"Now, it is the time to settle the scores with you."
Leo's words left the girl in confusion. She blinked her hazel eyes at him, silently asking him what she had done wrong.
Instead of his usual gentleness, Leo's eyes darkened, a layer of gloominess masking them. For the first time, Leah felt the aura of intimidation around that made everyone afraid of him.
Leah softly uttered, "Husband?"
When Leo slowly made his way over her, his figure towered over hers, his shadow falling over her. The next second, he gripped on to her chin and lifted her head.
Feeling the discomfort well up inside her, she wished to shift her position but remained helpless against his strength. Tears clouded her eyes.
"Crying wouldn't help you out of it." Leo's voice was thick with suppressed emotions. "I already told you that if you get yourself injured, you will be punished. Unfortunately, you couldn't abide by those words."
