Chapter 100

She Had Become A Monster

“Are you sure?” Elyse asked with clenched fists after a moment of silence.

Ashton nodded. “I took that child’s hair with my own hands, and it was someone I’m familiar with who
carried out the test. It can’t be forged. That child is Leo’s.”

He then looked at Elyse worriedly. “What should we do about this matter?”

Elyse remained quiet.

Even though she guessed it right, the truth was still hard to accept.

Ashton failed to notice that her fingers were trembling, and her face had turned as pale as paper.

The fact that the child belonged to Leo wasn’t what she was afraid of, but that Amelie turned out to be
Big Eyes!

If word got out, Elyse couldn’t imagine the consequences. Confusion clouded her mind.

“What exactly is this woman up to?” Ashton growled irritably.

He naively thought Amelie had hidden the child’s identity not because she wanted to draw a line with
Leo, but because she was planning to launch a big move when the time came.

“Elyse!” He suddenly made up his mind and held Elyse’s arm tightly before turning her around to face
him. “Listen to me. Never tell Leo about this! I’ll figure out a way so that Amelie can’t take advantage of
this situation and cause a fuss!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open.



A tall figure entered the ward.

Elyse and Ashton turned their heads in unison, and when they saw who it was that came in, their
expressions changed at the same time.

Elyse pushed Ashton away in embarrassment, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and walked
over to Leo quickly. “Leo, are you here to see me?”

Her voice was as gentle as that of a well-behaved and docile cat.

Ashton felt extremely uncomfortable when he noticed how smitten Elyse was over Leo. He gripped his
fists silently and announced his leave. “Go on and do your thing, lovebirds. I’m leaving.”

With that, he made a beeline for the door.

After seeing Ashton leave, Elyse took a step closer to Leo. “I waited for you the whole day, Leo. Why
did you only come now?”

She then tried to lean her head on his shoulder.

Although Leo treated her differently now, he never expressed his disdain for out-of-bounds intimacy
and always let her have her way.

This time, however, he immediately flinched the moment she leaned over.

“Why did you have to do that?!” he growled in a deep voice.

Elyse was stunned for a moment as she stared at him and realized how gloomy his expression was.

An ominous feeling instantly washed over her heart, making her chest feel heavy.

“Leo, is something the matter?” she quickly inquired.



Leo turned around to look at her with icy-cold eyes.

Elyse had never seen such a cold gaze from him and was so frightened that she took a step back, at a
loss for what to do.

She then pouted. “Why are you looking at me like that? You know I’m in poor health and can’t stand
stimulation. My condition might worsen if you look at me like that.”

She adopted a pitiful tone, and tears were rolling in her eyes, threatening to fall any second now.

In the past, Leo might have subdued it even though he was extremely angry whenever she showed him
that face, and he would at least say some nice words to comfort her.

This time, however, he wasn’t as nice.

He merely stared at her as the disappointment in his eyes grew evident.

“What have you become? How could you do such an evil thing?! You messed with Amelie and her
child’s blood!” Leo let out a low growl.

The moment he finished his sentence, Elyse froze as if struck by lightning, unable to respond.

Her mind could barely make sense of what he just said.

“You are no longer the person I once knew! You have become a monster!” Leo accused her.

In the past, he thought Elyse was just a little too willful for her own good. Even when she lied to him by
falsely claiming to be kidnapped, which resulted in him abandoning Amelie and causing her to have a
miscarriage, he only blamed himself for everything.

However, he couldn’t accept her being the mastermind of the blood poisoning case.



Elyse struggled to stand up straight, but her legs shook so badly that she had no strength at all and
eventually plopped onto the bed.

She clutched the blankets with her fingers in an attempt to give herself some support, but she couldn’t!

Since Leo was so certain that she who did it, he must have had done a thorough investigation.

Denying it would exacerbate his disappointment.

But she couldn’t admit it! If she did, Leo’s impression of her would plummet.

She had let Leo down several times, so she dared not imagine how he would punish her if she
admitted her crimes!

An overwhelming sense of fear enveloped her until she felt suffocated.

Elyse took a deep breath and tried to force herself to calm down. “It must be Toby who investigated this
matter, right? Leo, I’m not going to defend myself, but I just want to remind you that Toby has always
had feelings for Amelie. If he is the one to investigate, he will only side with her!”

What she wanted to say was that Toby wouldn’t actually investigate anything at all but rather relay
whatever Amelie claimed to Leo.

“You’ve also seen how Toby always defended Amelie, haven’t you? His words aren’t credible at all!”

After she said that, a pop of color finally returned to her pale face.

She wasn’t just making things up about this, so she was certain that Leo would believe her.

Who would’ve expected that instead of easing his mood, she seemed to have worsened Leo’s
emotions?



“I didn’t hear this from Toby. It was you!”

“M-Me?” Elyse pointed at her nose, feeling extremely absurd. “Quit playing, Leo.”

Without answering her, Leo took out his phone and swiped on something.

In the room, a voice suddenly sounded, “You are always blaming me for hurting your child, but I am
actually helping you. No, to be more precise, I am helping your child. Think about it. If your child dies
due to blood poisoning, you wouldn’t have to face a situation like this, would you?”

Listening to the familiar voice, Elyse recalled what she said before. As if being struck with a stone, she
was dumbfounded!

Someone recorded her conversation!

“Are you going to tell me that the voice doesn’t belong to you? That someone imitated your voice?” Leo
glared at her coldly.

Elyse parted her lips and almost nodded.

However, Leo interrupted her. “You should know that I know your voice the most!”

Elyse was rendered speechless.

“T-There is a problem with this recording. It has been intentionally tampered with. My original sentence
wasn’t like that!” Her breath staggered as she could hardly convince herself.

Leo didn’t respond.

He did find something off with the recording as if someone intended to hide something, but the part
where Elyse threatened Amelie didn’t sound off at all!



“I’m sorry, Leo!” Now that Elyse realized she could no longer deny her actions, she decided to
surrender and apologize to him.

Thereafter, she cracked into a sob.

“I was out of my mind back then. Incident after incident overwhelmed me. I was at a loss for what to do,
so I went abroad and avoided everything, but someone later told me that Amelie was going to give birth
to a child. I couldn’t accept it, Leo. I couldn’t imagine you having a child with her. I honestly didn’t know
how I returned to the country, but when I sobered up, it was all too late! I regretted it and thought about
killing myself, but I can’t bear to leave you.”

Elyse burst into tears and slid by the bed.

She was out of breath and her body was so weak it seemed as if she was going to faint anytime soon.

Nonetheless, Leo stood quietly on the spot and clenched his fists.

He didn’t even bother to comfort her.

Elyse had committed an evil crime. He couldn’t pretend she didn’t.

Elyse cried and crawled in front of him, hugging his legs with both hands as she pleaded, “Leo, please,
don’t be upset with me, please. I wasn’t in the right mind. My mental health deteriorated after I left you.
Could you give me another chance for the sake of our relationship? I swear never to do such a thing
anymore!”

Leo merely looked down at her.

Their initial relationship was the most precious memory he had of her. They shared the warmest mutual
feelings, but she repeatedly regarded it as a privilege token.



Leo suddenly felt disinterested in her.

Slowly, he reached out to hook her fingers.

Seeing that he was finally responding, Elyse beamed and intended to fall into his embrace.

But when she realized what he was doing next, her expression morphed into shock!
