Chapter 660 What Kind of Woman Do You Like?
Leanna smiled when she saw how hard Charlotte tried to explain herself. "Alright, now. Dinner will be
ready soon. Louis, come to the kitchen and help me."
"Kay." Louis nodded.
Watching them walk toward the kitchen, Charlotte, who felt alive again, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Zoe was beside Charlotte when she thought she should lighten the mood so that Charlotte wouldn't
feel too awkward. Quickly, she started to talk to Daphne about what happened on the internet these
days.
At the same time in the kitchen, Leanna passed Louis a potato for him to peel.
When Louis went to get a knife, Leanna abruptly asked, "Did you meet Theodore?"
Louis jolted to a pause before promptly answering her. "I didn't."
"How did your face get injured, then?"
"It's got nothing to do with him."
Leanna glanced at the living room as she slowly mentioned, "Daphne asked me about this. We may
have to discuss it over dinner. Are you sure you don't want to tell me the truth?"
He stood there without a word for a few seconds before turning around to peel the potatoes. In a way,
he was admitting to it despite not saying anything.
Leanna wanted to ask him if he hit Theodore, but the answer to her question was clearly on Louis' face.
Instead, she asked, "Where is Theodore now?"
"The hospital."
"Not bad. He wrote a letter of apology even though he is in the hospital. That means he's still alive."
Louis only quietly lowered his head.
Leanna asked again, "But how did you know where to find him?"
"I met him once before. He went to the underground parking lot after I gave him a call."
"He didn't bring any bodyguards with him or call the police?"
"Keaton was there as well."
Leanna stayed quiet for a moment. "So, you guys ganged up on him?"
Except for Louis, Keaton and those other subordinates were all in their 20s and 30s. It was hard for her
to imagine men of their age doing something like a group fight.

Even though Theodore deserved a beating, Leanna wasn't an advocate of such a method.
"No, I was the only one who threw hands."
When Theodore went to the underground garage yesterday, he was punched before he could see
where Louis was.
His pride as a man must have fueled him when he called about how insulting it was when he was in
that one-sided fight a few days ago.
Theodore's bodyguards immediately stepped forward to stop Louis, but Theodore raised a hand to
signal them to leave it to him.
He then took off his coat and swung his fists as he approached Louis. Clearly, he wanted to put up a
good fight to get back the dignity that he lost.
He could somewhat fight back at first, but by the end of it, he was pathetically shielding his head with
both arms.
Louis threw mean and accurate punches. Almost every strike was aimed at where Theodore had the
weakest defenses.
His voice was icy when he reminded Theodore, "I warned you. Don't get ideas about her."
Theodore couldn't even utter one complete sentence as he continuously groaned.
His bodyguards wanted to step forward when they saw this, but a few people appeared out of nowhere
and stopped them.
Keaton quickly pulled the enraged Louis away from Theodore. "Hey, hey. That's enough. You're going
to kill him if you keep at it."
That was how Theodore managed to stay alive.
Seeing the gloomy and ruthless look in the young man's eyes, Theodore really thought for a few
seconds there that he was so close to knocking on hell's door. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't
afraid.
As his bodyguards helped him up, he coughed and threatened Louis that he would call the police.
Keaton stepped forward with a phone in his hand right then. "Mr. Frost, President Presgrave would like
a word with you."
Leanna had an idea of what exactly happened when Louis got to this part of the story. It was no wonder
Jonathan didn't know anything when Daphne asked him.

Keaton must have known something was going to happen when Louis decided to confront Theodore.
That's why he followed Louis and told Aidan about it.
It's no wonder Aidan wanted me to "pay up" before he told me anything. It's quite… interesting.
She turned to look at Louis. "Have you ever thought about what you would do if Keaton hadn't followed
you and Theodore had called the cops? If there is a case against you, you could risk getting expelled
from school."
"It's not a case that I will be sentenced for. the most my school would do was give me a stern warning.
And if I do something that brings honor to my school in the future, my punishment can be revoked. I
can participate in a few more competitions to offset it."
I almost forgot how much more knowledgeable about this Louis is than me. Leanna thought to herself
before asking, "You went after considering all this?"
Louis didn't answer again.
Leanna didn't know how she should feel about her brother for already having a way out planned.
She pondered for a moment before she reminded him, "Louis, I'm not saying that you're wrong. It's just
that you shouldn't have acted on impulse when you didn't even know what Theodore was capable of.
Sure, he can't do anything to you now since he has been hospitalized. But what about after he
recuperates? What makes you think he won't attempt to take his revenge on you? You should try to
think of another way if something like this ever happens again."
"There is only one way to deal with someone like him."
He would only worry about the consequences when he felt fear.
"And I'm not scared of him taking revenge. As long as he doesn't end up killing me, I—"
His words were cut short when Leanna whacked him on the head. "Peel your potatoes."
"Oh."
Leanna then turned around to continue chopping the vegetables.
The reason she didn't want to continue the conversation was that she had the sudden realization that
what she was saying now was the same thing Aidan told her last night.
She couldn't help feeling amused even though she was sighing.
It was no wonder Zoe always said that Leanna and Louis were undoubtedly siblings, seeing as to how
they both had the same temperament and personality.
And since that was the case, Leanna didn't feel like she wasn't in the position to advise Louis.
Louis was well aware of what he was doing when he did it. Not only did he consider all the possible

outcomes of his actions, but he also thought about how he should clean everything up.
…
Louis and Daphne left together after dinner.
When they got downstairs, Daphne offered Louis a ride home.
"It's alright." He rejected her. "We're not going the same way."
Daphne was quiet for a while before she retorted, "But you said we were when you dropped me off last
time."
Louis seemed to pause for a moment there. Still, he calmly answered her. "My last place wasn't a
comfortable place to stay. I moved yesterday."
Baffled, Daphne took a look at the time and insisted. "I don't have anything planned after I go home. I
don't mind driving the long way round to send you home."
"It's fine." Louis' lips were slightly pursed. "I live far from here."
"How far can it be? Is it out of the city?"
"I'm not going home now. I have something to handle."
Daphne walked out of the elevator after it came to a stop. "I can send you back as long as it's in
Highside. Come on, get in."
Louis only followed her after he stood there hesitating for a moment.
After they got in the car, Daphne's driver asked, "Where to?"
Daphne turned to Louis, who then simply replied, "To Pearson Group, please."
Other than the stereo that played a few songs Daphne usually listened to, it was quiet in the car
throughout the journey.
Some time must have passed before Daphne suddenly asked, "What kind of woman do you like?"
Louis must have been taken aback by her unexpected question. He only uttered after he froze for a
second. "What?"
"I heard from Leanna that there is someone you have a crush on! What is she like? Is she from your
school?"
"She's not."
"From the school next to your school?"
"Nope."
"Well, is she—"
He interrupted her. "She's not someone you know."
Daphne chuckled at that. "I'm just curious about why you like her."
