“Lunch?” Regina raised both eyebrows.

Leo nodded, offering a faint smile. He felt he needed to make a good impression on Regina. Such potential would be wasted if not put to good use. Leo also didn’t want to miss out on the potential the system had given him with Regina.

“Yeah. Lunch,” Leo said calmly.

Regina was silent for a moment. It turned out Regina had a different perspective than Leo. She thought Leo was interested in her. In fact, there were quite a few men who wanted to get close

    Regina’s eyebrows slowly began to furrow. She looked at Gisele and Lisa with a piercing gaze. “Who are you?”Gisele and Lisa took Regina in from head to toe. They could tell that the woman standing before them was incredibly beautiful and had a stunning figure. Seeing her strike a sexy pose while ringing the doorbell certainly made Gisele and Lisa suspicious. “We’re the ones who should be asking that,” Gisele said firmly. “Who are you?”Gisele and Lisa’s stares were piercing and cold, as if they were cutting straight through Regina’s chest. Regina then cleared her throat.“I’m looking for—”“Whatever you’re looking for, it’s not here,” Gisele said curtly.Lisa narrowed her eyes. “You’ve come to the wrong place.”Regina’s hesitant smile faded further. She sensed that the two women standing before her hated her for some reason. And indeed, Gisele and Lisa suspected that Regina was the mistress of someone in this neighborhood. The way Regina had waited for the door to open earlier had l

    Regina was taken aback because what Cindy said was so unexpected. She turned to the little girl, her eyes wide and a small smile playing on her lips.“Cindy, this gentleman helped you. You need to be more polite to him,” Regina said, ruffling the little girl’s hair.Cindy smiled until her eyes crinkled. The little girl knew she had said something she shouldn’t have. But she quickly nodded in understanding.“I’ll be polite to this gentleman.”“His name is Leo. Call him Mr. Leo,” Regina instructed.Cindy’s eyebrows shot up. Then she turned to Leo. She bowed her head.“I’m sorry, Mr. Leo. Thank you for helping me earlier.”Leo smiled and nodded. “You’re welcome.”Cindy smiled with relief because Leo wasn’t offended at all by what she’d just said. Regina, however, was a different story. Her face was slowly turning bright red. She hadn’t expected Cindy to say something like that, and it made her heart race.From the start, Regina had seen Leo as someone with authority and a sense of respon

    A small smile, accompanied by a furrowed brow, appeared on Leo’s face. He had been planning to do just that. However, it turned out Regina had already offered to do it first. He quickly took out his phone and opened the QR code for his contact information.“Of course. Let’s do it,” Leo said, showing her his phone screen.Regina scanned the code with a small smile. Then she sent a message with a waving-hand emoji, confirming that it was indeed her number.“That’s my number. I’ll call you. At the very least, let me thank you,” Regina said with a slightly forced smile.Leo nodded. He knew full well that Regina meant it sincerely. Especially since Leo had already helped Cindy.Regina let out a long sigh. “I misjudged you. I even hit you. Now you’re the one treating me to such a lavish meal. Isn’t this a bit much?”Leo shook his head lightly. “No. You must be stressed out from losing Cindy. You and Cindy need something to calm yourselves down. I hope this helps.”Regina exhaled softly. She

It turned out Regina had a different perspective than Leo. She thought Leo was interested in her. In fact, there were quite a few men who wanted to get close to her. Usually, Regina would just ignore men like that, because most of them were only after her body. And yes, Regina was well aware that she was a beautiful and sexy woman. However, Regina looked at Cindy, who was now holding her hand. Leo had saved Cindy, risking his life to help a child he didn’t even know. Regina felt that Leo was a good person. He’s different from the people she’s met so far. “He’s not a bad person. Okay, it’s fine if I’m a little nice and give him my number, right?”

    “What the—” Leo was taken by surprise. He covered his eyes.The woman kept hitting him with her purse. Her face was bright red, and she was glaring at Leo.“You bastard! What have you done, huh?” She kicked Leo forward.Caught off guard, Leo was sent stumbling backward. Holding his breath, Leo faced the woman, furrowing his brow. He didn’t understand why this woman had suddenly appeared and started beating him like that.“What’s your problem, woman?” Leo asked, raising his eyebrows. The woman glared at the little girl. Then she looked at the two thugs lying there helplessly. Her breathing quickened at the sight of the two men lying there, battered and bruised. Her fists clenched tightly, and her gaze was filled with hatred toward Leo.“You’re the one who did all this, huh?”The little girl was about to scream, but the woman immediately shouted back at her.“Stay right there!” The woman pointed at the little girl. Then she turned to Leo. “Answer me! Did you do all this?”Leo narrowed

    The little girl was stunned to see how Leo had defeated those two thugs. Her eyes were fixed on Leo. She even swallowed hard.Leo then turned to face the child. As Leo walked toward her, the little girl pointed behind him, trembling.“Behind you!” she shouted fearfully.Instantly, Leo turned around. It turned out Jack was already behind him. With a swift movement, he lunged at Leo with a stab.However, Leo was quicker. He grabbed Jack’s hand, preventing the pocket knife from even grazing him. But Jack immediately launched a spear-like strike that hit Leo in the stomach. Then he shoved Leo and slammed him to the ground. The little girl screamed in terror.“Die, you bastard!” Jack raised his knife and lunged at Leo, who was lying on his back. Leo kicked Jack in the solar plexus from that position, causing Jack to stagger backward. Jack’s attack failed instantly. Meanwhile, Leo did a back roll and immediately got to his feet.Jack’s hand clutched his solar plexus. He felt a slight pain
