Chapter 2447
For Leon Batton, Lynette Batton could have anything she wanted. He was willing to pluck the stars and moon from the sky for her, let alone buy her a lipstick.That was how a brother would behave if he loved his sister. He wanted to fulfill her every request that was within his means. He liked seeing his little sister happy all the time.“That’s awesome. You’re the best, Leon!” Lynette leaped into the air and wrapped her arms around his neck.In front of her brother, she could do whatever she wanted and act like a child.They were about to head home after a day of shopping and getting into their car in the parking lot when Lynette suddenly screamed.“What’s the matter?” Leon asked frantically, worried that something might have happened to her.“I think I left my stuff in the lipstick store. What should I do?” his sister lamented while fishing for something in her pockets.“All right, wait here for a moment. I’ll go back and look for it,” he replied calmly before returning to the

Hannah Roland tried her best to cover her mouth so that she wouldn't be heard crying.She didn’t want Leon Batton, the guy she liked, to see her in such a downtrodden state.However, it never occurred to her that he probably didn’t care about any of this.They had missed the opportunity to get to know each other again due to the many complicated situations they had encountered so far.Meanwhile, Leon drove Lynette Batton home in his limited-edition sports car after leaving the mall.She had her window rolled down as she watched cars passing by outside.“What took you so long in the mall earlier?” she asked casually.“I met someone special,” Leon answered in complete nonchalance. He didn’t plan on keeping it a secret.Hearing that, Lynette instantly detected potential gossip and nearly hopped onto her feet.“Oh? I’m surprised an unfeeling person like you would have a special someone. Tell me more!”“There’s nothing to tell,” he replied, finding her excited reaction hilarious.

“You act like a spoiled brat all day long,” Xyla Quest said while pinching Lynette Batton’s nose affectionately.“Mom, that’s nonsense. I’m not a spoiled brat!” her daughter retorted with a pout. She seemed to be full of energy.“All right, stop horsing around. I’ve asked the nanny to cook a feast, so let’s eat,” Xyla said.“Okay. Hearing that makes me hungry. My stomach is already rumbling!” Lynette exclaimed while rubbing her stomach dramatically.“You’re such a clown,” her mother said. After that, the three of them sat at the dining table.The nanny proved to have impressive culinary skills. She had prepared five dishes in total, including herbal chicken soup. The rest of the dishes consisted of shredded cured meat, eggplant with minced meat, baked chicken, and a mixed salad.The three of them enjoyed the home-cooked meal immensely. Contrary to popular beliefs, the Battons were nothing like how their wealthy status implied. Their regular diet didn’t include expensive w

Perhaps Leon Batton would never receive another slice of toast like before?Would the mystery girl stop going to school for real?***The more Leon thought about it, the more restless he felt. He decided to stop thinking about it altogether. He steeled his gaze until there was a cold glimmer in his eyes.The gentle breeze that blew in from the balcony managed to dry his hair after some time. Then, he got off the couch to lie on his bed.***Meanwhile, Hannah Roland only got off from work at eleven o’clock in the evening. She hastily hopped onto the last bus to make her way home after changing out of her work uniform.She opened the window by her seat, watching as the city passed her by, still bustling with activity despite the late hour.As she approached the final stop, the surroundings changed from the busy city to the quiet suburbs.The dim streetlights illuminated her perfect face the entire journey. She was the only person left on the bus by then. After making her way

The next day, Lynette Batton and Leon Batton attended school, as usual. People gathered in front of the school entrance when they showed up.“Woah! We’re lucky to bump into the most handsome guy in school!”“Yeah, I think luck would be on our side the rest of the day. Lynette is also looking very pretty, maybe even prettier than before!”“I’d like to confess my feelings, but a handsome guy like Leon is way too rich and adores his little sister. I’m afraid he won’t even entertain me.”The students kept clamoring for their attention, not bothering to go to class as they surrounded them, hoping to catch a glimpse of the siblings.They maintained their composure in response, but Lynette wanted to get used to her identity of being a future idol, so she greeted everyone enthusiastically.“Good morning, everyone!” she said, waving her hands elegantly while smiling.“Wow! Lynette smiled at me. Did you see that?”“I think I’m going to pass out. She’s so pretty! I’m so envious of how pre

“Hurry up, and let’s go! It’s time for our lesson. We'd be punished if the Dean catches us here!”As the bell rang again, the loitering students reluctantly left Class A.Lynette Batton stared at Leon Batton with a strange look in her eyes. She wanted to lean forward to find out what happened, but she couldn't risk disrupting the lesson when the bell had already rung.So, she sent Leon a text message.“Why do you keep staring at the toast and smiling down at it, Leon?”Feeling his phone vibrate from an incoming notification, he glimpsed at the screen and read her message. He merely cocked an eyebrow after turning around to look at her wordlessly.Lynette began spamming him with even more text messages when she realized that he wasn't going to reply.“Leon, hurry up and tell me, please?”“Did that girl from before give you the toast?”“I might be able to help you if you can share what happened. ”His phone kept vibrating, and he couldn’t ignore it. He had no choice but to open

It didn't matter how jealous the male students felt as they had already long accepted that fact.After all, Leon Batton was not only rich, but he was also handsome. Compared to him, the rest of them seemed inferior.Under the guidance of the coach, the two classes completed their warm-ups.“Today, you are going to work on your three-step shots. Divide into two teams and start practicing once you’re finished with warming up,” the coach announced.“Yes, Coach,” the students replied before doing as told.“What are you looking at, Leon?” Lynette Batton questioned with her head cocked sideways while gazing at her brother.He didn't reply and merely stood staring at one particular spot where a small figure stood. That figure returned his stare and was none other than Hannah Roland, the mystery girl.Hannah stayed in the corner and gulped. She didn’t expect to be in the same physical education lesson as Leon, but was happy enough with the coincidence and being in the same place as him.

Leon Batton lifted the hem of his t-shirt to wipe the sweat off his forehead.“Woah! Did you see that? I think he has eight-pack abs!”“Oh my god! How can I be this lucky? My classmate who sits next to me requested to skip this lesson. It’s a huge loss for her!”“Ahh, he’s so cool! He’s just like the male lead of an idol drama!”“No, Leon looks even better than all the male idols in existence!”***All the female students watching in the audience were going crazy and screaming.Several male students looked down at their own bellies and sheepishly pulled down their shirts even more.“Eight-pack abs?” Hannah Roland murmured to herself.She was sitting in the furthest corner away from Leon, so she had to really strain to catch a glimpse of him.The coach attempted to challenge Leon since he played so well, so he approached him. “Leon, why don’t we have a friendly match?”Leon nodded, not wanting to turn the coach down. After all, he was his teacher, and he didn’t want to be rud
