A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 151

After Elyse pushed the door to the receptionist area open, she didn’t hesitate to make herself
comfortable. She leaned over and placed Amelie’s phone on the table before she gave Amelie a
provocative look.

“Miss Dillon, you can ignore me. But Leo will never see you without my consent,” Elyse said as she sat
cross- legged, totally portraying the attitude of being the Alstons’ head of the house. She didn’t even
gesture for Amelie to take a seat either.

Amelie lowered her head slightly before she said, “Miss Clayton, I never knew you were so capable to
the point that you could control Leo’s life even before marriage.”

These words that escaped Amelie’s lips sounded like a compliment. Yet, to Elyse’s ears, they sounded
extraordinarily harsh and even carried a hint of ridicule.

Elyse had to force herself to uncurl her fingers, which she hid on the other side several times in a row
to maintain her graceful demeanor. “Miss Dillon, why don’t you talk about why you’re here looking for
Leo?”

“This matter is between Leo and me. It would be better for us to solve it ourselves.” Amelie looked at
Elyse and slightly leaned forward. Although she didn’t bother excessively expressing herself, she
succeeded in exuding a condescending aura.

Elyse instantly felt inferior.

As soon as she said those words to Elyse, she grabbed her phone and intended to leave.

“Amelie!” Once again, Elyse stopped her. Bang! She even rushed ahead of Amelie and shut the door
tightly in front of Amelie.



Elyse became highly anxious and crisis-stricken after she learned that Amelie couldn’t be emotionally
involved with the boss of Starlight Media.

Then, as though she wanted to comfort herself somehow, she pressed her back against the door for
stability. Still, she felt that doing so wasn’t enough, for she later pressed both hands on the door

At last, an angry look was visible on Amelie’s face. She frowned and sharply questioned, “Elyse, what
are you trying to do?!”

Elyse hastily wracked her mind of the possible reasons for Amelie looking for Leo instead of answering
her straightaway. “You’re here today because of Bria’s custody, aren’t you? Leo has told me he will
undoubtedly file a lawsuit seeking court intervention. However, he’s very busy, so he has long entrusted
this matter to Mrs. Alston and me, asking us to handle it ourselves. Therefore, it’s pointless for you to
go to him, for he is too busy to see you,” Elyse said, thinking it would anger Amelie.

Amelie stood still and stared Elyse down, making the latter feel unsure and couldn’t help sizing her up
in

secret.

She’s not saying anything, and her poker face is so good that I can’t tell what she’s thinking. So, it’s
impossible for me to know whether she believes my

words.

Nonetheless, Elyse tried her best to remain confident. “Leo has already given me the video of you
losing

The word ‘video’ punched Amelie hard in the chest. Her blood instantly froze in her veins.



That’s right! Leo secretly captured evidence against me when I made a bet with him. How can I still
expect any form of kindness from him?

“So?” she intoned coldly. “Miss Clayton, do you plan on becoming a stepmother?”

Elyse pursed her lips, smiled, and revealed her bow-shaped lips tinged with dark red lipstick, which
made her look enchanting and dazzling. “I love Leo. What does it matter if I sacrifice a little when he is
willing to shower me with all his love?”

Even though she tried her best to show off, a trace of melancholy silently rippled in her heart when she
talked about how Leo was ‘pampering’ her. In fact, she felt so guilty that she didn’t even dare to look
into Amelie’s

eyes.

Fortunately for Elyse, Amelie wasn’t looking at her face when she said those words. Otherwise, Amelie
would be able to notice something odd about her expression.

“Plus, I don’t want to get pregnant this early in my career. Bria’s presence can relieve Mrs. Alston’s
worries about wanting a grandchild, and it won’t put pressure on me, either, Leo has also considered
this factor. That’s why he is adamant about taking Bria back.” Perhaps, too many lies had even
managed to convince Elyse herself to think that it was the truth, for superiority and happiness were
written all over her face when she tried to bar Amelie from meeting Leo.

She looked at Amelie with a triumphant smirk, which grew even more profound after she noticed
Amelie silently balling her fists in anger.

Amelie has trampled me under her feet so many times! This time! This time, I can finally take it out on
her!



Then, she tried her best to maintain a neutral look on her face as she brushed off some imaginary lint
on her clothes. “This is beneficial to you too, Miss Dillon, for you don’t have to worry about my child
stealing Bria’s

favor.”

Amelie smiled, but her smile was as cold as ice. “I’m sorry. My daughter is not something or someone
that you two can use as a buffer. Miss Clayton, your pregnancy is none of my business. But my
daughter will only be mine and no one else’s!”

“If that is the case, then we really have to solve this through the legal route. It will be pretty bad for you
if that happens, then,” Elyse said in a deliberately provocative tone.

“That doesn’t concern you. So, there’s no need for you to say anything else.” Since Amelie no longer
had the intention to continue this conversation, she gestured her chin in the direction of the door and
asked, “Can you open the door now?”

Elyse frankly stepped aside when she saw that she had achieved her goal. “Miss Dillon, I still want to
give you one piece of advice-a wise person submits to fate. Don’t let Bria become a victim for the sake
of your

resentment.”

Amelie stopped slightly in her tracks. Nevertheless, she said nothing and walked away with her head
held high.

Behind her, Elyse, who had tried her best to remain elegant, abruptly bit down hard on the bottom of
her lips.



Go ahead and fight! It will be best if you two can fight to the bitter end.I will have a chance to win over
Leo again as long as you two keep fighting.

Two minutes later, Elyse gracefully walked out of the room. Her entire demeanor screamed grace, her
face was as immaculate as ever, and her eyes were as calm as a lake.

When Elyse saw the receptionist, she even greeted her warmly. “Thank you for your hard work.”

“N-No, not at all.” The lady was so flattered that she started stammering when she saw Elyse being so
friendly.

Naturally, Elyse noticed this. So, she pursed her lips before she said, “I suddenly have some business
to attend to, so I won’t be going upstairs. Please don’t inform Leo or anyone that I’ve been here.”

“Sure. Sure. I understand, Miss Clayton. If Mr. Alston knows that you came and left, he will definitely
feel sorry for you. Miss Clayton, Mr. Alston really cares about you.” The employee looked at Elyse
enviously. At this moment, she wished so badly that she was born slightly prettier and her status was
slightly higher so she could take Elyse’s place.

Elyse nodded in satisfaction, for this was precisely the outcome she wanted.

By the time she had left, her assistant immediately came up to her. However, she couldn’t help but cast
a glance in the direction where Amelie had gone. “That woman… Isn’t she the woman in the video that
you asked me to film yesterday? She-”

Before the assistant could finish her sentence, Elyse turned and glared at her sharply-her gaze was full
of warning.

Her assistant quickly covered her mouth and silenced herself.



Meanwhile, Leo wasn’t looking too hot in his office.

Laura was standing right before him.

She was suspended for some time due to her presumptuous actions. Alas, she was rehired during this
time for professional activity.

After all, Laura was still fairly remarkable in terms of competency, which was why Leo decided to hire
her again.

Still, Laura didn’t dare to freely make her own decisions after that incident. At this moment, she looked
at Leo rather reverently as she stood in front of him.

She immediately informed Leo after she learned that Melissa had gone to Amelie with a lawyer earlier.

“What should we do?” Laura inquired.

Leo furrowed his well-defined brows so tightly to the point that wrinkles started to form. Finally, he
dismissed her with a wave of his hand and said, “I will handle this matter myself. You may go ahead
and attend to your

work.”

When Laura heard Leo’s reply, she simply nodded and left without asking any further questions.

At this moment, Leo, who was initially reviewing the document, rested his fingers on the keyboard and
remained motionless for a long while. His eyes, however, turned to look at his phone placed at the
corner of

the table.



In his mind, he thought, Should I call her and explain that it wasn’t my idea?I don’t know what’s going
on with me. But after seeing how she showed a responsible approach toward Bria, I can no longer fight
with her for

Bria’s custody.

As he thought of that, he stretched out his slender fingers and grabbed his phone. Yet, it rang when he
was about to dial Amelie’s number.

This was a call from Toby.

“There is a possibility that Elaine really isn’t the girl you’re looking for. I’ve learned some updates
regarding that matter.”

Leo’s already frowning face deepened upon hearing Toby’s report. His heart pounded wildly, and his
facial expression turned solemn.

He stayed silent for five seconds before finally gritting his teeth and answering, “I’ll be right over!”
