MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 2 - Season 3 Episode 67

Leon’s words made the smile on Nina’s face gradually disappear.

She turned to look at her brother and said sadly, “What a bummer!”

Hearing her whining, Leon’s heart softened. He touched her head and said, “Sorry, Nini. But I’m not wrong, and you know it. Our family has some criteria for selecting your husband. He should be…”

Leon found himself silenced.

Nina covered his mouth to stop him from speaking.

“Honey, I have something important to discuss with my brother. You go home first. I’ll see you at North yard, okay?”

Nina said to John. Then, she stared at her brother and said, “We need to talk, Leon. Now.”

Nina dragged Leon and left. Leon could not say anything and could only go back to his suite.

As soon as they entered the suite, Nina loosened her grip on him and lowered her head, looking a little sad.

The frown on his sister’s face softened his heart. Leon called softly, “Nini?”

“Leon…” After a pause, Nina looked up at her brother and shook his arm. “Please don’t tell him about the criteria. He cares about his face so much and is eager to excel.”

Nina knew that John would definitely try his best to fulfill the three conditions if he knew about them.

But he would be very tired.

She did not want that.

“But you are the princess of C Island.
Only those who meet the three requirements can be considered as a match for you.” Leon kept his voice soft and even. He did not want to agitate his sister more.

He knew that she loved John very much.
He also knew that John loved her just as much if not more.

With brimming tears in her eyes, Nina said, “You know I don’t want to be the princess. I want to be the daughter of my parents, your sister, and John’s wife.

Those who meet the three requirements are just qualified to be the husband of the princess, but I don’t love them.” Nina shook her brother’s arm again. “You told me you want me to find the one who loves me and live a happy life. You said you don’t want me to end up with someone I don’t love. That’s why you helped me escape from C Island. Don’t you want me to spend the rest of my life with my one true love?”

Leon did not want his sister to be unhappy.

On the other hand, Nina wanted her brother to agree to her marriage to John.

She cared about what her brother thought.

Leon knew that he could not change Nina’s mind now. He held her in his arms. “Well, I guess there’s no stopping you now.”

“Great. You are the best brother in the world.” Nina held Leon and smiled proudly in his arms.

‘I’ve succeeded,’ she thought.

“Do you mean that if I disagreed, I wouldn’t be the best brother?” Leon knew that his sister acted unhappy on purpose just now because she was sure that he would do anything to make her happy. Still, he could not help feeling a little bit dejected.

His sister was married.

She would leave him and live with another man.

Leon pulled his sister out of his arms, put his hands on her shoulders, and said, “You have to promise me one thing.”

“What is it?” Nina’s face lit up.

Her eagerness really broke her brother’s heart. He sighed again.

“I will stay in Lexingport City for half a month. In that time, I want you to live here with me.”

“Okay,” Nina answered decisively.

She thought that she could still see John without going back to North Yard.

“I will test your husband in the next two weeks. If you secretly help him to pass my test, I won’t help you anymore, and I will ask our parents to take you back to C Island. You won’t ever see him again if that happens,” Leon warned and pinched her face.

With a bright smile, Nina raised her hand and promised, “I won’t help him. You do whatever you want.”

Nina regarded John as her hero. She believed that he could definitely overcome every difficulty he encountered.

“Good girl.” Leon smiled with satisfaction.

As soon as they finished speaking, Michelle walked out with a pillow in her arms, yawning.

She was used to sleeping with a rabbit doll in her arms. Since there was no rabbit doll in the hotel room, she could only hold one of the pillows.

Looking a bit disheveled, she greeted Leon and Nina with sleepy eyes, “Good morning, Nini.

Good morning, Brother.”

Leon stroked Michelle’s head with a smile and replied, “Good morning.”

“Mimi, did we wake you up?” Nina smoothed Michelle’s hair and looked at her ruddy face. She was still squinting.

“No. I was dreaming, and then I woke up.” Still holding the pillow, Michelle plopped on the sofa.

“Really? What was the dream about?” Nina poured a glass of water for Michelle and handed it to her.

Freud, the famous psychologist, said that dreams showed one’s subconscious mind.

After a series of steps such as combination, alteration, and so on, what existed in the subconscious would be expressed through visual images, which were called dreams.

Although Freud’s theory of dream analysis had limitations, it did have its merits.

Nina thought that she might be able to analyze Michelle’s dream.

Leon also sat down. He stared intently at Michelle and waited for her answer. He was curious about what this lovely girl dreamed about.

Raising her head, Michelle looked at Leon and answered, “I dreamed of Leon.”

“What? Me?” Leon was surprised and then smiled. “What did I do in your dream?”

He looked at Michelle with interest, barely able to wait for what she was going to say next.

He thought, ‘She is so interesting. She praised me for my beauty and my voice. And she dreamt of me.

I wonder what happened in her dream.’

Nina was stunned. She thought that Michelle could only remember dreams about delicious food.

Bu it was not strange for Michelle to dream of Leon. She knew him, and it made sense that memories of him lived in her subconscious mind.

Nina just felt it strange that Michelle could remember a dream that was not about food.

Nina and Leon waited for Michelle’s answer.

Michelle tilted her head and said, “Leon turned into a strawberry cake in my dream, and then I ate it.”

Leon did not know what to say. He definitely was not expecting such an answer.

Nina burst out laughing.

She knew the dream involved food.

“Mimi, do you want to eat some strawberry cake?” Michelle usually ate the food she dreamed of the night before.

Sometimes, Nina suspected that Michelle might have starved to death in her previous life. That was why she had dreams about food all the time.

“Yes.” When it came to food, Michelle became energetic. She put down the pillow and happily trotted to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. “Nini, wait for me. After I wash up, we’ll go get some strawberry cake.”

“Okay, take your time. I’ll be here.” Nina lounged on the sofa with a smile and waited for Michelle.

Noticing that Michelle was walking around barefoot, Leon could not help frowning.

He stood up, took a pair of slippers, and followed her to the bathroom. He walked in on her while she was brushing her teeth. She saw him come in through the mirror and turned her head at him.

“Brother?” she mumbled with a mouth full of bubbling toothpaste.

“You’re barefoot,” Leon pointed out.

“Really?” Michelle lowered her head and moved her feet. “Oh. I didn’t realize I forgot to put on slippers.”

Leon smiled, stooped down, and set the slippers in front of her. “Here. Put these on.”

“Thank you.” Michelle put on the slippers and looked down at him.

When he stood up again, he towered over her. He was 1.85 meters tall while she stood 1.6 meters. She looked up and stared at him longingly.

“What’s wrong?” Leon asked when he noticed her staring.

Michelle smiled and said simply, “You are not only good-looking but also kind.”

Leon chuckled. He reached out his hand and patted her head. “Brush your teeth quickly. I’ll take you to get some strawberry cake.”

“Okay.” Michelle nodded with a smile and continued to brush her teeth.

Before heading out of the bathroom, Leon looked back at her.

He thought, ‘What an interesting girl.’
