A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Amelie was taken aback for a moment. It was not like she hadn’t thought about this question before, but she always

felt that the reasons she came up with were too far-fetched.

All this while, she had little to no interaction with Elyse, knowing her only through Leo. Now that she and Leo were

divorced, Elyse had no reason to target her anymore.

“Probably because she’s jealous of my talent,” she deduced.

Julia was amused by her response and chuckled. “Well, you’d better be careful then. From now on, all the live

streamers on the internet will probably be jealous of your talent. You might even have people trying to assassinate

you every day.”

After exchanging a few jokes, they hung up.

Then, Amelie lowered her head and flipped through the official Twitter account of ‘Show Your Love’. As she had

expected, the whole of Twitter was in chaos because of her and Elyse’s affair; Their fans were even bickering with

each other.

Since Elyse’s fan base was too small, it was not enough to make an impact. They were all attacked by Amelie’s fans

whenever they wanted to start an argument. After that, none of them dared leave any comments anymore.

Gradually, the whole event turned from argument to discussion.

Everyone expressed their understanding for Amelie to go public with her ‘relationship’, but there was some

occasional criticism, saying that she had poor taste and wondering why she chose a fake b*tch like Elyse.

Following that, someone exposed a bunch of Elyse’s indecent behaviors.

The production team loved effects like this. So, they didn’t address these comments. Instead, they released a

teaser saying that they’d recruited a male guest and that there would be surprises for the next episode.

The characteristic of the show ‘Show Your Love’ was that they first gathered all the female or male guests and

then, through their appearance on the first episode, attracted celebrities or well-known individuals who were

interested in these guests to sign up for the show.

Amelie participated in this show purely to mess with Elyse, so she didn’t care about who the male guest on the next

episode would be. After only taking a glance at the teaser, she closed it right away.

After calming down, she couldn’t help but think of the question Julia had asked as she propped her chin up.

The next day, she took Bria downstairs to go to school as usual. Since their house wasn’t far from the kindergarten,

she decided to walk Bria there.

The morning air was fresh, and Halport, as a model of a civilized city in the country, was green with lush trees and

clean water. There were even birds flying around, truly living up to its reputation as a desirable city.

Along the way, Bria bounced and hopped, greeting every street vendor. She was cute and friendly, which made all

the vendors like her. In the end, her arms were full of soy milk, croissants, and sandwiches that the vendor gave

her.

When Amelie saw Bria carrying a variety of breakfast items in her arms, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Is

this a genetic mutation? She wasn’t someone who could talk to anyone. Only when she was on air would she be

more relaxed. As for Leo, his quiet personality made it impossible for him to be loved by everyone.

Just as she was immersed in her thoughts, a white car drove past her at a distance of mere inches from her foot,

startling her. She quickly pulled Bria to the side, away from the road, and her eyes followed the car instinctively. At

this moment, what she saw was a beautiful face full of hatred. Elyse?

Elyse’s car drove off without stopping. At once, Amelie’s gaze turned bloodcurdling.

When Amelie arrived at the kindergarten, she saw Elyse’s car parked on the side of the building, partially covered

by the leaves. When the car window was wound down, she could see Elyse’s white clothes and her tightly clenched

jaw. Seemingly afraid of being recognized, she was wearing large sunglasses as well.

Amelie didn’t look any further and calmly handed Bria over to the teacher, instructing the teacher to pay close

attention to her safety.

“Don’t worry, Miss Dillon. Unless it’s someone you designated for pickup, we won’t let anyone take her away,” the

teacher quickly replied.

“Okay, thank you.” Amelie walked out after bidding goodbye to Bria and the teacher.

As soon as she turned around, her wrist was grabbed by someone, and the person pulled her to the side. The one

pulling her was none other than Elyse. Elyse pulled her roughly and with great force. Since Amelie wanted to know

what Elyse was doing there, she followed her to the car without struggling.

Elyse then pushed her into her car, and they drove to a deserted area before stopping. After stepping out of the

car, Elyse slammed the door shut, which was enough to show how furious she was.

On the contrary, Amelie slowly unbuckled her seatbelt and casually opened the door. Without bothering to close it,

she rested her arm on the car door and looked at Elyse calmly.

With her hands on her hips, Elyse paced back and forth before confronting Amelie. “What do you gain by making

me fail, Amelie? Can you stop targeting me?”

Amelie’s gaze remained calm as she put on a smile. “It’s true that your failure doesn’t benefit me. If it weren’t for

you targeting me, I wouldn’t waste my time talking to you. How about this? Tell me why you want to kill me, and I’ll

let you go.”

“What are you talking about? I never wanted to kill you. Don’t make baseless accusations!” Although Elyse intended

to negotiate with Amelie, she knew she should never admit this. It was Ashton who did it, after all. I just need to

keep denying it since she won’t be able to find any evidence, either.

Hearing that, Amelie nodded nonchalantly and smirked. “Since you deny it, I guess I’ll have to continue then, right?”

As she said that, she looked at Elyse with a meaningful gaze. It was plain and simple, but in Elyse’s eyes, it was full

of murderous intent.

Elyse knew that Amelie was not someone to be trifled with. Once she concludes that I want to harm her, she won’t

spare me for sure. Previously, she had already made me suffer because of that little trick of mine. The investors

who had initially seen potential in me after I joined ‘Show Your Love’ are now all avoiding me! If this continues, I’ll

lose my place in the entertainment industry!

Meanwhile, Amelie had no interest in waiting for Elyse to engage in her thoughts, so she turned around and started

to walk away.

At that sight, the furious Elyse clenched her fists tightly. “Must you be so merciless, Amelie? I will bite too if you push

me too far! Let’s not forget that your precious daughter is in school, and she will cross that road every day. Do you

suppose she’ll be gone if I had just driven a little further ahead?”

When Elyse was talking, Amelie was gradually walking away, but at these words, she spun around. Before Elyse

could even see what had happened, Amelie was already in front of her, pressing her throat against the car window.

“Ah!”

Amelie’s grip on her throat suddenly tightened to the point where she couldn’t even draw a breath.

At the same time, Elyse struggled to pull Amelie’s hand off her, but it was like a pair of pliers, immovable from her

neck. Her face was squeezed against the car window, making it completely distorted. In the end, her sunglasses

couldn’t withstand the pressure and shattered with a crack. The broken edge bounced against her face, leaving a

bloody mark.

Just then, Amelie’s face slowly approached her. Her usually carefree expression was twisted with intense anger

while she glared at Elyse with a death stare.

Elyse had never seen Amelie enraged, so it caused her body to tremble in fear.

“Listen!” While squeezing Elyse’s neck, Amelie brought Elyse close to her own face and said word-for-word, “If my

daughter loses a single strand of hair…”

She pointed her long finger at Elyse’s face, causing her to flinch as she wanted to dodge it. Yet, Amelie pressed her

finger forcefully on Elyse’s wound, wiping away the beads of blood and then slowly smearing it back on her face. “I

promise you a painful death!”

With a loud bang, she pushed Elyse back against the car window before walking away.

With her head spinning, Elyse slid to the ground as she leaned against the car window. At that moment, she was like

a dead chicken that had had its fur all plucked. She hugged herself tightly, but her trembling still couldn’t be

stopped. What on earth was that, Amelie? Dang it!

On the other hand, in a hidden location where nobody would notice, a camera was silently recording the scene…
