Chapter 1130


    Harvey sighed and turned to leave Cynthia’s room.


    Shortly after, he arranged for two guards to guard Cynthia’s door, before leaving.


    “Why is this happening?” Cynthia was devastated as she listened to the distancing footstep.


    “Snap!”


    Just then, she heard a noise and saw a figure leaping off the balcony, before slipping into the room.


    “Who is –” Startled, she was about to raise her voice, but the figure darted up to cover her mouth.


    “Shh! It’s me, Cynthia,” Leon whispered and let go of Cynthia.

    “Leon, why are you back?” Cynthia was surprised and overjoyed to see Leon again, as she did not


    expect Leon to return so soon after leaving.


    “I’m worried about you, so I turned around,” Leon smiled.


    He only pretended to leave to avoid conflict with the Shears and the Shears would have never


    expected him to turn back around.


    “Really? I’m so happy?” Cynthia beamed as joy instantly reced the devastation in her heart.


    “Cynthia, not so loud! Don’t alert the guards,” Leon reminded her.


    Since Benedict and the others caught them meeting in private, it would be horrible if they catch Leon


    and Cynthia in the same room yet again.


    “Oh, give me a moment!” Cynthia went to grab the remote controller and turned on the television inside


    her room, before turning up the volume to cover the sound of her talking to Leon.


    “What should I do now, Leon? Grandpa just grounded me for three days and I might not be able to


    come with you to Seacove City,” Cynthia muttered gloomily.


    “Um, maybe you should just stay. Iris and I are going anyway, and I’ll do my best to get the five–


    hundred- year–old Snow Lotus,” Leon said hesitantly.


    “No way!” Cynthia pouted. She wanted to go with Leon not just because of the Snow Lotus, but also


    because she missed Leon dearly and wanted to spend a few days by his side.


    “What else can we do, then?” Leon asked with resignation.


    He wanted to take Cynthia to Seacove City with him, but the Shears were against it and even grounded


    Cynthia for three days over it, which was something he could not resolve.


    “Leon, why don’t we elope?” Cynthia suggested in excitement.


    “What?! Elope?!” Leon gaped.


    “Yeah! You’re surely capable of sneaking me out of here,” Cynthia said with anticipation.


    “Not happening!”
