’t know if it would get you angry.” Xia said.

“Ask away! I promise that I won’t be angry!”

“It’s about this...” Xia pointed at the wedding ring on his finger.

“What about it!” Leon asked nonchalantly. Although, he was inwardly sad.

“Are you taken? Is there a lady in your life?”
