Veronica's POV
"Opportunities can only be created and fought for by oneself."
I never expect others to hand me things on a silver platter. Everything—every advantage, every break—should be earned through hard work and determination. After all, nothing worthwhile ever falls from the sky for free.
Leonardo let out a soft laugh. "Well said, I couldn't agree more. Moving forward, I'll find ways to create and grab every chance that comes my way."
"You can sit down. Let's have a frank conversation."
I needed him to give me some breathing room. When he stood too close, my thoughts became muddled and unclear.
"Alright!" Leonardo stepped back and settled into the chair across from me, his body language showing he was ready to listen intently. "Go ahead, what's on your mind?"
"I want to share some thoughts with you."
"Sure, I'm all ears!" Leonardo seemed eager to understand what I was really thinking.
