The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 101: The News Is Out

The news that Leo Grant and Holly Sawyer are together spread like wildfire, and soon everyone knew about it.

Noah Raines rushed over, insisting that Leo treat everyone to dinner.

Nathaniel Shaw dropped everything he was doing and went straight to find Leo.

Holly Sawyer’s phone was flooded with messages; once Diana Curtis knew, everyone at The Pantheon knew Holly was in a relationship.

The messages kept coming, and Holly couldn’t keep up with replying, so she decided to switch off her phone for peace of mind.

"Wow, bro, you got her in less than a few days?"

Noah lounged on the sofa, looking like a laid-back king.

A few days ago, he even helped out a bit, and before there was nothing going on, but now Leo managed to win the girl over in just a few days.

"Isn’t this what you wanted to see?"

Leo raised an eyebrow, speaking seriously, while a smile never left his face.

Noah Raines: "..."

No, this is not what he wanted to see, he definitely didn’t want to see this.

Leo, this old dog, is now off the market, while he’s still lonely and single.

It’s just too difficult for him.

"I was just busy for a while, and then this news hit out of nowhere."

Nathaniel clutched his chest, looking heartbroken.

Before, he was wondering when Leo’s dense mind would realize his feelings for Holly Sawyer. He didn’t expect Leo to catch on so quickly.

In just a few weeks, Leo had won over the girl. He was impressed with the speed.

"Stay and have dinner tonight. I’ll ask Mrs. Hayes to make a feast. Or if you want something else, you decide; my treat."

Leo’s smile never faltered as he spoke slowly.

Noah Raines: "..."

Nathaniel Shaw: "..."

Wow, now he’s generous enough to invite everyone proactively.

Before, when the three of them had a get-together, although Leo usually paid, he was never so proactive in offering.

Leo was the wealthiest among them, so paying naturally fell to him, and he never minded, though he always pretended to be broke!

"I don’t think there’s any need for this meal."

Noah waved his hand, expressing disdain.

When Holly and Leo weren’t together and had meals with them, he’d feel like a giant third wheel, and now it feels even more so.

This shameless display of affection is truly overwhelming.

"I’ve got other things going on, I need to attend to later, so I’ll skip the meal."

Nathaniel also declined, his lips twitching unconsciously.

He had no desire to endure such lovey-dovey moments.

Leo Grant: "???"

These two rushed over as if they wanted him to host a meal?

"Let’s plan another get-together, just the three of us."

"Exactly, let’s schedule it for another time."

Nathaniel said, and Noah echoed.

Noah initially intended for Leo to host a meal, but after getting there, he lost the appetite.

The smile on Leo’s face...

How should one describe it?

He couldn’t really put it into words, but he did find it rather cheeky.

He had never seen Leo keep a smile for so long.

"Today, I’ll have Mrs. Hayes cook."

Leo furrowed his brow, deciding for Noah and Nathaniel.

They were already there, leaving immediately felt unreasonable.

"Getting together with that young lady, you both played a part."

Leo said seriously as he looked at Noah and Nathaniel.

Both Nathaniel and Noah had kept advising him, without them, he might not have realized his feelings so quickly.

Noah Raines: "..."

Nathaniel Shaw: "..."

Back then, seeing Leo’s clueless demeanor had indeed worried them.

But now!

Seeing Leo with Holly Sawyer, they both very much wanted to break them up, seriously wanted to.

Such blatant affection is really hard to stomach.

"By the way, I mentioned before that the young lady looked familiar."

Nathaniel suddenly remembered and said.

Leo Grant: "Hmm?"

Noah looked curiously at Nathaniel, waiting for him to elaborate.

Nathaniel mentioned it previously but hadn’t given any specifics.

"Back in Arkenfall, the young lady you saved covered in blood, if our memories serve us right, they’re the same person, and that person is Holly Sawyer."

Nathaniel spoke with seriousness because he had dealt with Holly’s injuries, and he remembered her clearly.

The young lady, so small, yet seeing her injuries made him ache, but she persevered without uttering a word.

It was for this reason Nathaniel remembered Holly, especially her big, bright eyes.

"I thought as much, the young lady seemed very familiar."

Leo chuckled softly, sounding somewhat pleased.

But thinking of the young lady’s injuries, he also felt a pang of heartache.

He previously thought Holly resembled the young lady from his memories, the one he saved.

The young lady loved to smile; even covered in wounds, she didn’t cry; her face maintained a smile throughout.

Her voice was also soft and gentle, just like Holly’s.

Turns out they were the same person.

The bond between him and Holly might have started at that time; he was glad he extended a hand then.

"So her identity is not simple."

Nathaniel reminded him.

A regular young lady wouldn’t be injured so severely, nor would she typically possess such strong willpower.

"I know, but that’s alright. I think I can protect her."

Leo’s smile was particularly gentle as he spoke slowly.

He’d considered many factors, understanding the complexity of the young lady’s identity, and perhaps the dangers that lurked around her.

But it didn’t matter; he could protect her, keep her safe, be her haven.

Noah and Nathaniel didn’t say much more; they didn’t oppose Leo and Holly being together—rather, they supported it.

But nonetheless, they wanted to lay out any risks for Leo to assess himself.

"Remember to invite us for drinks when the time comes; I’ve got my gift money ready."

Noah patted his pocket as he spoke.

"There’s no rush on that. Right now, what you should urgently do is find yourself a girlfriend."

Leo glanced at Noah, speaking slowly.

He and Holly’s relationship should progress gradually, step by step.

It’s said that a relationship begins with a bouquet of flowers; he was thinking about what flowers to give Holly, how large a bouquet would be appropriate.

Whatever others have, his girl deserves it too; she shouldn’t lose out to anyone.

"Stop, halt right there; we’re not discussing this."

Noah clutched his head with a look of defiance, shaking his head like a rattle toy.
