A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 209

Eugene Cornelius?” Amelie had to search her mind for several moments before she remembered that
he was Leo’s assistant. “Why?”

Eugene hesitated for a moment before answering, “Something’s happening here, and you’re the only
one who can resolve the situation.”

“What is it?” Amelie’s curiosity was piqued.

Eugene glanced at the two men who were still tussling with each other and had no choice but to state
honestly, “Mr. Alston has gotten into a fight with someone.”

“Leo Alston?” Amelie thought she had to get her ears checked. Leo’s a stoic iceberg. Why would he get
into a fight with someone?

“That’s right.” Eugene felt ashamed to make this call for help, but he had to push through it anyway. He
doubted that the two men would stop if Amelie didn’t show up.

“I’m sorry, but his matters have nothing to do with me.” After a moment of stunned silence, Amelie
regained her senses and replied, “We’ve divorced. You should be calling his family.” While Eugene had
been away for two years, there was no reason for him to not be aware of the divorce.

“I know.” Eugene’s head was throbbing. “But you know what Mr. Alston’s like. His family…”

Leo wouldn’t listen to Melissa, and Melissa didn’t have the guts to get involved either.

There was no point even considering Jodie.

Eugene didn’t know what he could say to convince Amelie.

After a while, he said, “He’s fighting with Mr. Walsh, and it seems to have started because of you.”



“Mr. Walsh? Toby Walsh?” Amelie was startled by what Eugene was telling her. She had the impression
that Toby was a warm and pleasant gentleman. Would he get into a fight with someone?

“That’s right,” Eugene confirmed.

Amelie might not have gotten involved if it had been anyone else, but Toby was different. Previously, he
saved her life, and now, he was her father’s mentee.

Amelie knew a thing or two about how strict the Walshes were when it came to their family upbringing.
If this news got back to Toby’s family, he would be in for a hard time.

“Fine.” In the end, she agreed to go. After attending to Brianna, Amelie rushed over to Prix Bar.

Eugene looked as if his savior had arrived. “You’re here at last, Miss Dillon.”

Amelie eyed him and asked, “Where are they?” Before Eugene could answer, there was a loud bang as
if something had crashed. Everyone jumped in shock while Eugene gave Amelie a sheepish glance.

Quite a number of bodyguards lined the corridor. This was to avoid letting anyone else find out that the
two men were fighting.

Amelie was a little nervous as she opened the door.

The private room was completely thrashed and almost unrecognizable. The furniture was wrecked with
most things missing a leg or two, but the two men were still going at each other. Now and then, the
sound of someone’s fist pounding against the other’s body was heard. Even from the sound alone, one
could tell just how painful the blow was.

Amelie looked at them. She saw the silhouette in black pouncing with agility. His attacks were quick
and menacing.



Although the silhouette in white was a little less skillful, he was just as persistent.

Amelie never knew the two were that good at fighting, especially Leo. Her memory of him consisted of
him being very proper and courteous despite his stern appearance. Even when he detested her, he
never laid a finger on her. She never knew he could fight this well.

Thump! Another muffled sound of a fist making contact. Toby, the one in white, was punched so hard
that he slammed into the wall.

Amelie couldn’t stand idly by any longer. “Stop!” she cried out.

The two men froze and turned toward her. Leo’s brows furrowed at once when he saw her. His eyes
flitted straight over to Eugene.

Eugene was startled as he shrank back feeling a little helpless.

Toby smiled. Then, as if he was trying to prove something, he smashed his fist into Leo’s face right in
front of Amelie. Leo’s expression hardened as he repaid in kind.

Amelie was speechless.

While she was still in shock, Leo backed Toby all the way into the corner. Toby was at s clear
disadvantage and was rapidly becoming Leo’s punching bag.

Amelie thought about leaving them be, but when she saw what was happening, she couldn’t ignore it.
She rushed over and got between the two men. “Stop fighting!”

Leo’s fist had been flying straight toward Toby, but when he saw Amelie dashing in front of Toby, he
quickly redirected his fist which ended up smashing into the wall behind her with a loud bang.



It had been a heavy punch, and in the process of avoiding Amelie, he couldn’t retract his strength in
time, so his fist smashed into the wall.

Meanwhile, Amelie’s heart was pounding in fear as she growled, “Two respectable and accomplished
men fighting like that! Have you no shame?”

Leo said nothing as he glared at Toby.

However, Toby flashed Leo a smug, taunting smile.

Then, he pulled Amelie into his arms. “Are you okay?”

Amelie nodded. “I’m fine. What about you?”

“I’m alright.” He nodded back at her.

His handsome face was swollen and bruised all over. “How can you say you’re alright when you look
like this?” Amelie eyed him in exasperation. “I’ll take you to the hospital.”

She started pulling him toward the door. Toby didn’t object and allowed her to steer him out.

Behind them, Leo stood there with his brows all knotted together. The temperature around him seemed
to drop a few degrees.

Upon seeing that Amelie was only concerned with Toby, Eugene came over and stood in her way.
“Miss Dillon, Mr. Alston’s… injured too.”

“You can take him to the hospital then.” She noticed Leo’s injuries too, but who was she to be
concerned about him?



Amelie sidestepped Eugene and carried on walking, but as soon as she got to the door, she felt a grip
on her shoulder.

Amelie turned around and saw a wounded hand clasping onto her tightly. The owner of the wounded
hand stood there in silence with a stormy expression on his bruised face. It was a terrifying expression.

Amelie was startled by Leo and couldn’t help but look at him. There was something else in his dark
eyes, apart from his usual indifference. It looked as if he felt… aggrieved.

Amelie felt her heart constricting ever so slightly. She blinked to try and get a better look, but a figure
came over and blocked her sight.

Toby stared at Leo with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “Everyone’s talking about the drama between
you and Elyse now, Leo. What are they going to think if Elie’s seen with you?”

Toby’s smile faded away as his expression grew stern. “Everyone will think that Elie’s the third party
who caused your breakup. How will she be able to deal with that kind of reputation? Do you want her to
bear the brunt of everyone’s criticisms and insults?”

Leo’s grip weakened as he took in Toby’s words, and in the end, he let go. Toby took this chance to
grab Amelie’s hand and walk out with her.

Meanwhile, Eugene felt bad for Leo when he took this all in from behind.

Leo’s fist had changed trajectory because of Amelie. He didn’t want to hurt her and would rather be the
one who got injured instead.

Eugene walked over and glanced down at Leo’s bloodied fist. “I’ll take you to the hospital, Mr. Alston.”

Leo walked off without responding. Blood trickled through his fingers and dripped down to the floor, but
he didn’t seem to feel the pain. He went out and climbed into the car.



After taking his seat, he closed his eyes. His mind kept replaying the scene of Amelie fearlessly
shielding Toby with her own body.

He knew that Toby was a far better fighter than he seemed to be earlier. His disadvantaged position
and defeated stance had all been an act. Yet, she didn’t notice that at all… What does it mean? Leo
didn’t want to dwell on this thought, but it felt as if someone had punched him right in the chest as it
was throbbing with pain.
