Chapter 100 She Had Become A Monster

“Are you sure?” Elyse asked with clenched fists after a moment of silence.

Ashton nodded. “I took that child’s hair with my own hands, and it was someone I’m familiar with who carried out the test. It can’t be forged. That child is Leo’s.”

He then looked at Elyse worriedly. “What should we do about this matter?”

Elyse remained quiet.

Even though she guessed it right, the truth was still hard to accept.

Ashton failed to notice that her fingers were trembling, and her face had turned as pale as paper.

The fact that the child belonged to Leo wasn’t what she was afraid of, but that Amelie turned out to be Big Eyes!

If word got out, Elyse couldn’t imagine the consequences. Confusion clouded her mind.

“What exactly is this woman up to?” Ashton growled irritably.

He naively thought Amelie had hidden the child’s identity not because she wanted to draw a line with Leo, but because she was planning to launch a big move when the time came.

“Elyse!” He suddenly made up his mind and held Elyse’s arm tightly before turning her around to face him. “Listen to me. Never tell Leo about this! I’ll figure out a way so that Amelie can’t take advantage of this situation and cause a fuss!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open.

A tall figure entered the ward.

Elyse and Ashton turned their heads in unison, and when they saw who it was that came in, their expressions changed at the same time.

Elyse pushed Ashton away in embarrassment, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and walked over to Leo quickly. “Leo, are you here to see me?”

Her voice was as gentle as that of a well-behaved and docile cat.

Ashton felt extremely uncomfortable when he noticed how smitten Elyse was over Leo. He gripped his fists silently and announced his leave. “Go on and do your thing, lovebirds. I’m leaving.”

With that, he made a beeline for the door.

After seeing Ashton leave, Elyse took a step closer to Leo. “I waited for you the whole day, Leo. Why did you only come now?”

She then tried to lean her head on his shoulder.
