Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 240

Chapter 240 Defending Amelia

I had always regarded Leonard as a righteous gentleman, despite all his disgusting missteps in our marriage. In my eyes, putting aside his infidelity, he was a moral man.

Too bad I was proven wrong. From this incident, I learned that Leonard was a man without principles, through and through. He would go to any lengths to protect his and Amelia's interests. To achieve that goal, he would not feel an ounce of guilt for scapegoating the others.

I spotted some strange emotions in his eyes, but it did not matter.

I spat, "Leonard Harmon, Amelia Miller, you disgust me."

I did not give a damn about Leonard's memory confusion. All I knew was I could never spend my life with a man like him. The sight of him appalled me.

After I dry heaved for a bit, Leonard finally spoke. "Eva, stop that nonsense. I nearly forgot about this home, and I have no idea about the documents you mentioned. You're just stirring

in trouble without reason! Harmon Group's reputation has suffered enough. Can you

please stop it?"

He sounded accusatory as though I were in the wrong for refusing to be his scapegoat. I should have sacrificed unconditionally and given my blessing to his touching romance with Amelia. Why should I?

I took a deep breath and stared at Amelia. "Do you have no idea about the incident too? Are you sure you were never here? What'll happen when I call the police for an investigation? Are you confident they won't replace your hair, fingerprints, and DNA lying around?" Suddenly, Amelia hid behind Leonard and cowered. He immediately lost it. "Eva, is bullying Amelia all you can do? Amelia grew up in wealth, and she is too innocent and naive for your manipulations!

"I know you are distrustful because of your upbringing, but you're wrong to slander Amy."

I was on the verge of losing my temper, but I found myself speechless at his remark. He confused me with Amelia again, and this was not the first mix-up.

He appeared to have retained his memories, but he could not reconcile my face with his memories for the sake of his life. I was baffled by his unreasonable and incomprehensible behavior.

1 drew a deep breath to calm down. "Leonard, I will have to serve a 10-year sentence minimum if I am found guilty."

"And that's none of my business!" Refusing to meet my eyes, he left home with his beloved.

woman in his arms.

I Chacar- 240 Defending Amela

It was at that moment I went limp and fainted. Jill tried her best to hold me. She comforted me

in a shaking voice, "H

wake up! We have a lot of problems to tackle. Eva Green, I'm by your

side!"

Later, Jill sent me to the hospital and told me she would look for evidence, but I doubted she could replace any. As the homeowner, Leonard could easily destroy all the evidence.

I suddenly lost all interest in going back to the home I shared with him. I much preferred Mom's apartment unit, which was sadly the only place I could call home at this time.

When the news reached Emma, she called me and started cursing like a tailor. I had never witnessed this side of her. Judging from the background noise, she must be in the office. I quickly hung up on her. She still needed the job at Harmon Group, and I wouldn't want her to get into trouble for her conduct.

The property management office, perhaps wanting to take advantage of the incident for attention, spread the news of Leonard and his lover raiding his home on the internet. The attached photo not only showed Leonard holding Amelia but also the presence of the police.. Once again, public opinion shifted against the Harmon Group. During this PR trouble, Leonard -called me a few times, but I rejected his calls as I had nothing more to discuss with him.

If he insisted on making me the scapegoat, I would drag him down with me as I had nothing to

lose.
