A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 156

Ashton was also confused. “He asked me about Elaine just now, and I admitted to it, as we had
discussed

before. After that, he just left.”

Elyse immediately frowned, her eyebrows tightly knitted,

Her heart also began to thump wildly.

“What questions did he ask?” she asked anxiously.

Ashton relayed the questions as they were.

He had just finished speaking when Elyse trembled in anger, saying, “How can you be so stupid? If Leo
asked you, that means he was just guessing. He wasn’t completely sure whether Elaine was someone
we made up or not. By admitting it so easily, you’re confessing everything on your own!”

Elyse looked at the idiot of a man in front of her. If he didn’t have the Lowe Family backing him, she
would have slapped him long ago.

Ashton had always thought he stood out and was better than everyone else.

When he heard Elyse’s words, his expression went stiff. He couldn’t explode in anger, so he could only
say, “Even if I confessed to it, I would be the only one at fault. You don’t have to worry.”

“How can I not be worried?” Elyse felt annoyed when Ashton was still being ignorant. “Back then, we
talked to Leo together. Do you think that Leo, with his intelligence, wouldn’t be able to figure out that I
was involved as well?”



She had discreetly told Ashton to take the blame before, but that was just in case of emergencies. She
didn’t think he would admit to it so quickly and reveal everything on his own accord!

It was only then that Ashton realized his mistake. He scratched his head in regret, then felt a little mad
as he said, “How dare Leo play tricks on me! Geez!”

Elyse glared at him in disgust.

Nothing was going right tonight, and now that Ashton had exposed the matter with Elaine on his own,
Leo would hate Elyse even more.

Was their breakup truly set in stone?

Extremely annoyed, she was no longer in the mood to entertain Ashton. She turned around and got
into the

car.

Elyse was still too irked to check the screen, so she tossed her phone aside.

She rested her hand on her forehead as she leaned against the window, closing her eyes and staying
silent.

Behind the wheel, Ashton had been quiet all this while. When he noticed she wasn’t answering the
phone, he turned around and took the phone to take a glance. “It’s a call from Mrs. Alston. Are you sure
you’re not going

to pick it up?”

It was only then that Elyse opened her eyes. There was a look of surprise in her eyes as she glanced
at the



screen.

She proceeded to take the phone and place it beside her ear. “Hello?”

“Elyse, I spotted you just now. Did you come to the Alston Residence?” On the other end of the line,
Melissa’s voice was filled with a natural sense of superiority. She spoke in a high-and-mighty tone even
when she was

talking to Elyse.

Elyse hated it when Melissa spoke in that tone, especially now that Leo was breaking up with her and
cruelly exposing her.

She was about to say something rude when she remembered that Ashton was still around. She said in
a roundabout way, “I did have a quick chat with Leo outside the house.”

Melissa skipped the nonsense and said, “Wait for me at a spot 2 miles away from the Alston
Residence. Let’s

meet up.

Elyse didn’t know why Melissa wanted to see her.

Remembering that Melissa was never friendly to her, she was about to decline coldly when Melissa
continued, “I want to make a deal with you.”

With that, she hung up without waiting for Elyse’s response.

Elyse’s dull eyes shimmered a little. In the end, she told Ashton to pull up at the spot Melissa spoke of.

“Park the car a mile away, and don’t come here unless I call for you,” she ordered coldly after getting
out of the



car.

Ashton looked at her in worry. “It’s not safe for you to be here alone. Let me accompany you.

“No need!”

Her expression was cold and stubborn.

Since Melissa wanted to talk to her, the topic must be something outsiders were not allowed to hear.

Ashton looked at her for a while. When he thought about the mistake he committed that night, he
scratched

his head.

In the end, he still left like he was told to.

Elyse waited by the road for a few minutes before the Alston Family’s car slowly drove up to her.

The driver got out of the car first.

Then, he jogged to the back seat and respectfully opened the door.

Melissa was dressed meticulously, just like a queen.

She held her bag with both hands and got out of the car in the most elegant way possible.

The only thing lacking was that she had no worshippers.

”

A few years ago, Elyse was treated coldly by Melissa, so she didn’t have much of a good impression of
the



latter.

Seeing her grand entrance, Elyse simply looked on coldly.

There wasn’t even a hint of warmth in her eyes.

When Melissa saw Elyse, she was expressionless as well.

In the night, her high heels clicked crisply against the ground as she walked up to Elyse, then she
straightened

up even further.

Not wishing to be intimidated, Elyse straightened her neck a little.

The two seemed to be comparing heights, competing in secret.

Melissa hated Elyse’s attitude of competing with her. She let out a snort of disdain and withheld her
comment as she said, “I’ve already filed a lawsuit with the court to fight Amelie for the custody of Bria.
Leo doesn’t know about this yet; I fear that if he did, he would definitely stop me. So, I hope you can
think of a way to get him to leave for a few days, and then he can come back after everything settles.”

Elyse was even more annoyed when she heard that Melissa would be fighting Amelie for custody of the
child.

Of course, she kept an eye on this matter in the dark.

So, she knew about this a long time ago.

She felgned ignorance as she put on a slightly surprised expression.

Melissa smiled.



The meaning behind her smile extended far beyond the surface.

With just a smile, she signaled to Elyse that she knew all sorts of things that Elyse wouldn’t want
anyone to

know.

Elyse felt uneasy all of a sudden, and the expression on her beautiful face darkened and turned cold.

“You’re a smart person, Miss Clayton. You should know how this will benefit you. You’re not helping me;
you’re helping yourself,” Melissa said meaningfully.

Elyse’s long eyelashes stopped fluttering as a dull light flashed across her eyes.

Melissa was right.

She truly could benefit from this.

As soon as the two faced each other in court, it would mean that they were total enemies.

They simply must fight each other!

Even if she couldn’t get Leo, she didn’t want him to be with the woman who destroyed her happiness!

Elyse didn’t think that she was to blame at all. She still attributed the failure of her relationship 4 years
ago to

Amelie’s interjection.

“All right, deal!” She nodded readily.

Melissa nodded in satisfaction.



She got back into the car with her regal steps, then left.

Elyse stood under the tree for some time, then dialed Leo’s number. “Leo, I agree to the breakup, but
can you accompany me to Quinn Town? I want to spend a few days there, and I’m setting out tonight.”

On the other end of the line, Leo was holding his phone with one hand while sticking the other hand in
his

pocket.

His gaze was dark as he looked into the distance.

He was standing in the study, and documents were piled on the desk along with a number of tasks to
be completed on the computer.

“Sure.” Still, he opened his mouth to speak the word.

However, because of their history, even if he didn’t like her anymore, he was still willing to go with her.

A few minutes later, Leo had his work sorted out as he drove and arrived in front of Elyse.

Elyse pursed her lips and opened the door to the passenger seat, sitting in it.

Leo glanced at her silently, then started the car.

The car drove along the intersection.

Someone’s phone started ringing. It was Leo’s.

He slowed down and took out his phone, then looked down at the screen.



A hand suddenly covered the screen, blocking it from view so that he couldn’t see the number
displayed.

“Leo, I don’t want you to answer random calls!” Elyse looked Leo in the eye as she spoke in a spoiled
manner.

Leo looked up at her.

With their current relationship, she had no right to make such requests.

Elyse couldn’t care less as she plucked the phone from his hand. “You said you’ll accompany me, so I
want you to focus on accompanying me for the next few days. Ignore everyone else!”

At the end of her sentence, she added pleadingly, “Okay?”

Leo stared at his phone as he thought for a while.

In the end, he nodded. “Okay.”

If she hadn’t accompanied him all those years, he wouldn’t have become who he was today. This little
bit of sacrifice was nothing in comparison.

Seeing that he had agreed, Elyse swiftly turned off his phone and tossed it into her bag.

On the other end, the expression of the person holding the phone gradually sank…
