When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 166

Leo’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed. Without asking anything, he just looked at Melissa.

Melissa knew her son had a cool personality, so she didn’t expect him to start talking about it himself. In that case, she would bring it up herself. “I just found out that you suddenly transferred 50 million to a private account. Who did you give the 50 million to, and why?”

“These 50 million are my personal savings,” he answered without elaborating. With this one sentence, he had made it clear to her that this was his private matter.

Of course, she could hear what he actually meant. Instantly, rage overtook her, making her press her nails into her palms, and she struggled to maintain her expression. If it weren’t for her being aware of his current influence, she would have blown up long ago.

After taking several deep breaths, she spoke again, “I know it’s your own money, Leo. But even if it’s your own money, you can’t spend it recklessly. Besides, you are still a member of the Alston Family, and there is still an elder like me in the family who has the right to ask you about it, right?”

However, he remained silent, his gaze indifferent. This silence was an indication that she had no

right to ask.

Just when Melissa became even more frustrated, she heard his voice. “It doesn’t matter who I gave the money to. It is to make up for a mistake I made before. If you want money, you can go find Laura. She will give you the money. I have to go now. If you don’t have any other questions, I’ll leave first.” Leo then nodded at her and turned around to leave.

She was almost driven to madness, but she knew she couldn’t get anything from him at this point, so she could only get into her car with a darkened face.

Only after that did Leo stride into the hospital. He was still worried about Bria, so he needed to see her in person.

On the other hand, after getting into the car, Melissa seethed with anger for a while. Her hideous expression was reflected in the rearview mirror. At the same time, she pounded on the seat again and again, feeling extremely frustrated.

After being frustrated for a while, she called Laura and asked about the whereabouts of the

After a while, she said. “To be honest, I can’t convince Leo, but I can help you.” She purposely walked to a secluded place, away from Laura, before speaking again, “Mrs. Alston, I can make Amelie hate your son. Once she can’t trust him, she will want to continue
