When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 232

“She’s?” Leo asked.

Toby suddenly smiled. “Leo, looks like you’ve really fallen for her, haven’t you?”

If not, then why would he be so sensitive to what I said?

Staying silent with his dark eyebrows seeming extra heavy in the night, Leo seemed very solemn.

Pursing his lips, Leo slowly matched his gaze. “So what if I’ve fallen for her?”

This stunned Toby.

What appeared in his eyes was understanding and surprise.

He thought that Leo would deny it like the last time or keep silent.

At least he admitted to it.

“Hahaha.” After a split second, Toby suddenly laughed.

Yet, Leo only stood there and watched him laugh with a frown, not asking him anything.

This was what Leo was. Even if the opposition had already touched on his emotions, he could still remain calm and collected.

This was why he was successful and was the characteristic Toby detested.

At that moment, he had the urge to tear Leo apart when he recalled how Leo actually hurt such a wonderful woman before.

A woman that, for him, would hide her skills and humble herself!

“Leo, you best not fall for her,” Toby stated.

“Reason?” Leo asked.

He was a leopard that was observing his prey and dissecting its every move and action.

Leo could see that Toby had something else to say.

Yet, Toby only kept a smile on his face and did not say anything else.

Even if his smile was the same as ever, Leo could clearly feel a chilling aura coming from it.

The next moment, he turned around and got into his car, driving away, leaving Leo standing there.

…

“Mr. Alston.”

Deep in the night, Victor came to Leo’s office.

Dressed in black, he looked as if he was almost fusing with the darkness and moved through the night like a specter, his wide hat concealing the emotions on his face.

Leo sat on the chair, deep in thought.

It was until Victor called out to him that he stood up.

“Are you sure the information you gave me last time was correct?” he asked.

A bit confused, Victor then realized that Leo was talking about the dossier on Amelie.

“It’s correct,” he answered. “I, Victor Willis, am a man of my word. If I can’t dig anything up, I’ll lower my head and apologize to you, but I’ll never give out false information.”

Leo placed his hands on the table while looking at Victor.

Even though this made him shorter, it did not make him seem weaker.

As to who was the employer and the employee, one could tell with a single glance.

“What I meant to ask is that did anyone give you false information that even you yourself missed?”

“That’s impossible.” Victor was confident.

Upon hearing that, Leo only nodded before opening his drawer.

Then, he threw something on the table. “Take a look. Is it this dossier?”

Reaching out, Victor took it and only glanced at the cover. “It’s not.”

“It’s not?” Leo was a bit surprised.

Waving the dossier, Victor stated, “All dossiers prepared by me would have my signature on the side. This doesn’t have it.”

He pointed at the side of the dossier, which was as thin as a hair’s breadth.

“This is my special mark. Normal people wouldn’t notice this.”

With how thin the line was, even if Victor did sign on it, a normal human would not be able to see it.

Taking back the dossier, Leo used the magnification features of his phone’s camera only to find no such mark on it.

Does this mean someone switched out the information?

“I still have the information. If you want, I can send it again,” suggested Victor.

Saying nothing, Leo slowly put down the dossier, as his fingers dug into the top of the dossier.
