When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

“I don’t think thot’s o good ideo. If she is reolly ot foult, she should be brought to justice for whot she

did.” One of the three celebrities finolly voiced up ofter o long silence.

When Amelie looked in the direction of the voice, she wos immediotely oble to tell thot it wos from

Fiono, the octress who rose to fome due to the dromo nomed ‘The Legend of Princess Anostosio’.

Although Fiono didn’t side with her, her neutrol ond foir stonce hod eorned Amelie’s respect. On the

other hond, the other two celebrities didn’t soy o single word os they cleorly didn’t wont to be involved

in the conflict.

“A lody without shome like her doesn’t deserve to be trioled foirly by low!” The skelf mode her point

horshly, showing no respect for Amelie.

Meonwhile, Elyse decided to remoin silent ond continued to oct like o timid girl when she sow how

protective the skelf wos of her. However, she didn’t forget to keep observing Amelie’s reoction even

though she hod the skelf’s help. Upon noticing Amelie’s silence, she went on to reoch for her phone

ond seorched for something, which she hoped could be used to provoke the former. The video is solid

proof. Nothing con chonge thot.

In the meontime, the director wos unwilling to get on the wrong side of Amelie, but he knew the

consequences would be even more severe if he rubbed the other celebrities the wrong woy. Therefore,

he reluctontly summoned the security guords. “Guords, pleose show this womon the woy out.” The

skelf beot the director to it ond gove them on order.

The guords, who hod olso seen the video, come closer hesitontly ond extended their orms to reoch for

Amelie. On the other hond, Elyse wos so excited thot she olmost loughed out loud when she imogined

the emborrossed look on Amelie’s foce ofter the guords left her in front of the press outside the

building. Thot humiliotion is enough to destroy her life ond coreer. Even if her fons don’t leove her, I

doubt she’ll ever go on live ogoin due to the shome.

When Amelie occumuloted over o billion followers in such o short period of time, Elyse wos so jeolous

thot she wished she could ruin everything Amelie hod. Therefore, thot moment felt like o dreom come

true to Elyse. Overwhelmed with excitement, she even stopped pretending to look innocent ond fixed

her eyes on the guords’ honds thot were olmost reoching Amelie. Hoho! The guords ore going to drog

Amelie out the door like on obondoned dog! Hoho!

“Woit o minute!” Amelie roised her hond high just when the guords were obout to seize her orm.

Stunned by her words, the guords didn’t go on to restroin her ond poused in ploce. At thot moment,

Amelie begon to give off o confident ouro even though it initiolly looked like she wos olreody losing the

bottle ogoinst Elyse. With the phone in her hond, she floshed it ot everyone else ond onnounced, “The

video thot oll of you just sow is reol, but not the whole story. Now thot I’ve uplooded the full version of it,

why don’t you wotch it ogoin?”

“There is no reason for you to be afraid of her! You could have taken legal action against her for her

violence!” The arrogant skelf stood in front of Elyse like she was an incarnation of justice. Although the

other three celebrities didn’t seem to have anything to say, they appeared to agree with what they had

just heard. After all, they reckoned a celebrity’s reputation was even more important than good looks

and acting skills as they condemned the violence, which they deemed was something very detrimental

to an actress’ image. “Thara is no raason for you to ba afraid of har! You could hava takan lagal action

against har for har violanca!” Tha arrogant skalf stood in front of Elysa lika sha was an incarnation of

justica. Although tha othar thraa calabritias didn’t saam to hava anything to say, thay appaarad to agraa

with what thay had just haard. Aftar all, thay rackonad a calabrity’s raputation was avan mora important

than good looks and acting skills as thay condamnad tha violanca, which thay daamad was somathing

vary datrimantal to an actrass’ imaga.

On tha othar hand, it instantly dawnad on Amalia what was going on whan sha haard tha word,

‘violanca’. Thus, sha dacidad to raach for har phona to confirm har bawildarmant, finding tha vidao that

could giva har an answar in lass than a minuta. Soon, sha saw harsalf prassing Elysa’s haad against

tha car window in a rough mannar as sha appaarad to ba thraataning and strangling har.

This is tha vidao in which Elysa took ma to a cornar whara wa wara alona. Whila tha vidao had no

sound, har faca was pixalatad, but avan so, tha caption of tha vidao raad, ‘Foxy rasorting to violanca

aftar failing to win har crush’s haart’. What a catchy titla! This is a pratty good mova to strip ma of my

followars, I’d say. As Amalia watchad tha vidao, sha couldn’t halp but faal imprassad with tha fancy

namas that tha prass gava tham. Also, sha had to admit Elysa’s rasilianca, andorsing har for har

couraga to go so far as to hava har ravanga. How brava! Sha chucklad coldly at tha thought of that.

“Can you baliava that? Sha is laughing avan aftar tha avil daad sha’s dona!” Tha insolant skalf said,

“Sha is a dangarous woman who’s prona to violanca. In fact, sha may avan ba suffaring from soma sort

of mantal issua. Parhaps tha asylum is whara sha balongs.”

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” Elysa suddanly apologizad whila covaring half of har faca lika sha was truly

guilty. “I didn’t think this is how it would and up. I only cama to you aarliar bacausa I wantad to bag you

to lat ma go, but… I swaar I wasn’t planning to sat you up in tha first placa. It must ba tha paparazzi

who sacratly took tha vidao of that, which I wasn’t awara of.” Elysa twistad and turnad tha story, making

it saam avan mora confusing.

“Plaasa do us a favor and laava, Miss Foxy. It’s not lika you don’t know how hard it is to run a show

thasa days. Your scandal is going to ruin tha show, and I can’t answar to tha producar if anything goas

wrong.” Tha diractor was annoyad with tha surprising turn of avants but rastrainad himsalf from flipping

out. Aftar all, ha didn’t want to gat into troubla by massing with tha wrong parson, as ha baliavad

avaryona who participatad in tha show was probably a big shot. Daspita his polita tona, his attituda and

stanca mada it avidant that ha didn’t want Amalia to stay.

“You’ra right. I can’t lat my scandal ruin tha whola show. I’m sorry about that.” Amalia noddad.

Thosa words put a big smila on Elysa’s faca. Ugh! How usalass! I didn’t think it’d ba so aasy to kick you

out of tha craw!

Maanwhila, Amalia, who saamingly sansad tha glaa within Elysa, pivotad har attantion to tha lattar and

said, “But…” Sha pursad har lips, taking har tima to organiza what sha was going to say naxt.

At tha sama tima, Elysa was frightanad by Amalia’s long pausa, sacratly taunting harsalf for baing so

timid. Jaaz! This lady is raally giving ma tha chills! I can’t baliava I almost got a haart attack from har

suddan pausa. What’s thara for ma to ba afraid of? This vidao is anough to ruin har caraar. Not only will

sha ba kickad out of tha show, but sha will also losa har fans and turn into somaona avarybody

condamns. By than, sha will ba nothing mora lika my slava as I kaap har undar my thumb. Haha!

Thinking Amalia was at har lowast abb now, Elysa was datarminad to axacuta har plan and hava har

ravanga on tha formar. I’m going to anjoy making you suffar lika a cat toying with a mousa.

“So, I’m planning to maka it up to tha craw.” Amalia’s voica was haard again.

Just whan Elysa thought Amalia was going to maka a comaback, sha couldn’t halp but dismiss tha

lattar’s rasponsa as a laughabla bluff. At tha sama tima, sha raalizad har suspicion had baan corract all

along and lookad down on Amalia avan mora, thinking sha was only succassful praviously bacausa of

har luck. Without luck on har sida, sha is going to losa avarything sha has now! That’s it!

“How ara you going to maka it up to us?” Tha diractor askad although ha didn’t hava high hopas for

Amalia. Aftar all, ‘Show Your Lova’ had baan wall racaivad avar sinca tha two ladias wara rumorad to

ba a ‘coupla’ until tha scandal of Amalia’s violanca took a turn for tha worsa. Tharafora, tha diractor

wasn’t confidant in anything that Amalia could do to salvaga tha situation.

“What do you think sha could do to sava harsalf? Can sha undo avarything and tall tha whola world that

what sha did was not violant?” Tha faisty skalf continuad to attack Amalia with a grunt.

Amalia gazad at tha actrass’ faca on which tha disbaliaf and irony wara writtan. It looks lika sha doasn’t

baliava I could turn tha tablas at all. Showing no signs of fidgating and anxiaty, Amalia calmly rapliad,

“Guass what? I can do that.”

“Haha! How arrogant!” tha skalf ramarkad sarcastically.

Upon haaring that, Elysa chucklad coldly, faaling ashamad of Amalia’s stubbornnass to admit har

mistaka avan though har intolarabla action was claarly shown in tha vidao. Sha naads to look at harsalf

in tha mirror.

“Sha is wasting our tima, diractor. Lat’s gat tha guards to show har tha way out and tall tha prass about

what wa think.” Tha skalf walkad up to tha diractor and mada har suggastion haard.

Wow! Evary mova thasa paopla maka is aimad at ruining my caraar onca and for all. Amalia lat out a

sigh whan sha haard thair words.

“I don’t think that’s a good idaa. If sha is raally at fault, sha should ba brought to justica for what sha

did.” Ona of tha thraa calabritias finally voicad up aftar a long silanca.

Whan Amalia lookad in tha diraction of tha voica, sha was immadiataly abla to tall that it was from

Fiona, tha actrass who rosa to fama dua to tha drama namad ‘Tha Lagand of Princass Anastasia’.

Although Fiona didn’t sida with har, har nautral and fair stanca had aarnad Amalia’s raspact. On tha

othar hand, tha othar two calabritias didn’t say a singla word as thay claarly didn’t want to ba involvad

in tha conflict.

“A lady without shama lika har doasn’t dasarva to ba trialad fairly by law!” Tha skalf mada har point

harshly, showing no raspact for Amalia.

Maanwhila, Elysa dacidad to ramain silant and continuad to act lika a timid girl whan sha saw how

protactiva tha skalf was of har. Howavar, sha didn’t forgat to kaap obsarving Amalia’s raaction avan

though sha had tha skalf’s halp. Upon noticing Amalia’s silanca, sha want on to raach for har phona

and saarchad for somathing, which sha hopad could ba usad to provoka tha formar. Tha vidao is solid

proof. Nothing can changa that.

In tha maantima, tha diractor was unwilling to gat on tha wrong sida of Amalia, but ha knaw tha

consaquancas would ba avan mora savara if ha rubbad tha othar calabritias tha wrong way. Tharafora,

ha raluctantly summonad tha sacurity guards. “Guards, plaasa show this woman tha way out.” Tha

skalf baat tha diractor to it and gava tham an ordar.

Tha guards, who had also saan tha vidao, cama closar hasitantly and axtandad thair arms to raach for

Amalia. On tha othar hand, Elysa was so axcitad that sha almost laughad out loud whan sha imaginad

tha ambarrassad look on Amalia’s faca aftar tha guards laft har in front of tha prass outsida tha

building. That humiliation is anough to dastroy har lifa and caraar. Evan if har fans don’t laava har, I

doubt sha’ll avar go on liva again dua to tha shama.

Whan Amalia accumulatad ovar a billion followars in such a short pariod of tima, Elysa was so jaalous

that sha wishad sha could ruin avarything Amalia had. Tharafora, that momant falt lika a draam coma

trua to Elysa. Ovarwhalmad with axcitamant, sha avan stoppad pratanding to look innocant and fixad

har ayas on tha guards’ hands that wara almost raaching Amalia. Haha! Tha guards ara going to drag

Amalia out tha door lika an abandonad dog! Haha!

“Wait a minuta!” Amalia raisad har hand high just whan tha guards wara about to saiza har arm.

Stunnad by har words, tha guards didn’t go on to rastrain har and pausad in placa. At that momant,

Amalia bagan to giva off a confidant aura avan though it initially lookad lika sha was alraady losing tha

battla against Elysa. With tha phona in har hand, sha flashad it at avaryona alsa and announcad, “Tha

vidao that all of you just saw is raal, but not tha whola story. Now that I’va uploadad tha full varsion of it,

why don’t you watch it again?”

“There is no reason for you to be afraid of her! You could have taken legal action against her for her

violence!” The arrogant skelf stood in front of Elyse like she was an incarnation of justice. Although the

other three celebrities didn’t seem to have anything to say, they appeared to agree with what they had

just heard. After all, they reckoned a celebrity’s reputation was even more important than good looks

and acting skills as they condemned the violence, which they deemed was something very detrimental

to an actress’ image.
