A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 49

The person had a lovely figure and a refined makeover, making her look stunning.

“Leo,” Elyse called him softly, and her eyes were filled with adoration.

Looking at her, Leo hummed in response.

“Are you leaving?’ As Elyse spoke, she stretched her neck and looked inside. “Why don’t you stay a little longer? It’s a rare moment that everyone is here.”

“No thanks. You guys have fun,” replied Leo with a lack of interest.

Leo’s words prompted a wave of disappointment within her. The poor lady could only curl her fingers up silently while her sadness consumed her.

Behind her, Ashton told Leo off in dissatisfaction. “Hey! Quit playing around, Leo. Princess Elyse rarely had some time to spare for us. Don’t ruin her mood.” In Ashton’s heart, Elyse was like a princess. Hence, he gave her such a nickname.

Hearing his words, Elyse caught up to it and commented pitifully, “That’s right. I’m exhausted from running on several notices.” As she spoke, she massaged her shoulder, looking as if she was worn out.

If it were before, Leo would have cared for her and put her as his first priority, no matter how important the matter he was dealing with was. However, at this moment, he was just looking at her with a faint expression and didn’t react to her words.

Seeing his reaction, Elyse was confused. After all, Leo had announced to everyone before that he would protect her for a lifetime. For the past few days, she thought he would contact her like he used to and care for her like he was her protector. However, there was no sight of him, and he didn’t even take the initiative to call her! Just as Elyse was relieved that he and Amelie had divorced and felt that her good days were here, Leo’s reaction made her panic.

While she was in thought, Leo didn’t respond to her words nor walk back. Instead, he swiftly walked past her from the side.

When Elyse saw that he was leaving, her heart sank, and she almost burst into tears. She quickly chased after him in the corridor and hugged him tightly from behind while pressing her head against his back. “I miss you, Leo!” she cried out.
