《Billionaire's Cut》Chapter 25

"No Leo you can't do that, it's not simple if by any chance William wins the case her career is ruined."
I recognised the voice with my eyes still closed. It was Jul. I opened my eyes to see myself in Leo's living room. And the sky turned pitch black.
Holy Jesus I can't, I slept most of the day and I still don't know what to do.
I stood up from the bed and instantly fell to the ground. My head started to revolve, my eyes automatically shut.
Someone came running into the room I heard the footsteps.
"Savanah get up slowly," Leo said.
Leo pulled me up from my arms and made me sit on the bed.
"L-leo it's dark, I have to find a solution the-otherwise everything I ever worked for will be gone," I said with tears running down my face.
"Shhh baby it's okay, I got in covered look," Leo said while putting his phone in front of me and playing a video.
The head of the cardio department of the White Hill Hospital is now gonna pay for his sins.
Dr Peter William is being arrested this morning from the hospital on a charge of sexual molestation of one of the surgical residents. Dr Savanah Michelle Rodriguez.
According to the chief of this hospital, Dr Richatd Nolic says that the first complaint by Dr Rodriguez was denied by the medical administrator despite having physical witnesses.
I was shocked, this was in the news. Everything was in the news. The video was still playing off the cops dragging William out of the hospital and shoving him into the van.
I saw nurses of the hospital holding banners in support of me, I even recognised Nancy who is a nurse in the hospital and also filed a complaint about him but it eventually got denied.
She was telling the reporters her story. I lift my eyes to look at Leo and at this moment I saw something flash in his eyes.

Love? No
Sympathy? Yes
"I always got you," Leo whispered to me. I move my face towards Leo and joined my head with Leo's head.
"Thank you so much, Leo, I don't know how to thank you," I said still sobbing.
Leo cupped my cheeks and kissed my tears. If it was a normal day I would be flustered but today I felt cared for, I felt like somebody I matter to.
"Stop crying and when was the last time you ate," Leo asked moving a little away from me.
"I don't remember maybe before I talked to William," I said while wiping my tears.
"Common, everyone went home, and you need to eat," Leo told me and I walked to the kitchen with him.
Leo started to boil the pasta and chop the vegetables. He wore a black hoodie and grey sweatpants.
He pulled his sleeve up to his elbow and started to cook the food. Leo's arms were clean without a tattoo.
He had muscular veiny hands and the way his fingers moves while cutting the vegetables was art.
Jesus, you are getting filthy Savanah.
To distract me from ogling Leo I looked around Leo's kitchen. My attention was trapped by Leo's freezer.
It had like a carton full of my favourite carbonated pineapple juice. And then it hit me Leo promised me he will not let me drink, but it didn't mean that he will not drink himself.
"Leo you have a lot of pineapple juice," I asked more as I said and Leo stopped cooking for a minute.
"Ya, I know you like that stuff so I stocked, it in my house, when you come you could have it," Leo murmured while looking at me.
The statement pulled a smile on my face. "So sweet of you Leo, but you don't have to go dry if I don't drink and I can drink now in a controlled manner," I said.
"No, you will not!" Leo exclaimed.

"Not until I am alive." He said.
I looked at Leo with warning eyes and he just smirked and continued to cook.
I sat at the table while Leo poured the pineapple juice into our glasses.
"Leo, how did you manage all this?" I asked him because I was dead serious that the medical administrator will never approve my complaint. But how the hell did it happen?
"I- didn't do anything, Dr Nolic filed the complaint and it went further." Leo shrugged and continued to eat.
"Now my turn" Leo said.
"What happened on your right thigh," Leo asked me and at that moment my spoon dropped on my plate making a loud sound.
Oh no he just didn't ask me that, I can't tell him how the most 2 ugliest scars on my body I got was from the people who were supposed to cherish me.
"An axe cut me one time when I was at my grandparent's house," I said, Leo hummed and I know he was not satisfied with my answer, but he didn't force it more.
We both sat silently and continued eating our dinner. The whole room was filled with the sound of our spoons or occasional slurping sounds.
Leo already finished his food and he kept looking at me while I was eating. His eyes were boring holes in me.
I quickly stood up from my chair and took mine and Leo's plate to the washbasin. Leo followed me.
"What?" I asked and Leo was still looking at me like I had grown two heads.
I started to go back to washing the dishes when I felt my back hitting Leo's chest. His hands kept moving on my arms.
My breath hitched. Leo removed my hair from my neck. I could feel his warm breath on it. He moved a little closer to me pressing me between himself and the counter.
Leo's hand moved to my waist and he started to rub his hand on my stomach with the sweater still on.
I could feel the heat of his hand through my sweater. Leo placed a small kiss behind my ear. "So soft" Leo purred against my neck.
And my mouth flew open, it felt like I was not able to get a single sound out of it.
"L-leo." I moaned his name. Leo just hummed and started to kiss down my neck. His grip on my waist grew tighter.
I was enjoying this but I can't do this to Leo. He doesn't know anything about me, plus I don't know how he feels about me.
I just don't wanna get hurt in the end, or worse hurt Leo.
"Stop Leo." I controlled the urge to moan rather than say. Leo stepped a little back but his chest was still touching my back.
He removed his hand from my waist by dragging them across it. My stomach felt a slow jiggling sensation. My head hung low, not able to turn and face Leo.
I could practically feel the heat rising on my face.
Suddenly I could feel Leo's breath near my ear again. But at the time, he didn't do anything.
"I know you lied about that scar, and I wanna know why but I will not force you to tell me," Leo stated and at this moment two emotions stir in me.
Relief and Panic.
Relief for not telling Leo now about it and panic that he will ask me about this later.
I hummed not knowing what to say to him. Leo gently grabbed my hand and placed my mobile phone in it.
"And when all of this ends an explanation, of why would a father text his daughter calling her a whore."
"I am going to the guest room, sleep in my room, good night." With saying that Leo left me there.
Hot
Bothered
Maybe horny
And extremely scared.
