Only you in my love

Chapter 761 You're So Quick

"I don't know who's the owner," Michelle answered.

"Dream Manor? Really?" A female colleague couldn't believe it. When she reached out and turned the

box around, she saw the logo on the box. "It's true."

Michelle tilted her head in confusion. "Why? What's with Dream Manor? Also, what's wrong with these

strawberries? They seem to be ordinary to me."

"You're right; these strawberries might be ordinary, but Dream Manor isn't. It's in the suburbs." Gray

spoke as though he had a deep knowledge of what he was talking about. "Usually, strawberries are

either planted in greenhouses or the field. However, these are planted in a manor.

Mimi, try to imagine what a manor looks like. While this manor isn't very big, it's as dreamy as its name

suggests. It has an overall girlish and elegant feel to it, designed by a famous architect. You can only

imagine how grand it looks.

What makes it stand out is the strawberries growing inside. The sight is so magnificent that it can be a

great tourist attraction.

But no one's allowed inside. When I tried coming in, I was barred from entering. Even when Caroline

tried visiting the place, the owner didn't allow her to enter. I've heard people say that the owner is

particularly influential within the commercial circle.

My point is that their strawberries are never for sale. What a waste!"

Caroline interjected, "I've talked to Tasha, the owner, about this before. She told me that the

strawberries aren't for sell. They're gifts."

"Yes. Even May, the best actress, can't get her hands on them." Gray looked at Michelle and the

strawberries in front of her. The more he looked, the stronger his curiosity grew. "Do you really not

know Tasha? How did you manage to get the strawberries?"

Michelle shook her head. She had no idea who Tasha was.

'Leon was the one who sent me these strawberries, so he must know Tasha, ' she thought.

Then, she remembered that Leon had promised to plant strawberries for her, which meant that Tasha

was either his friend or his subordinate.

"If Mimi doesn't know Tasha, then the one who sent the strawberries to her is someone who knows

her," a female colleague said. "Mimi, who sent you those strawberries?"

Everyone fixed their eyes on Michelle.

"Sorry. I can't tell you." A small smile formed on Michelle's lips. "C'mon, let's eat. The dishes are getting

cold." This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

When the people around her noticed that she didn't want to talk about it, they stopped asking further

questions.

Caroline kept her eye on Michelle, deep in thought.

After everyone was done eating lunch, they went back to their desks. Gray stopped Michelle and said

to her, "If you have any connections with Tasha, please help me. Caroline likes the design of Dream

Manor as well as the strawberries there.

She's a big fan of the manor's designer since she also likes designing. Just look at our studio. Before

Caroline came around, it was nothing but a deserted warehouse. Only she had the vision of what it

could be and was able to redesign and rebuild it from scratch. Can you help me? I'll do whatever you

want me to do in the future."

Although he and Caroline were the same age, Caroline appeared more mature.

Compared to her, Gray was easy-going. He would often laugh and joke around like a young boy far

from maturity.

Michelle smiled at him. "Okay. I can't promise anything, but I'll give it a try."

Gray burst into a joy. "Thank you so much! I'll never forget your kindness."

When she went back to her desk, she saw several missed calls and messages on her phone. They

were from Leon.

At 11:45 a.m., he texted, "I've ordered lunch for you. Enjoy your meal. Let me know once you've

received it."

He sent another text at 11:50.

"Michelle, have you received it?"

Then, another one at 12:00.

"You haven't replied to me yet. You must be very busy. Anyway, the delivery man told me that you

already got it."

The next one was time-stamped at 12:10.

"Michelle, I think you should take a picture of it and send it to me. That's what others do. They send a

picture to their boyfriend and say 'Thank you, my dear.'"

As Michelle read the messages, she couldn't help but chuckle, which almost woke up her sleeping

colleagues. Not wanting to disturb them, she walked out with her phone.

Since then, she started taking photos of her lunch and send them to Leon every day.

When she got outside, she continued scrolling to read the last few messages.

At 12:20, Leon sent multiple messages.

"I called you, but you didn't pick up.

Is your phone not with you?"

"Michelle?"

"Michelle?"

She could feel his anxiety through his messages.

The thought of Leon getting extremely worried about her scared Michelle. She wanted to run to him

immediately and let him know that she was safe.

Touched by his concern, she decided to call him back immediately.

Within a matter of seconds, Leon picked up. It was so fast that Michelle was taken aback the moment

she heard his voice.

The reason why he answered so quickly was that he had been waiting for her call. "Michelle, do you

miss me?" Leon asked.

She nodded slightly. "Mm..."

"What? Just tell me yes or no." His voice was so gentle and charming that it further bewitched Michelle.

With her face blushing, she replied, "Yes."

A playful smile started to form on Leon's lips as he continued to tempt her.

"Who are you missing?

Huh? Tell me who you miss."

Leon had always been like this. He kept making her express her love for him.

As obedient as ever, Michelle said in a soft voice, "Leon, I miss you."

"Honey, come out. I'm at the intersection where you got off this morning."

When she heard that Leon was only nearby, her heart skipped a beat.

She looked out the window and saw that the sun was shining brightly as it did yesterday.

Quickly, she ran outside, leaving her coat. Even though it was sunny, the wind was still cold. Without a

coat to shield her from the wind, she couldn't help but shiver.

Despite that, she continued to run towards the roadside.

At the intersection, Leon sat inside his car. When he noticed her approaching, he honked at her twice.

For a second, Michelle was startled by the loud noise. When she came to her senses, she ran over to

the sidewalk and headed towards the car.

When she got there, the door of the passenger seat was already opened, and she saw Leon smiling at

her. He was wearing Bluetooth earbuds.

"Michelle, get in."

"Leon, why are you here?"

"Don't you miss me?" he said cockily with one hand on the steering wheel. His smile grew wider the

more he looked at Michelle. "I'm here because you miss me."

"Wow, Leon, you're so quick."

"Not really." He narrowed his eyes at her. "Michelle, you can't say that I'm quick. You can only ask me

to be faster. Do you understand?"

She nodded, missing the hidden message behind Leon's words.

He looked at her glistening eyes and pink lips. The sudden need to be on top of this woman surged

within him.

Leon distracted himself from his lustful thoughts and pulled Michelle into his arms. "Let me hold you for

a while."

"Okay." Michelle buried her face in his chest and didn't know what to do with her hands. After all, they

had never hugged each other this closely before.

Her face started to burn as her lips began to dry.

While Michelle was in his arms, Leon got a call from Wynn. Thankfully, that didn't ruin the moment

since he was wearing Bluetooth earbuds.

He continued to hold the girl of his dreams in his arms. The longer they were in that position, the more

he was aroused. He wanted to hang up, but accidentally answered the phone.

Michelle happened to speak at this time.

"Leon, are you done? Hurry up. I'm going back to work."

A shocked look came over Leon's face.

"What?!" Wynn couldn't believe what he was hearing.

He tried to get it out of his mind, but couldn't.

"You bastard!"

he cursed at Leon and ended the call.
