Chapter 236

“Elyse?” Amelie cried out in surprise, not understanding why Elyse was there.

As she watched on, Elyse did not let go. Instead, she eagerly gazed at Amelie’s face as if to confirm

something.

Amelie was becoming perplexed. “What are you up to?”

Their faces were so close that their eyelashes almost touched.

Elyse did not respond either.

Those who weren’t aware would think Elyse was attempting to kiss Amelie.

That action drew the attention of other parents, who began scrutinizing them.

Elyse was covered entirely, wearing shades and a mask that stood out in the crowd.

Although the parents who sent their children to this school were not the type to gossip, they speculated

on what was going on.

Amelie disliked having people close to her and she despised Elyse, so she reached out to pull Elyse’s

hand away from hers. “Others are paying attention to you. Let me go!”

With that, she walked away.

Elyse took a quick look around. Sure enough, the crowd stared at her, so she reached out to cover her

eyes and dared not pursue Amelie.

She came looking for Amelie as a result of Ellen’s words.

Ellen had implied that Amelie donated the cornea, so Elyse couldn’t sleep all night because of the

revelation.

She was terrified but intrigued. Did Amelie go to great lengths to save Leo, even if it meant risking her

eyesight?

It was simple to pretend to be Big Eyes, but no rational person would agree to donate the cornea while

they were still alive.

Unless Amelie was insane.

Elyse had spent the entire night speculating on the possibility. As such, she couldn’t take it any longer

and came to Halport.

Despite covering her eyes with her hands, she couldn’t stop staring at Amelie from afar. Amelie was

standing gracefully, her fair and calm face serene. Elyse squinted and couldn’t see anything wrong. She

hadn’t noticed anything wrong earlier either.

However, just because one couldn’t see it didn’t mean it was fine.

It was unfortunate for her that she could no longer approach Amelie.

Approaching Amelie again would not only draw attention from others but would also raise suspicions.

As a result, Elyse could only turn around and get back in the car.

She shut the door but couldn’t bring herself to touch the steering wheel.

Her heart was racing furiously.

Will I walk away empty-handed?

She was unwilling to do that.

Before proceeding to the next step, confirming that Amelie is the cornea donor is of utmost importance.

With that in mind, Elyse reached into her bag, took out her cell phone, and dialed a number. “Can you

assist me with something?”

Amelie returned to look for Elyse after picking up Bria, only to discover that the woman had vanished.

Elyse appeared out of nowhere today. She ignored the consequences of being recognized and grabbed

me recklessly to stare at me. She didn’t do it just because I look pretty, did she? There must be a reason

for her behavior. But what exactly is it?

As Amelie thought about it, her cell phone rang.

When she saw the unknown number on the screen, she didn’t hesitate and answered the call. “Hello?”

“Amelie, you didn’t forget about me, did you?” a young man asked.

Amelie was surprised. Immediately afterward, she realized the caller was Chris.

She grunted.

Chris acted aloof and behaved rudely toward others. However, he changed his mind about Amelie after

discovering she was Dash.

“Amelie, you promised to have a match with me. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time but have yet to

receive your call. Are you looking down on me and refusing to compete with me?”

“Of course not,” Amelie said while patting her head as she remembered her agreement with Chris. “I was

so preoccupied that I forgot about it.”

He calmed down after realizing she had simply forgotten. “Are you available tonight? How about we go

head-to-head then?”

Amelie lowered her head to check her schedule. “I’m available after 9.00PM.”

“Sure.” Chris snapped his fingers. “At 9.00PM, we’ll meet at the new racing track. I’ll see you there!”

“Sure.”

Amelie wanted to use this thrilling sport to clear her mind and relieve her accumulated stress.

After that, she messaged Julia, asking if she wanted to join her in the car race.

Julia called back quickly. “I have an important dinner to attend tonight. I really have to go.”

“Looks like it’s just me, then.” Amelie was unconcerned.

“Are you okay with going by yourself? Your vision is poor,” Julia stated with concern.

Amelie smiled at that. “This is not a fight to the death. I’ll do what I can.”

Her skills would be worse without Julia’s guidance, but it would not significantly impact her performance.

Furthermore, the match was meant to fulfill Chris’ dream. As a result, even if she lost, she would not be

embarrassed.

Amelie ended the call after a short chat with Julia.

Bria, who was holding Amelie’s hand, blinked a few times while her mother was on the phone.

After returning home, the girl rushed to her room and dropped her bag. “I’m going to play with my toys in

the room!”

She shut the door tightly as she said this.

Amelie didn’t want to bother her, so she went to the kitchen to assist Steven in his cooking.

Bria placed her ears on the door of the room. When Amelie’s footsteps faded, the girl took off her shoes

and climbed onto the bed.

Then, she took out her small cell phone and called Leo.

Meanwhile, Leo was handling important business in the company. He was in a large modern meeting

room with a cold air conditioner. The senior executives were all sitting up straight.

Leo, who sat in the chief seat, was also glum. He tapped the table repeatedly with his slender fingers.

“Why are there so many people here but none of you can solve the problem?”

He didn’t spit out harsh words, but his tone was cold enough to give the executives goosebumps.

Everyone knew that while Leo spoke less, he worked hard and was generous to his subordinates. If an

employee performed well, he would give them numerous bonuses.

There were also many holidays, and one could take advantage of various high-end travel opportunities

for free. Genesis employees saw Perou and global tours as commonplace.

However, if one of them made a mistake, the entire team would be fired.

The industry was well aware of Leo’s generosity, so many people were constantly attempting to join the

company. The company had no shortage of talent.

As a result, the employees were determined not to be fired.

Even if they could find another job right away, it wasn’t easy to find another company that offered the

same benefits as Genesis.

All of Genesis’ leaders and employees worked hard to stay in the company.

However, they were bound to have a bad day regardless of their efficiency.

Their current challenge was severe. As a result, the executives could not find a solution quickly and

exchanged blank looks among themselves.

Leo’s expression darkened as they couldn’t respond. “I didn’t pay you big bucks to stare at each other’s

faces! Since you are unable to respond, then…”

When they heard his words, the executives broke out in cold sweat, as if they had been dragged to the

edge of a cliff to await an order to be pushed down and smashed to pieces.

It’s all over!

Ring! Ring!

A cell phone rang at this precise moment.

The executives were shocked. They quickly wiped their sweat and checked their cell phones.

A basic rule in Genesis was turning off one’s mobile during a meeting. At this crucial moment, making

these stupid mistakes would be equivalent to a death sentence.

Everyone looked around and discovered that the sound was not from their mobiles, so they all turned to

face the main seat.

Leo was covering his cell phone, which was flickering against the glass in the main seat. He also heard

his phone ring and was surprised for a moment.

Everyone was stunned and they looked as if they had witnessed something strange.

In their minds, Leo was stricter on himself than on his employees.
