Leon felt so much hurt at the thought of Ella walking out on him because of Richard. He wanted to punish her a little but she was too precious to him. He had come to cherish Ella so much, that even the thought of losing her was detrimental to his well-being.
He pictured Richard smiling face, kissing Ella and another wave of terror flashed in his eyes. If Richard had been present at the moment, Leon would have designed his chest with at least ten bullets and watched him die with pleasure.
"You want to leave because Richard is back? Or is it because he is doing so well?" Leon's glare was frightful, sending chills down Ella's spine. "What does that make you?"
Did Leon just try to insinuate that she was a gold digger? Ella's thoughts were in frenzy and her mind was bitterly enraged. She lifted her hand intending to slap Leon. But he caught her hand in mid-air and pinned both hands behind her back, causing her to wince in pain.
