Billionaire's Sweetheart

In an advanced ward of another hospital, Leo's injured leg had already been treated and bandaged.

However, his legs were inconvenient to walk on, so Leo got his assistant to get him a wheelchair.

Mary had always felt guilty, always feeling that she was the one who injured Leo. Due to her young age, her thoughts were simple, and every time she thought about the mistakes she made, her eyes would always be moist and she wanted to cry.

Seeing her sitting on the bedside, Leo was at a loss on what to do. He could only silently wipe her tears, and his heart couldn't help but ache for her.

He reached out his hand to touch her hair and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't cry, I am fine, right?"

"You're sitting in a wheelchair, how can you be fine?" Mary cried as she threw herself into his embrace, sobbing non- stop.

Leo gently embraced her in his hug, and kissed her head with his sexy and thin lips. It was precisely because Mary was young and innocent that Leo wanted to protect her innocence and purity even more.

"Alright, everything is over now. This matter can be considered as coming to an end. Let's not bring it up anymore, okay?" Leo asked gently.

"Okay!" Mary nodded obediently, like a child. Her soft and tender voice made Leo's heart throb when he heard her words, and he wanted to kiss her sweet little mouth.

Just as Leo was thinking about this, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Belle walked in.

The two people who were embracing each other were obviously frightened and quickly separated themselves.

Mary Ann lowered her head, still wiping away her tears.

Leo was also a little awkward, his handsome face flushed red.

Belle pretended to see nothing and asked softly: "Mary said that your leg is injured? Is it serious?"

"Not too bad, not too serious. It's just that it's not convenient to move around during this period of time." Leo replied with a smile.

Belle frowned: "The relationship between Mary and Simon has been used by the media to cause sensation. These heartless reporters are way too excessive. They even made headlines from nothing."

"That's right. Cousin, don't worry. I will protect Mary's private life from now on. I will never let the media make random reports again!" It was only then that Leo realized that shutting the mouths of the media was a very necessary thing to do.

After Belle heard this, she was slightly satisfied, "Since you promised that, I hope you can take good care of my daughter. I have always been rather busy with my work, so Mary lacked love since she was young."

Hearing her mother's words, Mary blushed and muttered, "Mom, why do you want to say this? I do not lack love, I have always been independent and strong."

Belle looked at her daughter's red-rimmed eyes, and sighed lightly: "Mom is stronger than you, but being strong requires efforts. I have paid the price, so I don't want you to be like me. You should be loved dearly, that's the way of life a woman should enjoy. If you are with Simon Wood, I will worry about you, but if you are with Leo, Mom will be relieved."

Leo gratefully said: "Thank you, Cousin, for fulfilling my wish!"

Mary raised her eyebrows, and said with a triumphant tone: "Of course, I choose men with shrewd judgement, I only choose the most outstanding men."

When Belle saw that her daughter had shown her sense of pride, she immediately berated her softly, "In the future, restrain your recklessness. I'm afraid that the Leo will find you annoying."

Mary was stunned, she immediately looked at the man sitting on the bed: "You will find me annoying?"

Leo started chuckling and shook his head. "No!"

"Mom, did you hear him? He said no!" Mary immediately became happy and proud again.

Belle hadn't seen her daughter's childishness for a long time, and at this moment, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Fine, I don't care about you anymore. In the future, Leo will take care of you. I still have matters to attend to first. Since you injured him yourself, take good care of him." After Belle finished speaking, she left.

Mary stood at the door of the ward and watched her mother leave. She then turned around and stuck out her tongue, "That scared me to death!"

Seeing her relaxing look, Leo couldn't help but laugh at her.

"Your mother is still very open-minded. She isn't as strict as you said she was." Leo remembered that Mary previously said that her mother was someone who had an old mindset and didn't trust men of all kinds.

Mary shrugged her shoulders: "She was really strict in the past, I don't know what she went through had changed her mind, but I like her open mindset now. I believe that if she continues to open her heart, she will definitely be able to find a man who loves her as soon as possible."

"Would you be sad if your mother really did get a boyfriend?" Leo asked curiously.

"Of course not. I'll open champagne and let off fireworks to celebrate." Mary's answer made him speechless.
