Chapter 110 Keeping Her Around

Leo ran back and flung the door open. The first thing he saw was Elyse clutching her hand in pain, and

shards of glass were scattered all over the ground.

Elyse sniffled, tears glistening in her eyes. “I was going to get a glass of water, and then the glass

exploded in my face.”

The ground was covered in steaming water. The glass must have exploded in her hand.

She put her hand down, revealing her scalding arm.

He quickly approached her and placed her hand under the faucet. Then he turned it on and cleaned

her wound with cold water. At the same time, he called the doctor.

It didn’t take long for the doctor to arrive. He cleaned her wound and dabbed some salve on it. Elyse

put on a look of agony throughout the whole ordeal. She leaned closer to Leo, biting her lip tightly. And

tears welled in her eyes.

“It’s not a serious burn. And I got here in time. Should heal in three days.” The doctor bandaged the

wound and adjusted his mask. Then, he left.

Leo created some distance between him and Elyse. “You heard him. It’s not serious.” He picked the

blanket up and covered it over her.

Elyse stared at him intently, a frown creasing her forehead like she was in great pain. “But my hand

hurts a lot. Feels like a ton of ants are biting away at it. Can you stay for the night? Please?”

He pursed his lips and stared at her bandaged hand. Well, she did stay by my side when I was blind.

And he nodded. “Very well.”

A weak smile curled Elyse’s lips, and she heaved a sigh of relief in silence.

“I’ll wash my hands.” Leo headed to the bathroom.

She saw him off. Once he was inside the bathroom, she looked at his phone. He was close enough to

inadvertently unlock his phone’s face recognition. There was something she needed to confirm. Even

though she was in the room, she kept an eye on Leo all the time, and she clearly heard him asking

Toby about the exact time Amelie left.

Ignoring her pain, she quickly scrolled through his phone and found the text he had sent Amelie. He…

He wants her to stay?

Something in her mind snapped, and a look of anxiety welled in her eyes. She scrolled his phone at

random until it pulled on her wound. The pain snapped her out of her stupor, and she plopped back

down, her hands pressing down on her blanket. She rested her back against the back of her bed, then

she closed her eyes.

He must have gone to her. Tried to make her stay. Good thing I convinced him to stay with me. The

burn was torturing her, but its pain was nothing compared to the danger Amelie was posing to her

relationship with Leo.

At 10.00AM, Elyse came out with the help of Leo, still looking pale and frail. It was a fake look, of

course. All so people would take pity on her. “Sorry I’m holding you back. I have a bit of hemophobia,

and I don’t really like wounds. I would’ve gotten the dressing changed myself, but…” She put on a look

of apology.

“It’s alright.” Leo shook his head.

He looked at the time, and he frowned.

She noticed that, and she cocked her eyebrow in silence. Heck, she wasn’t afraid of wounds or blood.

That was all a lie so he would stay with her. Amelie’s gone by now. They’ll never meet again. Delighted

by that thought, she smiled at Leo. “I’m getting a bit hungry, Leo. Why don’t we get something to eat?”

Leo was about to say something, but then a gurney darted out from the corner, and a few medical staff

members rushed down the corridor. They almost crashed into Leo and Elyse on their way.

Leo pulled Elyse back, and then someone bumped into his shoulder. That person turned around in

panic. It was none other than Amelie, but she didn’t recognize Leo. She only turned by reflex. And then

she was already chasing after the gurney. “Bria,” she muttered.

“Bria?” Leo heard her mutter, and he looked at the gurney. It was getting further away, but he could see

a petite silhouette lying on it. It’s a child. Bria. His heart sank, and he said, “Go back to your room.” And

he went after Amelie. It didn’t take long for him to catch up, but when he did, the gurney was nowhere

to be found.

Amelie was as pale as the walls of the hospital, rivulets of sweat pouring down her cheeks. Her back

was already drenched with sweat.

“What happened?” Leo approached her.

Amelie bit down on her lip hard, shivering in fear.

He held her shoulder, trying his best to steady her. “Is it Bria? Is she down with something?”

Oh. Oh, it’s him. She nodded. “Yeah. Stomach ache. The doctor’s checking up on her.”

They had breakfast earlier and were about to return to Quinn Town. It was then, Bria cried out in pain

and keeled over. Amelie pushed her unkempt hair away, trying to calm her nerves. But she could still

remember how much in pain Bria was. How Bria curled up in her arms, crying out in pain. She could

still remember how pale she looked. And her hands trembled. She’ll be fine, right? Amelie closed her

eyes, trying to shove her fear away, but then she was reminded of the time Bria was born.

And the memory struck fear into her heart. What if history repeated itself?

All her strength left her. Even with Leo holding her still, her legs buckled, and she slowly slid to the

ground. Leo had to hold her by her lower back and pull her into his embrace, holding her up with his

whole body.

“She cried out in pain all of a sudden. What if… What if it’s something terminal? If something happens

to her, what should I do?” Amelie didn’t have the strength to even hold her head high. She rested her

head on his shoulder and started talking gibberish. And then tears streamed down her cheeks.

Leo looked at her, and he felt for her predicament. It pained him to see her crying like a helpless little

girl. And he patted her back. “She’ll be fine. She’ll be fine.”

Comforted, Amelie nodded and buried her head deep in Leo’s shoulder. She needed a shoulder to cry

on. To calm her fear of losing her daughter. No more and no less. Alas, someone didn’t think so.

Elyse stood in the distance and saw the whole thing. Her face started to contort in rage and envy, and

she gnashed her teeth in fury. “Damn you, Amelie. Damn you!” You were supposed to be gone! All her

good mood was gone, replaced by fury, fear, hatred, and sorrow. She had conflicting emotions, but one

thing was for sure—she wanted to tear Amelie apart. “She’s doing that on purpose!” growled Elyse. Her

nails were already digging into her wounded hand, and yet the pain didn’t even register in her head.

Then, the doctor came out of the emergency room. Leo and Amelie quickly approached him.

“Doctor.”

“Doctor.”

“How is she looking?”
