Chapter 1079: Chapter 1059: The man in her heart is me!

"I’m not, I’m not a mistress!" Nor a whore!

The voice of Senna Leon was laden with a heavy sobbing tone. She had never been so disheveled in front of Rio Gordon; even when she used to hang around him every day, she was always the sunny, adorable Little Princess, dressed brightly and beautifully.

Rio Gordon didn’t speak but merely nodded, his gaze icy as he stared at the man opposite him, "Aren’t you going to let go?!"

Perhaps it was the chill in the man’s eyes that did it, for Davis Wood released the woman’s hand suddenly, as if he had been holding onto a hot potato and couldn’t wait to let go.

"Mr. Gordon, don’t be fooled by her innocent appearance! She’s nothing but a homewrecker!"

The woman he couldn’t have, he would destroy instead. But Rio Gordon, in the whole of Andras City, was known by everyone—a new legend. To say there wasn’t a shred of fear in his heart would be impossible.

"Ha, so even you notice her purity?"

"That’s all an act, let me tell you, Mr. Gordon. She even has a child, definitely with some other man; it’s a daughter, not a son. No one wants to marry her because she’s divorced, living with a bastard child, so that’s why she’s out here on blind dates!"

This news was revealed to him by the matchmaker only after he had seen the photo and expressed his satisfaction. She currently had a child in tow, but not her own, which would eventually be returned to the child’s real father. Since the child wasn’t hers, it didn’t matter to him, and after taking one look, he had been interested, so he agreed.

Having met her in person and wanting her even more, he now felt emboldened to ruin her—to make sure she couldn’t stay in Andras City any longer.

All Senna Leon could register was an explosive roar inside her head. She had no idea how he knew about the child she was looking after, but she certainly couldn’t let him slander her like this, especially since it was not good for the child’s upbringing. She wasn’t the child of a mistress; she had a mother and a father!

"Johnson Wood, you scoundrel, every child has parents and deserves respect. How can you call her a bastard? Don’t you know how to respect children? And besides, she’s not even..." My words were cut off before I could finish, interrupted directly by Rio Gordon.

"A case of sour grapes, perhaps, Mr. Wood? Rejected on a blind date and now you stoop to slander? That doesn’t seem very appropriate!"

Rio Gordon’s voice was unexpectedly lazy, but the color in his eyes was so cold it was frightening, their sharp gaze as though it meant to shred him to pieces the next moment.

"Mr. Gordon, she just admitted herself that she has someone she likes!"

Fearing he wouldn’t believe it, Johnson Wood hurriedly explained and even took out his phone with a recording to let him listen, "Listen, this is her own admission just now, saying she’s fond of someone, even wearing a goose-yellow dress because it’s what her favorite person likes!"

Senna had come across despicable men, but never one as vile as to resort to recording, especially during a blind date—a first for her to hear of such a thing. However, in front of Rio Gordon, the despair that surged from this perverse exposure was quickly replaced by the shame brought on by her many years of secret crush hidden deep within her.

Faced with her own words, Senna Leon couldn’t find a single sentence to refute them with. Rio Gordon’s deep, searching gaze rested on the woman, replaying in his mind the words he had just heard over and over, all because he liked her!

Indeed, there was a time when she wore what she thought was a beautiful new white dress, coming over to bring him chocolate, holding up her dress and asking, "Isn’t the dress pretty?"

At that moment, he found her annoying; each time she sought him out, he would be unable to concentrate in class for a good while, so he bluntly told her that white was worn to funerals, and that girls looked like princesses in goose-yellow dresses!

Because that day Chani Gordon just happened to be wearing a goose yellow dress, running after her little God, he casually mentioned it. He didn’t expect she would keep it in her heart for so many years!

So...

Does it also prove that there’s still a little place for him in her heart?

Could it be that she hadn’t completely forgotten him after all these years?

"Mr. Gordon, do you believe it now, that she liked someone enough to have his child?"

Seeing Rio Gordon furrowing his brows upon hearing this, Johnson Wood hastily continued to distort the facts, "That’s why I said she’s a scammer. Mr. Gordon, you mustn’t be fooled by her!"

Senna Leon really felt like even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t clear her name. She had admitted having someone she cared for, and it was a blind date forced by her parents that had dredged up a child. Even if she explained it, Rio Gordon wouldn’t be willing to believe her!

With Rio Gordon looking at her with such intense focus, Senna Leon kept her head down, not daring to look up at him, afraid of seeing disappointment in his eyes.

No one spoke for a while, and time seemed to have suddenly come to a halt. Just when Johnson Wood thought Rio Gordon believed his words, the man suddenly spoke up.

"The person Senna said she liked in her heart, that person is me!"

His calm voice cut through the silence and blasted the thinking in both Senna Leon’s and Johnson Wood’s minds. Their eyes simultaneously widened to the fullest in shock, as surprise hit them head-on. "How is that possible?"

Who was Rio Gordon? The premier Young Master of a prestigious family. How could he follow a woman with a child? But if the child was his, how could the Gordon family tolerate letting a woman raise the child? It’s simply not possible, "The child..."

"The child is mine too!"

Having said that, he pulled Senna Leon’s hand and headed out, no longer caring about the other man. To deal with such a scoundrel, Rio Gordon didn’t even have the leisure to talk. He simply took her and left.

Sitting in Rio Gordon’s car, Senna Leon no longer knew what she was doing; her whole being was in a state of extreme panic. She knew that, even if it was surprising at the moment, from the western restaurant to the car, she should have understood by now.

Rio Gordon was merely trying to save her face. Otherwise, this man would release the voice recording online tomorrow. Even beating him up wouldn’t solve the problem.

Senna Leon sat in the passenger seat, not daring to look up at the man, but hearing the irregular and unstable breaths, she also knew his mood was far from calm; in fact, he was angry.

"I’m sorry, Rio, for causing you trouble!"

After a good while, Senna Leon still chose to speak first, "Maybe you should give your company’s media department a heads-up, or else, we’ll definitely make the headlines tomorrow!"

That goes without saying; the second Young Master of the Gordon family suddenly exposed for having an illegitimate child—that would be huge news. However, as long as Rio Gordon didn’t want it to be publicized, there were ways to stop the news from getting out. Senna Leon still believed in his abilities.
