A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 102

Did You Fall for Me?

“I know you don’t like Amelie. She’s an ungrateful woman, so she isn’t qualified to get married into our
family, but regardless of that, we must take the child back!” Melissa announced firmly.

Jodie nodded in agreement. “You must bring me back my pride, Leo!”

Without responding, Leo turned around and left the room.

Watching his anxious back, Melissa and Jodie sighed in relief.

Honestly, the two of them didn’t fancy Bria at all. They merely treated her as the daughter of a b*tch like
Amelie. However, she was a part of their family, after all. Hence, she should stay with them.

“By the way, Mom, I heard some strange rumors recently saying that Amelie is very powerful. Someone
has seen her in some racetrack.” Since Jodie was always out all day, she learned about rumors this
way. She shared with Melissa what she heard today.

“I even heard some saying that Leo’s recent contract with a big boss from Skaynia has something to do
with her. Do you think it’s credible?”

At the mention of that, Melissa snickered in disdain. “Amelie stayed with us for four years previously.
Don’t you know what kind of person she is?”

Jodie brushed her hair as she recalled her memories. She was initially agitated and uncomfortable after
hearing those rumors, but she felt relieved when she remembered how transient Amelie was back
when she stayed in Alston Residence.

“That’s true. If Amelie was really powerful, she would have flaunted it in front of us long ago. Perhaps
the rumors are just a trick she set up to deceive us and force us to look up to her!”



“With her ability, I reckon she can only rely on that beauty called Julia White for a short time. Once she
leaves Julia, she will be nothing!” Melissa scrunched her brows in distaste, obviously despising the idea
of engaging in a topic about Amelie. Turning around, she went back to the couch and drank her
collagen drink.

When Jodie heard the mention of Julia, she instantly recalled the offer Julia made to her about taking
her in as an anchor in Starlight Media.

What a great opportunity!

She wondered if Julia was being sincere or if she was just trying to piss Elyse off!

Since Jodie was a major in mass communication, she was well aware of the status of an anchor.

Many entrepreneurs looked up to a capable anchor, let alone their status.

These days, many celebrities would change their careers to be anchors.

If she could become someone like Julia White and be recognized and even looked up to wherever she
went, wasn’t it better than being a star?

Most importantly, Blake Gareth belonged to Starlight Media!

This was also one of the most important reasons why she wanted to join the company.

…

At 6.00PM, Amelie arrived home to have dinner with Bria.

While chatting with Amelie, Bria was learning eating utensil etiquette. Her movements were a little
clumsy.



Dinner time was usually their bonding time when Bria would tell her what happened in school.

Since returning from Quinn Town, she had been telling her classmates about Steven’s shoemaking
skills every day. The students admired Steven so much that they wanted to play with her.

Bria became a little star in their class, and even the teachers praised her as a lively and cheerful child.

Before her mother’s divorce, Bria never dared to speak loudly in front of others due to long-term
oppression, and she always acted timidly.

Watching the changes her daughter was experiencing now made Amelie happy.

“Mommy.” After telling Amelie about some interesting incidents in school, Bria called out to her mother
as if recalling something. “It’s so strange that people have been coming to school and asking the
teacher to pluck my hair. Just today, they plucked my hair twice!”

Hearing that, Amelie stopped eating and looked at Bria’s hair. “Did your teacher tell you why they
wanted your hair?”

Bria shook her head. “No.”

Although she didn’t know the reason Amelie’s eyebrows suddenly sank, she somehow had a bad
feeling.

“Are the people who wanted your hair people you know?”

Bria shook her head once again. “They were in a room. My teacher went to give them my hair after
plucking them. I couldn’t see their faces, but I thought one of them sounded like… Aunt Jodie.”

Jodie Alston?

Amelie realized things weren’t as simple.



However, she didn’t want to scare Bria, so she finished dinner without showing any hint of
exaggeration.

Bria took the initiative to clear the plates. She fished out her phone and intended to run an
investigation.

On the other hand, Leo was leaning against the backseat of the car with his eyes lowered. His dark
orbs were as calm as the dead sea, and there was no hint of warmth in them.

He was still clutching that piece of paper, but it was now heavily crumpled.

The scrunched paper itself resembled his heart and his ego.

Leo found the whole situation funny.

He couldn’t believe he was tricked by Amelie!

After laughing at himself, he felt depressed all of a sudden as if being suddenly thrown into an abyss
with no end.

The fact that Amelie was willing to bear the infamy of cheating in marriage to draw the line with him
showed how determined she was to stay away from him!

It should’ve been good news, but he felt as if the air in his lungs was sucked out of his chest. He felt
suffocated!

Was she that eager to be with the boss of Starlight Media?

“We’re here, Mr. Alston,” the driver reminded him in a low voice.

Leo retrieved his senses and pushed the door open to get out.



The moment his feet landed on the ground, he noticed a figure of a woman and a child running outside.

Leo strode to them and stopped them before they could board the car.

Amelie’s body went rigid as she turned her head abruptly.

Her heart skipped a beat when she made out that it was Leo.

She found out that Bria’s hair was collected for a DNA test.

That would mean Bria’s identity had been exposed.

Amelie knew that someone would come looking for them soon, so she planned to bring Bria away for
two days.

Sure enough, Leo came in time to stop them from escaping.

Leo stared at her with gloomy eyes, taking in the anxiety evident in her eyes and her tightly pursed lips.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Amelie’s gaze flickered as she also took in his sinister look as well as the piece of paper he was
holding in his hand.

She gasped and shoved Bria behind her instinctively.

Leo glanced at Bria, who was hunching and peeking her little head out to look at him timidly.

The emotions in her eyes only consisted of wariness and alienation toward him.

Those emotions broke Leo’s heart. At the same time, he felt his temples throbbing with anger.



He then spoke, “Bria is my child. Who gave you the right to hide her identity at will?”

Amelie now realized that there was no point in escaping anymore now that he had discovered the truth.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the anxiety in her heart.

When she faced him once again, there was only coldness in her orbs.

Her emotionless gaze mercilessly pierced through Leo. He could no longer find the tenderness there
once was in her eyes.

He felt as if being sliced by a sharp knife everywhere her eyes landed on him.

The pain was unbearable!

“So what if she’s your child?” Amelie’s crisp voice sounded in his ears.

She put on a half-smile, but it was obvious that she was distancing herself from him.

“My child should grow up in my Alston Family! Amelie Dillon, Bria must come home with me!” Leo
made a decisive decision.

This decision was not made on how the Alston Family had been the target of mockery.

What hurt him most was that she displayed affection with another man in public by using her child.

“My child isn’t a tool for you to show off your current relationship!” he reminded her coldly.

“Since when did you see me using Bria as a tool, Mr. Alston? Are you upset to watch me and Bria
being happy with another man? Are you jealous? Did you fall for me?” Amelie tilted her head and
questioned him deliberately.
