The Manipulated Villainess Chapter 23
Advertisement
It was a rainless night with a great atmosphere. The vast and dark sky was lightened up by the dazzling stars. The local market opposite to the famous beach was still buzzy like always. Though it was quite late now, it was still crowded as ever.
The loud shouting of stall owners advertising their goods, trying to persuade the people to buy the foods they sell; some fishermen who came to deliver their newly caught fishes, crabs, lobsters and many other types of seafood; it was one noisy and uncultured place which rich people would rarely visit.
The fact that the only son of the Prime Minister was at that place wouldn't even cross the minds of the people there. But he was there, happily enjoying different kinds of foods with his friend, the only person who understands him.
For Shara Lee, it had been years since she last saw Leon like this - smiling carefreely and sometimes, this young man who was always feeling suffocated because of his father's pressure will even burst out into a laughter!
It was a rare and priceless sight to witness as she understood how tiring and messed up Leon's life was.
But the only son of the Prime Minister was a very unique man. Despite the stifling condition where he was raised by a manipulative single father, he always tried his best to live a refined and upright life. Unlike his greedy and power-hungry father, he longed for a simple and normal life.
Was that the reason why she fell for him? She doesn't know. All she knows was that this feeling was already hidden inside her for a decade!
Shara never hoped to be the one who has this admirable yet pitiful man. She understands that he was beyond her league. As long as he was happy, she was fine with everything.
But she was well aware of one thing. Happiness will not be easy to achieve for Leon. His fiancee whom he loved with all his heart for two years, never felt the same for him.

Shara narrowed her eyes at Leon who was sleeping in her thigh. They were on their way home after roaming around in the market for an hour.
He must be really tired. The stress from his job, the constant pressure from his father and... his fiancee who doesn't even have a clue about his feelings. It had been days since he had a good rest.
"Have a good rest. You always say that falling asleep is the only way for you to be free from all worries." Shara takes off her overcoat and covered Leon who seemed to be feeling cold as he was curling smaller and smaller.
She stared at him for a while and when she did that, an undeniable sadness was formed all over her face.

The sun had beautifully risen like any other day. For Aston, his plan for the day was simple. He will be spending some time with Leah and her daughter, Jenny during the day and meet the young Chairwoman in the evening.
Shooting for his upcoming drama was wrapped up yesterday evening and he was very pleased to finally have a day off. Since most of the shoot was done in a foreign country, it was scheduled to be a pre-produced drama which will start airing next month.
After meeting Nicole, he planned to go to Lester Yun and do as his wish so that he would soon get information about his sister. After waiting for 17 years, he had become more and more desperate to reunite with his twin sister and he was willing to do anything for that.
Being in pain for a few hours would be nothing compared all the torment he went through. After all, it was already a miracle that he was alive in the first place.
He only lived for two things - finding his sister and providing a good life to his late best friend's wife and daughter. But the wife was quite stubborn as she hardly accepted his help.

He was currently dressing up himself to visit the family when he received a call. He looked at the caller ID and beamed with joy.
"Little Jenny." He put his phone on a speaker mode and continued to prepare himself.
"Uncle Aston, when will you reach here? What take you so long?" The voice of the five years old Jennifer Lee echoed in Aston's lonesome room. Her voice instantly made the actor's smile.
"Is my baby that bored? Don't worry. Uncle will be there soon." He sat on his bed and put on a grey sneaker which was his friend's daughter favourite.
"Did you get up late again? Uncle, how many times do I have to tell you not to sleep too much?" The little girl said with a seemingly annoyed voice.
"Why? Are you afraid that I won't have the time to see you if I sleep too much?" Aston asked with a light giggle. Despite being just 5 years old, the young girl was always the one to scold him. 'She's just like her mother.' Aston chuckled as he thought to himself.
"No. If you sleep too much, you will become fat and if you become fat, girls will not like you anymore. I love having a popular uncle!" Little Jenny exclaimed from the other line.
Fat? Girls won't like him anymore? How did the little girl become so smart?! Ah! He should make her stop watching his dramas! She didn't learn any good thing from it.
He shook his head with a smile and picked up his black leather jacket. "But if Little Jenny still likes me, then I don't care about any other things." He glanced his phone which was placed on his bed, waiting for the little girl's response.
"If you become fat because you don't listen to me, then I won't like you anymore. Uncle Samuel is also very good to me. Plus, he's handsome just like you." Little Jenny's unexpected response made the actor smile slipped.
Aston could felt his jaw dropped to the floor! He was the one who spends the most time with her beside her mother. But how could she favour his friend whom she met just months ago, over him? He just can't accept this.
"Don't you think I'm more handsome than Uncle Samuel? You always said that I'm the best." He retorted, picking up his phone and placed it next to his ear. He was ready to leave his apartment but the little girl's words alert his competitive side.
He just couldn't stomach the feeling of his friend being more favoured by his little angel. Of course, Little Jenny was the angel of his life. The one who always brought colours to his dull world.
He had known the little girl ever since she was born and he loved her more than he loved himself!
"Well, that would depend on how you behave. For today, just come here as fast as possible. I really miss you." The childish yet cute voice of the little girl's echoed on his ears which made the actor grinned from ear to ear. He truly missed his angel too!
"Okay. I'll be there soo. Wait for me." He ended the call and stormed out his apartment, making a mental note to warn his friend not to steal his spot in his little angel's life.....
