Chapter 103: Chapter 103: He’s Not My Husband
Ivana Monroe saw the hostility in the young girl’s eyes, she smiled slightly, her crimson lips were like a blooming red spider lily, seductive and enchanting.
"If you want to think that way, I can’t help it. Why don’t you go to your brother Leon and expose me, make him ditch this scheming girlfriend."
"Don’t think I won’t dare."
Kiki Jennings glared angrily at Ivana Monroe. The young girl looked very pure, but her expression when she glared was not so cute, the clear eyes seemed to hide a sharp needle.
"Since you dare, why are you still standing here?" Ivana Monroe’s eyes lifted slightly, her face having been slapped, yet after bickering with the young girl, it seemed not to hurt anymore.
She wished Kiki would go to Leon Keane right now to sow discord, it would be best if Leon listened to the young girl’s words, she didn’t want to appear in such occasions anymore as Leon Keane’s girlfriend.
It’s as if she’s attached to Leon Keane for money, benefits, clinging to this wealthy master.
Being his girlfriend in others’ eyes was just a plaything, not respected by anyone, it only brought humiliation.
Mr. Morris was a good example.
If he saw Leon Keane being taken away by Kiki Jennings, he could even immediately come over to humiliate her.
"You..." Kiki Jennings was trembling with anger at Ivana Monroe, this vile woman was the most arrogant she’d ever seen, don’t get complacent, she wouldn’t let Ivana boast for long.
Leon Keane punched Mr. Morris, leaving him lying on the ground unable to get up, and only then did he withdraw his hand.
Mr. Morris lay on the ground groaning, with sobbing cries from his mouth, so pitiful: "I’m dying, call 120, call me an ambulance."
Everyone around suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, no one wanted to get involved in this mess.
Mr. Morris’s eyes were swollen and narrowed to slits, seeing these people leave him helpless, in his heart he cursed them as a bunch of sycophantic and opportunistic people.
Mr. Morris shook his hand, rummaging in his pants pocket for his phone.
He took out the phone, fingers trembling while pressing the screen key, no matter how he pressed, the phone stayed black, finally realizing the screen was broken by Leon Keane’s kick, only under light could he see the crack.
Leon Keane saw Mr. Morris holding the almost falling apart phone, hiding his face and crying, his angry mood slightly improved.
Leon Keane walked to Ivana Monroe’s side, as if not seeing Kiki Jennings, took Ivana’s hand saying: "Let me take you to the hospital for some medicine."
Ivana Monroe wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, but after what happened with Mr. Morris, she indeed didn’t want to stay at the party any longer.
"Mm." Ivana nodded meekly.
Leon Keane’s dark eyes flashed with slight surprise, rarely seeing her so obedient, his stern expression softened considerably, and his gaze towards her gradually became gentle.
Leon Keane left with Ivana Monroe, and as soon as they left, everyone attending the party gathered in groups whispering.
"Have you noticed, Leon Keane is different with this girlfriend than with past ones?"
"With those previous girlfriends, Leon Keane was just fooling around, they were dispensable, but this one seems serious."
"Oh my~ Could it be that Leon Keane has fallen for Ivana Monroe? Ivana Monroe is going to upgrade to Mrs. Kane?"
"It’s very possible, they say that aside from monetary satisfaction, Leon Keane has never fulfilled any other aspect for his previous girlfriends."
"Do you mean... in that aspect?"
"Yes, I’ll tell you quietly, Leon Keane’s former girlfriend slept with me not long ago, she slipped up in bed saying that after being with Leon Keane for so long, he never once touched her."
The people gathered heard this man’s words, all were so shocked their jaws nearly fell off.
It’s known that each of Leon Keane’s girlfriends was very beautiful, their figures were explosively hot, considered top-tier among women.
Only a sage like Liu Xia Hui could remain unmoved by such exquisite girlfriends.
Obviously, judging by Leon Keane’s performance with Ivana Monroe today, his probability of being Liu Xia Hui is very low, almost impossible.
Kiki Jennings stood right next to these people, suddenly clenched her fingers, nails painted with pink glitter were embedded in the flesh of her palm, but the pain in her palm was only a tenth of the pain in her heart.
Kiki Jennings’ eyes were red, with crystalline tears suspended threatening to fall.
She liked brother Leon, liked him since she was little.
She really liked, liked brother Leon, she’s liked Leon for so many years, how could he be snatched away by a woman named Ivana Monroe?
She was unwilling, and couldn’t accept it.
~~
In the evening, Leon Keane took Ivana Monroe to the emergency room.
The doctor in the emergency room looked at Ivana Monroe’s beaten right cheek, which had only a faint pink color, no need for medication, within one or two hours it would fade naturally.
The doctor glanced at Leon Keane, wondering if this man had hit his wife and now regretted it, apologizing and wanting to reconcile with his wife, hence brought her here to show his concern?
The doctor secretly despised Leon Keane, and prescribed a tube of "erythromycin ointment" for Ivana Monroe to apply on her face.
As Leon Keane was about to leave with Ivana Monroe, he casually said: "When you’ve reconciled with your wife, cherish her well, otherwise if you really drive her away one day, regretting would be too late."
Both Leon Keane and Ivana Monroe were taken aback.
Hitting one’s wife?
The two exchanged glances, immediately understanding the implication behind the doctor’s words.
Ivana Monroe’s face flushed: "Doctor, you misunderstood, he’s not my husband, the injury on my face wasn’t caused by him."
Ivana Monroe came forward to explain for Leon Keane, making him feel much better inside, he’s a man, if he marries a wife, then it’s love, there’s no way he would lay hands on her.
This emergency room doctor was not only fond of meddling, but was also overly worried.
The doctor looked embarrassed: "I’m sorry, it was a misunderstanding, this fine gentleman please don’t take offense."
Leon Keane snorted coldly, when misassuming him he was a scumbag who hit his wife? Now that Ivana explained the truth, he was a fine gentleman?
A tube of erythromycin ointment was very cheap, only a few dollars.
The emergency room doctor was fairly conscientious, not prescribing excessive medication or ripping off Ivana Monroe.
Leon Keane took the ointment without giving it to Ivana, but opened the passenger seat, let Ivana sit, then sat in the driver’s seat, turned on the car light, and opened the erythromycin ointment, squeezing some on his finger, wanting to apply it to Ivana’s face.
"You don’t have to bother, I can do it myself." Ivana saw his action, her delicate features slightly reddened.
"Can you see as clearly as I can? Keep your face here."
Seeing she didn’t move, Leon Keane placed down the ointment with his other hand, reached over to the passenger seat, held her chin steady, moved her face a few centimeters towards him.
His fingerpads carrying the ointment gently moved on her face, Ivana’s cheek felt slightly itchy, she shrunk her neck, but couldn’t escape his large hand holding her chin.
He gazed intently at her face, white and faintly pink, clean without a single speckle, even the pores were barely visible, Leon Keane suddenly felt his breath hot, he had impure thoughts about her.
