Chapter 87 Somewhat Ashamed, No Need to Say Anything

“Both Leony and I, especially Leony, hate that part of our past! Never bring this up again if you don’t want him to end up hating you.”

Elyse’s tone was a demanding one.

Not only did Ashton not suspect that anything was amiss, but he nodded and reassured her, “Don’t worry. I won’t mention it.”

He didn’t care much about how much Leo was reluctant to talk about it, but if Elyse didn’t like it, he would never do it!

Elyse finally let him go and turned to walk outside after seeing that trustworthy look on his face.

As she was reluctant to let Ashton see how pathetic she was, she only squeezed her eyes shut in pain after she got in her car.

Still, even that couldn’t conceal the overwhelming shock and disappointment in her eyes. If that person really is Amelie Dillon… Then, have I ever mattered? Does this mean that all of Leony’s pampering toward me was supposed to be for Amelie Dillon? And I’ve been stealing everything from her? The thing that I’ve been proud of for years was given to me by her out of charity…

Elyse wouldn’t have minded or given such a big reaction if it was some other woman, but this was Amelie they were talking about.

It was worse than a slap on her face for the woman with whom she had never seen eye-to-eye to suddenly become the person who gave her happiness.

Elyse felt like she had been stepped on and dragged by her hair along the ground!

No… It’s a hundred times more humiliating than that!

How could someone as dignified and brilliant as herself accept Amelie’s charity?!

I need to tell Leony the truth as soon as possible!

Elyse needed to make sure Amelie knew that it was her who was still Leo’s darling, even without all these.

Quickly, she took out her phone and looked for Leo’s number.

However, she abruptly cut the call right after she clicked on his contact.

She ended up covering her face in dejection.
