A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 123

The guest’s black shirt was tucked into his black pants, revealing his slim body lines. He leaned ahead,
holding a glass of red wine in his hand. And the glass reflected his beautiful, handsome face.

“Leo?” Toby took a while to recognize the man. He put his glass down and approached him. “When did
you come here? Last night? This morning? What are you doing here anyway?”

Leo stared straight into Toby’s eyes.

And Toby shivered. “Just tell me what you want. Don’t give me that look. You’re scaring me.”

Toby had a slightly feminine look and spoke softer than most men. And he was in white pajamas, a
stark contrast to Leo, who was in black. He looked like a beautiful man, while Leo had the air of a
medieval vampire, and the look in his eyes was as sharp as a falcon’s. In novels of a certain genre, a
man like Leo barging into the house of a guy like Toby would develop into some… extreme scenes.
Toby was straight, of course, but he wondered if Leo would do anything unbelievable, especially when
he was staring at him.

Leo put his glass down and stood up, his hands in his pockets. He approached Toby, but his eyes were
staring into the great distance. “I need you to look into Elaine Perez’s case. And her mother.”

“Elaine Perez?” Toby wondered who that was.

And Leo told him the gist of things.

Oh, so that’s how it is. “So, she was the donor?”

Leo nodded. “So far, yes.”



“So far? Are you suspecting something? Did they do a sloppy job?”

“No.”

“No? So, you’re….” Suspecting Elyse? He didn’t finish that sentence. He knew Elyse was a lying
wench, but saying it out loud would hurt their friendship, and he didn’t want that.

“They didn’t do a sloppy job, and the files were comprehensive. Too comprehensive. And that was their
flaw.” Everything looked retro and backed all other files up perfectly, but that was the exact reason why
he suspected that someone had doctored everything. And he wanted to find the truth. “Just look into it
for me.” He patted Toby’s shoulder.

This time, Toby nodded. “Sure thing.”

gleaming in her eyes.

Amelie stopped checking her clothes out, and she smiled at Julia. “Yeah, I know. We still have two
hours.”

Julia almost screamed. “Which is not enough for a total makeover! I specifically told you that you have
to look like a goddess during dinner!”

Amelie held a dress before her. “I’m hot. I look like a goddess no matter what I wear.”

I can’t believe her. Right, no talking, or she’s going to say something stupid again.

A moment later, Amelie picked a light-colored dress.

Julia checked it out. “Nope. Too basic.” She wanted Amelie to wear dresses of the most striking colors
so that she could attract everyone’s attention the moment she showed up.



Amelie saw through her, and she patted Julia’s shoulder. “Looks don’t determine my worth. What’s
inside my soul does. And a shimmering soul always attracts everyone’s attention no matter where they
go.”

Before Julia could say anything, someone blurted, “Good quote, Miss Dillon.”

The ladies turned around and saw Elyse standing behind them, smiling. But Julia felt like puking just
from seeing Elyse. Her face fell, but Amelie remained calm.

Elyse approached Amelie and looked at her dress. And her smile got bigger. “I applaud your courage.
Miss Dillon. Trying to attract everyone’s attention with nothing but your personality is hundreds of times
harder

than just using the best clothes money can buy.”

An indignant Julia hissed, “What is that supposed to mean? You think Amelie isn’t good enough?”

Elyse pursed her lips and looked at Julia. “You have an attractive personality, Ms. White.”

So, she’s saying I don’t? Man, she’s so childish. And even if I can’t attract anyone with my personality,
it’s none of her business. She took the dress to the counter. “Pack this up for me.”

She’s ignoring me? Elyse clenched her fists, but she remained smiling. And she followed Amelie.
“Congratulations on your marriage, Miss Dillon. Or should I say the wife of Starlight’s boss?”

Amelie marrying Starlight’s boss was Elyse’s best outcome, and she knew that. But she was jealous
that Starlight’s boss had accepted Amelie, while Leo still refused her. And she wanted to take Amelie
down a peg or

two.



“You’re not someone with an attractive personality, but at least you’ve won in life. You married the
richest man around in your first marriage, and now you’re married to yet another wealthy man. Yes,
your first marriage wasn’t happy, but your second proves otherwise.”

about any rich man. Amelie got the implication, but she only smiled and brushed the comment aside.

She’s still not affected? Elyse gnashed her teeth in fury.

Unlike her friend, Julia wouldn’t take the comment quietly. Someone’s getting it from yours truly. She
snickered. “You’re not bad yourself, Miss Clayton. Four years ago, you were the love of Mr. Alston’s life.
And now he divorced his wife for you. There’s no comparison at all. He had someone who loved him
with all her heart, and yet he still went for a cheating wench who would sleep with just about anyone.”
Julia covered her mouth. “Oh, I wasn’t talking about you, but if the shoe fits…”

Elyse went pale with anger, and then her cheeks turned red with fury. She gnashed her teeth, cursing
Julia

silently.

The staff members weren’t the kind to gossip, but they were curious. And they were undoubtedly
coming up with theories about the story between these women.

Elyse spent all these years working overseas so everyone would forget about her cheating past, but
now Julia dragged it back up, and she felt embarrassed. She turned her attention to Amelie, but she
was still not looking at them. Obviously, she was ignoring Elyse, and that fact hurt Elyse’s ego more
than what Julia said to her. She clenched her fists in fury. Damn you, Amelie! But then she smiled.
