A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 142

Amelie stopped in her tracks and stood in her place while looking over.

She saw that person leaning against the car with his head slightly lowered. There was a cigarette between his fingers, and smoke was gradually rising from the cigarette.

The scene before Amelie surprised her because, in her memories, he rarely smoked.

Leo took a drag of his cigarette and saw Amelie, so he walked over.

Since he was quiet, his pursed lips and dark patches under his eyes gave others a depressing feeling.

Meanwhile, Amelie stared at him without moving.

He threw the cigarette bud to the floor before stepping in to put it out. “Since you guys don’t want Bria, you can give her to me.”

When Leo spoke, Amelie instantly understood what was happening. It seemed like he had read the interview article on the so-called “owner of Starlight Media.”

“What if I say the interview was a fake? That person is not the real owner of Starlight Media.” When Amelie spoke, she looked into his eyes with her clear and bright eyes.

She saw him frown, followed by a slight scoff.

“How does it feel to lie through your teeth?”

If Toby was the only one who said Elliot Poole was the owner of Starlight Media, perhaps he would still maintain some doubt. However, even Ashton found information proving that point, so how would Leo believe that Amelie wasn’t lying to him?

Leo’s face darkened even more, and his nicer attitude toward Amelie returned to how it originally was.

While looking at his raised eyebrow and sarcastic smile, Amelie felt helpless.

However, she didn’t want to fall out with Leo regarding Bria.

Therefore, she took a deep breath and suppressed the frustration in her mind before asking again, “Would you. believe me if I said I’m the real owner of Starlight Media? Elliot Poole does not even exist! If you don’t believe me, you can ask Julia or Samuel. Both of them are very familiar with me.”

This time, Leo did not scoff. Instead, he just stared at her with his jet-black eyes.
