Chapter 155
What she said was, “Leo, have you forgotten? I’m your Big Eyes.”
Now that Leo had stopped, Elyse’s dark eyes shone again.
She knew that the name “Big Eyes” would catch his attention-and she was right!
She approached him and pitifully blinked at him as she grabbed his sleeves with both hands. “Leony, I
knew you wouldn’t abandon me after we’ve been together for years.”
Elyse leaned her head on him and squeezed her face into his palm. “Let’s get married. You mentioned to
me five years ago that you wanted to settle down. I was too reckless back then, which was why I never
cared about your feelings. Now that I have thought things through, I want to have a family with you and
be your wife daily.”
She closed her eyes in excitement. “Leony, how many kids do you want? How about three? Let’s adopt a
few pets too. When I think about it, I feel warm and happy. If that’s the case, we have to rush. Let’s
register our marriage tomorrow and go on our honeymoon the next day.”
At that, she raised her head and held his hand, as if she was the happiest bride-to-be looking into the
future.
Such behavior from Elyse left Miss Potts, who was standing far away, on the verge of throwing up blood.
In comparison, Miss Potts felt that Amelie was much better.
Such a pity… Miss Potts shook her head as she knew that she could interrupt Leo’s affairs and turned in
the other direction.
Elyse tried her best to cheer herself, but her hand was suddenly empty.
When she fixed her gaze, she noticed that Leo had already withdrawn his hand.
He even took a step back. He wants to keep a distance.
Compared to her joy, he was calm and indifferent with little expression.
The two of them looked like they were from different worlds.
He lowered his eyes and straightened the cuffs on his sleeves that were wrinkled by Elyse. Leo didn’t
look at her until he had smoothened his cuffs, after which he spoke, “You are not Big Eyes.”
Boom!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe felt like someone had knocked her head with a hammer and she froze with wide eyes. He.. He
knows?
Hey
Elyse was suddenly at a loss because she didn’t know how to respond. She looked like someone had
grabbed onto her legs and yanked her to the floor. My legs are as soft as jelly!
Her body felt like it had been invaded by cold, dark ice with every cell being soaked in freezing pain!
It felt like she was losing her reputation again. Not a single bit left!
She heard a voice saying next to her, “Big Eyes never lies. She’s sincere and doesn’t even know me in
the first place. She can only see things that I can’t see and remain by my side forever. She’ll never let me
pity her too, which makes her so silly and adorable. Your mouth is full of lies with tricks here and there.
It’s obvious you two are different people! Elyse Clayton, how did you turn like that?
Elyse slowly raised her head as she bit her lips again and again. Her lips, which were initially trembling,
finally recovered.
Her tense chest visibly loosened as she mentioned, “So…” He didn’t investigate the past?He still doesn’t
know that I’m not Big Eyes!
Leo was lecturing her, but she couldn’t help pinching her leg to ensure it was a reality.
She jumped for joy when she felt the pain.
So what if he was disappointed? As long as she was who he thought she was, she still had hope!
The more optimistic Leo was about “Big Eyes”, the closer they would be!
At this thought, Elyse hurriedly shed a few tears of regret. “Leony, I’m sorry. What I did in the past was
because of my fear of losing you. I’ve lost my conscience then, but I assure you. I’ll definitely be your Big
Eyes. after marriage and won’t disappoint you”
She hooked Leo’s thumb and continued, “Leony, even though Big Eyes is silly, she’s still scared. Do you
have the heart to let Big Eyes live in anxiety?”
Elyse looked at him with tears swimming in her eyes as she tried to show misery and pity.
Anyone who saw it would be heartbroken.
Leo’s brows relaxed a little and his hand fell on her shoulder.
She closed her eyes in obedience as she felt a sense of relief wash over her. Luckily
Because her eyes were closed, she couldn’t see Leo’s expression.
Leo did not have a warm gaze as he withdrew his hand. “Elyse, I’ve no more love to give you. I don’t
want to hold you back from your happiness.”
So, is he breaking up with me? Elyse couldn’t believe her ears.
The name “Big Eyes” had always been a powerful name that she held over Leo, so she thought her
dreams would come true.
After he expressed his words, he lowered his head to give Elyse’s assistant a ring. “Please come and
bring Miss Clayton back.”
The minute she heard his words, her heart froze.
Even the hairs on her hair stood up in ice!
“Leony, I don’t want. I must marry you!” She lost her rationale and growled, “I don’t care whether there is
love. or not because I want you!”
He gently turned to look at her. “Not marrying you is me being responsible. I don’t want to hurt my
savior.”
“Hurt” reminded Elyse of what she did to Amelie. Yup, he hates me to the core.
Amelie had stayed by his side for four years without any reciprocation. It was akin to being imprisoned
because there was no warmth or love.
Elyse seerned to have been smashed awake and trembled with hatred!
Her Juxury MPV pulled up in the distance and alighting from the car wasn’t her assistant, but Ashton.
He wore a bright shirt that was slanted as usual which made him look unruly.
When he saw Elyse’s pitiful expression, his expression was extremely twisted.
He rushed over and pushed Leo aside. “Leo, what is wrong with you? Why did you make Elyse cry?”
Leo remained motionless and glared coldly. He chose not to look at Ashton or respond to the man’s
words.
Ashton was beyond livid, but he couldn’t do anything to Leo. Instead, he could only turn to Elyse. “Elyse,
you’re alright, right?”
Elyse bit her lip and nodded, but more tears fell from her eyes.
Expressing all of her grievances, she said, “Leony… He wants to break up with me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe minute she said that, Ashton exploded. “Leo Alston, Elyse returned from abroad because of you!
And this is how you treat her! Explain to me, what has she done wrong?! Don’t think that you can
absolve your responsibility just because her family doesn’t care about her. If you don’t give me a
satisfactory explanation today, I have a bone to pick with you!”
He raised his voice and behaved like someone unruly as he rolled up his sleeves to instigate a fight.
Leo merely looked at him. “Let’s have a talk.”
At that, he turned to leave the scene.
Ashton had raised his fist for a long time, but as it turned, Leo wanted to have a discussion.
Huh? He froze for a second.
Then, he turned to pat Elyse’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, I’ll persuade him.”
It wasn’t until Elyse was alright that Ashton went to Leo. “Leo, I want to say it first. We can talk about
anything, but if it’s about your breakup with Elyse, I would not be kind toward you.”
“What’s up with Elaine?” an expressionless Leo asked in a cold tone.
He stood with a straight posture that gave off an outstanding and eye-catching aura.
Compared to Leo’s aura, Ashton’s aura was much weaker. He slouched as he shoved his hands in his
pockets while his head was lowered and his collar was disheveled.
Elyse was standing at a distance, so she couldn’t help but compare the two. My love for Leo will only
increase whereas the same can’t be said for Ashton. I’ll only have more disgust for him.
Ashton never expected Leo to ask such a question, so he was caught off guard. His eyes were blurry as
he habitually touched the back of his head. “Why are you suddenly asking this?”
Leo didn’t respond but instead gazed at Ashton. His eyes were like the dark sky with no indication of his
thoughts.
Ashton looked at him with kindness as he felt nervous from Leo’s aura.
He suddenly lost his composure due to his nerves and yelled, “You are breaking up with Elyse because
of Elaine? I planned the incident alone. It has nothing to do with her!”
Leo stared at Ashton and gave a cold grin. He said nothing more and turned to leave for Alston
Residence.
Elyse waited wholeheartedly for Leo and Ashton to finish their conversation because she didn’t want Leo
to leave after standing there for only a few seconds. Watching them speak left her with a strange feeling.
She couldn’t help but shove her hands in the pockets of her skirt and ask, “What’s going on? Why did
Leony leave?”
