Chapter 147

Instead of answering her questions, Leo whisked out a card from his pocket. “There’s 10 million in this card, and you can spend it as you like. In addition, if you need help in the future, I’ll do my best to help you.”

After speaking, he didn’t hang around longer and walked away.

Without a word, Elyse watched as his back became smaller and smaller. Then, she stared at the bank card in her hand, trembling all over like a leaf in the wind.

Is Leo… cutting off all ties with Big Eyes with money?

Tears streamed down from her eyes again, but in the next second, she started laughing hysterically.

“Amelie Dillon, so what if you’re Big Eyes? As long as Leo wants to leave, he can abandon you all the same!”

When Leo reached home, Melissa was still there, and she immediately went to him..

“I saw the news, Leo. And it’s proven it’s not suitable for Bria to stay there. When are you taking her home?”

Frowning, he massaged the spot between his brows with his slender fingers. “Bria’s not coming back. In the future, don’t do anything to her and Amelie!”

The impatience on Melissa’s face froze at his words, and she couldn’t help but study him quietly, trying to guess if he had already found out that she was in cahoots with Elyse.

When he didn’t say anything, her heartbeat gradually returned to normal, and her face turned solemn. “Elliot has already made his statement. Why are you still letting Bria stay with Amelie? What exactly do you mean?”

“I mean it literally.” Not in the mood to be bothered with her, he added, “I’m tired. If there’s nothing else, I’m going upstairs to rest.”

Melissa wholeheartedly thought that Elyse’s smart plan would work and waited patiently for him to bring Bria home so that she could salvage a little of her lost dignity. However, now, not only did he not bring her back, he even seemed like he wasn’t going to fight for her, and this was the last straw for Melissa.

Ignoring the fact that he was tired, she raised her voice at him, saying, “Previously, you thought that I wanted to take Bria back for the sake of my face, but it has now been proven that Elliot and Amelie don’t want her. As her grandmother, how can I turn a blind eye to this?”
