Chapter 297 End of a Dream

Michael sighed. He was already out of options.

“What about the corneal donation?” Elyse suggested. “How did he find out about that case? A lot of people saw that in Quill Town’s hospital. It shouldn’t have been easy to find anything.”

Not even they could figure out how Ellen got her hands on the documents.

“Leo’s powerful. He can find out anything he wants.” Michael was really scared now. He no longer wanted to go against Leo. “We should just turn ourselves in. If he finds out what we’re up to, he’s going to kill us.” That was the best deal on the table at that moment.

“Turn ourselves in? If we do that, we’re going to jail. We’ll lose everything. After we’re released, you’ll be too old to work, and I don’t have any money-making skills. How are we supposed to live, then?”

Michael shivered. That’s not a pretty picture to imagine.

“At this point, we should just go all in. Perhaps we’ll have a chance at survival.”

Michael might be scared of Leo, but Elyse had a point as well.

Now she looked like a courier rather than a celebrity. Even though she was no longer an A-lister, her past with Leo made her the topic of many news outlets’ articles. Moreover, after that contract scandal, she didn’t want anyone to recognize her.

She yanked Ellen out of the car, her eyes devoid of any emotion. She didn’t bother to be gentle at all, but when she noticed the crowd staring at her, Elyse straightened Ellen’s clothes out as if she
