When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 56 How Crazy Could She Get for Him

Julia’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Amelie falling silent, for it meant the answer was evidently close.

“So, you… you really donated your cornea?” Her voice became shaky, and her eyes were filled with incredulity and pooling tears.

The next second, she shoved Amelie and barked, “Are you mad?! How can you go this far?!”

“Julia…” Amelie grabbed her best friend’s hand.

“It was around that time, wasn’t it?” Julia flung Amelie’s hand away while glaring at the young woman. “You made me cover for you all of a sudden, wanting me to tell your dad you were staying over at mine while you disappeared to God-knew-where for two months. You actually… actually went to remove your cornea, right?”

Julia couldn’t utter another word anymore.

She had only ever heard of doctors removing the cornea of the dead. For a living, breathing human to have their cornea removed just like that… She dared not even imagine what it was like.

“You gave your cornea to Alston, didn’t you?” Julia’s voice sounded evidently shaky by the time she spoke, but the next second, she roared again, “How can you do something so absurd for that jack*ss?! You’re a madwoman, Amelie Dillon!”

Julia kept shoving Amelie with red-rimmed eyes, lashing out ceaselessly. However, what she wanted more was to turn back time and stop her best friend from doing something so horrifying.

“Julia!” Samuel ran up to Julia and held her back after seeing how worked up she had gotten. However, Julia shook him off and looked teary-eyed at Amelie. “Amelie Dillon, you *sshole! How can you make me an accomplice for what you did yourself?!”

Amelie knew what she did was wrong, so she silently lowered her head, letting Julia yell at her as she pleased. But it wasn’t why Julia was mad at her; she was mad at the fact that her best friend had behaved so insanely. Her heart ached for Amelie.

“I knew I should’ve been nosy! I knew I should’ve asked!” Julia bawled. “How could I have believed you just like that when you said you were going to look after Alston?! I’m such an idiot!”

“Alright, that’s enough tears. There are neighbors around. If they hear this and tell Mr. Dillon about it…” Samuel cooed as he held Julia, who finally stopped at that.

Meanwhile, Amelie opened the door with a spare key and let the couple in.
