Chapter 183

“Mr. Alston…?” Her face was filled with surprise.

Even though the argument last night was horrible, Amelie didn’t want to bring it up again. Instead, she

just looked around and asked, “Are you here to talk about business? If that’s the case, then… Bye.”

She only took one step before Leo suddenly grabbed her wrist.

She looked at the man who grabbed her wrist in confusion. “What’s wrong, Mr. Alston?”

Leo didn’t speak but just dragged her into the car with all his might.

After he closed the car door with a bang, he drove away.

This confused Amelie even more as she asked a few times, “What are you doing?”

Leo did not respond. He continued driving before slamming on the brakes when they reached a

secluded place.

Amelie was unprepared, and she flung forward due to the inertia.

However, someone managed to grab her before she came into close contact with the car’s board.

She looked up and met Leo’s dark eyes.

His eyes were still as cold as before. “Four years ago, a billionaire woman with an annual income of

more than ten million pretended to have nothing. She came to my house to be my wife, and for what?”

His voice was piercing and cold as he asked the question.

When Amelie heard his words, she was stunned.

He didn’t even hide it. He never cared about her in the four years of their marriage. She never thought

he would care or even notice her for the rest of his life.

When she saw his piercing eyes on her, she smiled sadly.

This was ironic.

It was he who had forgotten his vows. He betrayed their relationship, yet now he was the one who was

questioning her.

Where did he get the right to ask that?

The more she thought about it, the less she wanted to talk about it. She finally responded coldly, “For

what? Probably it was to experience life.”

There was instantly a sharp pain in her arm.

Leo had tightened his grip on her arm into a painful squeeze.

Her slender arms in his hands felt as if he could break them at any moment!

His face showed his apparent anger, and his eyes were bitterly cold!

He couldn’t help but slightly ground his teeth to vent some of his fury.

Then, as though that wasn’t enough, he hissed menacingly to convey his displeasure!

Leo thought of thousands of possibilities on the way, but he never thought she would give him such an

answer!

Experience life?

What did she mean?

She didn’t marry him because she had feelings for him.

It was just a coincidence!

If she were with someone else that night, she would’ve accepted it too and gotten married to someone

else!

This thought was like a curse, and it locked him in place.

His blood was boiling.

He didn’t know if it was from anger or abject despair!

“Mr. Alston, you’re hurting me,” Amelie told him blankly.

Suddenly, he shoved her away angrily. “Leave!”

There was no emotion in his tone. Instead, it made her seem like she was something that he could

discard at any time.

Even though Amelie had seen all his cruelty towards her, she still felt rather hurt.

However, she quickly hid her feelings.

She wasn’t going to let her feelings show today.

There was no need to.

She tugged on her sleeve indifferently and opened the door to leave.

Leo stared at her back, and she felt his sharp gaze on her.

It was obvious with how she just walked off that she didn’t care.

He smacked the steering wheel harshly!

Amelie had walked for a while before she felt the dampness on her face.

She touched her face and realized it was her tears.

She stared at her wet fingers absent-mindedly.

Then, she finally wiped it off with a tissue.

When she was done, she threw the tissue in a bin as if nothing had happened.

Leo sat in the car silently.

No one knew what he was thinking as he sat there as still as a statue.

The knot in his chest didn’t disappear after Amelie left. Instead, it felt even tighter.

He obviously had no feelings for this woman, but why was he so infuriated when he heard her answer?

Could it be that he really fell in love with her?

No, that would be ridiculous.

She had played with him for four years. He should despise her!

He was drowning in his sorrow when his phone rang out of the blue.

He quickly pushed his feelings aside and picked up the phone in his usual, cold tone, “Hello?”

“Leo, come quick.” On the other side of the phone, Ashton’s voice was panicked, “Elyse is ill. She’s

hospitalized.”

Leo immediately rushed to the hospital and quickly found Elyse’s ward.

Ashton was already inside.

He immediately stood up when he saw Leo with a gloomy look on his face.

He didn’t forget to remind Leo, “She’s sick. So, don’t say anything that will rile her up.”

With that, Ashton stepped aside.

Elyse was lying on the bed weakly. Her face was pale, and her lips were chapped. She wasn’t as

beautiful as she was before.

Her eyes were half closed, and her thick eyelashes rested on her cheeks. Her lashes were so dark that

they contrasted against her pale face, making her look even frailer.

As if she was aware of his presence, her eyes rolled under her eyelids before opening slowly to look at

him.

“Le…o.” Her voice was weak, pitiful, and trembling. She seemed to be choking on tears.

Leo walked over to her and looked at her. “What’s going on?”

“It’s nothing serious. Ashton is just making a big fuss.” Her voice was low, but she began to pant after

saying a few words.

“What do you mean it’s nothing serious? If you didn’t get to the hospital in time, you would’ve…” Ashton

retorted huffily before he gradually sounded close to sobbing.

Leo didn’t say anything. Instead, he called the doctor over and asked about her condition in detail.

The doctor’s face was solemn as he explained, “The patient’s condition has always been unstable.

Because of the years of depression, the brain tumor is beginning to compress her nerves. Therefore,

her condition can worsen at any time.”

The word ‘brain tumor’ pierced Leo’s heart like a bullet.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

Finally, he quietly asked, “What can be done now?”

The doctor looked at Elyse gravely. “The brain tumor is in a difficult spot. The risk for surgery is very

high. From the doctor’s consultation, the best treatment would be to put her under medication to control

the growth of the tumor. It’s better to leave operating until the last resort. As her family, you all need to

be there for the patient so she can face this more optimistically.”

“Alright, thank you.”

After the doctor left, Elyse burst into tears.

Ashton rushed over to comfort her.

This made her cry even harder. “Ashton, what should I do? I won’t even be able to care for myself in

the future. What if I lost my memories? If that happens, I’d rather die!”

“No, no. It won’t happen,” Ashton hurriedly said. When he noticed that Elyse kept crying, he turned and

looked at Leo, “Leo, you should comfort her.”

Leo walked closer to her and said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, the doctor said that there’s medicine to

control it.”

“But taking medicine will have a lot of side effects. I’ll lose my hair and become hideous. It’s horrible,

and I don’t want it!” Elyse cried, her tears streaming down her face pitifully. “How will I be able to face

people that way?”

She continued to sob for a long time. Finally, when she stopped, she lay limp on the bed and fell into a

deep sleep.

Elyse’s eyelashes were still wet with tears.

Her eyes were still swollen, and her face was clearly distraught.

Ashton slammed his fist into the wall when he saw her in such a state.

After his violent reaction, he suddenly turned around and harshly grabbed Leo’s shoulders. “Leo, since

Elyse is in such a terrible condition, can’t you do something? Since you’ve decided to start dating

again, why don’t you propose to her now? Your proposal will lift her mood, and she won’t feel helpless.

It will be good for her condition.”
