Chapter 121

Amelie walked over to her security intercom. The sight of the man displayed on the screen shocked her.

Leo? Why is he here? What is he doing here so late at night?

On the screen, he was standing straight and looking into the camera with his dark eyes.

Even with a camera and screen between them, she could still feel the sharp look in his eyes against her skin.

The more confused she was about his intentions, the less she wanted to open her door.

However, if she did not answer the door, her sleeping father would be wakened up.

Steven had strong objections about Leo, and she did not want any fights to break out.

After hesitating for a while, she swiftly pulled the door open and stepped out, closing the door behind her.

“Do you need something, Mr. Alston? It is quite late.” Her wariness was visible on her pretty face.

To him, her wariness was exceptionally striking.

However, his mind was preoccupied with something else, so he did not have the heart to think about that.

His focus was primarily focused on her eyes. “Why were you at the eye specialist center that time?”

Amelie was startled by his question.

She thought he was here because of Bria or something else. In the end, that was all he wanted to know.

“I was at the eye specialist center naturally because I wanted to have my eyes checked.” A moment later, she calmly asked, “What? Can I not go to that center?”

“What happened to your eyes?” he shot back. His eyes were still trained on her.

Before their divorce, Amelie would fantasize that he wanted to thank her because she donated corneal tissue to fix his blinded left eye.

Now, she had witnessed too many cold and callous moments from him, too much proof of how little he cared for her. Thus, she would not fantasize about his love anymore.

She tilted her head. “That’s my business. I don’t need to report to you about that, do I? Did you come all the way here just to ask about my eyes? Come on, what else is there?”
