Chapter 58

“What? Who?” Bafflement laced Elyse’s voice, causing Leo to ponder. However, he didn’t answer her in the end. “Nothing. Rest early.”

He decided to keep it from her and personally verify it first.

“But Leo-Elyse wanted to use the chance to ask Leo to keep her company, but the man had hung up on her before she could say a thing!

Elyse bit her lips in exasperation as she listened to the busy tone coming from her phone.

Though Leo had agreed to date her, she couldn’t find the sensation she used to feel when they dated in the past anymore.

Back then, he always waited for her to hang up before he did, and he could even give her his life just by calling him ‘Leo’.

More importantly, the question he asked just now wasn’t just a random thought. What was he trying to ask?

She mulled over it but couldn’t come to a conclusion even if she racked her brains.

She found it harder and harder to understand the man now, and Elyse couldn’t help rubbing her temples.

Suddenly, she felt a weight on her back, and she was shackled.

The next second, the grip on her waist tightened, and she fell into a burning embrace.

“How boring it is to drink alone. I’ll join you,” said an amorously ambiguous voice by her ear.

The dim lighting highlighted the man’s profile, but because his back was to the light, his face was indistinguishable. That said, his voice was exceptionally alluring on this cloudy night.

He pinched super tactfully on the side of her waist, causing her to jolt involuntarily while he swooped in for a kiss. However, Elyse shoved him away at once and put a great distance between them.

“What are you doing here?” Her voice and countenance frosted over. However, the man remained in the shadows with his arms crossed.

“Don’t you feel lonely without company on such a romantic night?” he drawled, and his tone was even laced with insouciance.

“I don’t,” said Elyse as she kept her composure in check. “You’d better leave. It’ll be bad if anyone sees you with me.”

The man snorted under his breath with amusement. “You were clearly turned on just now.”

“It was just an instinctive reaction. It doesn’t mean anything.” Elyse took a sip of her liquor to conceal her awkwardness. However, the man bluntly unmasked her lie. “You’re worried Leo will know.”

At that, Elyse’s hand that was holding the glass froze.

In the past, she loathed when people used Leo against her, but this time, she nodded a moment later. “You’re right.”

The man tilted his head and chuckled in response. “Is this still the unbridled Elyse I know? I barely recognize you now.”

“Don’t aggravate me, and don’t expect to still provoke me with these words.” She looked gravely at the man. “I’m no longer the same person I was four years ago. I’m well aware of what I should and shouldn’t do.”

Four years ago, she behaved obstinate, wayward, imperious, and unconscionable because she had Leo’s love, believing he would defend and accept her forever and unconditionally no matter how outrageously she

behaved.

That was until Leo got married without warning. It was only then she realized she would even lose him,

She had suffered a lot in the four years she lost Leo, and only now did it occur to her to cherish what she had.

“You should leave.” She turned her back to the man, who responded with just another snort and left, seemingly bored.

Behind him, Elyse tightened her grip on the glass she pressed against her chest.

She finally retrieved the man she once lost four years ago, and this time, she wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

“Please, sit,” Leo said plainly before the doctor sat back down.

“This is Mr. Alston,” Laura introduced. “Please tell him everything you know.”

To that, the doctor nodded reservedly at Laura.

Leo waved his hand at that, and Laura headed out, taking the hint, leaving only the doctor and Leo inside, each taking half of the space.

As Leo sat quietly, the doctor couldn’t help sizing him up and thought though this man was really young, he had a domineering aura to him, and he couldn’t help sitting even more upright.

“Was it a young girl who removed her cornea alive in your hospital? How much do you remember about it?” Leo spoke up, his voice steady, carrying some sort of superiority.

At that, the doctor cleared his throat. “I’ve only ever experienced something like this once; naturally, I remember everything.”

Leo said nothing but used his gaze to tell the doctor to continue.

“You guys really won’t get me in trouble after I tell you about it?” The doctor leaned over as his around gaze darted

Even if the donor did it of free will, something like removing a cornea while the person was alive was against the law. Thus, his medical license would be barred if the authorities got involved, and it wasn’t easy to earn a medical license.

lifted his arms, startling the doctor. He tucked his neck reflexively while thinking the young man would strike him.

Could anyone blame him when Leo didn’t look easy to get along with?

“Don’t worry, I just want to know the truth,” Leo answered crisply. “Nothing will happen to you or the hospital.”

At that, he pulled a check out and brought it to the doctor, who was shocked when he counted the zeros written on it covertly.

Shoot!

Surely this straightforward, noble-looking man wouldn’t lie to him.
