A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 354

Chapter 354 Leo’s Acting Strangely

At 6.00AM, Amelie left home with a basket on her arm. Her father, Steven, had been suffering from a cold and coughing, so she was worried that it would get worse if he left the house. As such, she deliberately got up earlier to help with the groceries.

Shopping online was more convenient now, plus her company had a section dedicated to electronic shopping. It had held live shopping events for agricultural products, and she could always ask her own company to send some over. However, Steven wasn’t sold on the idea and felt that it would be better if he picked them out himself. She couldn’t argue with him and was willing to give in, so their family maintained the habit of going to the market.

Waking up at 6.00AM wasn’t easy for Amelie. When she pushed open the lobby gate, a figure suddenly appeared. She assumed it was another resident who had risen early, but upon taking a closer look, she froze.

“Leo?”

What is he doing here so early in the morning?

Leo turned to her with a confused look, seemingly surprised to see her there as well.

“Were you drinking?” She rarely saw him this confused and couldn’t help asking the question warily.

“No.” He threw away the cigarette between his fingers.

Right then, Amelie noticed the multiple cigarette butts littered on the ashtray above the rubbish bin and tilted her head in surprise. She recalled that he was obsessed with cleanliness and never touched a cigarette, so what was this about?

“I was taking a walk and didn’t realize I had wandered here.” He stepped toward her, his arm nearly touching hers. The coldness emanating from it made her shiver briefly. How long had he stood in the cold air?
