A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 37

Hearing that, Laura subconsciously straightened up.

“Please, continue.”

Leo fell into thoughtful silence, his long fingers tapping against the door frame.

“Find out who it was that donated their cornea to me back then.”

“Their cornea?” Laura looked at his eyes.

She knew Leo had problems with his sight and had received a cornea transplant before. However…

“Since it has been so long, we might not be able to find anything.”

Leo pondered for a bit.

When he lost his sight back then, not just any regular cornea could be used on him due to his special physique, but he couldn’t find a suitable match either.

He had once prepared himself to be blind for life.

Later on, someone donated their cornea to him. The donor refused to receive any payments and even chose to remain anonymous.

“Just give it a try first,” he replied.

He had always been particular about these things, and he didn’t want to be indebted to someone just like that.

Laura didn’t say anything else as she responded, “Very well, sir.”

Leo turned around and left. Meanwhile, Laura stared at his silhouette, stunned. There was a tangle of emotions in the depths of her eyes.

It wasn’t until someone patted her shoulder did she finally came to.

When she turned around to look at the person who had patted her, Laura suddenly blushed fiercely as if someone had caught her red-handed.

“What are you looking at?” asked the person.

She hastily averted her gaze, not daring to meet the other’s eyes. “What can I possibly be looking at? I’m thinking of something.”

“Is that so? I thought you had feelings for Leo.”

“That’s impossible. President Alston belongs to you, so how can I possibly covet him?” Laura waved her hands continuously, looking all righteous and innocent.

The person was none other than Elyse.

She covered her mouth and giggled. “I was just kidding. Look at how terrified you are!”

Laura stole a glance at her expression.
