A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 89 The Person Was Looked Down On, But It Was Her Lifesaver

“Have you forgotten? I was the one who was by your side, accompanying you through your toughest times in Quinn Town! It was I who advised you to cooperate with the doctor, encouraged you to treat your eyes, and dragged you out of the bog! You would still be the blind man the Alstons abandoned there if it weren’t for me! Is a mere pair of corneas going to cancel out all our years of being together? You left me no choice but to pretend to be the woman who donated her corneas to win over your heart. I even became someone that I look down on. Is this still not enough?! Are you only going to be satisfied the day I die?!”

Elyse pitifully covered her face after yelling, but her tears still seeped through between her fingers.

She wasn’t sad, per se. Truth was, she was embarrassed.

She, Elyse Clayton, had finally fallen to the point where she didn’t hesitate to take the credit of her biggest enemy to keep a man.

Leo looked at her quietly with his head lowered.

Even though he stayed silent, the coldness in his eyes disappeared a little.

Elyse’s words had stabbed him right in the chest.

Indeed, she had done a lot of things he thought were unacceptable.

That didn’t change the fact that she was also the person who was by his side when he struggled the most in life.

The two promised each other right from the start that they would be together for the rest of their lives, and they also agreed that they would keep it in and never mention this. But I pushed her so hard she disregarded our promise…

As his guilt rose, he slowly reached out to touch the top of her head before pulling her into his arms. “I’m sorry,” he muttered.

…

Amelie, who missed Bria and Steven, quickly departed to Quinn Town.

Her phone’s notification went off when she was driving her car.

She took the chance when she went to refuel the vehicle to take a glance at her phone, only to see that it was a notification that she had received a fund transfer.

A long string of zeros had been deposited into her account out of nowhere.

The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and she called Toby. “Didn’t we agree that the incident with Mr. Steward is my paying back your kindness, Mr. Walsh? Why did you send such a big amount of money?”

“Leony was the one who insisted I do this.” Toby’s voice that rang out from the phone sounded helpless. “You know how he is. He will surely get angry at me if I don’t do it well. He might even end the project.”
