Meeting You Was Fate

"Do you think he's playing games with you?"

"Well, who knows what he's trying to do? Anyway, I'm serious about divorcing him." Milla sighed. She felt she had been compromised a lot in her marriage.

"Don't be like this. Leo cares about you very much. You remind me of how I was some years ago when I wasn't sure of Nathan's love. I've outgrown all of that stupidity now. I figured that he wouldn't have waited three years to have me if he didn't love me." She paused and then continued, "You need to take things into perspective as well. For all of the two years that you've been with Leo, have you been happy? Do you feel love for him?"

Milla held her throbbing forehead and stared down. "Alas! I don't know how I feel but never mind. I'm just fed up. I sleep in the same bed with him every night, but dream of different things. I can't say I know how he feels about me."

"Don't overthink it, Milla. Even if Leo ever leaves you, I'll always be here for you." Mandy was joking. She hoped that Leo and Milla would sort their differences and get along better.

The last time they were in City B, she could tell that Leo was very fond of Milla. He was not the type to show emotions. And as a rich second generation, if he didn't have any feelings for her, he wouldn't have wasted time with her.

Milla suddenly sighed. Her eyes filled with uncertainty as she looked around the empty room. Her thoughts drifted to Leo. Nobody other than herself knew how much she loved him.

She had similar behavior to Mandy, but Milla was a little weaker. And while she was stubborn and witty, she could not match Mandy's tenacity. Their hearts were tender. All they needed was a man who could coax them.

"Okay, I'll hold you to that."
