Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271 Grief 

Amelia took several steps closer to me and stopped in her tracks suddenly. There was some semblance of fear in her eyes. Was she afraid that I might’ve struck her out of anger and killed both her and her baby? 

At the next moment, Amelia looked at me cockily. “I know what you’re thinking, Eva. You just want to keep your significance in Harmon Group. I’m focusing on my pregnancy now. A year later, I will…” 

“Leave now. Don’t make me do something to you.” I shoved Amelia out of the office aggressively, and she covered her belly in terror. 

Amelia was more afraid than I was right now. The baby was her good luck charm for the rest of her life. I had no idea if her baby was going to be healthy when it was born. However, Amelia might just become Mrs. Harmon within the next ten months, at least. 

Just as we were pushing each other, my phone rang. Crystal immediately gave me my phone. Where is the Harmon residence?” She instinctively grumbled. 

Amelia’s face immediately grew gloomy. I didn’t pay her any attention and directly answered the phone. “Hi, Mr. Harmon Senior. What do you need from me?” 

“Leonard has woken up.” Mr. Harmon Senior spoke softly, but his voice was clearly audible in the office, where there were only four people. 

‘Amelia spoke in an ear–piercing voice all of a sudden, “Has Leo awakened? He’s awake?” She cast a glance at me before sprinting toward the elevator. 

I knew that Amelia was even more afraid now. What if Leonard had completely sobered up? Judging by his character, she might just die for real this time. 

Mr. Harmon Senior paused briefly before he said, “Did Amelia go to look for you?” 

“I’m at Harmon Group now. She just got into the elevator.” I reported Amelia’s whereabouts indifferently. It’d make my life much easier if Mr Harmon Senior could send someone to control her. 

“Alright. I’ll assign someone to keep an eye on Amelia. You should come over to the hospital, Eva. Now.” Mr. Harmon Senior spoke in a commanding tone as usual, but I didn’t let it get to 

1. me. 

It was a good thing that Leonard came to. We wouldn’t be able to proceed with the divorce If he was in a comatose state the whole time. 

Amelia and I almost stepped foot into the hospital one after another. She straightaway leaned on Leonard’s bed and said, “You’re finally awake, Leo. You come round because you know we’re expecting, don’t you? 

“The baby and I are worried sick about you, Leo. You might not know it, but you scared the life out of me.” 

I stood by the door and looked at Leonard, who was wearing a cold expression. He seemed to be very irritated as he shoved Amella away. 

“Mind how you carry yourself, Amelia.” 

This was probably the first time Leonard had treated Amelia this coldly ever since Amelia returned to the country. She was obviously dumbfounded. Then, she spoke in a coquettish tone, “It’s me, Leo. I’m Amy. Have you forgotten who I am?” 

Leonard probably sensed my gaze and raised his head. When he saw me, he paused briefly before his eyes reddened immediately. “Why are you standing there, Eva?” 

I remained where I stood and looked at him rather coldly. He had regained his memories, and he had seemingly sobered up. However, I wasn’t the least bit happy about it. 

Amelia was still rambling on. Eventually, Leonard barked an order impatiently and had his men take her away. However, she clung to him and didn’t plan to leave at all. On top of that, she was pregnant. So, no one actually dared to touch her. 

“Do 

you really not remember it, Leo? I’m the one who stayed by your side the whole time. We’re having a baby. Are you really going to treat me and our baby this way?” 

Leonard heard Amelia talking about a baby and instinctively looked at her. Then, he shook his head at once. “Don’t play games with me, Amelia! I could never have made a baby with you. I’m going to call the police if you keep this up. Think about what you did, Amelia!” 

Leonard’s tone was firm and unwavering. He said the same thing to me back then, I noticed the grief in Amelia’s eyes, and I had to turn around. I couldn’t bring myself to look at it.
