Chapter 311

Being Sick in the Middle of the Night

Amelie turned on the light by the nightstand with difficulty. However, even with such a slight movement,
she was in agony. At that moment, she knew she was on her period. Technically speaking, Aunt Flo
visited earlier than usual, but it might be due to stress and other things that had occurred recently.

Since there weren’t any necessary pills in the room, she slowly slid down from the bed, trying to go to
the reception to ask for some. However, due to her weak body, she fell onto the ground. She touched
her stomach and felt it was cold and hard, seemingly as if a cold stone was inside her. She was in so
much pain that even when she breathed, it felt like her uterus was being ripped apart.

She wanted to call the receptionist, but she couldn’t get up. Every time she tried to get up, she would
fall back down. After a few attempts, she had used up all her energy.

Just as she thought she would die from pain, she vaguely saw a small red button on the floor. Then,
she pressed it without too much expectation.

Ring—

Suddenly, the sound of alarm pierced through the room.

At 3.00AM, Leo rubbed his temples and looked exhausted. After all, no one would be able to withstand
such high-intensity work. The others were also yawning, even if they tried to cover it up.

At that moment, Leo’s firm voice rang. “Keep it up.”

Although he didn’t chastise them, the crowd still felt chills run down their spine and sobered up as they
sat straight up.



Eugene gave everyone the latest crucial data, and Leo scanned it. The others were cautious about it
too. The collaboration was important, and this piece of information would be the key to success.

It was then that footstep sounded outside the office; it was a piercing noise in the silence of the night.
When Leo heard the ruckus, he frowned deeply. Immediately, Eugene went out to demand an
explanation. “What’s going on? Why are you running in the middle of the night?” He appeared to be
annoyed.

“I’m sorry, but I was just worried that something might happen to Room 1102. Someone had pressed
the emergency button…” the staff explained apologetically.

“1102?” Eugene was startled and thought, Isn’t that the room I reserved for the meeting, but Mr. Alston
gave it out without reason?

As he thought about it, a sudden strong wind blew past him. When Eugene regained his senses, he
could only see a figure running away. Feeling confused, he turned around and looked at the meeting
room. Everyone, who was busy, looked at him too. As their eyes met, Eugene looked at the empty
main seat. Huh? Where’s he?

Even when he had worked beside Leo for years, he was confused by what was happening. “What’s the
matter with Mr. Alston?” he asked.

If Eugene, Leo’s personal assistant, didn’t know what had happened, neither would the other senior
managers. At that moment, everyone was baffled.

The meeting couldn’t be resumed without Leo’s presence.

…



Meanwhile, in the room, Amelie was in excruciating pain, but suddenly, she felt someone had carried
her and patting her face, trying to wake her up. When she heard the person ask what was wrong with
her, she couldn’t say anything and just hoped to die to be free from the pain.

When she had regained consciousness, it was already the next day. She was in the hospital and was
put on a drip. The pain in her abdomen was relieved, and she was no longer in pain.

As she pressed her belly and shifted, she saw someone standing before her.

When she saw that it was Leo, she was surprised. “It’s you?”

Although she knew someone had saved her, she had always thought it was one of the hotel staff.
Never would she have expected that it would be Leo.

“Thank you, Mr. Alston,” she said politely.

Hearing her words, Leo pursed his lips and said nothing. He had a grim expression as he looked at her
questioningly.

Even if Amelie had regained consciousness, her face was still pale. Looking at her, Leo couldn’t help
but remember how she was sweating from the pain and looked as if she was dying.

“The doctor said you were in pain because of severe hypomenorrhea. What happened? You used to be
fine,” he asked.

When they were married, Melissa told Amelie to do a full body checkup because she feared that she
might have an infectious disease. At that moment, there were no records of her having such an illness.

When Amelie heard his words, she also remembered the so-called pre-marital screening.



I was such a foolish woman back then. Melissa had humiliated me with the checkup, and I had endured
it. It seems that when women fall in love, their intelligence and temper will be gone, Amelie thought.

While she was in thought, Leo was staring at her intently, looking as if he wouldn’t leave until he had an
answer from her.

“I was fine back then. However, do you still remember I almost froze to death when I was pregnant?
Ever since that incident, my body has gotten weak. Not only did I have such an illness, I almost
affected Bria.” She shrugged casually.

Immediately, Leo recalled that incident. At that moment, sadness and embarrassment filled his face. He
couldn’t help but look at her.

As Amelie spoke those words, she was smiling calmly. It was as if this had nothing to do with her. The
calmer she was, the sadder he was. In fact, he wished for her to tell him off instead of acting calm.

“I’m sorry,” he said in a low voice.

“It’s fine. The hospitals are quite advanced now. Everything will be fine as long as I take some
painkillers on time,” replied Amelie as she sat up, her eyes as calm as the ocean.

After she had finished her words, Leo didn’t say anything more as he stood silently by the corner.

Although Amelie wasn’t in pain anymore, she still felt terrible and didn’t care what Leo was thinking.
Thus, she lay back down and closed her eyes.

When she woke up the second time, Leo was still in the room. He was taking food from the container
and placing it on the table. The food smelled nice, and Amelie could feel her stomach rumbling at the
scent of it.



“Thank you, Mr. Alston,” she said politely. “I will pay you back for the hospital fee and food. I’m sure
you’re a busy man, so please don’t mind me. I can take care of myself.”

Leo didn’t say anything. He gave her the utensils and helped her adjust the height of the bed.

Since Amelie was starving, she immediately gobbled up the food. After eating, she remembered she
had promised Bria to bring her to the amusement park. Hence, she quickly called Bria and told her that
it would be delayed for an hour or two.

After she hung up the phone, she heard Leo’s question. “Are you still taking Bria to the amusement
park?”

“Yeah,” Amelie replied casually. Then, she looked at the IV bag and realized there was still some of it,
which might take up to thirty minutes. She also felt uncomfortable that Leo wasn’t leaving. At that
moment, she reached out and tried to pluck out the needle.

Suddenly, Leo uttered, “Take it slow. I’ll take her to the amusement park.” Then, he turned around and
cleaned the table.

Looking at him, Amelie felt he looked handsome, even if he was cleaning the table. As someone as
good-looking as him, no matter what he did, he looked different from ordinary people.

Thinking about it, she slowly put down her hand and was happy that he was leaving.

Leo was quick and cleaned the table within two minutes. When he walked out of the washroom, he
stood before her and pursed his lips. Just as Amelie thought he was going to say something, he left
without saying a word.

…



At night, Prix Bar was packed with people seeking an enticing evening. In one of the booths, a man’s
shadow reflected on the wall. The shadow was repeating two movements—lowering its head and titling
it up—almost like a mime performance. One could only tell that the owner of the shadow was drinking
by looking at the shape of the glass.

It felt quite lonely and sad to see the shadow drinking alone.
