A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 231

The man had short hair and a square face.

With his thick lips tightly pursed, he had a very deep gaze that seemed to harbor infinite emotions.

Matthew came to sign the contract after receiving the phone call. The only reason he came to Julia’s
office was because of this.

After she mentioned that Amelie and she were friends, Matthew did not even think about how Amelie
managed to become friends with the head of Starlight Media and only wanted Julia to hook him up with
Amelie.

The more awkward thing was what he said to Amelie just now.

Although he did not mean to show off, now that he had heard their conversation, it all seemed like a big
joke.

Did I say that I wanted to marry the wife of Starlight Media’s boss? I even stated that I would support
her financially, huh? My job is given to me by her. Why would I say such a thing?!

Matthew nearly slapped himself out of embarrassment.

You shameless embarrassment!

“Mr. Larkson?”

Just as Matthew was pondering over this, someone called him from behind.

Turning around, he seemed dumbfounded, as he was still stunned about his newfound identity of
Amelie.



The person calling him was the law department personnel, who gestured at him. “The contract is ready
now.”

He then walked in while the two people inside saw him walking over.

Julia’s eyes glimmered, as Matthew looked at Amelie with a disappointed expression and forced a
smile before following the personnel to the smaller meeting room.

Using her eyes, Julia hinted to Amelie that she was leaving to sign the contract.

Amelie then nodded, walking to the balcony that had a coffee machine installed.

Breathing in the outside air and enjoying the natural breeze, she leisurely sipped on the coffee she
brewed herself.

Night fell.

In Mercury Bar, an expressionless Leo walked in with Toby accompanying him. Leo’s smile created a
stark contrast between the two.

The bar had a nice name, giving it a sense that it would be a quiet and relaxing place to have a few
drinks with a live singer adding to the atmosphere.

Yet, they were almost sent stumbling backward by the deafening sound of the music as soon as they
opened the door.

“Is this James person right in the head? Talking business in such a noisy place?” Toby tried his best to
take in his surroundings while showing a slightly disdained expression.

The dim lights, heavy metal music, less than savory crowd plus the people onstage that were dancing
maniacally made it seem more like they had entered the valley of death instead.



The moment Leo opened the door, he also frowned and had the same expression as Toby.

Yet, after a mere two seconds, he regained his calmness. His expression appeared just as stoic as
before.

Toby turned around and looked at him only to see Leo taking in his surroundings nonchalantly.

He had to admit that Leo was better than him in this regard. Even in this kind of environment, Leo can
still keep his cool and not be swayed. This isn’t easy to accomplish.

Toby knew that he could not do it. It seems like James wants to use this environment to disturb our
thoughts and get the upper hand in the negotiation, eh? He’s going to be disappointed then.

He could almost imagine how defeated the big, blonde businessman would look.

In the end, it was the same as what Toby predicted, for Leo maintained his sharp demeanor. Not only
did he not lose, but he even managed to turn the tables around and forced the opposition to give a five
percent discount.

Although it might not seem much, a five percent discount dealing worth a billion was astounding.

Seeing James sign the contract and leave with a defeated expression made Toby smile.

He looked at Leo, who was unaffected by his chaotic surroundings. “We didn’t have to negotiate on the
base price anyway, yet you still chose to do it. Why? Did you want to punish him for his trick tonight?”

Not denying this, Leo finally frowned deeply to express his disdain toward the place. “You can wrap this
up.”

He then took his coat and left.

Taking long strides, he seemed very proper and distant.



After looking at Leo’s silhouette for a while, Toby turned around and started packing the documents.

Then, he walked out only to bump into someone.

That man was so drunk that he did not even move upon bumping into Toby.

Although Toby was upset and frowned slightly, he still pushed the person aside politely. “Sir, you’re
drunk.”

“I-I’m not drunk!” That person waved his hands around.

Not wishing to entertain a drunkard, Toby pushed him aside, wanting to leave.

However, the man tugged on his shirt. “Elie, please don’t go. How about we have a chat?”

Toby was speechless because he hated drunkards, but the name ‘Elie’ seemed to have glued him onto
the spot.

Although Toby was unsure whether the person was calling out to the one whom Toby thought, he was
sure that they had nothing to do with each other but still found himself drawn to the name.

At that moment, he only felt that he was pathetic and laughable.

“Elie…” the man called out. “We grew up in the same village. I have liked you since the first day of
meeting you in school. Even after you rejected me, I was never disheartened. I kept working hard to
make sure that I could match up with you, but now… I only found out how laughable I am! You’re the
boss of Starlight Media! I’m just some small-time business owner who even has to depend on your
help! I really am a fool that doesn’t know his limits.”

Toby, who was hearing the man speak, did not react until the words ‘Starlight Media’ was uttered. It
was then a spark flashed in his mind and connected a lot of incidents.



Finally, a conclusion emerged within him. He was dumbstruck!

Starlight Media’s Elie could only be Amelie! She… She is the real boss of Starlight Media! How many
secrets is Amelie hiding in that tiny frame of hers?

The man who had drunk himself into a stupor was none other than Matthew.

This was the first he got so drunk, and everything he said came from his heart. Even if he was wasted,
something was clawing at his chest, making him feel awful. He gripped his shirt tightly.

After a long time, Matthew stumbled away.

Meanwhile, Toby only left after Leo’s chauffeur came to call him.

Finally, there was some peace and quiet outside.

Coming out from the noisy and polluted environment in the bar, no matter how bustling the street was,
Toby still felt like it was paradise.

Toby then saw Leo standing under a tree with his hands in his pocket.

His gaze was a well of endless depth that nobody could disturb.

Suddenly, a prank popped into Toby’s mind. If I expose who Amelie truly is and tell him the woman that
treated him so whole-heartedly is not only beautiful and kind but also possesses an incredible
capability, what kind of blow would it be to him?

“Leo,” he called out to Leo with that in mind.

Turning around, Leo was a bit upset. “Why took you so long?”

Without waiting for Toby to answer, Leo rubbed his temples. “Let’s go.”



He walked toward his car.

“Amelie!” Toby suddenly stated, which made Leo look at him with curiosity.

Although he did not speak, it was obvious that Leo was waiting for what Toby was going to say.

“She’s…”
