Chapter 263 - Revenge 264: I Am Not Going

"But before we visit that punk, we should handle Leo first," Arion said determinedly, and this made Leon sigh in relief. The personal matter with Kyle continues to be the number one thing that Arion wants to finish quickly, but Arion knows that can't accomplish that at this moment because he has to get Leonardo at his side first. "Deliver that video to Leon."

Arion is sure that once Leonardo watches that video, Leonardo will be admittedly the one who will approach him first. And Leonardo will not distrust him any longer because he is the type of person who does not joke around about life and death.

"Alright. I will do it right away."

After that Leon and Arion walks out of the library, leaving the twins preparing everything for Mary's date. But unfortunately for the twins, no matter how much they prepare, there will be a certain someone who will interfere that date.

The next day, Leonardo is currently having breakfast with his family. And today is the day Leonardo decided to tell Mary everything that had happened yesterday with Arion. He gave Arion a time limit yesterday that if by morning Arion still did not provide anything that supports his claim.

Since it is way past time morning, Arion gave Leonardo no choice but to tell Mary.

"Dad, you seem to be in a good mood today. Did something happen?" Leonardo's daughter asked in a curious tone.

The moment Leonardo sat down on his seat, Nathalia noticed that her father's mood are unusual. She does not mean it in a bad way, but her father's mood is always neutral, and seeing him seems to be satisfied makes her curious.

"Nothing happened. But something big will surely happen." Leonardo can't wait for the moment Mary hunts down Arion with full force, and then torture that man for leaving her and the twins behind.

"Hmm? If that's the case, then it must be very interesting." Crona is not used to seeing her husband being in the kind of mood. And the only time he is in the kind of mood is when the organization's enemy got caught or someone very interesting has shown up.

Whatever may be the reason, Crona knows that it will not be good. 'Whoever you are, I pray for your safe travel to the other side.' Crona inwardly said.

"Yes. I will tell you two about it later." After gulping down everything that was on his plate, Leonardo stood up, kisses his two precious girls on the forehead, then bidding them goodbye.

He and Mary have an appointed meeting today, and that meeting will be his only chance to tell Mary the truth. He truly can't wait to see Arion getting beat up by Mary's hands.

As Leonardo is walking towards his car, his phone suddenly vibrated. Thinking that it might be an important message from his work, Leonardo turn on his phone and opens the message. The sender of the message is unknown and he saw a video attached to the message.

Having doubt that the message is a prank, Leonardo still played the video. As he is watching, his facial expression slowly turns dark. His hand turned into a fist and is trembling from so much anger.

After watching the video, Leonardo went to the contacts on his phone and called Mary.

Seconds later, Mary answered the call. "Mary, I'm sorry. I don't think that I can meet up with you today. Let's reschedule for another time. I have some urgent matter that needs to be done." Leonardo said in a hurried tone. He did not even let Mary have the chance to ask him a question and ended the call right away.

There is no doubt who is the sender of that video. And without wasting any more time, Leonardo entered his car and went to where exactly that person is.

"You finally got my full attention, you damn bastard." Leonardo icily said.

"The heck's wrong with him? He didn't even let me speak." Mary said in a confused yet annoyed tone of voice. This is the first time that Leonardo hung up on her like that. She and Leonardo never do that to each other no matter if it's urgent or not.

At this moment, Mary felt that her best friends just betrayed her.

As Mary is wondering what happened to Leonardo, the twins who have no school today sneakily went to their mother's side. "Mom~," Anna and Aaron said the same time.

Mary was slightly startled at the sudden behavior of the twins. She looks at them and gave them a questioning look. For her twins to be this sweet towards her is very unusual. Anna and Aaron are always a sweet children, but they never acted like a clingy type of person.

"Do you have work today?" Anna asked.

"I don't have any work today since your uncle Leo just canceled our meeting." The only schedule Mary has for today is a meeting with Leonardo regarding the current project the company is working on. But since Leonardo canceled out on her, she has the whole day not doing any work-related stuff.

"That's great then!" The twins exclaimed at the same time.

"Great? What's so great about that?"

Not wanting to hide anything from their mother, Aaron took the initiative to tell everything that he and his sister did yesterday. As he speaking, he saw his mother put on a nonchalant expression, but he and Anna know that deeps inside, their mother is annoyed at the fact that they are planning a date without her knowledge.

"Will you go?" Anna asked nervously. She is already expecting her mother to scold her and her brother for doing something without her knowing. But their mother can't really blame them for doing that because all they want is for their mother to experience another love.

Putting a hand on her forehead, Mary spoke, "Will I go? The answer to that should be obvious. Of course, I am not going" Going on a date with a guy she has no idea of will only bring headaches for Mary.

She already made a big name for herself, and everyday she always meets up with two-faced people. And if she were to go, Mary is sure that she will meet another two-face, but the only difference this time is that she will meet the guy on a date.

"Mom, please, just this once, and if it's not working out, then brother and I will stop and let you decide on your own." Anna and her brother already agreed that if their mother did not like the first date they set up for her, then they would let their mother live the life she wanted. They won't disturb their mother into dating some random guy.
