Chapter 500
Leon was merely a man and since he was single, he could not be immune to her charm.
Before he knew it, Cynthia left a mark in his heart and as their relationship progressed, the two realized
that they meant more than friends to one another even though they were not officially dating.
So long as Leon agreed, Cynthia would happily become his girlfriend, but he knew that Iris remained to
be the love of his life and he could not bring himself to accept Cynthia’s feelings.
Despite his reluctance, Cynthia was happy with their progress regardless.
She knew that Leon was still recovering from the breakup with Iris and was in no rush to start a new
relationship. She had the time and patience to wait until he forgot about Iris before she could slip in and

A day before the auction, Cynthia drove Leon to Seacove City and the two selected a five–star hotel to
stay the night.
Inside the hotel room, Cynthia and Leon just settled down when a young couple came knocking on
their door.
The couple was dressed in expensive clothing and one could easily tell that they came from a wealthy

auction and might be able to provide certain user information.

“He’s-” Cynthia hesitated and instinctively turned to look at Leon. She desperately wanted to claim

“My name’s Leon Wolf. I’m Miss Shear’s assistant,” Leon said.
Cynthia did not announce Leon as Cynthion Group’s chairman and most employees in the company
assumed that he was merely her assistant, so Leon decided to play the part.
Seeing how Leon refused to say that he was her boyfriend, Cynthia felt slightly depressed.
“So he’s just
an assistant!” Sandra said with the realization that Leon was not anyone important.
