A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 172

A conversation between Elyse and Ashton immediately came from the voice recorder. It was the part
where Elyse encouraged Ashton to help her that day!

“How… How did you become like this?” Laura’s eyes were full of pain and regret.

Elyse’s eyes were wide open. She couldn’t believe it at all! She never imagined that someone recorded
what she said! It is over; I’m completely finished!

Extreme panic caused her to cover her mouth tightly. She could barely stand as her legs were shaking.
In fact, she could fall at any time!

Besides, she was now aware of one thing-just now, Leo didn’t intend to obtain any results at all but
simply wanted to force her to admit her mistake!

He had been treating her like she was a fool.

“Leo, you b’stard!” she yelled hysterically, covering her face in embarrassment.

Leo did not stop walking away because of her yelling. At this moment, Elyse fell into deep despair and
pain. Furious, she was unwilling to give up. After pushing Laura away, she chased after Leo without
caring about her image and stopped in front of him. “So what if there is evidence? Ashton is your friend,
and I have a relationship with you. To Amelie, we are all partners in crime. What we do are all
authorized by you. Leo, you can’t whitewash yourself. You will never get off scot-free!”

She had suffered twice in one night and her reputation was long gone. She was acting like a shrew
most viciously and frantically. Leo didn’t even bother to look at her and walked straight past her. She
was left alone in the cold, like a pile of discarded garbage that no one cared about…



Elyse covered her face in pain and simply squatted down. She burst into tears. Her image was in
tatters, but fortunately, this was a high-end club, so no one would come to take pictures of her. After
crying for a long time, Elyse felt someone grabbing her shoulders. Then, she was forced to stand up.
She looked up and saw the silhouette of a face against the light.

The man said, “This matter has a hugely negative impact on you, but I can help you. I can find a way to
eliminate all these mistakes perfectly.”

Elyse’s body trembled. It was undeniable that she was tempted by the proposal. Nobody wanted a
lawsuit, especially a public figure like her. But immediately after, a dark determination flashed across
her eyes. “No, I will face it!”

Eliminating all these mistakes meant that nobody would be in the wrong. This was not what she

wanted.

“It’s not worth using self-destruction to gain satisfaction.”

Elyse had long been used to his sarcasm, so she only turned her face away in discomfiture and
clenched her fingers again and again. She had fallen into a kind of ludicrous obstinacy. Even if she was
required to self-destruct, she would still do it if it meant getting to see Leo and Amelie confront each
other and cut ties for good!

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the trial. As the case involved minors, it was not heard in public.
Even if it was so, Elyse who was sitting in the dock was still in extreme humiliation. She felt that
everyone who passed by her was looking at her with mockery. Judges… Lawyers… They were all
laughing at her. She had no choice but to keep cheering herself up and telling herself that it didn’t
matter. It’s worth it to trade my humiliation for the clean break between Leo and Amelie.



As she was just thinking about it, the door opened, and Amelie and Julia walked in side by side. Amelie
was holding Bria by the hand. When Elyse saw Amelie, her eyes lit up with a victorious look. While they
walked by her, Elyse sneered and taunted, “Amelie, if you think you’ve already won, you’d better stop
dreaming!”

After that, her sharp gaze fell on Bria. However, Amelie just glanced at her quietly. Without saying
anything, she led Bria and Julia away toward the plaintiff’s seats.

After a while, Leo also arrived. Seeing Leo, Elyse deliberately raised her voice and called him, “Leo,
over here!”

Leo didn’t even look at her, but Toby behind him let out a chuckle. Elyse’s heart ached from being
ignored by him, but then she thought that even if he didn’t want to, he still had to fight side by side with
her. When she thought of how he would stand on the dock, it made her feel much better. Then, she
purposely gave way to let Leo in.

Toby pulled Leo and glanced toward the dock, but Leo didn’t go in and sit down. Instead, he turned
around and went in another direction. In the end, he ended up in the plaintiff’s box.

“Leo, you’re sitting in the wrong place!” Elyse hastily reminded him. “This is the dock.”

Leo lowered his eyes as if he didn’t hear her, but Toby smiled at her. “Leo is the plaintiff.”

“P-Plaintiff?” Elyse was stunned. Her eyes could not help but move toward Amelie sitting next to Leo.
She thought that Amelie would definitely do something, and Amelie really did. Amelie gave way and
made room for Leo. Bria, who had been sitting next to Amelie, then moved to sit between the two of
them. Elyse looked at Leo and then at Amelie with a confused look. Her pink lips parted, revealing a
row of neat teeth.



“What’s going on here?” Elyse was shocked and hurriedly asked her lawyer. “Why did Leo become the
plaintiff?”

“Are you kidding me? It’s Amelie who is suing Leo!” Elyse was going crazy.

The lawyer didn’t speak anymore and pushed the documents to her. At the top of the document, it read
that the plaintiff was Leo in black and white!

“When did it change? Why didn’t you tell me?” Elyse spoke angrily in a low voice. If it weren’t for the
fact that this was a court and no noise was allowed, she would have yelled a long time ago.

you refused The lawyer looked helpless as he replied, “I’ve asked you to meet several times, but to see
me, and you didn’t answer your phone calls. I couldn’t tell you anything. In fact, two days ago, Miss
Dillon withdrew the Jawsuit against Mr. Alston.”

Two days ago?

Elyse lost her mind. If she had known that this would be the result, she would have listened to that
man’s advice. Now… Is it too late?

The truth was that it was too late. The evidence in the case was conclusive and the trial was quick. It
was a fact that Elyse encouraged Ashton to harm and take Bria away. Although no irreparable harm
was caused, she was sentenced to three months in prison and ordered to apologize to the victim. At
the end of the trial, Amelie didn’t come to her to ask for an apology but left with Julia and Bria. Before
leaving, she nodded politely at Leo, who looked back at her with deep eyes.

Then, Amelie simply left. Once outside, Julia wanted to reward Bria, so she ran off with her to buy
some treats, leaving Amelie to wait alone on the spot.



Samuel was standing outside the whole time, and when he saw Amelie approaching, he gave her a
relieved smile. “I thought you would really argue with Leo, so I was worried for a while.”

Amelie gave him a smile.

“You analyzed it so well, and I still have my basic thinking abilities. I can comprehend many things well
after calming down. In fact, the reason why I agreed to sue Leo at that time was just to give him a
chance to prove his innocence. Later, he sent evidence on his own initiative, so there was no need to
prosecute him further.”

When Leo came out and saw the two of them, he instinctively wanted to greet them. Unexpectedly, he
heard this before he opened his mouth. It turned out that she had always believed in him! Warmth
suddenly flowed into his heart.

Taby stood quietly behind him and looked at Leo’s relaxed eyebrows with a complicated

expression.

When did he start to care about what Amelie thinks of him?

After the car had driven away for a long time, she finally realized that her fist was hurting a little. So,
she lowered her head and opened her palm, only to see a piece of paper clutched in her trembling
palm.

She couldn’t help but freeze for a moment before spreading out the paper. The words written on it
made her expression change drastically!
