A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

However, Amelie didn’t give him a chance to speak and continued, “There are many people who wear Chanel in

this world If what you said is true, is everyone trying to imitate Miss Clayton?”

Hearing her words, Ashton widened his eyes in shock while looking at her. In his memory, Amelie was always a

cautious and uptight woman, seemingly as if she had never experienced life. Even when he mistreated her in front

of Leo, she never dared to retaliate, but things had changed now, and she was speaking to him sarcastically

As a person who was born into a noble family, Ashton was arrogant and had never been talked back to by anyone.

Thus, when he heard Amelie’s words, his face darkened, and there was fury in his eyes.

Despite that, Arnelie didn’t indulge him and continued, I’m afraid you might have hearing issues since you

can’t even tell that this is my actual voice when you have been at the Alston Residence for so many times. Thus, I’d

advise you to see a doctor and perhaps check if there is anything wrong with your brain. After all, you are the

young master of the Lowe Family. If you are acting like a fool, you’ll only humiliate yourself!” Then, she ignored him

and flipped her hair, striding away.

Did she… just scold me? Glaring at Amelie’s figure with wide eyes, Ashton thought to himself and twitched his

fingers. Then, he punched the guardrail hard and cursed, “Damn it!”

Once Amelie was done with everything, she went home, hugged Bria, and slept in satisfaction. She had to get up

early tomorrow morning since she had to return to her father’s place.

To be honest, Amelie had bad sleep quality. When she lived at the Alston Residence, Leo would come home late

every day, and Melissa would order her to open the door for him. Although this was supposed to be a servant’s job,

Amelie was happy to do it since she was deeply in love with Leo. Besides, this was the only time she could see and

talk to him.

Since Leo was impatient and would kick the door in a tantrum when no one opened the door for him on the first

knock, Amelie didn’t dare sleep soundly when he was not around, afraid that Bria would be disturbed in her sleep.

So, to avoid getting Leo mad, Amelie would open the door as soon as she heard the car engine. Even though she

was met with Leo’s cold face every time she opened the door for him, she was happy to oblige. Sometimes, when

Leo didn’t come home all night, she didn’t even dare call him and would pull an all- nighter instead.

Thinking about what she had done for him in the past, Amelie felt that she was a fool blinded by love. Now that she

didn’t have to worry about Leo’s return, she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

While Amelie was sleeping soundly, Leo was drinking at Prix Bar. At this moment, Amelie’s words engulfed

him.

During those years, he was furious that Amelie had set him up. Hence, he never treated her like she was his wife

despite being married. Not only that, he didn’t even treat her like a human being.

Visiting his father’s grave was a mere formality, so he had subconsciously left her by the road when Elyse called

him. At that moment, it didn’t occur to him if Amelie was pregnant or if she could return home! After that day, she

disappeared for a couple of days, but he didn’t care since he wished she would disappear

forever in his heart!

Then, she returned and looked skinnier than before, staggering wherever she went. When he saw her, he thought

she was acting and still ignored her. Moreover, he even allowed Jodie to cause her trouble.

Did she have a miscarriage back then? Leo thought to himself.

Although he did things the hard way and had a heart made of stone, he never wanted to cause a woman to starve

and freeze to the point where she would have a miscarriage. As Leo thought about it, he felt a sharp pain in his

heart as he felt guilty.

At that moment, Laura, who was wearing casual attire, walked toward him and said, “Mr. Alston.” Then, she eyed

him secretly and was startled momentarily when she saw the depression in his eyes. However, she didn’t ask about

it and said in a low voice, “I have investigated what you told me to. During the day you and Miss Dillon divorced,

there were 158 couples who divorced as well. I checked their work units, but no one seems to be Starlight Media’s

boss. Then, she added, “I’m sorry that I couldn’t find the divorce registration for Starlight Media’s boss.”

Hearing her words, Leo gripped his glass tightly. After a while, he snapped out of his thoughts and looked at her

while frowning However, he smoothened his eyebrows quickly. His expression was calm as he said, “There’s no

need to investigate this matter further.”

“Alright. It just so happens that Elyse doesn’t want you to investigate it too. When I was on my way here, she even

told me to do her a favor and wished that you would no longer cause trouble for Amelie. You indeed treated Elyse

differently. Laura’s tone had a hint of cheerfulness as she spoke.

When Leo stood up and heard her words, he stiffened. Although he did intend to leave Amelie alone, he didn’t do it

because of Elyse’s favor but because of Amelie herself.

Amelie is right. No matter how miserable I felt during the set-up, the Alstons did benefit from the situation. Hence, I

am willing to let her off the hook and… cut ties with her, Leo thought.

Thinking about it, he ordered Laura coldly, “From now onward, no one is allowed to talk about Amelie or the boss of

Starlight Media.”

“Yes,” said Laura.

Then, Leo looked at her with a dark gaze and said, “Also, please help me look into something else.”
