Chapter 1032 Like a Child
Elizabeth panicked upon hearing this.
She had been lying to him before, but tonight, she was completely busted.
However, she couldn’t say that her grandfather didn’t agree to them being together. He wanted her mother to
make the decision, otherwise he won’t let them get married.
Thinking of this, she fell silent and stared at him without blinking.
And he was waiting for her answer. Even if it was a very perfunctory explanation, or if she came up to coax him, he
would believe her,
However, she fell silent and stopped talking.
The last bit of expectation that Matthew had left, his expression turned cold.
When he reached the Hilton Family, he got out of the car first.
Previously, he would open the door for her and help her out of the car. He would hug her shoulders and walk
together. He would never let her walk behind by herself.
Elizabeth felt upset when she felt the difference.

If he wants to be angry, then he can stay angry. It’s better than to know that grandpa is against them!
Previously, she had experienced the feeling of not being blessed by his family. She would feel that she was terrible
and cheap.
A person like Matthew must have never been rejected before!
I don’t want him to feel the humiliation anymore.
Jake sent Jessica to Star Villa. She thanked him and got out of the car.
It was almost twelve o’clock now, so it was very quiet in the villa area. Occasionally, one or two dogs could be
heard.
She walked in slowly. When she reached the sixth building, she saw a shadow there.
She narrowed her eyes. Is there a thief at this hour?
Jessica was a little scared. She took off her high heel and held it in her hand, preparing to knock on the man’s head.
“Who are you?”
She asked and was about to smack the man.
Leonard drank too much and rushed here. He pressed the doorbell and no one opened the door. He sat on the
stairway and waited.
Unexpectedly, he fell asleep.
At this moment, he was awakened by her voice and grabbed her hand.
“Me.”
He replied in a low voice.
Jessica let go of her heel and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was a thief
After that, Leonard coughed a few times and tightened his grip on her wrist.
“Why did you come back so late? Where is Pearl?”
The way he asked was like a husband waiting for his wife to return home, like the father of her kid.
Jessica took a glance at the apartment next to him. She went to accompany him after work today and could not
pick up Pearl She could only
ask Ms. Elliott to take her home. Pearl stayed there tonight.
But she didn’t say it out loud, “Mind your own business.”
After saying that, she wanted to withdraw her hand, but with a force, she fell onto her.
The scent of alcohol and the heat on his body were obvious.

She raised her hand and touched his forehead. It was very hot.
Leonard felt a little cold and he hugged her tightly.
“I-I’m so cold…”
Jessica could no longer push him away at this time, so she helped him into the house.
After switching on the lights, the room lit up. Both of them were a little tired.
Leonard leaned against her shoulder and smelled the familiar orchid scent. He felt satisfied.
It was as if the emptiness during this period of time had been filled up. His arms hugged her tighter, making her
pressed tightly into his arms.
Jessica felt like she was about to be pressed into his body, and she could barely breathe.
“Mr. Johnson, don’t sleep first. Take a hot bath.”
It was so cold outside, and he wore a shirt and drank so much alcohol. It was no wonder he was sick.
Leonard let out a long sigh. “Yeah, let’s take a bath together.”
Then, he led her to the elevator, as if he did not want to leave her for even a second.
Jessica also felt a sense of attachment. Just like Pearl when she was young, she always liked to stick to her.
