A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 220

Due to her marriage’s cancellation, numerous projects Elyse was in were canceled, and her plan to
raise her popularity through these projects was for naught. Brimming with frustration, she couldn’t be
bothered to keep up the image she portrayed herself in public and kept scolding her assistant for every
little thing during the whole ride.

However, once she was done yelling at her assistant, she looked into the mirror and straightened
herself out. Still have an image to keep in public. When she came to the company, she had hidden her
hideous, evil self deep within her, replacing it with a bright, cheery, and elegant look. Her heels clopped
as she made her way to the dressing room.

Only a select few in the company had a dressing room, and Elyse was one of them. She had the
biggest and grandest dressing room. As usual, she was being stared at by the interns, yet she didn’t
even throw as much as a glance at them. Even those who tried to say hi to her only gained a harrumph
in return.

As she stood before her dressing room, she felt her heart calm down. At least I’m still treated like an A-
lister here. I bet tons of people are jealous of me. As she thought of that, she pulled on the door, but no
matter how much she tried, the door was still shut. Thinking that it was malfunctioning, she shot her
assistant a glare. “What’s the meaning of this? The door’s broken, yet you didn’t even bother to call for
someone to fix it!”

Scarred by all the yelling from earlier, the assistant shuddered when Elyse yelled once more. She then
tried to pull on the door as well. “No way. It was still good when I came this morning.”

“Then, explain this! Don’t try to use any excuses to cover up your failure.”

The assistant was at a loss for words at that point.



“Get someone to fix this!” hissed Elyse. Her voice filled with a distaste for her assistant, who was
nothing but a failure in her eyes.

The assistant was about to call someone to fix the door, but then someone opened the door from
within.

When Elyse saw who it was, her face fell. “What is the meaning of this? This is my dressing room!
Don’t you know that?”

The person who came out of the dressing room was none other than Rose. Not only did she ignore
Elyse’s questioning, but she also leaned on the door, looking nonchalant as she replied, “I do.”

“In that case, get out of my sight, then!” Rose was one of those who tried to butter her up all the time.
Elyse wouldn’t even give her a moment of her day. She refused to even shove her. Doing that is going
to dirty my hands.

Rose hated that arrogant attitude of hers.

“Oh, didn’t Donia tell you? This room is mine now.” She filed her beautiful nails. Unlike her usual
sycophantic self, Rose was acting high and mighty.

“Impossible!” Elyse snapped.

“Nothing’s impossible.” Rose chuckled. “One who makes the most money will get the best the company
has to offer. I have a few projects on my hands while nobody would work with you. Heck, they’re all
canceling your projects. Donia has no reason to keep this room for you.” Rose wanted to get back at
Elyse for the humiliation she had to suffer back then.

“W-What are you talking about?” Elyse was confused. Rose isn’t the best girl around. That was why
she kept ingratiating herself with me.



“Don’t you know? The guys who canceled your projects came to me after that. They’ve picked me for
the main role.”

Elyse felt shocked, infuriated, and insulted. “How can that be?!” She knew the investors pulled out, but
she never thought they’d turn to Rose. Wait. So, this means the investors didn’t pull out. The company
just changed its plan!

Angry, Elyse called Donia. In the past, Donia would have taken her calls instantly, but this time, she
only picked up after several calls were made. “What is it? I’m in a meeting.”

She must have known those were my calls. Now, she’s talking to me like trash because I’m worthless
to her. Unable to hold her anger back, Elyse hissed, “Why did you let Rose take over my projects?
Don’t you know the investors came for me?”

Donia responded coolly, “They did come for you, but the moment your marriage with Leo was
canceled, they pulled out. If I hadn’t recommended Rose to them, and if Rose hadn’t performed
spectacularly, they would have taken their money elsewhere.”

“Spectacularly?” Elyse almost laughed. All she knows is buttering people up and sleeping with the
clients. That’s all. “This is unfair.”

“How so? They weren’t investing in you; they were investing because of Mr. Alston. You only have
yourself to blame for your incompetence in keeping him by your side. If you really want those roles,
why don’t you work for them as Rose did.”

Work for it as she did? Does she expect me to go around and sleep with those pigs? I am not that kind
of woman! Because of Leo’s spoiling, Elyse developed a haughty and arrogant attitude. She would
never sell herself out to get a future. Even when Leo and Amelie were married, Elyse was still using the
resources of the Alstons. She would never deign to attend any appointments.



Donia had lost her patience, and she hung up as soon as she finished her words.

Elyse could feel her fury bubbling up within her, ready to explode at any minute. “You think you have a
future just because you sleep around?” She looked at Rose coldly, mocking, “One day, they’re going to
get tired of you and toss you away like an abandoned ragdoll.”

Rose chuckled, a sardonic smile curling her lips. “At least I’m relying on myself. You, on the other hand,
are like a parasite sucking off the Alstons. Without them, you are nothing. Before you talk down to me,
you should try carving a future for yourself.”

“Why you little…” This arrogant b*tch! Elyse clenched her fists. I am going to claw her face and gouge
her eyes out!

Rose wasn’t going to stop right there. She drove the point deeper. “Oh, wait. You’re already old.
Nobody’s going to sleep with you even if you were to stand before them naked.”

Elyse was 28 years old. She was already past her prime, at least in this industry, where everything was
changing by the minute. Except for the most outstanding ones, most female celebrities would have
retired and married someone or taken up supporting roles. Elyse wasn’t the best actress around. The
only things she had going for her were her looks and attitude. However, those could only attract shut-
ins and NEETs. These people would switch to the latest and hottest things at the first chance, leaving
the old actresses behind.

Infuriated and humiliated by Rose’s retaliation, Elyse shivered in rage. Putting her image aside, she
raised a hand against Rose, giving her one tight slap.
