A Matter of Wife and Love Chapter 327

Hypocrites

Jodie was sharp enough to notice the couple on the dance floor immediately. She was flabbergasted
when she realized who the woman in Toby’s arms was. “Am I seeing things right, Mom? Why is Toby
dancing with that woman?”

While entering the venue, Melissa constantly adjusted her clothing and checked on her appearance.
On such a big occasion, she had to keep her image perfect. Hearing Jodie’s startled voice, she
scolded, “Don’t you know where you’re at? Stop yelling. Is that how a lady should behave?! I swear
you’re learning backward!”

On the other hand, Jodie was not in the mood to bother her mother’s lecture. Instead, she tugged on
Melissa’s sleeves and exclaimed, “It’s Foxy! Toby is starting the dance with Foxy!” While saying that,
she pointed in the direction of the dance floor.

The name ‘Foxy’ instantly attracted Melissa’s attention. She was initially going to scold her daughter
again but instead looked in the direction Jodie pointed in.

Meanwhile, on the dance floor with a navy background, a couple in white was dancing elegantly. The
man had long, elegant legs and a smooth and gentlemanly gait. In addition, the woman was tall with a
slim, graceful frame. With the sound of the music and the man’s guidance, she moved with the
lightness and agility of someone walking on clouds! Their seamless coordination attracted the
amazement of the audience. Everyone found it difficult to peel their eyes off the couple.

Soon, Melissa’s gaze landed on the fox mask the woman was wearing. As an avid Foxy’s live
broadcast fan, she was highly familiar with her mask! “No way! How could Foxy have any connections
with Toby?” She felt her heart was being pounded as it thumped uncontrollably. Then, she quickly
deduced, “Maybe she’s just wearing a similar mask.”



Following Foxy’s comeback, her mask was sold on major online shopping platforms and was said to be
a best-selling item. Since tonight’s theme was a masquerade party, her fan must have bought a similar
mask!

“Maybe it’s just his new girlfriend,” Melissa added another assumption.

Among the younger generation in their circle, the other men from other families were not as abstinent
as her son, Leo. Hence, they tend to start new relationships very often.

“Really?” Jodie asked.

She wasn’t bothered whether the woman on the dance floor was Foxy. Moreover, she was fine as long
as no woman lurked around Blake.

Nonetheless, Melissa was an exception because, despite her best efforts, she couldn’t shake her
nervousness.

On the one hand, Amelie had officially announced her marriage to the president of Starlight Media, but
her son only adored Foxy, who was the only person worthy of him.

Then, Melissa kept her attention focused on the woman who was dancing on the floor. After much
deliberation, she still had no answers, so she brought Jodie to meet Alfred instead.

“Happy birthday, Mr. Walsh.” Melissa handed him a gift.

“Happy birthday, Grandpa.” Jodie also took out her gift.

Seeing that, Alfred chuckled in response. “Leo has already given me something. You really didn’t have
to bring another gift.”



He used to be best friends with Warren Alston, Leo’s father. Hence, he had always adored the
members of the Alston Family.

“We only have one chance to give you a present, and that is on your birthday, Grandpa. Just take it,”
Jodie replied sweetly. Though she wasn’t exceptionally bright, she was pretty good at coaxing.

After hearing that, he chuckled in delight and told the butler to keep them.

After exchanging customary greetings with him, Melissa switched the subject. “What made you decide
to let Toby lead the dance this year? You used to be worried that his girlfriends from casual
relationships might ruin your family’s reputation, didn’t you?”

Hearing that question, Alfred propped his chin with his fingers and looked in Toby’s direction. “He is
quite a flirt but never brings his girlfriend to my birthday banquets. He must be serious about this one
since he brought her along.”

“Which family is she from to have the honor of being chosen by Toby?” she prodded.

Hearing that, his stern gaze darkened a little. “Her name is Foxy. I heard she’s a famous influencer, but
as long as he likes her, her identity doesn’t matter.”

Alfred didn’t keep himself up to date with the latest trends about influencers, but he heard from others
that Foxy had a huge fanbase.

“F-Foxy?” After Melissa obtained confirmation from him regarding her assumption, she could no longer
hold back. What on earth is going on?! How did my soon-to-be daughter-in-law become Toby’s
girlfriend?

Afterward, she forced a smile and chatted with him as usual, but her heart was already beating wildly
as she felt at a loss. Someone later came up to greet him, allowing her to excuse herself.



As her gaze fixed on the couple on the dance floor, Melissa experienced shortness of breath. What is
going on in this world? Why isn’t everything going my way?

After failing to snatch the inheritance, her son’s marriage did not seem like it was going to go well
either! As she recalled the past and watched the current scene, she was so agitated that she nearly
spat blood.

On the other hand, Jodie’s mood was the polar opposite of her mother’s. I’m glad Foxy is dating Toby
rather than Leo. Now that she is eagerly flinging herself into Toby’s waiting arms, I could spare myself
the trouble of kicking her out. It’s a relief she’s out of the way because I’ve been dying to get my hands
on Blake!

As she imagined the consequences, she pulled out her phone and took pictures of Toby and Amelie.
After that, she forwarded Blake the best-quality image she had taken, as the photo itself was self-
explanatory.

Foxy and Toby were dancing together during Alfred’s birthday banquet, which meant their relationship
was already approved.

The more she thought about it, the happier she felt as she hummed a soft tune.

Once the music ended, enthusiastic applause broke out in the hall, regardless of whether or not they
were sincere.

Immediately, Amelie broke free of Toby’s embrace and scanned the crowd. She didn’t see Leo, and the
spot he was standing in earlier was now empty. Then, she sighed a breath of relief.

On the other hand, Leo had been standing in the same spot before the dance ended. Although she did
not commit a crime, she felt so burdened that she messed up the dance. Nevertheless, Toby quickly



reacted and followed her lead to avoid any suspicion from the crowd.

Biting her lip in frustration, she cursed herself for still being mindful of his feelings.

“As expected of you, Miss Foxy. Your steps are as graceful as a river. We couldn’t peel our eyes off you
at all.”

As soon as she left the dance floor, Toby’s two aunts approached Amelie and greeted her
enthusiastically. Then, they linked Amelie’s arms together as if she were a celebrity.

Watching their overly friendly faces, Amelie felt uneasy. She couldn’t help recalling their conversation
around the rockery earlier.

The Walsh Family was used to wearing a mask wherever they went, but Amelie couldn’t switch
between different masks seamlessly like Toby’s two aunts. Biting her lip, she remained silent all the
way.

When Toby came over in an attempt to dismiss the two of them, Brenda uttered, “Toby, your grandpa is
looking for you. Hurry up and see him. Don’t make him wait too long.”

“Yeah. We’ll take care of Miss Foxy. Don’t worry.”

Hearing that, the corners of his lip twitched slightly under his mask as he looked at Amelie. In
response, she shook her head to hint that she would be alright. After being reassured, he left to meet
Alfred.

“Toby is always considerate to girls,” Brenda sighed as she watched him leave.

Eunice nodded and agreed, “Exactly. Despite his playful nature and refusal to engage in serious
relationships, I recall how attentive he was to Rosie back then. I reckoned he almost fell deeply in love
with her, but if it wasn’t for—”



Suddenly, Brenda nudged Eunice and hinted at her continuously with her eyes.
