When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

Chapter 311

Chapter 311 Being Sick in the Middle of the Night

Amelie turned on the light by the nightstand with difficulty. However, even with such a slight movement, she was in agony. At that moment, she knew she was on her period. Technically speaking, Aunt Flo visited earlier than usual, but it might be due to stress and other things that had occurred recently.

Since there weren't any necessary pills in the room, she slowly slid down from the bed, trying to go to the reception to ask for some. However, due to her weak body, she fell onto the ground. She touched her stomach and felt it was cold and hard, seemingly as if a cold stone was inside her. She was in so much pain that even when she breathed, it felt like her uterus was being ripped apart.

She wanted to call the receptionist, but she couldn't get up. Every time she tried to get up, she would fall back down. After a few attempts, she had used up all her energy.

Just as she thought she would die from pain, she vaguely saw a small red button on the floor. Then, she pressed it without too much expectation.

Ring—

Suddenly, the sound of alarm pierced through the room.

At 3.00AM, Leo rubbed his temples and looked exhausted. After all, no one would be able to withstand such high-intensity work. The others were also yawning, even if they tried to cover it up.

At that moment, Leo's firm voice rang. "Keep it up."

Although he didn't chastise them, the crowd still felt chills run down their spine and sobered up as they sat straight up.

Eugene gave everyone the latest crucial data, and Leo scanned it. The others were cautious about it too. The collaboration was important, and this piece of information would be the key to success.

It was then that footstep sounded outside the office; it was a piercing noise in the silence of the night. When Leo heard the ruckus, he frowned deeply. Immediately, Eugene went out to demand an explanation. "What's going on? Why are you running in the middle of the night?" He appeared to be annoyed.

"I'm sorry, but I was just worried that something might happen to Room 1102. Someone had pressed the emergency button…" the staff explained apologetically.

"1102?" Eugene was startled and thought, Isn't that the room I reserved for the meeting, but Mr. Alston gave it out without reason?

As he thought about it, a sudden strong wind blew past him. When Eugene regained his senses, he could only see a figure running away. Feeling confused, he turned around and looked at the meeting room. Everyone, who was busy, looked at him too. As their eyes met, Eugene looked at the empty main seat. Huh? Where's he?

Even when he had worked beside Leo for years, he was confused by what was happening. "What's the matter with Mr. Alston?" he asked.

If Eugene, Leo's personal assistant, didn't know what had happened, neither would the other senior managers. At that moment, everyone was baffled.

The meeting couldn't be resumed without Leo's presence.

…

Meanwhile, in the room, Amelie was in excruciating pain, but suddenly, she felt someone had carried her and patting her face, trying to wake her up. When she heard the person ask what was wrong with her, she couldn't say anything and just hoped to die to be free from the pain.

When she had regained consciousness, it was already the next day. She was in the hospital and was put on a drip. The pain in her abdomen was relieved, and she was no longer in pain.

As she pressed her belly and shifted, she saw someone standing before her.

When she saw that it was Leo, she was surprised. "It's you?"

Although she knew someone had saved her, she had always thought it was one of the hotel staff. Never would she have expected that it would be Leo.

"Thank you, Mr. Alston," she said politely.

Hearing her words, Leo pursed his lips and said nothing. He had a grim expression as he looked at her questioningly.

Even if Amelie had regained consciousness, her face was still pale. Looking at her, Leo couldn't help but remember how she was sweating from the pain and looked as if she was dying.

"The doctor said you were in pain because of severe hypomenorrhea. What happened? You used to be fine," he asked.

When they were married, Melissa told Amelie to do a full body checkup because she feared that she might have an infectious disease. At that moment, there were no records of her having such an illness.

When Amelie heard his words, she also remembered the so-called pre-marital screening.

I was such a foolish woman back then. Melissa had humiliated me with the checkup, and I had endured it. It seems that when women fall in love, their intelligence and temper will be gone, Amelie thought.

While she was in thought, Leo was staring at her intently, looking as if he wouldn't leave until he had an answer from her.

"I was fine back then. However, do you still remember I almost froze to death when I was pregnant? Ever since that incident, my body has gotten weak. Not only did I have such an illness, I almost affected Bria." She shrugged casually.

Immediately, Leo recalled that incident. At that moment, sadness and embarrassment filled his face. He couldn't help but look at her.

As Amelie spoke those words, she was smiling calmly. It was as if this had nothing to do with her. The calmer she was, the sadder he was. In fact, he wished for her to tell him off instead of acting calm.

"I'm sorry," he said in a low voice.

"It's fine. The hospitals are quite advanced now. Everything will be fine as long as I take some painkillers on time," replied Amelie as she sat up, her eyes as calm as the ocean.
