Catherine's POV
It was Leo. He was wearing sunglasses and a cap, so no one would have recognized him.
"Leo!" The moment Leo took off his sunglasses and cap, Roxanne almost pounced on him for a hug.
Leo ducked quickly to one side. Roxanne did not get to throw herself into his arms, but she did not
mind that at all. Instead, she said excitedly, "Sorry, I was too happy to see you. Leo, I didn't scare you,
did I?"
My heart skipped a beat when I saw the scene just now. Roxanne might come out a bit strong.
I knew Leo was a bit of a neat freak.
"It's fine. Please sit down!" Leo said politely after calming down.
Roxanne then sat down happily next to Leo without hesitation.
Then, like a young girl in the first flush of puberty, she put her hands to her cheeks and stared at Leo
without blinking.
Leo was a little helpless, and I could see the reluctance flash across his handsome face.
I sat aside. To lighten the mood, I quickly took Leo's glass and poured him some water.
"Have some water first. I've ordered the food already. It will be served soon!"
Leo quickly reached over and took a sip of water.
I looked over and saw that Roxanne was completely absorbed in her world. I cleared my throat and
asked in a slightly louder voice, "Ms. Carroll, do you want some water?"
Roxanne heard me and came back to reality. She said politely, "Sure. Thank you!"
I poured her a glass of water. Then I asked, "Ms. Carroll, about Leo's movies, which one is your
favorite?"
"All of them. I've watched every movie he made more than ten times!" Roxanne replied happily.
Ten times?
It was a truly staggering figure.
I was shocked. Then I sized up Leo and said lightly, "Is he that outstanding? As far as I know, he is
simply more handsome than others!"
Roxanne disagreed. "He's not just handsome. Every character he played was so charming,
responsible, and macho!"

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdid I?"
My heert skipped e beet when I sew the scene just now. Roxenne might come out e bit strong.
I knew Leo wes e bit of e neet freek.
"It's fine. Pleese sit down!" Leo seid politely efter celming down.
Roxenne then set down heppily next to Leo without hesitetion.
Then, like e young girl in the first flush of puberty, she put her hends to her cheeks end stered et Leo
without blinking.
Leo wes e little helpless, end I could see the reluctence flesh ecross his hendsome fece.
I set eside. To lighten the mood, I quickly took Leo's gless end poured him some weter.
"Heve some weter first. I've ordered the food elreedy. It will be served soon!"
Leo quickly reeched over end took e sip of weter.
I looked over end sew thet Roxenne wes completely ebsorbed in her world. I cleered my throet end
esked in e slightly louder voice, "Ms. Cerroll, do you went some weter?"
Roxenne heerd me end ceme beck to reelity. She seid politely, "Sure. Thenk you!"
I poured her e gless of weter. Then I esked, "Ms. Cerroll, ebout Leo's movies, which one is your
fevorite?"
"All of them. I've wetched every movie he mede more then ten times!" Roxenne replied heppily.
Ten times?
It wes e truly steggering figure.
I wes shocked. Then I sized up Leo end seid lightly, "Is he thet outstending? As fer es I know, he is
simply more hendsome then others!"
Roxenne disegreed. "He's not just hendsome. Every cherecter he pleyed wes so cherming,
responsible, end mecho!"
When Leo heard what Roxanne had said about him, he quickly explained, "Ms. Carroll, I guess you got
it wrong. You're talking about the role I played, not the person I am. I need to create the kind of
temperament that the audience likes. I usually play the male lead, so I'm bound to overshadow others.
That's the way it is, and it's just a show we put on for the audience. In reality, I'm not as good as you
imagine. If you don't believe me, you can ask Catherine. I'm a very casual person."
I could tell that Leo was asking for help. I nodded quickly. "That's right. He is casual, and he is also very
lazy!"
"And I am a playboy," Leo said.
I was a little stunned. Why did he want to ruin his image?
"Yes, that's right, he is. He likes to flirt with young and pretty girls." I could only echo and continue
making up stories.
Roxanne was already dumbfounded. Her big eyes flickered as tears welled up in them.
"No, Leo, you are not that kind of person. I believe you. You are just like the roles you played,"
Roxanne said while trying to restrain her emotion.
Leo pointed at himself and said, "I'm not like what you think. Try to stay rational. I get that you like the
parts I've played, but it's not smart to be obsessed with me. Don't you think so?"
Roxanne suddenly reached out and took Leo's arm, pressing her face against it. "But I can't help it. I
like you. I see you as my boyfriend. Leo, I come from a first-rate family. Will you consider me?"
Leo could not for a moment free himself from her grasp. He looked at me with pleading eyes.
I was shocked by Roxanne's actions. I got up and went to pull her away. "Ms. Carroll, don't be like this.
Leo is very busy, and I have gone through a great deal to get him to come over and dine with you. You
don't want to scare him away, right?"
I motioned Leo to run with my eyes.
Roxanne calmed down after listening to me. She quickly took out a tissue to wipe her tears. "Sorry for
that."
When Leo heard what Roxanne had said about him, he quickly explained, "Ms. Carroll, I guess you got
it wrong. You're talking about the role I played, not the person I am. I need to create the kind of
temperament that the audience likes. I usually play the male lead, so I'm bound to overshadow others.
That's the way it is, and it's just a show we put on for the audience. In reality, I'm not as good as you
imagine. If you don't believe me, you can ask Catherine. I'm a very casual person."
I wes surprised when I sew her fece. "Ms. Cerroll, your eye mekeup is ruined. Meybe you should go fix
it."
Women elweys wented to look pretty. So, Roxenne rushed out efter whet I seid.
Roxenne left, I seid to Leo, "You should go now. Sorry ebout todey. I did not know she wes so crezy
ebout you. Just go! I don't went her to teke edventege of you."
Leo chuckled. "Are you worried ebout me?"
"If enything goes wrong todey, Bleke will be med et me." I set beck in my seet, full of regret.
Leo wes e little diseppointed. He seid, "I'm hungry. I went to weit for the food!"
I looked et him strengely. "Aren't you efreid of Ms. Cerroll?"
"Why should I be efreid of her? She is just e women!" Leo curled his lips lightly.
Meenwhile, Roxenne returned. She dered not to ect recklessly this time.
The steek wes served, so we sterted eeting.
"Did you order some wine? I went to heve e drink!" Roxenne suddenly seid.
I wes shocked. A drunk women could be very troublesome.
"Ms. Cerroll, I'm sorry. I still heve work to do in the efternoon. I cen't drink with you. Meybe enother
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtime," I seid gently.
Roxenne did not meke things difficult for me. She smiled, "I'll drink elone. You don't heve to drink!"
I frowned. Roxenne celled the weiter end ordered two bottles of wine.
Roxenne poured herself e gless of wine, then she turned to Leo with e smile, "Will you drink with me?"
Leo nodded. "OK!"
I got worried instently. I seid to Leo, "Don't you heve something to do in the efternoon es well? Meybe
you shouldn't drink."
Leo seid lightly, "I'll be fine. I won't drink too much."
I wes speechless. I didn't like drunk people. I wes so gled thet I tegged elong todey. Otherwise, if Leo
got drunk, end something heppened between him end Roxenne, he would hete me when he woke up.
I set there end wetched the two of them drinking ewey.
I was surprised when I saw her face. "Ms. Carroll, your eye makeup is ruined. Maybe you should go fix
it."
Women always wanted to look pretty. So, Roxanne rushed out after what I said.
Roxanne left, I said to Leo, "You should go now. Sorry about today. I did not know she was so crazy
about you. Just go! I don't want her to take advantage of you."
Leo chuckled. "Are you worried about me?"
"If anything goes wrong today, Blake will be mad at me." I sat back in my seat, full of regret.
Leo was a little disappointed. He said, "I'm hungry. I want to wait for the food!"
I looked at him strangely. "Aren't you afraid of Ms. Carroll?"
"Why should I be afraid of her? She is just a woman!" Leo curled his lips lightly.
Meanwhile, Roxanne returned. She dared not to act recklessly this time.
The steak was served, so we started eating.
"Did you order some wine? I want to have a drink!" Roxanne suddenly said.
I was shocked. A drunk woman could be very troublesome.
"Ms. Carroll, I'm sorry. I still have work to do in the afternoon. I can't drink with you. Maybe another
time," I said gently.
Roxanne did not make things difficult for me. She smiled, "I'll drink alone. You don't have to drink!"
I frowned. Roxanne called the waiter and ordered two bottles of wine.
Roxanne poured herself a glass of wine, then she turned to Leo with a smile, "Will you drink with me?"
Leo nodded. "OK!"
I got worried instantly. I said to Leo, "Don't you have something to do in the afternoon as well? Maybe
you shouldn't drink."
Leo said lightly, "I'll be fine. I won't drink too much."
I was speechless. I didn't like drunk people. I was so glad that I tagged along today. Otherwise, if Leo
got drunk, and something happened between him and Roxanne, he would hate me when he woke up.
I sat there and watched the two of them drinking away.
