A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 329 She’s Exerting Dominance Even Before Marriage

With his hands behind his back, Leo appeared aloof and intimidating as his black suit set off his fair skin.

Leo! Michelle dared not call his name out loud. She merely mouthed his name and gritted her teeth, tears almost rolling down her face.

When she came downstairs, Leo followed her from behind.

The reason she couldn’t give up on pestering Amelie was to prove that she was better than the latter. She refused to be the losing party as it made her feel humiliated.

Watching the aggrieved look on Michelle’s face, Amelie slowly returned to her senses.

I knew it! Michelle was the daughter of a wealthy family. How could she be willing to be a laughingstock without reason?

Since Michelle did all that just to attract Leo’s attraction, she decided to play along with her.

As if not noticing Leo, Amelie changed her expression and grabbed Michelle’s hands. “Miss Walsh, you’re right. The New Year shows are just pure entertainment. They aren’t sophisticated events at all. I’m sure someone as excellent as you don’t even enjoy watching them.”

Her response took Michelle aback.

Upon hearing her compliment, Michelle immediately assumed that Amelie was mocking her.

The more she thought, the more eager she was to prove how excellent she was. Hence, she announced, “I’m not considered outstanding in my family, but at least I graduated from a prestigious Ivy League university. Anyone who graduated from an Ivy League university is naturally exceptional. So far, no one I know of has graduated from an Ivy League university!”

Amelie was speechless at that.

Did all Ivy League university students behave like her? Did all of them look down on people and act almighty?

Was the Ivy League some kind of joke?

However, Amelie didn’t forget her original intention. She purposely raised her voice in exaggeration and exclaimed, “Wow! Ivy League?! That’s so cool! I can’t compare to you, Miss Walsh. My university can’t even get into whatever league in Corynthea. It is merely an ordinary university.”

Michelle couldn’t stifle a laugh upon hearing that.

That woman was indeed dumb. She didn’t even seem to know what Ivy League was!

The guests who overheard Amelie laughed out loud as well.

Some thought she was being funny, but some carried the same thought as Michelle who assumed Amelie was ignorant.

Of course, Amelie heard their laughter, but she didn’t care.

Others couldn’t simply judge one’s intelligence. What mattered most was one’s own thoughts.

As if not understanding why the crowd was laughing, she continued, “Even though I studied at an ordinary university, I merely strove to graduate.”
