When I Was A Wallflower Chapter 199


    Chapter 199


    “Any recollection?” Leo’s expression remained unchanged, but Elyse could sense his hostility. The


    frostiness sent chills deep into her bones. She finally looked up shakily with darting eyes. “Leo…”“You


    can’t hide what you did forever. Calista from Kirkford Vige is the daughter of the family who got Bria


    buried under the pir. The other three are rted to their family.”She did not need further exnation


    to understand what he was getting at. Not only had he gotten to the bottom of the incident, but he also


    hurt everyone she worked with to take revenge on her, and he didn’t even bother to hide the truth. It


    was a clear attempt at taunting and humiliating her.How ruthless!Elyse sat tensely on the bed and


    realized btedly that, before this, Leo had only shown her a tenth of the ruthlessness he was capable


    of.“Get her the best medicine, doctor, and nurse,” Leo gave some instructions and left.Eugene, who


    had been following Leo around, stole a nce at Elyse and looked at Leo with pursed lips. Leo took


    revenge on Elyse because of her wrongdoing, but he asked Eugene to take care of Elyse out of


    courtesy. It was Leo’s way of telling Elyse that Ellen’s kindness could only go so far as to spare Elyse’s


    life, and served as a warning that Elyse might end up in a worse situation if she dared to misbehave.…


    Bria suffered from some fractures but was not in serious condition. When Amelie was released from the


    hospital, she brought Bria home with her and hired a doctor to look after Bria.Meanwhile, Samuel and


    Julia did not slow down on their investigations. One day, he and Julia visited Amelie with the results of


    their investigation. “Someone purposely shoved Bria under the pir.”Amelie had expected the answer,


    but the truth still crushed her.“How could they hurt a kid? That’s pure evil!” As one of the victims, Julia


    took the investigation personally. She could not hold back her anger and resentment. “Have we found


    the criminals behind this? They’d better not get caught because I will skin them alive!”Samuel gave her


    a look. He could not deal with her temper, but he also understood that she suffered from guilt for failing


    to protect Bria in the ident. He reached out to squeeze her hand.Amelie was slightly better at


    keeping her emotions in check, but as Bria’s mother, she was anxious to know the oue of the


    investigation. Samuel read their expression and stared at Amelie with a knowing look. “I found the


    people behind the ident, but something odd happened to them. They were all hurt to different


    extents over the past two days.”He pursed his lips tensely before continuing. “The guy who caused


    Julia’s wrist dislocation got into an ident two days ago and lost both arms. The couple who shoved


    Bria under the pir was now buried in a copsed mine. They are alive but are likely to be paralyzed


    from the incident.”“The others got into different troubles as well, to the point that the Kirkford vigers


    thought there must be some paranormal activities around. They have been holding ceremonies for


    days to drive away the spirits.”Amelie and Julia took deep breaths, for they knew that ghosts were


    merely superstitions. Someone was behind the rogue justice, leaving them wondering about the identity


    of this merciless and ruthless person.Their eyes fell on Samuel. Amelie whispered her guess, “Could


    that person be… Leo…” Leo’s figure popped up in her mind.“Leo Alston?” Julia finished her sentence.


    “Is that possible?”“Based on our analysis, we could confirm that he was behind the revenge,” Samuel


    added. Amelie’s expression crumbled as she struggled toprehend. She knew that the perpetrators


    were seemingly after Bria, but they were really after her. Is Leo avenging me? Amelie wondered.“There


    must be a mastermind behind the copse. What’s the motive of the vigers in hurting Bria when they


    had nothing to do with us?” Julia asked a pointed question. Samuel’s expression changed when he


    heard that. After a pause, he exined, “This has been the focus of our investigation. But someone


    clearly destroyed the evidence by erasing the key information. That’s why nothing showed up in our


    investigation.”“Erasing information?” Julia’s heart sank. “Who would do that?”“I’m not sure.” Samuel


    shook his head. “But one thing is clear—two different groups were behind this ident.”“That


    mastermind must be very powerful to get help from two different groups.” Samuel’s remark led to more


    doubts in Julia.“It’s not hard to guess.” Amelie finally spoke after a long silence. “Just list out the people


    who hold grudges against me, and we’ll get the answer.”Amelie was indeed intelligent. Julia came to a


    realization and pped her thighs in excitement. “Yes! Why have we not thought of that? My kind Elie,


    you rarely make enemies. There are only a few who hold grudges against you!”Julia did not name the


    three people, but they knew the answer. Elyse yton, Melissa Richards, and Jodie Alston were prime


    suspects.The Alstons would never mess with Bria to hurt Amelie, which left Elyse as the only


    suspect.Samuel marveled at Amelie’s wits. He appeared troubled when he considered Julia’s point. He


    finally confessed with much difficulty, “Something else happened at Kirkford as well. Two days ago,N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    Elyse was abducted by the vigers and thrown to a madman. The madman burned down the house


    she was kept in, and she almost died in the fire.”“Why didn’t she just die?” Julia cursed spitefully,


    showing her extreme dislike for Elyse. Samuel went on, “But Leo Alston arrived on time and saved her


    life. She suffered from a fractured leg because of the fire and was warded in the hospital.”“What’s


    wrong with Leo Alston? Why is he good to that phony b*tch?” Juliained grudgingly again.


    “Anyway, this shows that the vigers were noting for Elie—they were after Leo. Is that right?”It


    was unsurprising that Bria and Elyse were tied with Leo because they were close to him. Still, Amelie


    held a different opinion. “There might be some misunderstanding. Don’t you think that what the


    vigers did to Elyse was intentional revenge?”“Are you saying that Elyse was responsible for the


    copse, and someone who knew the truth got the vigers to take revenge on her?” Julia’s eyes


    sparkled excitedly at Amelie’s bold assumption, which cleared some of their lingering doubts.Amelie fell


    silent and pursed her lips with a thoughtful expression. If Leo could discover the identity of the people


    who shoved Bria, he must have also found out that Elyse was the perpetrator. Even after Elyse


    committed a horrific crime, he was unwilling to hurt her. What’s that about?She wondered if he was one


    of the people who helped to erase evidence that implicated Elyse.He’s still as protective and attentive


    when ites to Elyse. Amelie sighed and smiled bitterly. She realized that Leo only took revenge


    against the vigers for Bria, not her.At the thought of it, she stood up without warning, which startled


    Julia. “Elie?”“I need to get something done. I’ll be out for a while.” Amelie was gone in no time.“Where’s


    Elie going?” Julia was bbergasted.Samuel did not reply, but he appeared more worried than before.
