Chapter 315 She Is Nothing Compared to Foxy

The situation gave Melissa a headache. Now that Jodie was bugging her, she felt like she was about to

explode from frustration. "You brought this upon yourself, so why are you asking for my help?"

"Are you still my mother? How can you not care about my situation?!" Jodie shrieked.

Melissa was in a sticky situation herself, so she didn't have the spare time to care about Jodie. Seeing

that Jodie couldn't deal with it on her own, she felt her head throb.

"You are twenty-five years old, Jodie. You are a grown-up. I can't decide everything for you anymore.

You should think on your own."

Jodie was mad at Melissa's dispassionate response. "What else can I think about? I was having a great

time and didn't cause trouble. However, this happened! Did you offend someone, Mom?" Although

Jodie wasn't smart, she was at least good at making wild guesses.

When Melissa heard her words, she was embarrassed. However, she denied it, saying, "Don't you dare

talk nonsense about me! How can I possibly cause any trouble? Moreover, this is our family affairs, and

only a few people know about it. Now that it was being mentioned, it was clear that someone was

behind this!"

At that moment, Jodie thought about a specific person. "Amelie!" she cried out. "It must be her! It can

only be her! She did this because she wanted to take revenge on us and hold on to Leo!"

Jodie could only think of Amelie since Elyse was dead, and Ellen was a madwoman who knew nothing

about the Alston Family's affairs.

Melissa was thinking the same thing too.

"This woman! I never expected that she would act in such a way when she used to be kind in our

house! Why hasn't she thought about how unworthy she is? Not only did she not deserve Leo, she

even took the initiative to get a divorce. However, she is acting as a victim in this story! This is just

horrible!" Melissa was venting her anger.

Jodie was also furious when she heard Melissa's words. "That's right! If I must say, she is a cunning

woman! She tried to make us beg her to stay by using the divorce. When her plan backfired, she

started causing a ruckus!"

"This b*tch! What else can she do aside from this? She is nothing compared to Foxy." To Melissa, there

was a huge difference between Amelie and Foxy.

"You are quite smart in this, right, Jojo? Hurry up and think of a way to mess with her."

"To mess with her?" Although Jodie was angry about Amelie, she recoiled at the thought of messing

with her. After all, she had lost multiple times when going against Amelie, so she couldn't help but

shiver at the thought of it. "Let's forget it, Mom. If we were to do anything now, she would find an

opportunity to get payback. If that happens, it will even be harder on our reputation."

When Melissa heard her words, she felt that Jodie was right.

"Why don't you think of a way to get on her good side, Mom? Maybe then she will stop messing with

us," suggested Jodie.

"Get on her good side?" As soon as Melissa heard her words, she wanted to slap her daughter across

her face.

She would rather die than try to win over Amelie. Plus, if she were to do this, she would be

surrendering to her. There was no way she would do it. After all, she was a noblewoman. How could

she yield against a poor woman?

"No!" Melissa refused without hesitation. "She doesn't deserve it." Knowing that she couldn't count on

Jodie to think of a better solution, Melissa hung up the phone.

As she sat on the bed, she was frustrated and couldn't accept the fact that this had happened. After all,

she was Melissa, the mistress of the Alston Family, who was at the top of the pyramid. There was no

way she would endure this humiliation!

…

"Amelie?"

When Amelie left Starlight Media, she heard someone calling her. She turned her head and saw

Melissa standing in the hall.

Melissa was hooking a yellow-striped leather purse in her hand. She looked elegant as always and

looked down on everyone. The only difference about her today was that she wore a pair of sunglasses

and a mask.

If Amelie hadn't known her well, she would have misrecognized her as someone else.

Melissa came to push her luck since she heard that Foxy used to work at Starlight Media. However,

she didn't expect to meet the person she loathed. At this moment, she frowned and looked at Amelie

with contempt. "I thought you swore you would never rely on Starlight Media and raise Bria on your

own? It looks like you lied to me. If that's the case, you better hand her to me now!" She had been

suppressing her anger along the way. Now that she had caught Amelie red-handed, she exposed her

immediately.

As Amelie heard her words, she looked at Melissa before asking with a smirk, "How can you accuse

me of taking Starlight Media's money when I just stood here? What are you thinking about?"

"Don't act a fool!" Melissa had seen how eloquent Amelie could be after she had divorced Leo. Hence,

she would not let her guard down. "First of all, you don't have a job. Secondly, you don't have the ability

to do so. If you want to live with your father and Bria, you must rely on Starlight Media. There is no way

Leo would help you out on this, right?"

Recalling that Amelie had been seen walking with Leo, Melissa felt she had found the truth.

"You are such a shameless woman, Amelie. It was you who wanted a divorce and was willing to leave

without anything. Yet, you are still pestering Leo. Don't you feel embarrassed about it?"

Hearing her accusation, Amelie looked at her coldly and felt speechless. She really thinks I am a

useless person. Why can't she think of other things rather than accusing me of using Starlight Media or

Leo?

Thinking about it, Amelie jeered and replied, "If you are doubtful, you can find evidence about it. Check

Leo's account, Mrs. Alston. If you were to find out that I have taken even a single penny for him, I'd pay

you back ten times!" Then, she turned around and left.

Seeing that she was being high-profile, Melissa quickly grabbed her and said, "Wait! Even if you didn't

take money from Leo, you could have taken the money from the company. Since you have broken the

promise, you must give Bria back to me! If you wish to keep her, you have to sign an agreement with

me saying that you will never interact with Leo ever again!" After she had finished her words, she

regretted it.

After all, she felt like she was digging her own grave. With how cunning Amelie is, she will definitely

give Bria back to me. After that, she will use the excuse of visiting Bria to mingle with Leo!

Just as she regretted her decision, she heard Amelie's voice. "Sure! Let's do it!"

"What?" Melissa thought she had heard it wrong. She looked at Amelie and frowned in confusion.

At that moment, Amelie took out her phone and opened the recorder. Then, she put her lips against her

phone and said, "My name is Amelie Dillon, and I am twenty-five years old. Today, in the presence of

Melissa Richards, who is Mrs. Alston, I swear that I have no feelings toward Leo and will never be with

him!" Then, she sent the recorder to Melissa and said, "I suppose this is enough."

During the whole process, Melissa was looking at Amelie dumbly. Amelie was fast and did it without

hesitation. She had an intimidating presence, unlike how she used to be during her stay with the Alston

Family.

Even though Amelie had recorded her words, Melissa still didn't trust her. "You aren't going to break the

promise, right?"

"You can hire a lawyer to draw the agreement, and we can go through all the legal procedures. I will

sign it immediately. Of course, it will be best if you give Leo a copy too. After all, I hate trouble."

Is she saying that Leo is the one pestering her? thought Melissa when she heard Amelie's words.
