My Twin Sister's Boyfriend Loves Me

But then, even if the Darving family's heir was standing before her telling her he missed her, Tina had already planned her day.

Apologetic, she smiled embarrassedly at Leon and said, "That's so sweet of you, Leon, but I'm afraid I can't spend time with you today. Unfortunately, you're a few minutes late. An old classmate of mine had just asked me to go to Royal island to catch up. We'll spend a few days there, and our boat will leave at noon. They should be here anytime soon to pick me up."

While speaking, Tina saw Tanya sneakily walking away, so she immediately grabbed her arm, turned to Leon, and said, "But can I ask you for a favor?"

Leon only nodded and waited for Tina's response, so the latter continued, saying, "Could you please give Tanya a ride? It's a bit late, so she needs to get to the hospital soon."

Hearing what her sister said, Tanya broke free from Tina's grip, shook her hands in front of the two, and exclaimed, "No, please! I don't want to bother Mr. Darving. I can take the taxi, sis."

She refused so openly that she sounded somehow wary of Leon. Because of that, the latter, who originally had no plans of giving her a ride, suddenly got curious about her odd reaction.

"Sure. I don't have much on my plate anyway," Leon said before facing Tina and added, "I'll take you to the pier too."

Tanya stood stiffly upon hearing what he said. Tina, on the contrary, smiled after a moment of hesitation.

"Are you sure?" she asked. Seeing Leon nod, Tina smiled and replied, "Alright, I'll take your ride too. I'll just message my classmates later."

After that, Tina gestured something to Mark, and the latter, who had been carrying her luggage for a long time, nodded and put everything in the trunk of Leon's car.

Then, Mark stood at the side and patiently waited to see if Tina still had other instructions.

Leon, on the other hand, wrapped his arm on the latter's shoulders and looked at the Yates family's mansion. "Shouldn't I at least go inside and greet your father?" he asked, thinking it would be rude not to greet Tim even though he was already around.

Tina couldn't help but praise Leon's initiative and politeness inwardly. Even so, she only smiled at him and said, "That's so nice of you, but Dad is still asleep, Leon. I don't think disturbing him will be a good idea."

Mark, who had been listening to their conversation the entire time, mirrored Tina's words and interjected, "Miss Tina's right, Mr. Darving. Mr. Yates drank so much at the party last night that he still hasn't gotten up. But then, thank you for giving Miss Tanya and Tina a ride."

After saying that to Leon, Mark looked at Tanya and said, "Miss Tanya, if you change your mind and suddenly want to return home, you can reach out to me. I'll get everything ready for you."

Other housekeepers wouldn't mind whether Tanya would return to the Yates family or not. However, Mark was not just any other housekeeper. He had worked for the Yates family for nearly thirty years and was now like a family member.

Tina knew her father well, so she walked near Mark and whispered, "Mr. Lewis, please don't let my dad know that Tanya came here to ask for money for her adoptive mother's surgery."

Knowing where Tina's concern was coming from, Mark nodded reassuringly and said, "Don't worry, Miss Tina. I won't let Mr. Yates know."

Tanya, who could hear everything, looked elsewhere and didn't say anything.

After the three got into the car, Leon drove his black Bentley away from the villa. Tina sat in the passenger seat while Tanya sat in the back seat, looking at the window absentmindedly.

The weather was perfect. The sun was shining brightly, causing the River Road's surroundings to appear extra lovely. Even the river itself sparkled as the sun rays glistened on it.

An awkward atmosphere, on the contrary, permeated inside Leon's car. Tanya remained silent throughout the entire ride, not knowing what to say. Nancy's doctor called her earlier, and she became quieter after that.

Leon, on the other hand, was cold, to begin with, so he only concentrated on driving and didn't utter a single word.

And lastly, Tina hadn't been off her phone since they left the mansion. Then, she only closed her eyes and leaned back in her seat when she finished texting.

While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Leon turned his head and looked at Tina.

"What's the matter, pretty? You're going on a trip, but you don't look so happy," he asked concernedly.

"I'm excited, but I'm still tired from last night. I even thought of canceling this trip, but everything has already been set," Tina replied weakly.

Leon felt a little guilty upon hearing what the latter said. He thought it was Tina's first time getting intimate last night, yet he had been rough with her. Because of that, Leon looked at her apologetically and said, "I'm sorry. I'm not considerate enough. Let me make it up to you next time."

'I'll give you a pleasant yet unforgettable experience next time,' he thought.

Leon also thought of surprising Tina with the golden rose his grandfather prepared when the time was right.

Tina, on the other hand, suddenly felt that something was strange about Leon's words. Even so, she only smiled at him, not wanting to stress herself about it.

"I've heard countless rumors saying you are a cold and heartless man, but I think they're exaggerating," Tina said, chuckling.
