A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 81

Marry Her if It Upsets You So Much!

After that, the pair said nothing until the golf ball entered the last cup, where Owen and Elyse were
waiting.

“Not bad!” Owen gave the two a thumbs-up.

Though Leo won the game, Amelie’s score wasn’t far off from his.

Meanwhile, Elyse jogged toward Leo after taking a subtle glance at Amelie. “Look at you. You’re
drenched in sweat.”

She pulled a towel out to wipe his sweat, but he took it from her and wiped the sweat himself before
she could even do anything.

“What are you standing there for? Hand Amelie a bottle of chilled water,” ordered Owen to his assistant
behind him.

Leo’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat when he found Owen smiling amiably at Amelie. It surprised
him that his ex-wife was popular with the gents.

First was Blake and Jamie, and now, it was Owen. All of them were extremely warm and enthusiastic
toward her.

Meanwhile, Owen and Amelie had already walked out side by side. Since they had only bumped into
each other, it naturally wasn’t necessary to chat at length.

On the other hand, Leo was still deep in his thoughts when someone held his arm.



“Leo, I had a pretty long chat with Mr. Steward just now. He’s rather amiable and not as aloof as we
imagined him to be,” Elyse chirped. “I even told him about your performance over the last few years as
well as your plan in detail. He seems to be very interested in it.”

She might not have explicitly said it, but it seemed like she was waiting for him to shower her with
praises.

However, Leo only uttered a ‘thanks’ before striding away. He was never one to praise anyone, after all.

Meanwhile, Owen and Amelie, who were drinking the chilled water inattentively, walked side by side.

Though she had worn a sun hat, the sun was still shining pretty brightly, so sweat still gathered on her
fair face. Even droplets of sweat were hanging on her lashes, and her eyes were glistening because of
the sweat.

“It’s him, isn’t it?” Owen asked out of nowhere, leading Amelie to look at him with slightly furrowed
brows.

“He’s the man you used to love but later left, isn’t he?” He rephrased his question.

“How did you know?!” Amelie’s bewilderment instantly turned into shock, and she couldn’t help
recollecting closely. But after much thought, she still couldn’t figure out how she had given it away.

Owen said nothing. How could someone like him not be able to tell when he had experienced most
things in life and had also been deeply hurt by someone he loved?!

Amelie figured it out very quickly as well, and she nodded with drooped eyelids. “It’s him.”

“Why still help him when you two have already divorced?” He gazed at her gravely while standing in
front of his car.



At that, she smiled with pursed lips. “Actually, I’m not helping him. I owe someone a debt, and he
happens to be that person’s collaborator.”

Owen nodded and said nothing more after that. Then, he entered the vehicle while Amelie bid him
farewell right outside.

Lo and behold, Owen’s car had just left when another car pulled up, and out came Ashton and Toby.

As usual, Ashton’s gaze at Amelie was one of nothing but abhorrence, looking like he had spotted the
most disgusting thing in the world.

Of course, he hadn’t forgotten to pinch his nose as he walked in her direction. “What is the meaning of
this? How can your golf course welcome just about any low-class people?!”

While he directed his words to the staff who welcomed him, it was a no-brainer that he was attacking
Amelie.

As awkwardness filled the air, there was nothing the staff could do but wear an obsequious smile.

On the other hand, Amelie played dumb and even pretended not to have seen him as she didn’t even
spare him a glance, continuing with whatever she was doing.

Toby got out of the car a little later than Ashton, and he couldn’t help chastising his friend when he
heard such awful words. “If you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all, Ashton!”

“What? Does it upset you? If it upsets you so much, just marry her!” Ashton was used to having things
his way, so he never behaved civilized outside, speaking whatever came to his mind.

Toby, on the other hand, couldn’t be bothered by him anymore. He glared at him before approaching
Amelie. “I didn’t think I’d see you here, Miss Dillon.”



“Is it so surprising?!” Ashton interjected rudely and condescendingly. “She’s anywhere Leo is
nowadays. I bet she either wants to disgust Elyse and Leo or break up the two.”

Amelie hadn’t wanted to stoop to the mad dog’s level, but seeing that he wouldn’t give it a rest, she
couldn’t put up with it anymore. “You’re also everywhere Leo Alston and Elyse Clayton are. I bet you
want to disgust or break them up as well.”

“You—” Livid with rage, the veins on Ashton’s forehead throbbed.

Nonetheless, Amelie wasn’t the least bit intimidated. She gazed plainly at him with a half-smile, making
Ashton guiltier by the second, for he had an embarrassing sense of being read.

“Bullsh*t! I’m not you!” roared the man, suddenly hitting the roof. “Don’t use your sinister thinking to
guess my thoughts, you f*cking psycho!”

Amelie suddenly felt sorry for Ashton, who was ruffled up and could only use anger to cover up his
embarrassment.

The man was head over heels for Elyse, yet he had to feign nobleness and righteousness.

She looked up and happened to find Leo and Elyse approaching them side by side.

Wanting nothing to do with them, she ignored Ashton and walked in a different direction.

The caddie had gone to grab her car, which was parked elsewhere, and it would only arrive in another
few minutes.

If she had known that she would bump into people she didn’t want to meet, she’d rather walk to her car.

Now, she just wanted to stay as far away as possible.



“Ashton, Mr. Walsh,” Elyse chirped, seemingly elated. “Guess who we bumped into—Mr. Steward!” At
that, she jogged toward them and couldn’t help bragging, “Mr. Steward was really nice, and he’s not as
aloof as people put it. I analyzed your proposal in detail with him, as well as the pros and cons of the
collaboration. He seems to be interested in it.”

“You’re really something, Elyse!” Being Elyse’s brainless fanboy, Ashton praised her the next second,
putting the young woman in an even better mood.

“The way I see it, Mr. Steward’s policy of never collaborating with a Capland merchant isn’t forever. He
just hadn’t found the person who could convince him.”

She was forever mindful of her fair lady image, so when she was relating, she did her best to suppress
her excitement and spoke in a completely rational and analytic tone.

Meanwhile, Toby said nothing but only snorted icily after hearing her bull and went up to Amelie again,
wanting nothing to do with Elyse. “Where are you heading? Do you need a lift?”

“Thanks, but I’m good.” Amelie appreciated his gesture very much. However, he and Ashton arrived in
one car, and she genuinely wanted nothing to do with a dumb*ss like Ashton.

Leo, on the other hand, stood far away the entire time. There were so many people around, yet he
looked isolated, and it wasn’t until Toby approached Amelie that he finally looked up.

He locked his gaze on the two with furrowed brows.

Back when Toby said he was unworthy of Amelie, he merely took it as a joke, but now, Toby seemed to
be exceptionally close with her.

Elyse’s eyes were constantly on Leo, and when she found his gaze fixed on the pair, her heart skipped
a beat as her nails dug into her palms. What is up with Leo? Why is he paying more and more attention



to Amelie?!

Since returning, the young woman had become extremely susceptible, not to mention Leo only had
eyes for Amelie when there were so many people around. How humiliating was it for her?! This won’t
do. I have to bring Leo’s attention back to me. He can only look at me and only me!
