Chapter 384 Leo Falls Ill

"You haven't done anything bad, have you?" Melissa still knew him somewhat despite his cold demeanor, and he wouldn't just attack someone for no reason.

"I didn't do anything bad." Chandler hastily shook his head as if he had been caught doing something wrong. "But Leo thinks I did."

"What do you mean by that?" Her patience was wearing thin, and she was getting annoyed.

"Please stop asking me, Mrs. Alston." Chandler looked like he couldn't say anything. "I-I'm in pain. I need to rest!"

With that, he hurriedly ran upstairs.

Chandler's reluctance to speak was like a hook in Melissa's heart, making her uneasy.

However, she always had a sense of superiority and cared about her reputation, so she would not lower herself to ask more questions.

To Melissa, that was a very embarrassing thing to do. As these conflicting thoughts collided within her, she couldn't help pacing back and forth in the room.

Just as she was walking, she suddenly bumped into someone.

"Ouch!"

The person whom she collided with was Jodie.

Jodie was pushed back several steps, and her foot was twisted painfully.

"Mom, what are you doing?!" Jodie glared. Initially, she wanted to hit the person but quickly retracted her hand upon seeing it was Melissa. She rubbed her sore ankle and complained, "Can't you see me? Why did you bump into me like that?"

Melissa slowly regained her senses and saw that it was her daughter. She asked, "Are you okay?"

"How can I be okay? I was almost knocked over." Jodie rubbed her ankle, then her shoulder where she was hit. "Mom, are you dating someone? You seem absent-minded."

"What are you talking about?!" A hint of awkwardness appeared on Melissa's face. "I'm just worried about your brother!"
