When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Elyse Stole Her Credit

“Amelie, has it ever occurred to you that Elyse’s real purpose is to steal your credit?!”

“Steal my credit?” Amelie froze for a second.

She got what Julia meant, but…

“This is ultimately just an assumption. Don’t go around rambling,” she advised.

To that, Julia quirked her lips and huffed indignantly. “We’ll know as soon as we dig into it, won’t we? We can overlook all the losses we’ve suffered and the sacrifices we’ve made now that we’re staying away from those b*stards and b*tches, but that doesn’t mean we should let her claim the credit that isn’t hers! It is what it is. Elyse trampled over you four years ago in exchange for momentary peace and a few years of prosperity. Now, four years later, she wants to trample over you again in exchange for a happy ever after with Leo?! Fat chance!”

Julia was right. She could overlook everything in the past, but it didn’t mean people could walk all over her as they pleased.

“I’ll look into this matter myself.” She didn’t want to drag Julia into this nonsensical mess.

“I’m already on it, and we’ll be hearing some news soon!” Julia quirked her brows profoundly.

The next second, her phone rang, and it was a call from Samuel.

“You have the report?!” Julia raised her brows after hearing Samuel’s words.

With that, Julia took Amelie to her place, where Samuel had already been waiting.

He was dressed in a dark gray dress shirt, and the tie on his neck showed that he had just arrived not long ago.

Upon seeing Amelie, he quirked his chin as a greeting, but before Amelie could even speak, she was already handed her favorite latte.

“Come on, give it to us,” pressed Julia, a short-tempered one, before even sitting down.

Samuel shook his head helplessly at her as affection poured from his eyes.

He was long used to her short temper and knew that there was nothing anyone could do about it.

“I did some digging at the hospital, and the reading states that Elyse’s eyes are perfectly normal,” he revealed while pushing Julia to a seat. “But here’s the interesting part. Someone overheard Elyse’s examining doctor and nurse say her left eye has zero vision and that she deliberately kept quiet about it because she didn’t want Leo to know. The best part is that Leo overheard it. At the same time, he also sent his men to find his cornea donor. However, there hasn’t been a follow-up since Elyse got her eyes checked.”

Samuel had many jobs under his name, but his very first one was as a detective. Having operated the business for years, he had long developed a fine network. As such, obtaining information like this was a piece of cake to him.

“We can be almost certain that Elyse has stolen your credit. She’s pretending to be blind and deceiving Leo as his cornea donor! Can this woman be any more shameless?!” Julia slammed the table in anger repeatedly, wanting nothing more than to mangle the woman. “That’s it! I’m going to capture her and show the world just who she is!”

Julia allowed her anger to take over her and decided to capture the woman immediately.

“So what if you capture her? What about her can you show to the world?” Samuel pulled her back helplessly. “Her report shows that her eyes are working just fine. Capture her, and you’ll be the one affected.”

“What now, then? Are we going to just let her bully Amelie as she pleases?!” Julia’s eyes turned bloodshot as she roared.

Then, she looked toward Amelie, and her heart wrenched at the thought that her friend could never see with both eyes ever again.

“Julia, Samuel’s right.” Amelie joined Samuel in dissuading the young woman. She soothed, saying, “Elyse is completely innocent on the surface. We have nothing on her.”

“That b*tch is too smart.” Julia seethed with rage.

In actuality, Amelie didn’t want to make a fuss about the matter.
