Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 573



"I really have to thank you. If it weren't for you, that man would've kept bothering me." Lucy continued expressing her gratitude to Linus, which stirred up jealousy in Matthew.

Sometimes, Matthew's intuition was even more accurate than Lucy's.

Linus responded to Lucy's repeated thanks, "I told you that it's no problem. Thank you for the treat earlier. The cappuccino was delicious."

With that, he finished the remaining half cup of cappuccino and left the café.

Matthew finally relaxed from his alert state.

"Matt, aren't you tired from driving for so long?" Lucy grabbed Matthew's hand.

"Why don't we find a place to rest for the night? We can go back tomorrow morning. You've had a busy day, so you must be exhausted."

Lucy knew exactly why Matthew was upset and silent. It was all because of Linus.

Matthew's emotions were quite volatile. Once he calmed down, he would realize he had behaved poorly and unlike him. He was usually calm, even when dealing with urgent matters. However, he was overly concerned about Lucy today, and even the slightest disturbance upset him.

"Matt?"

Seeing that Matthew was distracted, Lucy nudged him several times before he snapped back to reality.

Matthew felt genuinely tired as the pressures of work weighed heavily on him, but he had grown accustomed to it over the years. However, being with Lucy brought about new concerns. Even when he was busy at work, he wanted to see her.

"Lulu, promise me you won't come this far from now on. I was worried about you."

"Okay, Matt, I won't do it again... I was sketching by the beach and lost track of time, so I ended up here." Then Lucy tugged at Matthew and coaxed him, "Matt, can you help me carry these things?"

Matthew took them, and the two went to find a nice hotel to rest for a while.

For some reason, Matthew became bitter at the thought of Linus. "Did that Linus guy help you carry these things too?"

There was no reason to deny it, and Matthew might be even more upset if she did.

"Yes, he helped me because he

noticed I couldn't manage by myself.

I was so engrossed in sketching that I didn't notice the tide coming in and how dark it was getting, but be

reminded me."

"Oh, you..."

Matthew sighed. He was used to Lucy's carelessness but was still concerned that she had spent the whole day sketching by the sea.

"Relaxing is one thing, but aren't you afraid of catching a chill dipping your feet in the sea for so long?"

"I'm fine now, aren't I?"

The two chatted idly. Although there

was a hotel owned by Leon

Corporation nearby, Matthew chose a different one to avoid drawing attention, which saved them some trouble.

"Finally, we can rest!"

Ironically, Lucy was much more tired than Matthew. Her energy had been drained at the café, and she only wanted to fall into a deep sleep. Watching Lucy's peaceful sleeping face, Matthew soon drifted off into dreamland too.
