A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 194

“Thank you, Leo.” He fulfilled his promise. He saved both of us!

Leo pursed his lips tightly without a word, tightening his arms around Amelie. What Amelie did not know was, the moment he realized he was going to lose her, he panicked like never before.

A couple of moments later, she freed herself from him to take a look at Bria. She was so feeble that she fell forward after barely taking two steps.

Before her knees reached the rough surface, Leo wrapped his arm around her waist to carry her. “Where are you going? I’ll bring you there.”

“N-No. It’s fine.” Amelie thrashed about and protested because it was his first time carrying her that way. She felt extremely awkward.

“You’re hurt. What if the injuries become even more severe because you force yourself? Remember, Bria needs you,” he reminded her that she could not fall right now.

In the end, she caved in and he carried her all the way to the vehicle. On the other hand, someone was watching them from afar with her fingers tightened around the steering wheel.

Elyse gritted her teeth. It was as if she could devour someone at that instant. The gown on her was beautiful and graceful as ever, but her reputation was completely ruined because of the absence of her fiancé and future mother-in-law at that engagement ceremony.

“Why isn’t she dead yet? Why?! Why!” She punched the steering wheel in a fit of pique. The loud punches and tingling sensation in her fingers couldn’t subside the ire in her.

“You’re bold to lay a finger on that child. Don’t you know what awaits you if Leo finds out about the truth?” A menacing voice mocked her.

Reflexively, she looked back at the man behind her. She did not notice his ghost-like arrival at all.

He was all wrapped up, revealing only that pair of sinister eyes. The sharp glint shining in his eyes was that of a hawk, so keen that it could give one goosebump.
