Love My Friends with Benefits

Chapter 38: Leonard's Takeaway

I was taken aback as I held on to my phone.

I'd just unblocked Leonard's number when the phone rang again.

I rejected the call at the thought of my takeaway that was almost here.

Based on my understanding of Leonard, he wasn't calling to talk about anything serious.

To my surprise, my phone started ringing again ten seconds later.

What on earth was he up to?

Helplessly, I answered the phone. "Hello?"

Leonard sounded furious. "How dare you hang up on me, Queena!"

Why wouldn't I?

I could only think that to myself. After all, Leonard was currently my only way to see Grandma. I didn't want to get myself into a mess by pissing him off.

I explained, "I'm hungry."

He didn't believe me. "There's food in the kitchen."

"Is that even edible..." I couldn't help muttering at the thought of the salty bacon.

Leonard didn't say anything. All I could hear was his ragged yet suppressed breathing. It sounded especially scary in the quiet of the night.

What was he angry about? Could it be...

Something dawned on me.

Could it be that Leonard had really cooked that terrible dish?

My heart leapt to my throat and I asked apprehensively, "Leonard, did you cook for me?"

I felt a little regretful. If I'd known about this earlier, I wouldn't have criticised the food so thoroughly. If Leonard got angry because of this, I'd be in trouble.

Fortunately, Leonard merely let out a sneer. "You wish."

This was great news.

I could rest assured. "You ordered takeaway for me? Thanks, then."
