“So, you guys done yet? It’s really annoying!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate is pissed, glaring at the smiling father and son. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo and Conan don’t expect that Kate is that shy. They look at each other, then slowly hold their smile. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke finds that Kate’s anger face particularly cute, but Luke doesn’t dare to tease her anymore, so he says, “Come on, take a seat first. You guys want to keep standing and give us a show or what?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The three then seat around in turn. Conan is seating by the side of Kate and Luke, poking out a little head slightly higher than the table, and looking around. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“What are you looking at? I haven’t seen your little naughty kid for a few days and you become more annoying? You trying to get your ass beaten again?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate stares with her eyes wide open, even his nose flickered. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Conan squints and nods again and again, “Yeah, Aunt Kate knows how to get dressed up. To be honest, it’s quite beautiful.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Thanks to his words, now everyone notice that Kate not only wore a dress, but also put on light makeup. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this moment, everyone’s eyes float back to Kate again, which makes her blushing face reappear again with a state of coyness. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke coughs and interrupts everyone’s notices, “Well, you guys see my girlfriend enough yet? Kate is now my girlfriend. Is it so weird to dress up? You crackers!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Conan grins and laughs, “It’s only been a few days since you and Kate start dating, and now you are partial to her. Well…my uncle has become…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke finally realize that the purpose of this family of three today is probably to tease him and Kate. He can only shake his head helplessly, “I should have seen this coming.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo then says, “It’s such a happy event after all. Won’t it be a pity if we don’t tease you guys now? I have never seen Luke fall in love with a woman like this.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bennett is also trying to take the opportunity and coax, but Kate squints and scorns at this moment: “What? You look down on women? Now you tell me why women are worse than men?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At a moment the air get tense, Luke and Claire look at each other, then stare at Leo, both of whom are afraid that Leo will have a fight with Kate now. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In that case, the significance of the party is completely lost. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Leo slightly smiles when he heard Kate’s words. He takes a sip of tea first and then slowly says, “Ms. Kate is a special lady and can’t compare with other women. I can prove I am not flirting. Please forgive me for speak these words without thinking.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After hearing Leo’s answer, the first thought that come to Kate’s mind is, “Is this still Leo? Will Leo, who had never been so good before, apologize for this? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It’s incredible. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate is a little surprised. Luke shakes her hand lightly, and then Kate sits down with a little bit confused. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo estimate that the emotion has not yet there, so he doesn’t mention the apology stuff. He just says to everyone, “I think the most important thing today is to congratulate Kate and Luke on their relationship.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Then Leo takes the lead in raising the glass and tells everyone, “You guys can’t be too depressed. This is also a great thing after all.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It’s rare that Leo can act as the party’s rhythm promoter. So, everyone including Conan all do him a favor and raise their wine glasses. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke laughs, “It’s also thanks to everyone’s pairing. Otherwise out personalities would make it really hard for us to get together.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire joyfully says, “All in all, I wish you be together for the rest of your life.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Look forward to hearing the patter of tiny feet.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Conan suddenly come up with this sentence. Although it’s thinking too far, it’s a blessing anyway. So, neither Luke’s scorn nor Kate’s intimidate. Then she giggles again. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Conan’s look amuses everyone, and everyone drinks the first glass of the party in a laugh. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After three rounds of drinking, Kate is finally relaxed, and truly engages with the party. Her pretty face also has a drunk and shy crimson. Leo feels that now is the right time to announce important things. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo refills Kate’s glass with wine, and everyone become silent. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Kate, this glass of wine is my apology to you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo drinks a glass of wine directly, then looks at Kate seriously, “When I bullied Bennett before, you thought I is scum, and have clashed with me because of Bennett. Too many mistakes I have made, which I must admit.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate is speechless. She doesn’t know what to say, but just purse her lips slightly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“But what I want to say is that I hope you can change your view on me in the future.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Since I healed from this illness, I have noticed a lot of things that I could not realize before. I also regret my previous stupidity and recklessness.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Whether it is to Bennett or you, I want to compensate you with my sincerity. I am definitely not the Leo I used to be…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After listening to these words, Claire have to say that she gets really touched. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
That’s the President Leo. Even if he volunteers to admit his mistake, it is really surprising that he can do it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate has the same idea as Claire, and she even wonders if she has heard it wrong. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But seeing Leo’s sincere smile, she has to believe it anyway. But she still doesn’t know how to respond to this. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo find Kate is frozen without responding, he smiles, “Actually, I can understand you. You can refuse my apology or accept it. This is up to you. I will not feel upset or thinking painful because of your idea.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Luke stands behind Kate at no time. He takes her hands, and whispers something gently. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It’ll be really awkward for Kate to give no response since Leo have gone this far. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate breathes out, then said blankly, “Forget it, you’ve done this. It would be too shameless to keep embarrassing you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Although Kate still had a blank face, everyone knows that she has forgiven Leo. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate is the kind of person who has a kind heart but with a cold face, especially on this occasion. It is difficult to reveal his true heart. Everyone here is accustomed with it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
