A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

“Thanks, but no thanks.” She avoided Leo’s check coldly.

“I only have myself to blame for everything in the past.

Since I delayed some of your good years as well, you can just think of it as if I have taken the money and given it back to you as your emotional damage compensation.

From now on, we don’t owe each other anything.” After she said that, she tilted her head and looked at Leo with a carefree smile.

Her cool reaction surprised Leo.

In his opinion, she married into the Alston Family because of money.

But now, she refused the money that he gave to her freely? However, when he thought of the various things that happened, his surprise was immediately replaced by irony.

Leo’s face darkened.

“Think carefully before you speak.

This is my last offer to you! Keep pretending, and you won’t get a penny in the future!” Ha! He thinks I’m pretentious. The moment Amelie heard Leo’s words, her heart turned stone cold.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Alston.

I will live a happy life without you, and my time is worth more than getting into petty fights with you,” she mocked contemptuously.

After she finished speaking, she hailed a taxi and got into it without a single hesitation.

As the car moved away, the frigid expression on her face slowly dissipated, leaving only a resigned smile.

She had lived with the Alston Family for four years and had never overstepped her boundaries.

So when had she ever tried anything when it came to Leo? Julia soon learned about Leo forcing money on Amelie instead of apologizing for his wrongdoings.

She was so pissed that she held nothing back as she insulted him mercilessly.

“What a b*stard! He thinks that he is the only one with money in the world.

Amelie, you must attend the Starlight Media charity auction and make him jealous!” Julia had always been efficient; within a minute, she told her staff that Amelie would appear on stage.

At the same time, she also had Amelie’s outfit and her male companion ready.

“The male companion will pose as your boyfriend.

Don’t worry, the companion I found will definitely make Leo so jealous that he will cry and faint in the toilet!” When Amelie finally saw the ‘boyfriend’ Julia talked about at the entrance of the auction venue, her head filled with white noise.

The first thought she had was she would definitely get photographed fainting in the toilet instead of Leo because the ‘boyfriend’ was none other than Blake.
