When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165

Confused by Amelie’s words, Leo was stunned. “What do you mean what do I want?”

“Bria is sick!” she exclaimed from the other side of the phone. “Did you do something? I just contacted the teacher, and I was told you were the only one who visited her during the day!”

When he heard that Bria was sick, his expression changed at once. “Turn around!” he yelled, instructing the

driver.

Since they were on a highway, the driver couldn’t turn around, so he had to drive all the way to the nearest

exit.

Although Leo was anxious, he couldn’t say much. In the end, he told Amelie, “I’m coming back now. We’ll talk

later.”

After the driver turned around, he headed straight to the hospital.

While sitting in the car, Leo could see Amelie standing at the hospital entrance, even from a distance. She had. a slender and delicate body. Since the lighting wasn’t bright enough, she seemed to have blended into the darkness. However, for some reason, he could recognize her at a glance. Her hands were clasped tightly together, and he could feel her tension even through the car window.

Then, he ordered the driver to flash the high beams to alert her.

Her eyes, which were staring into space, finally focused, and her gaze landed on his car under the guidance of the headlights. She strode toward him after seeing him in the car.

“How’s Bria?” He quickly got out of the car as well to meet her.

Originally, her face was filled with anxiety, but when she saw him, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed. “Leo Alston! Can’t we just fight in court openly and fairly? Why do you have to resort to these dirty tricks? What good does it do if you gain Bria’s custody by defaming me? She’ll hate you forever when she finds out the truth!” Her words came out in one breath. She had said it in a fierce tone with a serious expression.

With a frown, he spoke in a low voice, “Can you first tell me what happened to Bria?” She came at him with accusations right off the bat, confusing him, but at that moment, he was genuinely worried about Bria.

When she heard his question about Bria, Amelie realized she had been too agitated. So, she controlled her temper before explaining. “Bria suddenly felt discomfort in her stomach, and the doctor said it was caused by mild food poisoning. She had lunch at school today, but if the school’s food was the issue, she shouldn’t be the only one with this condition. I asked the teacher, and she said you went to see her during the day and stayed with her for a long time. What did you do to her?”

Amelie had been busy all day today, and with the lawsuit, she reached home very late. Only when she reached home did she find out that Bria had waited for her without having anything for dinner. So, she went upstairs to

Immediately, she and Steven rushed Bria to the hospital, and they found out she had food poisoning after the

doctor’s examination.

How could she not have any suspicions? When she started suspecting, her suspicions naturally fell on Leo.

He understood what she meant and couldn’t help but rub his eyebrows in frustration, but the main thing he was concerned about at this moment was still Bria’s condition. “How is she now? Did the doctor say that she’s in

danger?”
