Unexpected

Leonardo's POV

" Where are we going?" She asked me. I just smiled.

" Leo, tell me already." She said but I just winked at her.

" It's secret, babe." I said.

" Don't Babe me." She said glaring at me.

" Did I ever tell you that you look more hot when you glare at me?" I said and smirked at her. She looked at me without any expressions. I laughed inwardly.

" And when you look at me like that it provoke me to kiss you." I said and gave a quick peck on her lips.

" Look at the road, idiot." She said and I laughed.

" You're looking hot today." I teased her.

" And you're acting like a drunken person." She said. I chuckled.

" Why so babe?" I asked.

" Are you really drunk, Leo?" She looked at me weirdly.

" No, I am perfectly sober." I said to her.

" Are you sure?" She asked me. I laughed.

" A bit tired." I said.

" Then go home and sleep." She said.

" No, I want to be with you." I said.

" Ok, then stop the car and let me drive." She said.

" It's ok. I will manage." I said.

" I said stop the car." She ordered me. I sighed and stopped the car at roadside. She started to drive.

" Where are we going?" She asked me. I kept her giving instructions.

" Can you just tell me where are we going!! I will reach there without your instructions and you can sleep for a while. After all it's London." She said.

" Nope, follow my instructions. You don't know the place." I said and she nodded. She kept following my instructions and soon we reached there and she glared at me coldly.

" I don't know this place?" She asked me and I laughed.

" You didn't know this way to reach here." I said. Actually we were here in Greene's restaurant. I just told her to drive a long cut.

" I know the way but you just made it a mess." She said and I laughed.

" Come on, Babe. Now park the car." I said to her and she drove towards the parking lot.

" Let's go, Babe." I said her as we got down.

" Let's go." She said. We entered the restaurant. I pulled her with me to the office section.

" Where are we going?" She asked me.

" Just come with me, Babe." I said.

" But why are we going to the office?" She asked.

" You will see." I said. She was about to say something but someone called us already.

" Excuse me, Sir and Ma'am." I found someone from security reached us.

" We have an appointment with Mrs. Greene." I said and he nodded at the same time he recognized us.

" This way please, Sir." He lead us to Mrs. Greene's cabin.

" Thank you." I said to the guy and he nodded with a smile then went away.

" Why do we have an appointment with Mrs. Greene?" She asked me.

" You will know, Babe." I said and she nodded sighing. I smiled and knocked on the door.

" Please come in." A lady voice told us to come in. We went in and found a woman in her late 50s.

" Good afternoon, Mrs. Greene." I said.

" Good afternoon, Mr. Franquez. Nice to meet you." She said. "Please have a seat." She said to us.

" Good afternoon, Mrs. Greene." Natalie said.

" Good afternoon, Ms. Axton." Mrs. Greene said.

" So, Mrs. Greene. Have you thought about my proposal?" I asked.

" Umm hmm. Yes. I did. Quite interesting offer. I think I will go for it." She said smilingly and I smiled at her back.

" Good then. I will sent my lawyer to get the documents." I said.

" Just one request." She said and I nodded.

" Sure, please." I said.

" It will be your restaurant after the deal you can change anything but I will request you please don't change the staffs. They are very tensed since I have told them that I am going to retire and sell the restaurant." She said to me and I can understand that.

" Nothing to worry, Mrs. Greene. I won't change the staffs but I will just expand it. It will be a branch of our restaurant in Rio de Janeiro." I said. Natalie looked at me weirdly. " We might send some of staffs there and bring some staffs here. This how they will able to experience new things." I said. I want to take care of my grandma's things. Her restaurant was her big dream. I want to keep her dream alive.

" Oh, that will be fantastic. Thank you for that." She said.

" You are welcome, Mrs. Greene. Then we can sign the deal next Monday." I said.

" Sure. I will be having no problem at all." She said.

" Then that's it. Thank you Mrs. Greene." I said and stood up. I shook hand with her.

" You're always welcome." She said.

" See you on Monday." I said. She nodded. I hold Natalie's hand and pulled her with me.

" You are buying Greene's restaurant?" She asked me.

" Yes." I said.

" Why so?" She asked me.

" Cause, I want to expand grandma's dream. She wanted her restaurant have a fame. I want to work on it. I want it has the branches in cities around the world." I said.

" Well, are you going to buy some famous restaurant in every city and change it into a Branch?" She asked me.

" May be. It's a easy way though." I said.

" It will take time." She said.

" I know." I said.

" Ok, let's go and have lunch. I am starving." She said. I smiled.

We entered into the private section of the restaurant. Suddenly someone caught my attention. Sophie!!! She was with a guy but I couldn't see his face. I ignored her. It's good for her that she found someone else to be her victim.We sat on a table and ordered our meal.

" Leo?" Suddenly I heard Sophie from back. I found Natalie looking at her with her cold expression.

" Leo. I didn't come for any bad intention just wanted to say sorry." She said. I was shocked. "I did a lot of things that I shouldn't.  I am very very sorry for that. I hope you can understand that." She said. " And I promise I won't be troubling you anymore." She said.

" Good that you understand which is best for you." I said and she nodded. Then she walked away.

" Well, that was unexpected." Natalie said.

" True." I said. Why did she change!! May be because she find out someone who is theone for her. Good for her though.
