Chapter 107

Truly Outstanding

“What’s wrong?”

When Elyse saw his face like this, she turned to look at his phone.

However, he had put away his phone. “I have something urgent to do. You go in alone.”

Without waiting for Elyse’s response, he strode away.

In the private room at Prix Bar.

When Toby walked in, he saw Leo already sitting inside. Leo was wearing a black shirt that contrasted
against his fair skin, and his expression was very serious and unhappy.

“Didn’t you accompany Elyse to the funfair? It’s over so soon?” Toby asked, looking slightly surprised.

However, Leo didn’t respond and just drank on his own. After Toby came in, Leo’s brows furrowed even
tighter. Seeing that he didn’t speak, Toby didn’t ask any more questions. Toby sat across from him and
poured alcohol. He often wore white clothes, and he looked gentle and stylish in his clothes.

Leo’s eyes darkened as they fell on him. “You like Amelie?” he asked.

Toby paused when he poured the alcohol, but it was only for two seconds.

“Yeah.” He gave an affirmative answer.

Leo’s fingers holding the glass suddenly tightened as his knuckles turned white. The thin glass nearly
broke under his forceful grip.

“She’s such a nasty woman; what do you like about her?” he asked with a snort.



He gritted his teeth as he continued, “When did your tastes become so bad?”

Toby’s fingers also clenched hard at that, and a slight displeasure appeared on his face. His
displeasure came from Leo’s evaluation of Amelie. However, he didn’t point it out but instead smiled. “I
think my tastes have improved. In your opinion, Amelie is a nasty woman, but in my opinion, she is truly
outstanding.”

Leo stiffened, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Even though Amelie had changed a lot after the
divorce, he definitely didn’t think that this woman was outstanding.

“Since when did you start falling in love with her?” He lowered his head and sipped his wine, pretending
to be indifferent.

Toby narrowed his eyes slightly. His long eyelashes overshadowed his gaze while he thought carefully.
“When did I fall in love with her? It was probably when she knelt on the ground covered in blood and
begged the doctor to draw her own blood to save her daughter. The doctor refused, and she cut herself
to give the blood to her daughter.”

Leo’s lips paused on the rim of the glass when he heard that. It was as if someone had hit his back
hard with a stick, and his whole body was numb from the pain. After a while, he slowly raised his head
and looked at Toby with shocked eyes. Toby had mentioned this before, but he had never spoken so
clearly before.

Amelie even cut herself?

Toby was deep in his thoughts and wasn’t paying attention to Leo’s reaction. He continued, “In other
people’s eyes, she is crazy, but to me, she is a mother who is strong for her child and can do anything
for her child. She may have made mistakes, but how bad can a woman who can devote herself to her
child to this extent be? Saving her daughter without consideration of her own life is enough to show that
she loves this child a lot, and she probably loves the person who gave her this child a lot too.”



Cough! Cough cough cough!

Leo suddenly choked, and he coughed violently. The discomfort in his throat spread to his heart and
lungs, and his heart and lungs were affected with sharp and painful spasms!

It wasn’t until this moment that he suddenly realized that perhaps it wasn’t because of benefits that
Amelie forcibly tied herself to him back then, but because of… Love!

Therefore, the thoughtfulness that she had shown was not to solely please him, but because she loved
him from the bottom of her heart! The more he thought about it, the worse he coughed. The pain in his
chest was getting worse! With fingers clenched tightly on his chest, he felt there was something silently
flowing through him there. It took him a long time to stabilize himself a little.

“Since you know that her life has not been easy, don’t trouble her anymore! With her situation and
status, your family will not accept her!” he said in a deep voice.

Toby rubbed his eyebrows with a wry smile. “It’s not a question of whether my family accepts her, but
whether she accepts me. If she accepts me, I’m happy to leave my family for her.”

Leo was speechless. He stared fixedly at Toby without many expressions on his face, but his heart was
already filled with turmoil. Toby is willing to give up everything for her?

His chest tightened more and more as if an air pump had been installed in his chest cavity, making him
unable to breathe!

Toby put down his wine glass and stood up. He put his hands down and looked at Leo. “Leo, I don’t
care what you did to her before. But she has divorced you now. If you dare to hurt her again, I swear I
will go against you!”

These last words sounded powerful!



Snap! The glass in Leo’s hand was broken into two pieces by him! Blood-red liquid mixed with blood
dripped down, but he didn’t seem to feel the pain. He also stood up, the coldness on his face apparent.

“You actually would turn against me because of a woman?”

Toby didn’t say anything more, and he walked away. Leo stood on the spot like a wood carving, with
fury visible in his eyes. But he couldn’t figure out whether this anger was because Toby wanted to turn
against him, or whether Toby fell in love with his ex-wife.

“Leo!” Elyse ran in from the outside.

Holding his bleeding hand in distress, she asked, “How did you injure yourself like this?”

“I’ve heard that Amelie wrote a message to part with you for good and gave it to Jodie. She wanted
Toby to marry her with ease. I think she might really like Toby. You don’t have to worry about Toby at
all.”

Her words caused Leo’s fingers to clench tightly again, and he didn’t even notice that he was clenching
her fingers too. Elyse felt a sharp pain coming and exclaimed, but he didn’t respond. All he could think
about was the message that Jodie sent him before, which consisted of the note where Amelie said that
she would no longer pester him!

After a while, he let go suddenly upon realizing that he had hurt Elyse. Elyse rubbed her fingers in pain.
They had turned purple. With unhappiness on her face, she said, “The wound on your hand is very
deep. Let’s go to the hospital to get it checked.”

Leo didn’t respond but stepped past her and strode away.

Elyse was speechless at that.



After settling down Bria, Amelie checked the things to bring again. She then found that there was no
water in the car. Hence, she came down with the key and walked to the 24-hour supermarket. But after
only a few steps, she saw Leo standing on the side of the road dressed in black with cold eyes.
Noticing her coming out, he suddenly raised his head and looked over. His expression was gloomy and
hostile.

Although startled by his look, Amelie didn’t show it. A mocking smile crept across her face. “Oh, are
you afraid that I won’t leave, Mr. Alston? So, you came here to make sure that I leave? Don’t worry. I’ve
promised to leave the city. From now on, we will never cross paths again. If you’re worried, Mr. Alston,
you can just send a few people to watch me instead of coming here in person.”

Her tone was light as if she was joking, but her expression said otherwise. Leo clenched his fists tightly
at that. Then, he walked over, grabbed Amelie’s shoulders abruptly, and pressed her into his arms all at
once!
