A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 147

Instead of answering her questions, Leo whisked out a card from his pocket. “There’s 10 million in this
card, and you can spend it as you like. In addition, if you need help in the future, I’ll do my best to help
you.”

After speaking, he didn’t hang around longer and walked away.

Without a word, Elyse watched as his back became smaller and smaller. Then, she stared at the bank
card in her hand, trembling all over like a leaf in the wind.

Is Leo… cutting off all ties with Big Eyes with money?

Tears streamed down from her eyes again, but in the next second, she started laughing hysterically.

“Amelie Dillon, so what if you’re Big Eyes? As long as Leo wants to leave, he can abandon you all the
same!”

When Leo reached home, Melissa was still there, and she immediately went to him..

“I saw the news, Leo. And it’s proven it’s not suitable for Bria to stay there. When are you taking her
home?”

Frowning, he massaged the spot between his brows with his slender fingers. “Bria’s not coming back.
In the future, don’t do anything to her and Amelie!”

The impatience on Melissa’s face froze at his words, and she couldn’t help but study him quietly, trying
to guess if he had already found out that she was in cahoots with Elyse.



When he didn’t say anything, her heartbeat gradually returned to normal, and her face turned solemn.
“Elliot has already made his statement. Why are you still letting Bria stay with Amelie? What exactly do
you mean?”

“I mean it literally.” Not in the mood to be bothered with her, he added, “I’m tired. If there’s nothing else,
I’m going upstairs to rest.”

Melissa wholeheartedly thought that Elyse’s smart plan would work and waited patiently for him to bring
Bria home so that she could salvage a little of her lost dignity. However, now, not only did he not bring
her back, he even seemed like he wasn’t going to fight for her, and this was the last straw for Melissa.

Ignoring the fact that he was tired, she raised her voice at him, saying, “Previously, you thought that I
wanted to take Bria back for the sake of my face, but it has now been proven that Elliot and Amelie
don’t want her. As her grandmother, how can I turn a blind eye to this?”

Taking a few steps toward Leo, she gulped and softened her tone. “I’m doing this for Bria’s good, and
she can only lead a normal life if she returns to the Alstons! Right now, Amelie is having a complicated
relationship with the boss of Starlight Media while hanging out with other men. Even Toby is hanging
out with her now.

Hearing this, Leo couldn’t help but think of Toby’s unconcealed feelings for Amelie, and his chest
tightened uncomfortably.

When he was silent, Melissa thought she had convinced him, and some joy lit up on her face. “That’s
why you should bring Bria home as soon as possible. Then, she doesn’t have to suffer so much from
Amelie’s poison. Don’t worry. Once she’s back, I’ll treat her well and nurture her to be a top socialite.”

Snapping back to his senses, Leo was too tired to explain that Elliot was a fake character and merely
said, “I’ve asked Bria, and she said that she doesn’t want to come back.”



“What does a child know?” Melissa snapped immediately. “Bring her back, and she’ll have feelings for
home if given time. Leo, she’s still a child who doesn’t know how to differentiate right from wrong, and
neither does she know which life is good for her. As adults, we have to be her gatekeepers.”

Melissa ended earnestly, and Leo couldn’t help but smirk sarcastically when he heard her saying that
the adults had to be the gatekeepers.

His expression was reflected in her eyes, and her heart thumped loudly as she knew what was on his
mind.

He’s silently blaming me, isn’t he? she thought. Did being the so-called gatekeeper as an adult include
throwing him to Quinn Town when he lost sight?

This was the toughest thing she had to admit to him, and she lost the confidence to speak more as she

intertwined her fingers restlessly.

In the end, he didn’t bring up the old score with her and said, “I believe that Amelie will raise Bria well.”

For some unknown reason, when he thought of Amelie jumping into the box filled with the eels that
terrified

her the most without hesitation and the things she said, he was ready to believe her.

After he finished speaking, he didn’t give Melissa a chance to argue further and went upstairs straight
away, leaving her alone downstairs to stomp her feet repeatedly.

Early in the morning, Amelie dropped Bria off at school and drove herself to Starlight Media.

Recently, there were several projects at hand, and they were major innovative projects, so she didn’t
dare to slack off and immediately got to work. By the time she could catch a break, it was already noon.



Fortunately, Julia’s assistant, Lena, was an attentive person and had prepared lunch. As Amelie rarely
came into the office before this and didn’t manage the actual operations, she didn’t recruit an assistant
for herself.

However, now that the company was going to make big moves, and she would be in the office more
frequently. she figured she shouldn’t share an assistant with Julia much longer.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Someone rapped on her door, and she raised her head. “Come in.”

Lena walked in and informed her, “Miss Dillon, a woman, who goes by the surname of Richards, is
outside and

wants to meet you.”

Richards? Amelie paused for a second and racked her brain, but she couldn’t recall having an
appointment with anyone named Richards.

Reading her mind, Lena quickly added, “She didn’t have an appointment, but she said that she’s Bria’s
grandmother and has something important to speak with you.”

Since Bria often showed up at the company, it was only natural that Lena knew her.

When Amelie heard it was Melissa outside, her face cringed a little. What is she doing here?

Knowing that she would only bring trouble, Amelie was worried that she would affect her appetite and
said,

Please attend to her for a while.”



Then, she continued eating. After she finished her food, she put away the lunch box before going to the
visitor lounge.

In the lounge, Melissa leaned sideways into a single couch with her legs crossed proudly and her
palms stacked on the armrest. Frowning, she appeared annoyed as she said, “What’s going on? This
company doesn’t have any hospitality at all. I’ve been waiting for so long. Why isn’t Amelie Dillon out
yet?”

Although she didn’t mention anything else, it could be seen from her face that she was filled with
indifference and contempt for this company and Lena.

She carried a lofty stance, looking high and mighty like a queen, waiting for someone to bow down to
her. Behind her, a middle-aged man dressed in dark clothes stood with his back straight, and this man
was none other than the lawyer Lena had seen the last time in the cafe.

“I’m sorry, but Miss Dillon is busy. Furthermore, you didn’t make an appointment before this, so you’ll
have to wait a little longer,” Lena said politely.

“How big is this company? Are appointments even needed?” Melissa surveyed the surroundings. As
she didn’t know the operation mode of Starlight Media, she reckoned that Lena was bluffing when she
saw the small space around her.

“Do you have any idea how precious our time is? Twenty-three minutes of our time has been wasted!”
Henry checked the watch on his wrist and tapped at it loudly.

Pursing her lips into a smile, Amelie then walked into the room. “If you don’t want to waste your time,
you should have made an appointment beforehand. The management staff’s time is precious and can’t
be wasted on

“Well…” The lawyer whose name was mentioned turned scarlet from his cheeks to his ears.



Pacing next to Lena, Amelie patted her shoulder. “Leave this to me.

Lena nodded but couldn’t stop herself from casting Amelie a worried look. After spending a few minutes
in the same room with these people, she was already at the end of her patience. Could Amelie deal
with them?

However, as an employee, she was in no position to say much, so she turned to leave.

After she left the room, Amelie turned to Melissa. “How may I help you, Mrs. Alston?”
