Chapter 280 He’s Not a Trophy for Exchange

The view outside was a large, flat, green grass field that extended to a mountain range.

The mountains weren’t tall, but to those used to city life, this was still a breath of fresh air.

After exiting the bus and seeing the view, Amelie took a deep breath. “Fresh air!”

“Come on, let’s take a look over there,” suggested Fiona while pulling Amelie after hopping out of the vehicle.

The others, too, ignored the following cameramen and their cameras and ran toward the center of the field.

Just like that, the area where the buses parked fell silent instantly.

Meanwhile, Leo held his phone impassively as he went to a secluded area. “That girl back then, can you still find her?”

“It happened too long ago, and a lot of evidence has been deliberately wiped out. It isn’t an easy investigation. However, I did talk to the attending physician who treated your eyes. He said he doesn’t quite remember what she looked like anymore, and what he said was practically what he told you the last time—the girl’s father was a shoemaker.”

A shoemaker? Ellen’s father, Michael, is a shoemaker.

It was indeed useless information.

He hung up the phone dryly and looked up to capture Amelie at first glance.

The young woman was snapping pictures of the surrounding scenery.

Though he couldn’t make out her expression hidden beneath the mask, something hit Leo with a thump, and he clenched the hand holding his phone.

If his memory served him right, Amelie’s father was also a shoemaker.

With that, he strode toward Amelie, who was oblivious to Leo’s actions. She remained immersed in the beauty of the scenery.

Bria will love this place, she mused while taking more photos when Leo suddenly entered the shot.

He had a dashing face, and his chiseled outlines were impeccably good-looking. He was looking right into the camera as though he wanted to creep into her heart through it.

A thick, enigmatic emotion surged beneath his eyes, and it had already reached the ignition point. One flick of a match, and it would explode.

Amelie’s heart skipped a beat. She nearly dropped her phone, for it was her first time seeing Leo like this. What… What is up with him?
