Chapter 163

“However, I have to confirm whether you are Big Eyes.”

At that moment, Elyse felt something snap in her. She was so horrified that she felt that the world was spinning! She tried to think hard about when she had exposed herself, but no thoughts came to mind. Then, she sneaked a glance at Leo.

Alas, Leo was just standing there calmly with an expressionless face. It was as if he was asking her about the

weather!

What does he know? The calmer Leo was, the more horrified Elyse became!

“Leony…” She tried hard to suppress the terror within her and acted baffled while looking at him with wide eyes. “Why are you bringing this up again? Didn’t we meet Ms. Albert last time?”

Leo merely stayed silent and stared at her.

Initially, he had trusted Ms. Albert’s explanation. However, as he recalled her words after the fact, he felt that there were many loopholes.

At this moment, Elyse was so overwhelmed with guilt that she felt her head throbbing. It felt like she was being pushed to the edge and was going to fall to her death! As she thought about it, chills ran down her spine! She wanted to maintain the peace as it was now.

Suddenly, Elyse went mad and said, “This is just an excuse, isn’t it? If you don’t want to take responsibility for me and your words, you could have just said so! You are the worst, Leony!” she exclaimed miserably while tears rolled down her cheeks, making her look pitiful.

Leo would have gone soft-hearted at this point if it was the past. But this time, he only kept quiet with a calm expression and didn’t move an inch. It was clear that he was persistent in finding out her identity.

Elyse felt terrified in the face of his stubbornness. On the other hand, Leo didn’t pressure her and just opened the door as he stood there, waiting for her in silence. It was as if he would keep waiting until she was willing to

go with him.

Nonetheless, Elyse couldn’t follow him. She dug her nails into her skin as her eyes were filled with sadness and anger. “I’m not going! It’s up to you who you think Big Eyes is! As long as I’m not guilty, I won’t care what you do! Leave! Get out of my house!” Then, she wiped her tears and ran inside.

When Leo heard her words, he turned around and left.

Although Elyse was walking into the house, she was secretly eyeing Leo. When she saw that he was leaving without a backward glance, she became terrified and even dropped the act. At that moment, she rushed toward him and hugged him from behind. “I admit that I’m not Big Eyes, Leo!”

off him! Leo furrowed his eyebrows deeply as he tried to suppress the violent reaction he had after hearing her

words.

Although Leo had guessed the truth, his heart still felt like it had been torn to pieces when he heard her admitting that she was not Big Eyes!

He could feel her tears dampening his shirt, but he didn’t feel guilty. Instead, he thought that it was disgusting! After a long time, he lowered his head and silently pulled her hands away.

This time, Elyse was genuinely sobbing. After all, she had felt the strength of Leo’s hands and his icy attitude toward her. She knew deep down that it would be over for them as soon as she released him. Thus, she shook her head vigorously while the tears kept flowing.

“I know you are angry, Leony. I also know that it is shameful of me to pretend to he Big Eyes! But this is all your fault!TM

Her words had made Leo pause in his actions. Then, he turned around and looked at her suspiciously.
