Chapter 136

“What?” Amelie turned around and looked at Toby.

“You have a problem with your eye because you went through a cornea transplant to donate your cornea to Leo. Am I right?” Toby suddenly increased his volume, and there was a tone of certainty in his voice.

Although Amelie’s cornea transplant was just his suspicion and he didn’t have any proof, he just believed that she had donated her cornea. The moment he realized that, his heart wrenched sharply, and he felt a part of him missing: even breathing was difficult for him.

Meanwhile, his eyes were fixed on her face—her left eye, in particular.

Toby was usually gentle and had never shown his assertive side, so it startled Amelie. At this moment, her mind was in chaos, but she chuckled after a few seconds. “You do know how to make a joke, Mr. Walsh. If I had donated my cornea to Leo, I would’ve told him ages ago. That way, he wouldn’t have snubbed me for the whole four years.” With her head tilted, there was a mere smile on her face, and her eyes looked like they were

staring into space.

Judging from her expression, he was suddenly doubting what he was so sure about a few minutes ago.

“You should stop imagining things. Mr. Walsh.” Amelie tried her best to hide her feelings as she acted indifferently.

Although she didn’t regret her foolish decision at that time, she wasn’t willing to open up about this topic anymore. Everything related to Leo had already been set aside.

When Toby noticed that she was talking about it so casually, the pain in his heart was relieved, and his breathing went back to normal.

He’d rather she hurt her eye from a fall than believe she’d done something so foolish for Leo. It would be too

tragic for her if that were truly the case.

“Okay.” As he smiled, his exotic and gentle image was restored.
