Chapter 174

The moment Leo called her Big Eyes, Amelie’s mind went blank.

After their divorce, she kept that identity hidden. She never imagined that she would hear him call her by that name again.

“Did you remember me?

Before she could finish her sentence, Amelie felt her body being squeezed.

He hugged her.

Following that, a heavy scent of alcohol wafted into her nostrils.

“Did you drink?” She was still in shock after falling into his embrace.

Without speaking, Leo pressed his head into her nape.

His breath was a little urgent as he felt an inexplicable surge of depression.

Amelie dared not move an inch as she silently felt the rhythm of his breath.

Somehow, she started feeling uncomfortable.

Gradually, her anger toward him for forgetting her was beginning to fade.

Leo hugged her tight.

“I’m sorry. I should’ve come and looked for you sooner. It’s all my fault.” His voice was subdued but also sounded heartbroken.

Amelie shuddered and froze at the spot.

What is he saying?

“Why didn’t you come and look for me?” She almost blurted the question as she was eager to know the answer.

Her lashes shuddered uncontrollably after she asked the question. It was a sign of grievance.

“It’s my fault,” Leo muttered.

“Your fault? What did you do wrong?” Amelie asked softly.
