A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 163

“However, I have to confirm whether you are Big Eyes.”

At that moment, Elyse felt something snap in her. She was so horrified that she felt that the world was spinning! She tried to think hard about when she had exposed herself, but no thoughts came to mind. Then, she sneaked a glance at Leo.

Alas, Leo was just standing there calmly with an expressionless face. It was as if he was asking her about the

weather!

What does he know? The calmer Leo was, the more horrified Elyse became!

“Leony…” She tried hard to suppress the terror within her and acted baffled while looking at him with wide eyes. “Why are you bringing this up again? Didn’t we meet Ms. Albert last time?”

Leo merely stayed silent and stared at her.

Initially, he had trusted Ms. Albert’s explanation. However, as he recalled her words after the fact, he felt that there were many loopholes.

At this moment, Elyse was so overwhelmed with guilt that she felt her head throbbing. It felt like she was being pushed to the edge and was going to fall to her death! As she thought about it, chills ran down her spine! She wanted to maintain the peace as it was now.

Suddenly, Elyse went mad and said, “This is just an excuse, isn’t it? If you don’t want to take responsibility for me and your words, you could have just said so! You are the worst, Leony!” she exclaimed miserably while tears rolled down her cheeks, making her look pitiful.

Leo would have gone soft-hearted at this point if it was the past. But this time, he only kept quiet with a calm expression and didn’t move an inch. It was clear that he was persistent in finding out her identity.

Elyse felt terrified in the face of his stubbornness. On the other hand, Leo didn’t pressure her and just opened the door as he stood there, waiting for her in silence. It was as if he would keep waiting until she was willing to

go with him.
