A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 79

Everyone Says You’re Beautiful and Elegant

When Leo pushed the door open, he realized that someone had approached him. “Leo…” A pitiful
Elyse stood guiltily behind him, looking as though she was strengthless.

“Why aren’t you getting some rest at this hour?” Leo asked with a frown when he saw her.

Elyse staggered a little. “Are you disappointed in me? I’m sorry. I meant to help you, but I’ve almost
done you a disservice instead.”

“I’m not.” Leo shook his head. “I’m already glad that you’re willing to help.”

“Really?” Elyse looked at him with anxiety, for she was worried the man would start despising her. She
wanted to help him with this matter, which was why she offered to speak to Owen. Given her situation,
she was convinced that she needed to prove her worth to him.

Previously, she had lost to Amelie in a car racing competition, which remained a thorn in her heart that
she desperately wanted to pull out. Initially, she thought that she could successfully persuade Owen.
As such, despite knowing that Toby had secured Foxy’s help, she still volunteered to give it a try.

Be it Toby’s revelation of her ignorance of Owen’s marriage or the fact that Amelie had been invited into
the Steward Residence instead of her, she felt humiliated. She was so ashamed that she hung her
head low.

“Really.” Leo rubbed his temple, exhausted from being busy for the entire day.

Seeing his state, Elyse decided to take her leave. She took a step backward and said, “You should
probably get some rest, then. Ashton will arrive in the evening. We’re going to hang out with him.”

Leo grunted and closed the door.



While Elyse stared at the door, the softness on her face faded. When she turned around, she was
surprised to find someone gazing at her. The person was none other than Amelie. The instant she saw
Amelie, her perfect facial features contorted into a hideous expression. At that moment, she recalled
the incident of Owen refusing to see her.

In fact, Amelie was surprised to see Elyse as well. Since she was tired, she decided to return to the
hotel and get some rest, only to realize that Elyse and Leo were staying in the same hotel.
Furthermore, they were on the same floor.

Finding it amusing, she put on a faint smile. Back in their own country, they would frequently come
across each other. It never crossed her mind that they would also run into one another so often in a
foreign country. At that moment, she found their coincidental encounters ridiculous.

However, when Elyse saw her smile, she was enraged. She’s blatantly mocking me! As though losing
control of her legs, she walked toward Amelie as her stilettos clicked on the floor.

The moment Amelie opened the door, Elyse got in her way and pressed her hand against the door.

“Will you stop being cheap, Amelie? You had been pestering us back home, and now you still won’t
leave us alone in a foreign country. Have you forgotten that you’re now the woman of Starlight Media’s
boss?”

Back in their homeland, she had many friends and relatives. As such, she had to keep up her image.
Nevertheless, she practically knew no one in this place, so she didn’t even bother to pretend to be
demure. She glowered at Amelie with such enmity that it was as though her eyes were burning with
fire.

When Amelie saw the woman shifting all the blame to her, she was amused. With her arms crossed,
she wasn’t in a hurry to speak. She looked at the woman with a tilted head as though she was waiting
for her to put on her act.



Her calmness was in stark contrast to Elyse’s boorishness.

A resentful Elyse had the urge to slap Amelie in the face. She lifted her chin and tried to agitate Amelie
with rude words. “I know you still can’t get over the fact that Leo dumped you. You went looking for Mr.
Steward to derail his plan, right?”

She has some wild imagination there, doesn’t she? Does she think I have so much free time to do such
a thing? Amelie did not have any regard for the woman at all, remaining languid without a word.
However, her silence made Elyse misunderstand further. She thought that she was right.

With a haughty expression, she said, “Let me give you some advice. Since you’ve hooked up with
Starlight Media’s boss, I suggest you stop making a scene. He’s interested in you, so he has decided to
help you by using his connections to let you meet up with Mr. Steward. However, if you still keep
pestering Leo, the boss of Starlight Media will get sick of you. If he decides to dump you, there won’t be
another wealthy man who is willing to accept you.”

There were some insinuations in Elyse’s words that showed her contempt for Amelie. Regardless, her
conceitedness came across as ignorant to Amelie. In the end, she still couldn’t help but burst out
laughing.

“Miss Clayton, everyone says that you’re beautiful and elegant, but why are you behaving like a
brusque woman in front of me now? Could the Miss Clayton everyone’s talking about being different
from the one I know?” Since she has decided to humiliate me, then don’t blame me for retaliating
against her!

“You!” Elyse felt so embarrassed that her impeccable facial features started contorting.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll get some rest now.” Amelie cocked her head without a hint of politeness,
motioning for the woman to get lost.



Elyse was rendered speechless. She had come to realize that regardless of how she tried to compete
with Amelie, she would always be at a disadvantage. What’s going on? She was used to getting
compliments from others, so she couldn’t possibly put up with Amelie’s mockery. As such, instead of
leaving, she curved her lips into a sneer.

“You claimed that you’ve gotten over the fact that Leo divorced you, but your action says otherwise. If
you’ve accepted the matter, then stop making things difficult for Leo. Certainly, even if you do that, Leo
won’t think that you’re a capable person, nor will he even spare you a glance. I suggest that you give it
up at once, Miss Dillon.”

“I’d like to give you some advice as well, Miss Clayton.” Amelie rubbed the back of her neck. Initially,
she didn’t intend to be tangled up with this kind of woman. However, since the other party was
determined to be destroyed, she could only grant her wish.

She put on a faint smile and said, “Rather than overthinking things, you should probably spend more
time practicing your acting skills. After all, that’s how you make a living.” She was implying that Elyse
wasn’t a capable person at all.

Elyse was so enraged that she felt her blood rushing to her brain. She glared at Amelie with such
hatred that it was as though she wanted to gobble her up. When Amelie realized that the other woman
was powerless to fight back, she shrugged and pushed her away before entering the room.

Following that, the door slammed shut in front of Elyse, who was rooted to the spot. It wasn’t until a
long time later that she came to her senses.

What have I done? Why did I even come over here and vent my anger on Amelie? Everyone says that
I’m beautiful and elegant. I’m supposed to be a well-mannered, mild-tempered, and good-looking
woman… But just now, I had none of those qualities. I was nothing more than a boorish woman!



She couldn’t even accept what she had just done. Overwhelmed with irritation, she had the urge to
mess up her hair. It took her a lot of willpower to stop herself from doing that.

Ashton arrived at Skaynia in the evening. The four of them came together in the hotel’s restaurant, and
Toby sported a solemn expression. When they were all seated, he informed everyone about Foxy’s
message.

When Leo learned that Foxy had failed in her attempt, he furrowed his brows. Despite his silence,
everyone could tell that the failure had a huge impact on him. “Didn’t you say Foxy is on very good
terms with Mr. Steward? Everyone says that whatever request Foxy comes up with, Mr. Steward will
agree to it. We had supposedly secured the deal, so how did it turn out this way?” Elyse pretended to
be graceful again as she took a sip of her water and gave a remark nonchalantly.

Then, she covered her lips with her hand and continued, “Could it have something to do with Miss
Dillon?” The next moment, she apologized, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have speculated.”

“Miss Dillon? Are you talking about Amelie? Is she in this country as well?” Ashton exclaimed as a hint
of contempt appeared on his handsome face. “I think it must have everything to do with her! She’s such
a shameless woman. She was the one who divorced Leo, and now she’s doing such a despicable
thing. That’s outrageous!”

Ashton hated Amelie to begin with, so he was easily agitated by Elyse’s words. As such, he quickly
criticized Amelie.

“Don’t say that, Ashton. We don’t have any evidence.” Elyse pretended to calm him down, but her lips
curved into a satisfied smile behind her hand. She wanted to make everyone believe that Amelie was
the one who derailed their plan.

“Do we need any evidence at all? It isn’t the first time she has targeted you!” Ashton roared. He then
turned to Leo. “She has offended you so many times. How much longer do you want to put up with



her?”

In fact, he wasn’t concerned about Amelie foiling Leo’s plan. Instead, he hated Amelie for targeting the
woman he loved—Elyse.

Leo remained silent as he didn’t intend to respond to him. On the other hand, Toby couldn’t help
sneering.
