When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 75

The instant the Bentley car door opened, a pair of long legs appeared from the vehicle as the designer leather shoes reflected the lights. Following that, a face with features that were as perfect as a piece of art was revealed. His thin lips and aquiline nose made him look one of a kind. His gaze was as calm as a still lake.

“Leo?” Amelie muttered under her breath as her chest tightened. Did Toby tell him to come over and pick me up? Has he found out that I’m Foxy?

While she was in her thoughts, Leo reached her and looked down at her. Then, with his hands in his pockets, he uttered impassively, “I was the one who dumped you in the snow. Just tell me how I can make it up to you. Certainly, money is the only thing I can give you.” Then, he fished out a check. “Just fill in any amount you

want.”

Amelie looked at the check that was flapping in the air. The piece of white paper was glaring into her eyes. “What do you mean?” she questioned.

Leo pressed his lips into a line without responding to her.

On the other hand, Amelie had figured it out. “Has Elyse told you something?”

However, Leo remained silent.

“I’ve come clean with Leo about lying to him in the past.” Elyse got out from the other side of the Bentley. “I shouldn’t have done it on a whim, and I’ve apologized to him. Leo just wants to make it up to you. Please accept the money, Miss Dillon.”

Although she appeared sincere, her gaze was provocative. When the incident was exposed by Amelie the day before, she pondered for a long time and eventually made up her mind. Rather than letting Amelie lead her by the nose, she decided to come clean to Leo.

Fortunately, the risk was worth it. Even though Leo was displeased, he decided to forgive her. He even offered to help her settle this issue.

A victorious smile played on Elyse’s lips while Amelie clenched her fists. There’s no limit to the extent of him conniving at Elyse’s actions, huh? Did she save the world in her previous life or something?
