Chapter 232 Questioning Tiffany and Steven's Relationship "Miss Grey, you can't blme for this. You know how bad Leon's temper is. How could I possibly stop him? If I tried, he'd probably kill me." Aiden was genuinely helpless. After all, once Leon made up his mind, who dared to say anything? Tiffany's frown deepened. She knew Global Nexus Corporation had ulterior motives for Leon.
Now that Leon had gone out, it was like giving them an opportunity.
"No, I need to go find Leon myself." Just as Tiffany finished speaking and was about to head out, she saw a figure walking into the manor.
It was Leon.
A few people followed behind him, likely the ones Aiden had mentioned.
However, Leon's face didn't look good. He walked into the living room without even glancing at Tiffany, went straight upstairs, and shut his bedroom door.
"Miss Grey, now that Leon is back safely, everything should be fine, right?" Aiden asked with a smile. Tiffany didn't respond. She had a nagging feeling that something was off with Leon. Even if they had a disagreement, Leon would never ignore her like that.
But just now...
Leon knew she was in the living room and would definitely ask about his outing.
Yet, he didn't stop, nor did he offer any explanation.
Tiffany wasn't sure if she was overthinking or just angry at Leon for ignoring her, so she decided to ask him directly.
He must have encountered something during his trip.
Tiffany walked upstairs and knocked on Leon's bedroom door.

Aiden quietly followed her upstairs and asked softly. "Miss Grey. what are, vou doing?" "I just want to talk to him, but he won't open the door. Maybe you could try?" Tiffany stepped aside, and Aiden took a step forward, gently knocking on the door. "Leon, are you in there?" Aiden asked.
"What is it?" Leon's cold voice cfrom inside, but he still didn't open the door. Tiffany stood beside Aiden, looking displeased.
He ignored her knocking but responded to someone else.
If Tiffany remembered correctly, she hadn't done anything to upset Leon, had she? "Miss Grey just wants to ask if you encountered anything unusual when you went out today," Aiden said cautiously, his ear pressed against the door.
He could sense that Leon seemed to be angry.
"No," Leon replied curtly, and the room fell silent again.
Aiden spread his hands and gave Tiffany a helpless look.
"You know how Leon is. If he says there's nothing wrong, there probably isn't. Miss Grey, don't worry. Leon wouldn't have cback if something had happened." Tiffany didn't say anything and went back to her room.
Aiden looked at Leon's door, then at Tiffany's, and smacked his forehead, sighing.
He knew both of them were stubborn. They really were a pair of long-tpartners.
But Aiden decided not to interfere in their relationship.
If Leon lost Tiffany, he'd regret it.
Night fell.
Tiffany and Leon cdownstairs at the stime, but neither spoke a word.
Even during dinner, Leon deliberately avoided sitting near Tiffany.
Ronald noticed and glanced at Aiden, as if asking what was going on.

Tiffany didn't mind Leon's behavior and quietly ate her meal, her appetite surprisingly good. But Leon was clearly unhappy.
After just a few bites, he found an excuse to leave the table, sulking alone.
"What's up with Leon now?" Aiden asked awkwardly. Who knew? As for Tiffany...
After dinner, she took a walk around the yard. Just as she was about to head back, Leon walked up from the opposite direction, blocking her path.
"Do you need something?" Tiffany asked coldly.
"Is this how you talk to me? You're so friendly with others. I guess the divorce was what you wanted all along!" Leon's words were completely baffling.
Tiffany rolled her eyes at him, not wanting to engage.
"Think whatever you want." Tiffany tried to walk past him, but Leon grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
"What do you want now?" Tiffany's tone was clearly impatient as she shook off Leon's hand.
"What's your relationship with him?" Leon glared at Tiffany, his eyes cold, and growled. Tiffany was puzzled. Who was Leon talking about? "What are you trying to say, Leon? Can you stop beating around the bush?" Hearing this, Leon took out his phone, opened his photo album, and shoved a picture in Tiffany's face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing the person in the photo, Tiffany immediately understood and stared at the phone, exasperated.
"So he told you we had something going on."
Just a heads up: is the only place itmiss to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! Tiffany pointed at the photo, looking exasperated.
Leon saw the look on Tiffany's face and felt a flicker of doubt but still pressed on.
"So who is he?" But at that moment, Tiffany didn't feel like explaining.
After all, her relationship with Steven wasn't something Leon needed to know.
Leon didn't recognize Steven because he had been unconscious when Steven appeared, so naturally, they hadn't met.
And besides...
What right did Leon have to question her now? After a while, seeing Tiffany's silence, Leon assumed she was making up an excuse and couldn't help but mock her.
"Tiffany, I guess I underestimated you. You never lack men around you." Leon's sarcastic tone was infuriating.
Tiffany frowned and retorted, "Does it matter to you? Even if I'm with someone else, it's none of your business." Tiffany was so angry she snapped back at Leon.
Leon, on the other hand, thought Tiffany was guilty and unwilling to tell the truth.
"So I was right. Tiffany, you really are disgusting." Leon's words finally pushed Tiffany over the edge. She couldn't hold back and slapped him across the face.
The slap left Leon stunned, unable to react for a long time.
"Disgusting? I think you're the one with issues. Don't forget, we're m divorced: What right do you have to control me? Who I'm with has nothing to do with you." With that, Tiffany turned and walked away. Leon watched her disappear, his tongue pressing against his cheek.
In his mind, he replayed Tiffany's words and wanted to ask himself one question: Why did he care about Tiffany's relationship with someone else?
