A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 90

She’s the One I Want to Protect

Amelie turned around and looked at Leo, puzzled.

“Can I help you with something, Mr. Alston?” She had to ask after a long silence.

Hearing that, he let go of her, his gaze blurry.

“What were you trying to do by asking Jodie to expose Elyse?”

Ah, so Jodie went ahead with it? Amelie mused.

She wasn’t surprised that Jodie would go pick a fight with Elyse, but what she was surprised about was
that Leo would come to her.

“I was the one who ignored you from the start. I’ve said it again and again. Come at me if you’re
displeased about something. Don’t involve anyone unrelated. Why won’t you listen to me?”

His tone as he continued speaking was filled with rage, impatience, as well as his disgust toward her.

Amelie felt like she had suddenly understood a lot of things when she heard this.

Even if Jodie had exposed the truth about Elyse’s faking an eye problem, Leo would still choose Elyse.

Will he still think she’s the best when she kills someone one day?

“Aren’t you shameless to think that I would waste time to be displeased with you? And even if I’m upset
about something, we’re already divorced! There’s nothing between us anymore. I’m not that petty to
still let it affect me!” she sneered.

Her eyes were chilling as if she had no regard for him.



His dark eyes were fixed on her.

He had heard her say such words one too many times after the divorce, but there was no way he would
believe her when she always did the opposite as she promised.

Amelie knew Leo too well to easily know what he was thinking from the slight change of expression.

Sadness immediately washed over her when she saw the look on his face.

People who didn’t mean what he said would always think that others were as untrustworthy as them;
that was the kind of person Leo was.

“Yes, I am trying to pick a bone with her, but it’s all because of my grudge between me and her. Mr.
Alston, please don’t think too highly of yourself or look too deeply into it. It’s between me and her. It has
nothing to do with you!”

Amelie exposing Elyse couldn’t even count as revenge.

She only did what she did because she refused to have Elyse take credit for her effort.

Amelie’s expression was cold, and her eyes were even colder.

Her eyes which used to be filled with stars when she looked at him now had no place for him.

Leo didn’t know why, but his chest tightened painfully when he saw her indifferent and alienated gaze.

He was suddenly curious. “What grudge do you and Elyse have?”

She scoffed, “What grudge, you ask?”

There are too many to mention…



She began to recall certain things that happened in the past.

The corners of her mouth curled upward, and she opened her mouth to finally reveal the truth. “She
and I—”

Leo’s phone went off right then.

He took the call, and after he listened for a bit, his frown deepened. “I’m on my way!”

He then hung up his phone.

Amelie only peered at him.

Even though she wasn’t sure what the caller said or who the caller was, she knew for sure that Elyse
was the one person Leo would get so worried about.

He would even come all the way here to interrogate Amelie because of Elyse.

It was also because of Elyse that he was now rushing back.

She must have been born under a lucky star.

“I don’t care about what’s the issue between you and Elyse. She is my woman now, and I will protect
her!” Obviously not in the mood to listen to her, he threw that out indifferently before he jumped in his
car and drove off.

Amelie sneered under her breath as she watched the car drive into the distance.

Somehow, her laughter soon turned into big beads of tears that rolled down her cheeks.

She said before that she wouldn’t shed another tear for Leo.



Still, it hurt to hear him wanting to protect Elyse without a bottom line.

His words had thoroughly trampled all over her. It was as though everything she did for him was
nothing but a joke!

She had no qualms about going blind to help him, but she ended up becoming his enemy.

What else could this be, if this weren’t a joke?

…

Elyse was no happier when Amelie was heartbroken.

She was currently lying on the bed with her eyes closed, sadness written all over her beautiful face.

Seeing this, Laura sat beside her helplessly and caressed her forehead again and again. “Didn’t it all
work out well? Why are you still sad? Look, Mr. Alston is rushing over here as soon as I called him. He
is acting just like he was before by prioritizing you. It’s good news!”

“You don’t understand,” Elyse whispered.

No one truly understood her.

The more Leo worried about her, the more she felt like she was a thief who stole and enjoyed the fruit
of someone else’s labor.

A woman as dignified as herself had ended up becoming a thief.

There was no way someone of her pride and ego could accept this!



“It’s all your fault! Why did you tell me to pretend to be the cornea donor? None of this would have
happened if you didn’t come up with this crazy idea!” she growled, her voice full of resentment.

Laura immediately had a shameful look on her face as she apologized, “It’s indeed my fault. I didn’t
think that Amelie would find out and let Jodie expose you. But Elyse, hasn’t that incident come to an
end?”

She didn’t know what happened to Amelie and Leo before, and she didn’t know that Leo had mistaken
Elyse for Big Eyes all these years. It was because Elyse took Amelie’s place as ‘Big Eyes’ that she
could live such a good life.

What was more, Laura wasn’t aware that Elyse already knew everything.

Elyse forcefully covered her face.

She wanted to throw a fit.

If Laura hadn’t come up with such a stupid plan, Elyse wouldn’t have gotten exposed by Jodie, and she
wouldn’t have had to pretend to be Big Eyes.

She could have still lived her life as a proud and noble woman.

However, she knew better than to let her anger show.

She would be the one who ended up embarrassing herself further if she raised Laura’s suspicions and
prompted Laura to reveal the truth to the public.

Not even Laura, Elyse’s closest friend, knew that Amelie was Big Eyes and that Elyse was pretending
to be Big Eyes. Laura also didn’t know that Elyse took credit for someone else’s donation of corneas.



Elyse took a deep breath and looked at Laura. “I’m sorry, Laurie. I didn’t mean to lose my temper with
you. About the corneas… I know that you only wanted to help me. I was talking nonsense on the spur
of the moment. Please don’t get mad at me, Laurie…”

Her gentle voice sounded pitiful as she lightly tugged on Laura’s arm.

Of course, there was no way Laura would get angry as the woman she deemed as perfect.

She shook her head. “It’s true that it was my fault for deciding it without telling you. I could have spared
you from all this. Don’t worry. I’ll let Mr. Alston know so that there is no misunderstanding between you
and him.”

“No, there’s no need for you to do that, Laura. You did nothing wrong,” Elyse dissuaded Laura. “Just let
it be. Listen to me. We can’t let anything else happen.”

Laura only felt her guilt grow. Seeing Elyse’s reaction, she was now more determined to clear Elyse’s
name.

However, she didn’t say anything about it. She left after staying with Elyse for a little while longer.

As Elyse watched the door close, a scheming smile appeared on her beautiful and flawless face.

She knew that Laura would go to Leo and handle the rest for her.

Leo might have forgiven her because he thought she was Big Eyes, but this incident undoubtedly drove
a wedge between them.

Their relationship would only return to what it was after Laura confessed to being the culprit.

“This is a terrible, terrible idea you came up with on your own, Laura. It’s not my fault,” Elyse hummed
to herself. She thought she had drawn a clear line between love and hate.



She felt no guilt.
