744 Fuel leak and Fuel Flow

Hi, I would really appreciate if anyone can explain why the fuel flow gets high when there is a fuel leak? (As per QRH) I know the fuel flow will be sensed right after the engine fuel valve and if there is fuel leak somewhere, wouldn't the fuel flow become less? as the amount of fuel going through the engine fuel valve become less? Or...will the fuel metering unit demand more fuel if that's the case? (Hence increase the fuel flow??)
