The fact that Leonard had collapsed so suddenly was already suspicious, and if she truly cared for him, why would she stop him from getting tested? After hearing Julian's words, Amelia hesitated for a second before forcing a smile.

"I'm not trying to stop anything; I'm just concerned. If the tests are necessary, go ahead. But let's not draw too much blood-it's hard on the body."
