Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 124

“All right, just follow my lead.”

The two of them talked the entire drive, right up until they reached Winifred’s house.

“I’ve still got work waiting for me at the office, so I won’t come in. You go get some rest.”

With that, Leonard turned to leave.

“Leo, it’s already lunchtime. Why don’t you stay and eat with me? No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat, right?”

She tried to coax him, her voice softening. “And besides, I don’t have much of an appetite without you here. When you’re around, I can manage a few more bites. Please? Just stay and keep me company, won’t you?”

“I really can’t today,” Leonard replied, his tone gentle but firm. “There’s still a mountain of work I need to handle at the office.”

In the end, he didn’t stay. Without hesitation, he turned and walked away.

Winifred’s face was clouded with dissatisfaction, but she didn’t dare say much or make a scene. She was afraid of pushing him too far, worried he might start avoiding her completely if she went too far.

Once he left, Leonard drove straight back to the office—there was always more work waiting for him. Still, he knew Winifred was a problem he couldn’t just ignore.
