Chapter 1017


    Leon grabbed her hand and said shamelessly, “Cynthia, if you believe me now, can you give me the


    Panax?”


    “No way! I said no!” He snorted and pulled her hand away from his grip.


    “Why not?” His jaw dropped. He thought that he managed to appease her anger, but women were


    simply far to read and he underestimated how angry she was.


    “I’m upset that all you think of is Iris! Is there a problem?!” Cynthia said wilfully.


    “But,” Leon widened his eyes, “Cynthia, why would you do this to yourself? You know better than


    anyone that I love Iris and if possible, I would much rather be your friend forever,” Leon sighed and


    said.


    He felt conflicted in the face of Cynthia’s love toward him.


    Though Iris gave Cynthia a chance and he did have feelings for Cynthia, he already had Iris and could


    not possibly make Cynthia happy-

    Leon was not a selfish man and if he could not give her his promise, he should let go of her as soon as


    possible so that she would not waste her youth waiting on him.


    He was willing to see Cynthia as his best friend, but deep down, he wished that Cynthia could eradicate


    the romantic feelings she had for him and find her own true love.


    He did not want Cynthia to spend the rest of her life waiting for him to reciprocate her feelings.


    “No way! Leon, I know that you’re in love with Iris, but she;s already given me a chance to win you


    over. I won’t ever give up!” Cynthia said with determination.


    Both Iris and Cynthia were waiting for the other one to cave and back away and the one who


    persevered won.


    Naturally, if neither of them was willing to give up, they would continue to fight over Leon.


    Since Iris agreed to it and Cynthia also epted the current situation, Leon’s opinion did not matter to


    them since they reached a consensus.


    “But you,” He was rendered speechless.


    He repeatedly told Cynthia that it was Iris he loved and he rejected Cynthia countless times so that she


    would not waste her time with him, but Cynthia refused to give up no matter what and there was


    nothing he could do.


    “Forget it! Whatever,” He muttered with resignation.


    “Damn you, Leon. My mood was kind of improving just now and now I’m more upset than ever because


    of you! Forget about the Panax. Go running back to your Iris. I don’t want to see you!” Cynthia said


    angrily.


    “Don’t: Cynthia. that!” Leon was startled when he remembered that he was here for the Panax, not to


    reject


    Cynthia was always soft–hearted and he knew that she merely vented her frustration and all it took was


    for him to cheer her up.
