72 Cease and tame (1/2)
After leaving the villa or the illegal work locus of Leon, the latter brought Sean to the hospital. Even though Sean wasn't beaten black and blue, the last hit by the iron rod had created an internal injury and blood clot inside. It wasn't major yet the minor operation was carried out to treat the internal organ.
Sean woke up post breakfast time to see Leon sitting in his ward without going home or bothering to change his suit. His raspy voice sounded in the room to get Leon's attention from the laptop. ”Bro...”
Leon was instant to react to his voice. He closed his laptop and went to the bedside. Caressing Sean's head, his weak voice sounded full of concern, ”How are you champ? You really scared me when you passed out in the car.”
Sean smirked, scratching his head, ”I thought I was fine, I just felt dizzy and I don't know what happened after that.”
Leon helped him to sit and drink water as he briefed, ”We quickly brought you here and after a scan, we got to know your abdomen is injured so you had a minor operation. You will need a week's rest.”
Sean hummed. Whatever he wanted would come to his sight so he didn't care if he has to rest or play around.
Just like how a father would take care of his little son. Leon treated Sean the same way from helping him to the bathroom to change his clothes and feeding breakfast to medicines prescribed.
Leon carefully took the Beauty in Black's topic, ”Inform your girlfriend, don't you want her to visit you?”
Sean chuckled hearing it, He hadn't forgotten the previous day's events, ”Bro, you wanted to kill her right? What's wrong with me marrying her? She is beautiful, she works hard and she is sensible too. Fooling her is easy, I thought if I have her, I can have as many women as I want. She is too innocent.”
'Innocent?' Leon wanted to laugh at it.
Leon didn't hide his true opinion on marriage, ”You will marry Sara Dawson. The Dawson family and their business befit us. Other women are only meant to be a toy for you.”
Sean realized what Aarvi and Aeon said about Leon was cent percent right. He couldn't understand why he didn't know. ”My Beauty in Black is ten times better than that makeup cake face of Sara Dawson. She acts pure but she is arrogant.”
”Sean!” Leon returned to the couch as he spoke, ”You will get many beauties but not the affluent family daughter... If you insist, call her here for me to meet.”
Sean panicked, ”No No... I don't want to marry her now. I just compared two ladies. Even though marrying Aarvi is good, she is a headache.”
Leon hid his cunning smile hearing him blurt out, ”Aarvi what?”
Sean didn't care to hide from Leon any more but... Aarvi what? He failed to remember, ”I don't know.”
”Excuse me?” Leon wasn't sure whether he should scold Sean for being irresponsible with girls around him or laugh at his naiveness.
Leon was unperturbed because when his team couldn't trace her, he knew well there was something fishy but at least he expected to hear fake information.
Sean continued about Aarvi, ”She has a bad past so she didn't allow me to touch her either. She is the one who asked me to work if I want to date her. She is older than me and she had asked me to hide everything about her from you.”
Leon lopsided smirk escaped from his lips and he remarked casually, ”And you call her innocent.”
Sean still didn't doubt Aarvi, ”She fears rich people. I had to plead with her to trust and date me. She was scared you might break us apart. She had told me you will not allow us to be together.”
