A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 365 Display of Affection

Leo’s eyes were empty without any emotion as he looked at her with his hands by his sides. He stood out from the rest of the crowd.

Amelie was slightly stunned before she saw a pair of pale hands clinging to his arm, and the girl leaned her head against him. She shot Amelie a warning glance which she didn’t allow Leo to see. Amelie only smiled slightly in response before shifting her gaze to another direction.

After they arrived downstairs, the Gage Family made small talk with Julia’s parents. As soon as the scheduled time arrived, Samuel took her hand from her parents’ grasp, and the both of them walked toward the oath stand. Amelie watched on silently as they made their vows and exchanged rings, wishing them happiness again and again when she saw their loving gazes.

“Amelie, it has been a long time.” The wedding was nearly over when Jamie approached her. It had been two years since they last met, but he remained the same as before, constantly smiling and making girls’ hearts race with a mere glance.

“It’s been some time,” she replied with a smile. His father had died from his illness soon after she went overseas two years ago, so he had to return to the company.

“Come with me.” He reached out his hand to pull her along.

Amelie was confused and could only follow him away. As she passed Leo, the top of her head somehow felt chilly. She did not raise her head and followed Jamie in standing opposite Julia.

Julia was now standing on the podium with the bouquet in her hands as her back faced the crowd. Many young men and women below her looked eager and rubbed their hands together in preparation. It was obvious all of them wanted to catch Julia’s bouquet.

Jamie, who was tall, clicked his fingers at Julia. She gleefully swung the bouquet and threw it toward Amelie. Everything happened too suddenly, and when the realization hit her, the bouquet was already in front of her. She could only catch it on instinct.

Just as her fingertips made contact with the bouquet, she felt her shoulder being weighed down before someone collided with it. The force was so strong that her body tilted as the bouquet fell from her hands.

She was propelled to one side, where a tall champagne tower had been set up. If she hit it, the tower would fall and injure her in the process. She tried to catch her balance but there was nothing she could use for support, so she closed her eyes in preparation for the disaster.

At that moment, a hand appeared around her waist and exerted an opposing force to support her falling body. Thanks to that support, Amelie eventually found her balance and straightened up. As she turned to thank the other person, she saw Leo’s calm face.
