บท 435: Guilty Conscience

After emptying her bladder, Ella and Leon returned to the ocean shore away from the party and noise. They walked side by side and hand in hand, enjoying the coldness of water on their feet. The gentle ocean blew softly making a little mess of Ella's cascading hair. She had to push it back behind her ears while gazing beyond the dark ocean horizon.

"Sweetheart, do you think I'm jealous of Anastasia's relationship with Denise?" Ella asked calmly while averting Leon's gaze. She was feeling ashamed and remorseful based on the way she acted a while ago.

Leon stopped on his track, making Ella do the same. He helped brush off the strands of hair that were blowing across her face and pulled her closer into his arms.

"Baby, it's okay to be jealous when you love someone," Leon said softly. "I guess you saw the way I reacted when Justin tried to hug you. Even though he is my kid sister's lover, I still felt jealous seeing him close to you."
