Leo had a smile on his 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtnbt4jXge
face when he brought himself to a comfortable position. He never had 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZqQwe4diw
this excited yet happy feeling within himself just by staring at the 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5KpkvQUB7
face right in front of him.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8F7MwXQ8R
It was morning and the 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTd3kIGYhx
sun rays managed to seep into his room giving it a wonderful golden 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiooC7gF0bb
glow. But nothing in his room shined brighter than the woman sleeping 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVyz1QLybm
next to him who had the lovely skin colour of bronze that shined 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgY4ySGjgiL
brilliantly in the morning sun.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53CNkOGNgE
Carly had joined him 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMhNGLjcmx
last night after she had watched a movie with Angel, Eric and Oliver. By628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx1mHZ3qSq
then, it was already late, Kim had left a good two hours ago and almost628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgRGAqHh5q
everyone in the house had gone to sleep, except from the two love 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGwK2wiJ1R
birds, of course.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7ljP2bUiF
It was good she came, 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHt5ENEtK7
Leo thought to himself as he continued to stare at her. She was still 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKav8CMNeik
sleeping and she looked beautiful, no doubt in his mind that she was. He628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0xycdKqwo
wished time could slow down so that he could look at her for just a 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOBqQHWiqi
little while longer. Sooner than later, he would have to wake her up.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIZVnmKhJN
He stretched his hand 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B9G2wMtZM
and ran it through her lovely silky black hair. For an African American,628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qNUoWOI6t
her hair was gorgeous. He tucked away a strand of her hair that was on 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwIeEIuGM6
her cheek. When his hand brushed over her cheek, ever so gently upon 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUUurdHRLV
pulling it away, her eyes slowly flew open.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLfamlkxUT
"Morning, sleepy head," said Leo with a smile.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9v4D63QTF
She didn't respond as 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEJEgbCmTe
she smiled through her sleepy eyes and closed them again. She still 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0AqimiGP7
looked so beautiful with that goofy smile on her face, he thought to 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHEdqhoVsq
himself. Leo chuckled.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH1WmawuoU
"It's already morning?" she asked as she opened her eyes again and looked at him.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr6xJxQEql
"Sadly, yes," he replied. "You know what that means."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSDmVLXQ4R
Carly groaned like a little girl who didn't want to wake up to go to school as she covered her head with the bed covers.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYGkZ0Ga3R
Leo continued to chuckle. "Come on, you know the drill." He sat up and uncovered the bed cover covering her head.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdAcuokQfD
"Fine," she said as she gave up and sat up on the bed. "I really hoped that I could stay a little longer."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvE2N0kK6Y
"You're right. But I 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCZxpZr4mh
better get you out of here before anyone wakes up. It might be a weekend628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU79UM8jKX0
but there are still a lot of early birds around here."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSrJKV9rgW
Carly smiled at him. "Like you?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa6I1D38Ws
"Like my dad. Come on, we better hurry."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KgooHa1vZ
They both got out of bed628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd8s5AjjjC
and got dressed into their nightwear covering themselves with their 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa2zEjPubJ
sleeping gowns. They sneaked out of Leo's room and they tiptoed all the 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdHWENAML5
way to Carly's.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnAoGtXPu3
"Thanks," said Carly in a low voice when they got to the door. "I'll continue sleeping and we will meet later on."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mTu0JvAE5
"Great, I'll see you soon," said Leo as he smiled.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI0mHL4fsm
Carly gave him a simple 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjet09jGg3
peck on the cheek and quickly went in her room. For a moment, Leo 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCU0RuQrGr
couldn't help but stand there for a moment, lost in thought, until he 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne2r9vn0VC
realised that he had been standing there looking at the door. He smiled 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUNxtCzwqI
at his stupidity as he made his way back to his room.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvnqi0DnuO
Just when he got there, he changed his mind and thought he really needed a cup of coffee.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2xsr8FrJr
He made his way 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb2yLWDVGI
downstairs and before he could make his way to the kitchen when he 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUr5COPMU5
reached the bottom of the stairs, he heard a noise coming from the 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGywIXPkgt
kitchen.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRH0v5AxYA
He wondered who could be628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOZUe1zWm4
up at this early hour. He knew his dad was always an early bird, but 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXFTUjPDW3
when it came to the weekend, Leo knew he wouldn't be awake for another 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n6Qk8vopd
hour. He made his way to the kitchen and what he saw, shook him a 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmosCs7yenZ
little.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzeFkIxP6i
Angel was standing by 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2SVZtYE7u
the kitchen counter where she had put up the coffee maker to make some 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bYXiPOvU0
coffee. Her presence somehow didn't matter to him, but there was some 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO6zovyc5d
thing that shook him the moment he got there.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgMEdkjuz4
Angel was standing, and not on a wheelchair.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5sJIVg1du
Sensing someone's presence, Angel turned to the door. When she saw Leo, she neither gave an angry look nor a smile.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGPKbMkXn0
"Morning," she greeted as she turned back to the machine on the counter.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB2X5tjvoI
"Morning," Leo somehow managed to say. "You're up early."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vUgsITUZN
"I just had to."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡId4jsMdsyV
"Ummm," Leo still 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfur8wq8h1
couldn't believe that Angel was standing in front of him. He expected 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNDjLnKAPn
her to be still on her wheelchair. "Are you going somewhere?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirTU6xZ8bT
"Thought of taking a walk to strengthen my legs a little."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6ltOGiLVL
The coffee maker soon 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqf5deBMJz
finished making her coffee and the room became slient. Angel went over 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RUG6HP7nm
to the cupboard next to the sink to get a mug. There was a slight limp 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcYZ8eeIfz
in her walk, but all in all, she seemed okay and not in much pain.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXixcAiSmxh
Just as Angel was heading back to the coffee maker, she noticed Leo's eyes on her. She turned to look at him.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRLp8V5g4I
"Why are you looking at me like you've just seen a ghost?" she asked.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VitbOPaiy
"Uh..." Leo hesitated. "I'm just surprised that you're walking."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv3mvq1rKY
"Why? You wanted me 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIi40IQ2An
confined to a wheelchair forever?" Angel raised an eyebrow at him before628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeILRoGgWF
she turned towards the coffee maker and went over to it to pour herself628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeH40jMRkB2
a cup.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhFNB8i8Lx
"Umm, no. I'm just surprised, that's all."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHHXgsQ4le
"The doctor said I should start walking around to strengthen my legs."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7eNdd0H10
Leo just nodded his head but he was still in shock. He expected her to be confined to her wheelchair a little while longer.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLyYgK8WUb
"You still don't seem 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KSmgL4Rz4
happy that I'm walking again," said Angel, bringing Leo back from his 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWuj3SdEm8
thoughts. "I hope you don't think that this will get in your way of 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qRChxFQGF
things."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpe4TE5s0y
Leo was the one to raise his eyebrows this time around. "What do you mean?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQSiVt8AQM
Angel took a sip of her 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4T40u6Z58
coffee as she leaned on the counter and placed her hand on it. "You know628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoTaVDaFgZ
what I mean. I know Carly didn't sleep in her room last night. She 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQcuyVzkCY
spent her night with you."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQoHsbu1bF
Leo retaliated, "that's not true."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEOq4pz8ub
Angel smirked and Leo 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2TUFIB3la
felt his cheeks heat up suddenly. He cursed himself from the inside 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5FzL9DAkC
still not understanding why he was feeling like this.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIQzOLKB2Z
"Tell it to the person who is now able to walk up the stairs," she said.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG38j56TWJw
"Does that matter? Carly is a grown woman, you know?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW2lFuAQBJ
"Carly is a grown woman, yes, but that doesn't mean she knows that what she's doing might lead her into trouble."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne0IlShau4
Leo shook his head. "I don't think I want to talk about this with you."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQfJOaTNDw
"You're right, Leo. It's628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVENqQtgmF
early in the morning and I would rather walk around the garden to 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSpod1KaV0
exercise my legs rather than talk about something that I know I don't 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFENx2IEE5d
have any control over."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgph4Kcdwp
Leo was a little shocked628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkVSvDpFEN
to hear Angel talk like this. Was she finally giving up, allowing Leo 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfASxMlrOh
and Carly the chance to be happy? Or was she playing some kind of mind 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgQDSvu9EK
game?628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa4kBpod2e
She slowly made her way 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zJkEpn8tM
to the backdoor of the house still with her coffee mug. Leo continued to628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ803tFDUPZv
look at her and something came up in his mind.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbn07bnbYf
"How do you know, Carly's room?" Leo asked suddenly.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGvcnDJidj
Angel stopped upon reaching the door and slowly turned to look at him.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWexBewEkgF
"I beg your pardon?" she asked politely. Leo wasn't buying it.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx78traajqF
"The time you came into 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjtSUBSo7c
this house, you were still in your wheelchair and you never made it up 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX4JjJjPBV
the stairs. So how do you know where Carly's room is?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYZTi9nePw
Angel smiled at Leo. 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3gttvSNuX
"Yesterday when Carly came home and after we argued in the study, she 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQoajknCGA
invited me to come over to her room since she wanted to show me what she628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElFxFW90oo
bought from the mall. With the help of two of the house helps, they got628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpK1s1890e
me up the stairs and when they helped me back down afterwards."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02cgJyfXOi
"I don't believe you."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J6JO9xfDn
"You don't have to, Mr 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm2D0emkla
Detective," Angel gave him a fake smile. "I don't have to prove myself 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFY2lGJIXl
that I'm telling the truth because you would never believe me and it 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHfjM7gj7C
will clearly be a waste of my precious time."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3rZQ3FLdt
Angel turned back to face the door and unlocked it. When she swung the door open, she turned to look at Leo.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHSjlRJCBF
"I'll be heading out for628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFH9ylMUXT
a stroll in the garden. I would have liked if you would accompany me, 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzj4ve21cXQ
but, as usual, things wouldn't end so well, would it?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu5NFhUTun
Leo didn't have to 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh00kP6HE6F
answer that question and Angel didn't expect him to. She slowly walked 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGM0k3AE3p
out of the kitchen as silently as she could and closed the door behind 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXZ2mnReue
her.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIoP9RALTm
Leo stared at the closed628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWvJ749uTZ
door and he couldn't tell if he was angry at Angel like he always has 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxaKF7yy3f
or he was just surprised that she was able to walk around again. Either 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31tlcCP1os
way, he forgot about making coffee and went back to his room, feeling 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEBmiInvrN
utterly disturbed.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHZl2cQl1q
***628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP7PjgTyYh
In628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzL5muWL3SI
an hour's time, almost everyone in the McDonell mansion was awake. At 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8DruTQ2nl
the breakfast table, Mr McDonell and Amanda were having their breakfast.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfg6ZaWfE6
Leo and Eric soon came to join them.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGZUczCpWJ
"Morning grandma, morning dad," said Leo as he sat beside his grandmother.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IX8NIzlW2
"Morning," said Amanda.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9cvYQ4zTY
"Morning," said Mr McDonell who was looking at his daily newspaper.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmak5BDq50t
"Hope you all slept well," said Eric as he sat opposite Leo and Amanda.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEHlUT0NDC
"We did," said Amanda with a smile. "And I can see you two boys slept well too."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMXa1mIEXh
"I sure as hell did," said Eric.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k8xtifBZn
"And628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSy6pR2gXP
Leo has this smile on his face," said Mr McDonell. He might have been 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRNGsMRy9u
looking at the newspaper, but he was pretty observant.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3giV3bjcS
"Do I?" Leo asked.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFxuGxcszS
"Of course, dear," said Amanda. "That smile is even making you look more handsome."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbXncfLjes
Leo628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldD1Hklf7j
continued to smile. And he knew the reason why. He noticed his cousin 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSjqWkKB8F
looking at him across the table. Leo couldn't help but feel that Eric 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcOqgfv9Vz
knew the reason too.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzychMYNNKm
"Do you have any plans today, boys?" Amanda asked as she drank her tea.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUSyrICgcF
"No, granny," Eric replied as he got two slices of toast. "It's a weekend after all."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw75AqZDTq
"I just wanted to know. It would be nice to spend some quality time with you two handsome grandsons of mine."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTocDTnYsSB
"You would," said Leo. "We aren't going anywhere."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0rzORGyqu
"Lovely."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFCkMGXBqd
A few seconds later, just as Leo was pouring tea from the teapot into his cup, Angel walked in.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtw4DaIy838
"Morning, everyone," she greeted.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGVHEFApaP
Upon628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW9zGsfcfT
hearing her voice and seeing her face, Leo spelt some tea on the table.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2aHQiVB6h
Some almost poured on his trousers, but he was very lucky.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmKGzm5shV
"Oh, my, careful, Leo," said Amanda. "You would have got burnt."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrb3dw9vRu
"I'm fine," said Leo as he cleaned up the spelt tea with a napkin.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5A0VYePNf
"Oh, morning, Angel," said Amanda, then she gasped. "I didn't realise that you're walking and not on your wheelchair."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFUjZxt0X0
Eric628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuBPKrR5ZS
quickly turned to look at Angel and he also looked surprised. Mr 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIkmzfxM0V
McDonell smiled at Angel. Leo groaned as he realised that all that he 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7HsOIBp2L
had seen earlier wasn't a dream.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiNvNHVsFY
"Yes, the doctor told me that I should start walking to strengthen my legs a little," said Angel.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3QmwQ3eDI
"Well, that's good," said Mr McDonell.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ws0ec9cie
Eric stood up from his seat and drew out a chair next to him for Angel.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtOKzR4TLv
"You can take a seat here," said Eric.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXyHNHSS6r
"Thank you, Eric," said Angel as she slowly but gradually made her way to the table and sat down.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH8qhszVAC
"It's good to see you walking again, dear," said Amanda.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SahfnioSv
"It does feel good, Amanda," Angel smiled.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJXBq08mZO
"So does that mean you will be going back to work anytime soon?" Mr McDonell asked.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL13V1Aqns3
"I've been given more time from work to recuperate before I go back."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oFAvatjdU
"Okay, then. If you don't mind, I would like to talk to you about something. And Carly too. After breakfast, that is."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpX6Mr6dE2
Angel nodded her head. "Of course."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzGMP7D1f0
Leo628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4icc2uX4w8
couldn't help but feel that something was up. Could it be that his 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBXOxIDKau
grandmother had told his father about Angel working at the company? Leo 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXiUuGYr3q
hoped she hadn't. And if she did, he hoped his father had disagreed with628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk02gIcpTo
her and that he wanted to talk to Angel about something else.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBtitArzlb
Angel628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjh5Q7A8n0
poured herself a glass of juice and looked up at Leo who had looked 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl43j0Yu2d
away after he realised that he had been looking at her since she sat at 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQbqAibOv5
the table. Angel ignored him as she got some toast.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup9EQVEORY
While the others continued to have breakfast, Oliver and his mother, Diana, joined them.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMzSuN9ZG3
"I'll628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uBEYMnLT1
be in my study if you need me," said Mr McDonell as he drank the last 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIO7XnVsa1
of his coffee. "Angel, you can join me in the study when you're done."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhKw8oHApS
"Yes, I would," said Angel.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1l12pBQwe
Mr McDonell soon left the dining room.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMzKuN46zd
"I see that you're not sitting on your wheelchair, Angel," said Diana.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEnTb4HJ4a
"Yes, I'm not."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIordPIKzFV
"That's nice," said Oliver. "It would be so much easier now taking you around."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0SV0W59ku
"Why? You want to take me around the house? I never got that opportunity since I wasn't feeling too well."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTe3YYtOyW
"Yes, I would."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFmPjXFiLA
Angel smiled at Oliver, sitting next to her. "Charming."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExcEmAgkkC
"I'm afraid that's the one thing all the boys have in this house, charm," said Diana. "And sadly, no one can say no to them."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELkEEADllu
"Well, it doesn't work on me," said Amanda.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21Z5Phmf9T
Almost everyone at the table laughed, except Leo.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk39nVMGqe
"You can take me around the house after I'm done talking with your uncle, okay?"628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy19n58fril
"Yes."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmrQY8uMxF
Leo628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKjbDVQzew
soon found himself standing up, ready to leave the table. He had had 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnOdzjDKlN
enough of his breakfast and he certainly had had enough of everyone 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WXGqibYP7
talking about Angel.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM1L5jddTN
Surprisingly, Angel also stood up from her seat at the same time as he did. The two of them looked at each other for a moment.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4K39oYoBa
"I'll be going to see Mr McDonell in his office now," said Angel as she drew away from the table.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBJT84vUG8
"You'll find us here," said Amanda.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jaMp6A7aH
Before Angel could find 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrJ76YvYKN
her way out of the dining room, Carly soon came in. And she paused upon 628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbPZfPCZJr
seeing her sister, standing on her own.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNI5noWFFe
"Wow, Angel," said Carly with a surprised look on his face. "You're walking again."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNpQNtSMjX
Angel only smiled. "Yes," she said. "You should have your breakfast and come to the study."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhp4L5AmaJ
"To the study? Why?" The excited look Carly had on her face, soon disappeared.628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8v7NnyoBJ
"Mr McDonell wants to have a word. You'll find me there."628Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpw4AhTWND
Angel made her way out of the dining room while Carly stood there wondering what Mr McDonell wanted to talk about.
