A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 182

“What’s wrong?” Ashton asked.

Leo didn’t respond but just turned around and left the room.

“Sh*t!” Ashton cursed unhappily, upset that Leo ignored him.

Then, he kicked the couch, frustrated out of his mind.

…

Three days later, inside the Genesis office, Victor Willis walked into the office briskly and saw a tall man
who was having a meeting in the office. He lowered his eyes and stepped to the side silently.

Leo glanced at him but didn’t react. Then, with a wave of his hand, he dismissed everyone. “That’s the
end of today’s meeting. Everyone is dismissed.”

Everyone was secretly relieved and left the office instantly.

Their hurried steps immediately gave way to dead silence.

Laura brought in two cups of coffee and left as soon as she placed the cups.

Leo didn’t think to invite Victor to drink coffee as he walked over to him and asked, “How did the
investigation go?”

Victor stood up and looked at him. “It’s just as you expected.”

His answer made Leo look at him in shock, his face frozen.

There was silence in the office for quite some time.



It took Leo a while before he snapped out of the shock and asked quietly, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, I am.” Victor was confident in his investigation. “I had gone to investigate it myself. I saw with my
own eyes that Miss Dillon is actually Foxy.”

So, all those tips were her legitimate income?

Leo’s hands dropped to his sides, and his face twisted into a complicated expression.

What did he say to her?

Did he call her a stripper?

He finally understood the things she said when she left.

He was also aware of just how angry she was.

Leo’s grip on his bag tightened as he stood upright. Still, Victor noticed that something was slowly
disappearing from Leo.

His eyes flickered, but he didn’t bring any attention to it.

After he gave his report, he melted into the shadows.

He seemed to have erased his existence as he faded away as if he was never there in the first place.

Leo stood there for a while before walking out of the office, his eyes downcast.

Only then did Victor leave quietly through a secret passage.

Meanwhile, at The Walsh Residence, Toby sorted through the documents with his head down. His face
was as gentle and kind as ever.



“Thank you.”

He handed the documents to his secretary next to him, and he smiled lightly. He was good-natured and
polite as he thanked his secretary sincerely.

The secretary took the documents with a smile and walked out.

As soon as he reached the door, someone else came in, and his smile froze. Still, he greeted the
unannounced visitor, “Mr. Alston.”

The secretary quickly gave way and bowed his head. The smile on his face had disappeared entirely.

Leo’s face was indifferent, and his expression was blank. He bowed his head slightly to the secretary’s
greeting, and it was barely noticeable.

As he walked by, the secretary felt a gust of cold wind and couldn’t help but shiver.

The secretary was thankful that he was serving someone like Toby, not the icy-cold man in front of him.

Even though this man looked significantly better than Toby, his indifferent aura was enough to scare a
lot of people away.

If Toby was compared to the spring breeze and summer sun, then Leo was the harsh winter that was
negative 30 degrees.

When Toby heard the secretary’s greeting, he looked over immediately. Toby wasn’t surprised to see
Leo as a meaningful smile flashed across his face.

He looked at the secretary with gentle eyes and asked, “Can you pour me two cups of coffee?”

“Yes, sir.” Toby’s gentleness warmed his heart as he nodded. Once he poured two cups of coffee, he
left the room happily.



Leo stood there with his head lowered the whole time. He wasn’t in a hurry to speak, but his face was
gloomy enough to tell there was something on his mind.

Toby picked up a cup of coffee, walked over, and handed it to him. “Why did you come over? Is there
an emergency?”

However, Leo didn’t take the coffee, but his eyes were fixed on Toby’s hands.

Toby didn’t feel awkward and just raised his hand higher, offering the cup of coffee.

In the end, although Leo took the cup, he didn’t give the coffee a sip. Instead, he looked at the man
across from him. “When did you find out Amelie is Foxy?

Toby looked away with a smile. Then, he took a sip of his coffee and said, “I’ve known it for a while.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“There isn’t a need to. You’re divorced, right?” He looked up at Leo, his head slightly tilted.

Toby still had a smile on his face, but it seemed to be carrying a different meaning now.

Leo couldn’t help but think about Toby’s crush on Amelie. He had even expressed his liking for Amelie
several times.

Suddenly, he found it hard to breathe, as if something was constricting his heart.

It was so slippery, making it impossible to grasp, and he gradually felt his head spin.

“Leo, what you should be more concerned about is not when I knew she was Foxy but when she
became Foxy.” Toby’s voice was clear and pleasant, but his words were like knives stabbing into Leo’s
body.



The sudden pain caught him off guard!

The veins on his forehead bulged violently in response!

“Foxy rose to fame seven years ago and suddenly disappeared three years later. But, then, she was
suddenly on the Internet again not too long ago. Don’t you think the timeline is very coincidental with
your marriage?” Toby asked. “Have you ever thought what Amelie had sacrificed just to marry you?”

Toby didn’t want to mention this.

He knew that if he mentioned this, it would only push Leo to Amelie again.

Yet, Toby had constantly been thinking of how she swallowed her pride and allowed herself to be
bullied when she was in the Alston family these past few days. Whenever he thought of what she had
gone through, his heart ached.

She had wings that could bring her straight to the sky, but she was willing to break them for a man…

He felt that if he didn’t bring this to light, no one would know what she had suffered, making his heart
pang.

He felt that her sufferings were unjust.

On the other side, Leo went even more silent than before.

He had constantly lowered his head throughout their conversation, and his eyes were pitch black. No
one could tell what he was thinking.

Toby’s eyes settled on him for a moment as if what he said was no big deal.

He soon regained his composure and decided to push this discussion along.



With that, he continued, “By the way, Leo, I heard that you have an interesting relationship with Elyse’s
twin sister. I want to know, if you find her, will you marry her?”

Only then did Leo look up at him silently.

He noticed that Toby was staring back at him with great interest. After a moment, he parted his lips and
responded with one word, “No.”

“No?” Toby seemed very surprised. “Didn’t you pamper Elyse thinking she was Ellen before?”

“It’s true, but we shouldn’t confuse kindness for affection. Moreover, we haven’t seen each other for ten
years. Our lives have changed. Forcibly being together isn’t good for either of us.”

After he replied curtly, he seemed to have lost interest and turned to leave.

Behind him, Toby was staring at his back; his gentle gaze felt oddly piercing.

“Is it really because you haven’t seen each other for ten years, Leo? Or did Amelie influence you?” He
murmured to himself, slowly tightening his grip on the coffee cup.

…

Amelie had just finished her live stream. So, she greeted Steven and planned to meet the new
partners.

The other party already had a finished manuscript in hand and was preparing to publish it.

She was trying to convince him to release it on his own platform.

There had been a lot of discussion going on, and now the last thing to do now was to edit the
manuscript to match up with their needs.



Amelie kept her head down as she made phone calls to contact the other party until she almost ran into
a car that drove by.

“Sorry!” She took a few steps back, cried out apologetically, and hung up the phone immediately.

The car stopped, and the door opened.

A shiny pair of black leather shoes stepped out of the car.

A pair of slender legs followed right after, which truly displayed just how expensive those shoes could
possibly be.

Amelie couldn’t help but raise her head. It was then that she saw his slender frame and his handsome
but cold face.
