Chapter 378 Blackmailed Into Becoming ATMs

Amelie stared at Leo's back in confusion.

She then saw him stop by the sink and fervently pump some soap into his hands.

Soon, his hands were covered in bubbles.

He began to scrub hard.

He scrubbed and washed, then washed and scrubbed.

She could not resist walking over to stand behind him.

She clearly remembered the hand he was washing to be the hand she held just now.

"Do you think I'm dirty?" she immediately asked when the thought popped into her head.

"It has nothing to do with you."

He did not look up as he coldly uttered those words.

His response rendered her speechless.

He spent a few more minutes washing his hands before forcing himself to go back to the dining table.

Their appetites were clearly affected by the incident as they barely took a few bites before declaring they were done with dinner.

He silently sat there for a few minutes before getting to his feet. "Rest early."

She watched him walk away with narrowed eyes.

Something about him felt off.

Still, she could not say exactly what was off.

After dinner, she spent a few minutes chatting with Bria and Steven over a video call.

It was midnight by the time they were done.
