Chapter 203

“Did you just say that your grandpa lives in Quinn Town?” Leo instantly grabbed Bria’s arms as he
asked.

Bria’s expression shifted as Leo’s sudden change in behavior startled her.

Leo realized that he was being impulsive, so he quickly let go. “Sorry, Bria, I just didn’t expect that your
grandpa and your mommy would be from Quinn Town.”

Even though he had bumped into Amelie when he went to Quinn Town before, he initially thought that
she was just following him there.

Later on, he thought that she was going there on vacation.

When they got married in the beginning, he was aggrieved, so he didn’t ask much about Amelie.

He knew nothing about her except for the fact that she had a father.

Because of this new revelation, his heart skipped a beat.

Bria knew he didn’t mean it, so she stopped being afraid as she said tentatively, “Mommy grew up
there. There’s a huge river with fish in it. Grandpa took me fishing last time, and we caught a lot of
them.”

Little children only chose to talk about things they remembered the most, so they couldn’t give the
answers adults were looking for.

Nevertheless, Leo didn’t mind it, and his emotions slowly settled down.

All his investigations proved that Ellen was Big Eyes, the person who donated their cornea to him.
What did that have to do with whether Amelie was from Quinn Town or not?



He was overreacting.

Soon came the day of the event at Bria’s school.

Early in the morning, Leo made arrangements for company matters, then hastily got ready to drive so
that he could meet up with Bria and Amelie.

He had just walked a few steps when his phone rang. It was a call from Elyse.

Seeing Elyse’s number, Leo felt a sense of disgust rising within his heart, and he decided not to
answer.

Elyse only attempted to call him once and never tried again after that.

However, when Leo walked to the entrance of the company, he saw her seated in a wheelchair,
dressed thinly and looking pitifully at him.

Her face and lips were especially pale. She looked weak, sickly, and oh-so-pitiful.

When Leo saw her, his unaffected gaze darkened a little as his handsome face tensed up. “Why are
you here?”

His tone was nonchalant.

Elyse opened her mouth, but before she could speak, tears fell out of her eyes and streamed down her
face.

“Leo, I’m scared.” Her voice was shaky as well. “My phase 2 physical examination report just came out,
and the tumor in my brain is getting worse.”

As she spoke, she painstakingly wheeled herself over to him, then pitifully grabbed his leg. “I’m scared
that I might just die. Leo, can’t you accompany me?”



When Leo heard Elyse’s sobs, the warmth didn’t return to his cold eyes. Almost without hesitation, he
pulled his hand away. “I’ll find you the best doctor.”

“You know that I just want you to be with me.” As if breaking down, Elyse sobbed so hard that her body
trembled. She hugged herself pitifully, acting like an abandoned little bird.

Any man would feel pity if they saw her feeble appearance.

The care worker who was pushing the wheelchair couldn’t help but say, “Ever since Miss Clayton
received the report last night, she hasn’t slept a wink. She just kept crying, and if this goes on, her
health will get worse.”

“It’s your own body. If you don’t take care of it, you’ll be the only one suffering when things get worse,”
Leo said calmly with an indifferent look in his eyes.

He lowered his head and made a call to Eugene. “Find the world’s best brain tumor specialist within 24
hours.”

With that, he lowered his hand. “Go back to the hospital and wait.”

Then, he left.

Behind him, the care worker shook her head as she watched him leave. “What a cold-hearted man.
Under these circumstances, it’s only proper to offer at least a few words of comfort.”

Elyse was already pursing her lips tightly.

Her body, which was weak and soft moments before, had now tensed and straightened up.

Her fingers gripped the handle of the wheelchair fiercely as hatred spilled from her eyes.



“Miss Clayton, if you threaten him with your life, perhaps he would turn back.” The care worker had
received too much from Elyse, so she couldn’t help but provide some ideas.

Elyse huffed, the corners of her lips getting even more twisted.

“With my life, you say?” Leo hated her so much now, he probably wished she would just die.

If she died, he would be set free. He would no longer have any obligations to fulfill and repay what
Ellen did for him.

She must not die.

She would fight Leo to the bitter end!

Once back in the ward, Elyse diverted the care worker away, then made a call to Laura. “Leo seemed
to be in a hurry just now. Where is he going?”

“Elyse.” When Laura heard Elyse’s voice, she spoke with some hesitation. “Mr. Alston doesn’t want me
to reveal his whereabouts. I’m sorry.”

“Even you are looking down on me now!” Elyse was so good at acting. In just a split second, her voice
turned sad and pitiful. “Laura, we’re the best of friends! How can you treat me like this?”

Laura was speechless.

“I don’t have any other intentions; it’s just too painful to endure. I just want to know when Leo would
have time to visit me. Are you not willing to help me even with a small request like this?”

Laura sighed in exasperation.

“I’m not quite sure where they’ve gone. I heard them mentioning a kindergarten when they went out.
Elyse, it’s not that I don’t want to help you; I’m truly powerless.”



“Fine, then.” Elyse hung up emotionlessly.

Laura was such a snob.

As soon as she realized that Elyse had lost, she stopped taking the latter seriously.

Still, a general direction was better than none.

There was only one kindergarten Leo would go to, which was the one Bria was at.

At the thought of Leo meeting Bria and spending time with Amelie, Elyse was so furious that she
gnashed her teeth.

She hastily got someone to investigate Bria’s school, and she soon heard about the event.

A cold chuckle escaped her lips.

How could she miss such a good opportunity?

Soon, a thought occurred to her.

Even though Bria only had a fracture in her leg, she wasn’t allowed to walk before she completely
recovered.

Hence, she went to school in her wheelchair.

The school was holding a community service event, and the children were going to the nursing home to
visit the old folks there. They would help tidy the place and put on some performances.

Because of her injured leg, Bria couldn’t join the group event. She couldn’t help with either task, so she
looked a little sullen like a withered flower.



However, the teachers felt that she was pretty and quite good with words, so she was tasked with
presenting flowers to the old folks.

With Amelie’s help, Bria happily brought back a large bouquet, her small face lighting up like the sun.

“Wait for me here, Bria. I’m going to the bathroom.” Amelie patted Bria’s little head as she spoke.

Bria nodded in understanding. “Be careful, Mommy.”

As she watched Amelie leave, the smile on her lips never once faded.

“Bria.” A girl wearing a princess crown and a pretty princess dress ran over to her, her eyes staring
right at the bouquet Bria was holding. “You have a bad leg and can’t walk, so why don’t you let me
present the flowers instead?”

“There’s no need for that,” Bria declined without hesitation.

Her thought process was simple; since the teacher had given her the task, she had to accomplish it.

The little girl was upset now. “The teacher gave you all the flowers, but I want to present them as well!”

It was only then that Bria understood what the girl meant. She nodded generously, “Since you want to
present the flowers, I’ll give you half so that we can present the flowers together.”

She thought that the girl would be happy with this suggestion, but the girl stomped her feet and cried
reluctantly, “I don’t want half of them! In my house, as long as I want it, Daddy and Mommy will give me
the whole thing!”

With that, the little girl glared intently at Bria, willing the latter to give her all the flowers.

“Come on, give it to me!” Seeing that Bria wasn’t moving, she moved to grab the flowers.



Bria was in a wheelchair, so it wasn’t convenient for her to move. The flowers were about to be
snatched when…
