When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

Chapter 84 Exposed

“My earring?!” Elyse felt her ear at once, and sure enough, she was an earring less.

“You dropped it at the golf course’s cafe. When the manager called me to pick it up, I overheard someone talking about you and the derogatory words you said to Owen about Amelie,” Leo revealed.

His every word revealed the filthy heart hidden beneath Elyse’s flesh bit by bit.

Elyse instantly clutched her earring while biting down the corner of her lips in utter shame. The blood drained speedily from her face, leaving it ghastly pale.

She hadn’t deliberately watched out for people when she was talking to Owen, for she knew the staff would never have anything to do with Leo. However, she forgot there was one thing in this world called a coincidence.

Her earring had coincidentally dropped; Leo coincidentally went back to the place; the staff members were coincidentally talking about her…

How did it lead up to this?!

At the time, when she realized Owen wasn’t as aloof as she imagined, she then pretentiously brought up Amelie after talking about the collaboration.

Though her words were euphemistic, they implied multitudes.

For the longest time, Elyse portrayed her fair maiden image flawlessly, but it was now entirely ruined because of this insignificant mistake.

“I only said all that because I thought… I thought Amelie wanted to foil your dealing. I feared Mr. Steward would believe her, so I hinted at him. I… I did it all for you and the company’s sake!” she hurriedly explained as she looked at Leo with teary eyes. “You have to trust me.”

Despite Leo’s silence, his eyes were sub-zero.

Honestly, some things didn’t need to be said, but those decent would never speak ill of others to someone else, especially when that person was a big shot like Owen.

Until not long ago, he was still baffled by Owen’s advice, telling him he could do better than settle for someone like Elyse. But after overhearing the gossip, it all suddenly became clear to him.
