When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 186

What Brianna found was a news report concerning Leo.

The headline was, ‘Elyse Clayton’s On/Off Relationship with the Rich Young Master Finally Blossomed’, and the sub headline was, ‘The Alstons officially announce their engagement date’, followed by the date.

The main text wrote about the story of Leo proposing to Elyse on the hospital rooftop a few days ago, and she agreed to the engagement. However, he was worried that his lover might have a change of heart, so he brought the engagement forward to keep her heart.

The more Amelie read, the harder it was to continue reading, and she pursed her lips silently.

Even though she knew that it was only a matter of time before Leo and Elyse got married, it still made her very uneasy, especially after she found out that Elyse had ganged up with Ashton to take Brianna away.

Leo had repeatedly verified for himself that Elyse had a vile character, but he still held her dearly in his hands, giving his whole heart to her. What sort of mentality was this?

She was even a little suspicious about whether Elyse had saved the universe in her past life. Otherwise, why would a man be so loyal to her?

As Brianna could only read a few words, she couldn’t understand such a lengthy news report, and the reason for her excitement was seeing her father in the news.

She became puzzled and rubbed her big eyes, asking, “Mommy, why did Daddy take a picture with this strange lady? What’s written there?”

Amelie gently drew the report out of her palms and held her in her arms. “Listen to me, Bria. We’re separated from Daddy and the Alston Family. So, Daddy will get engaged and marry another woman in the future, and this lady will be his future wife.”

Although she knew that Brianna’s opinion of Leo had changed recently, she didn’t want to hide the truth from her. The last thing she wanted was to see her darling daughter pin any hopes on him, and neither did she want Briar to be hurt when she found out about this from someone else. Therefore, she decided to take precautions in advance.

“Really?” The smile on Brianna’s face disappeared immediately, and great disappointment took its place instead.

She bit her lip, played with her tiny fingers, and hung her head quietly as she processed the news.

Amelie felt her heart wrenching when she saw Brianna in this state, but all she could do was stroke her head over and over as a form of comfort.

“I’m tired. I want to go to bed,” Brianna said after a while.
