Amelie returned to the hospital with Bria.
Julia and Steven had heard the news and soon hurried over.
“My Bria, my dear granddaughter.” Steven wrapped his arms around Bria as he cried like a little boy.
Amelie’s heart clenched as she looked at her father.
He had never once thought of wanting anything for himself. He gave all his love to Amelie and
Bria.
They were more important than life to him.
Steven’s tears made Bria reach out to wrap her arms around his neck. “Don’t cry, Grandpa. There,
there.”
As she comforted him, she wiped away his tears.
They made quite the heartwarming sight.
Julia turned to look at them as well. When she saw Bria and Steven hugging, she could not help but let
out an aww.
“How did you find Bria?” It was hard not to be curious.
The entire incident started with so much terror, but the ending was so strange that anyone would be
surprised.
Amelie tiredly rubbed her eyes. She did not want to speak of Leo in front of Bria and Steven, so she
pressed a hand on Julia’s hand as a gesture to say they would speak about it later
In spite of her raging curiosity, Julia suppressed it and nodded.
Amelie stayed by Bria and Steven’s side.
They then called a doctor to thoroughly check Bria over.
They only stopped worrying after the doctor said Bria was completely fine and cured of her mild
poisoning.
It was inevitable that Steven would ask about Bria’s disappearance, but Amelie merely told him that a
human trafficker had snuck into the hospital and stolen her away.
She was not afraid of the Alstons, but afraid of his old age. She was afraid something bad might
happen.
The group eventually left the hospital.
Amelie waited until both Bria and Steven were asleep before heading downstairs.
Julia and Samuel were waiting for her.

When Amelie appeared, Julia swiftly strode over to her with fire in her eyes.
“Elie, Leo and the Alstons have gone over the line! No matter what, we cannot forgive them for this! I’ve
already contacted the lawyers. A public complaint will be sent soon. We will sue them!”
In the time Amelie spent with her daughter and father, Julia found out about what happened through
Samuel.
Samuel worriedly glanced at his short-tempered fiancée. “There are too many suspicious details in this
incident. Don’t you think you’re being a little hasty?”
He then turned to Amelie. “I know you’re all angry, but don’t you find it strange? Why does Leo need to
go through all the effort to drug Bria before taking her away from the hospital? Why was she specifically
brought to Leo’s home instead of anywhere else?”
Julia’s hatred for Leo was currently so strong that the mere mention of his name set her heart
aflame.
She scoffed upon hearing Samuel’s questions. “It’s all an act. They have to make it realistic to sell the
act. While he was playing us for fools, he secretly stole Bria. Then, he will accuse us of being too
careless with Bria. With evidence, it will be so easy for him to gain custody of her. As for why he had
the child brought to his home, it must be because he thought the most dangerous place is the safest
hiding spot. He thought we wouldn’t search his properties. That’s why he had the guts to be so brazen.”
“Even so, he is Bria’s father. How could he drug his own child?”
“Leo Alston is a cold-blooded man. Naturally, the end justifies the means. You both know how he is
when it comes to business over the years. What’s there to wonder about?”
Samuel opened his mouth as if to rebuke, but eventually kept quiet and just glanced at Amelie.
Julia was beside herself with anger right now, so she would not listen to logic at all.
Amelie met Samuel’s eyes. The question she saw in his gaze startled him.
“Elie, you don’t believe Samuel’s hypotheses, right?” Julia asked, dashing over to tug at Amelie’s
“Julia, let Elie think for herself,” Samuel softly said.
Although Julia was extremely upset, she still went quiet.
Amelie silently contemplated for a full minute before eventually opening her mouth…
Night had fallen.
Melissa was not fast asleep in bed as she usually would be.
Currently, she was rushing down a long corridor with hurried footsteps.
Her fingers clutched tight at her bag.
It was twisted out of shape by now from her fingers.
As she stopped in front of a door, she pressed hard on the doorbell.
“Who is it?” The person calling out from within was audibly upset at being disturbed in the middle of the
night.
The door opened.
A beautiful face soon appeared.
Without saying a single word, Melissä immediately slapped the other person.
It was a loud slap.
The crisp sound echoed through the night.
With how silent the night was, it was a shocking sound to hear.
“Elyse Clayton!” she spat out through gritted teeth. Her rather youthful face was twisted in an ugly
expression.
Melissa’s eyes were burning with anger and hatred for Elyse.
Despite the hard slap, Elyse did not look shocked at all. Instead, she casually covered her cheek with a
hand.
There was a lazy, scornful-look in her eyes.
“What are you doing, Mrs. Alston? I am a celebrity who might be photographed at any moment. If
someone just so happens to take a picture of this moment, tomorrow’s headlines would be all
She spoke in such a demeanor that it did not sound like she was talking to someone of a higher
seniority than her.
Those words infuriated Melissa even more.
Nevertheless, she walked into the apartment, slamming the door shut behind her.
She scanned the apartment and checked to make sure all the windows were covered. “Elyse, you keep
saying you’ll help me, but is this it? How dare you! How could you poison Bria and steal her away?
Don’t you know it’s against the law?”
“I will sue you!”
Elyse nonchalantly lowered her head and fidgeted with her fresh clear nails. “Was it me? Do you have
proof? Mrs. Alston, if you don’t have proof, that’s slander.”
“You!”
Melissa was trembling with fury upon being rebuked.
“I regret working with you.”
Elyse did not retort this time and continued smirking.
Melissa was still huffing with anger. When she saw the smirk, she shot Else a glare. “Amelie is now
going to sue Leo and the Alstons. If any one of us is hurt at all, you will suffer as well!”
After the threat was delivered, she angrily stomped out of the apartment.
Elyse knew Melissa was not a big-hearted woman, and she particularly despised Melissa’s haughty
attitude. Still, she plastered on a gleeful smile and pulled Melissa back into the
apartment.
“Are you looking down on your son, Mrs. Alston? He is so powerful that Amelie is nothing before him.
Don’t worry. She will not win.”
She then spun Melissa around forcefully. “You want them to become enemies, right? This is our
best chance.”
Melissa’s frigid face slowly warmed up when she heard that.
The rage in her eyes simmered down.
It was undeniable that Elyse had succeeded in persuading her.
Implicitly, Melissa was saying Elyse was forgiven this time.
The proud and snobbish look in Melissa’s gaze made Elyse scoff internally.
She thinks she’s high-class yet would throw away her granddaughter’s life just for her own benefit. Just
another rich selfish person. Worse than a beast. High-class my ‘ss. Still, it was all thanks to her that
today’s incident happened. No matter how smart Leo is, he will never find out about my involvement.
When Melissa finally left the apartment satisfied, Elyse let out a cold smirk. “Oh, Leo, this is the price
for abandoning me. What would you feel if you one day realize you have hurt the heart of your beloved
Big Eyes?”
Just as she was smugly thinking about that, her phone began to ring.

When she looked down at it, she was surprised to see it was a call from Toby.
“Is there something you need, Mr. Walsh?” she coldly asked. He did not like her anyway.
“It’s not me,” Toby replied. “It’s Leo.”
Elyse was stunned to hear that Leo wanted to talk to her.
“I’m sorry, but I am already in bed,” she said.
“Do you really not want to come here and see what’s happening?” After asking that, he gave her an
address.
Then, he hung up.
