Chapter 190

The reporters quickly surrounded Leo and bombarded him with questions.

“Since today is your engagement day, Mr. Alston, have you decided when the wedding will be?”

“Will Miss Clayton still be acting after the engagement, or will she quit the job? Have you guys talked

about this?”

“I heard that Miss Clayton’s dress is handled by Mrs. Alston. A famous designer created the dress, and

she even checked on the work progress. Does that mean Miss Clayton and Mrs. Alston are on good

terms?”

When Leo saw the reporters, he gritted his teeth and wore a cold expression. Then, he snapped his

head toward Elyse as he glared at her.

She ignored his gaze as she approached him with a smile. Then, she linked her arm with his and

snuggled her head on his shoulder.

“You told me you will protect and respect me for the sake of Ellen,” she whispered to him. “Now, it’s

time for you to show your respect to me.” A hint of provoke flashed across her eyes.

If Leony refuses to be engaged with me, I will force him to! Thinking about it, Elyse smiled brightly at

the reporters.

Since they stood close together, the crowd, who was unaware of the truth, was sure they were a lovely

couple when they saw her smile. At that moment, they raised their cameras and took pictures of them.

During the whole process, Leo had a cold and unnatural countenance.

Although the crowd felt it was a shame that they could not get a picture of him smiling, they did not

mind since they knew he had a cold personality.

Despite Leo’s grimace, Elyse could feel that the arm she wrapped around was not as stiff as before,

seemingly a sign that he had agreed to play along with her.

Initially, she was nervous. However, at that moment, she looked proud. I knew it. No matter how

unwilling Leony is, he will never embarrass me in front of the public. Loyalty is his weakness and my

tool to use against him. Today, I am going to shine with this opportunity! I don’t care what will happen

next.

In recent times, she was doubted and criticized. Thus, now that she could be herself, she hung her

head up high looking proud.

It was then that Leo’s phone buzzed. Then, he withdrew his occupied arm and grabbed his phone. It’s

Amelie!

When Elyse saw the number, her heart sank. However, she quickly smiled again and thought, Amelie

has always been up against me. It’s time to teach her a lesson. Since she chose to call Leony at this

moment, I will let her know how blissful I am right now!

As she thought about it, she acted virtuous and said, “Hurry up and answer the phone, Leony.”

Many reporters were close to him and saw who was calling him. After many incidents, they knew that

Amelie was his ex-wife. As such, many were excited to see what would unfold and nodded thoughtfully

when they heard Elyse’s words.

Her words would make the crowd feel like she was a kind-hearted woman. On the other hand, it would

also show that the feelings she and Leo had were strong enough to withstand Amelie’s call.

This was what Elyse had wanted; she was thrilled and felt like a genius who could manipulate others.

She acted as if she was blessed and the woman Leo truly loved.

Hence, the reporters praised them. “You two are so in love with each other.”

“You guys are so sweet.”

Hearing their words, Elyse giggled and looked at them with bright eyes. “I’m sure you guys will have a

happy life like me.”

Just as her words fell, Leo answered the call, “Hello?”

However, Bria’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Daddy! Quick! Save Mommy and

Grandpa!”

“What’s the matter?” His face changed drastically when he heard her words.

“We were shopping at the grocery store when the racks fell. Mommy pushed me away and went to

save Grandpa. I can’t find them…” She sobbed.

For some reason, Leo had put his phone on speaker. Thus, everyone overheard what Bria had said.

In the meantime, the joyful Elyse froze and twitched her lips, digging her nails into her skin. Amelie is

doing this on purpose! She is pretending to be in an accident when today is my engagement day!

Although Elyse was furious, she did not show it on her face and asked with concern, “Oh my. Although

the paramedics will be at the store, we still have to send someone to the rescue. We can’t let them…”

Before she had finished her words, Leo darted toward the door, saying, “Which store are you at?!”

Looking at him, she was speechless. Initially, she said those words because she thought he would only

send someone to save Amelie; she wanted to mislead people into thinking that he had listened to her.

However, he decided to rescue Amelie himself! Not only that, he did not even bid her goodbye. At that

moment, it was clear that Amelie was more important than her.

Elyse felt like she was being slapped across the face. The prouder she was in the beginning, the more

miserable she was now!

Then, she raised her head and saw that the reporters were looking at her in silence. The envy in their

eyes was replaced with enlightenment.

Elyse had done this upon herself and wished that the ground would swallow her up. After all, it was she

who hired those reporters. She did it to subdue Leo, but she never thought she would humiliate herself!

As she thought about it, she decided she could not stay here any longer and quickly chased after Leo.

Meanwhile, he rushed to the garage as soon as possible and jumped into the car. Just as he

accelerated, another car came his way, and they almost crashed into each other. Then, Elyse jumped

out of her car and slammed her hand against his window with puffy eyes.

“What are you doing?” Leo lowered his window and looked at her with a darkened expression.

“What am I doing? Where do you think you’re going, Leony? Are you planning on leaving me behind

and saving Amelie? Have you ever thought about the possibility that she might be fine and was just

trying to stop us from being engaged?”

When he heard her words, Amelie’s face flashed across his mind. To him, he felt like she would not

have done such an outrageous thing.

“Go away!” he ordered her.

However, Elyse would not oblige since she had already seen the reporters rushing toward them. Thus,

she grabbed the window and said with teary eyes, “Don’t you dare forget that Ellen had donated her

cornea to you. You can’t do this to me. I am her only sister! You can’t betray her!” She pursed her lips

while tears brimmed her eyes, making her look pitiful. However, deep down in her heart, she was sure

that as long as Leo was grateful for Ellen, he would never escape from her!

Then, she stopped moving, trying to force him out of the car. On the other hand, the reporters were

getting nearer. The closer they were, the more confidence she felt.

Just as she was feeling proud, her hand was suddenly pushed away. Next, a loud bang sounded.
