When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

Chapter 313 Melissa Is Hopeless

Before Amelie had figured out anything, Julia called her.

"Something happened."

Under Julia's guidance, Amelie opened the webpage and saw the news about her. The news wrote, 'Foxy and the Heir of Alston Family, Leo Alston, Seen Entering the Same Hotel Room. They Seemed to Have Fallen in Love With Each Other After the Show.' Next, there were two pictures of them entering the room. A time was written on it, showing when they had entered.

Then, the content was filled with assumptions about their relationship and what they were doing there.

"No one has ever dared to post nonsense about the Alston Family. This must be someone's doing. Don't tell me that Leo is the one behind this?" On the other end of the phone, Julia was rattling.

Hearing her words, Amelie pursed her lips and looked at the picture with a darkened gaze. As her fingertips touched the picture, she said, "He won't do such a thing. It must be Melissa who did this." Although Leo had told her he would court her, with his personality, he would never do such a thing.

"Melissa? Is she crazy?" Julia was baffled.

Then, Amelie gave her a brief talk about how Melissa didn't know her true identity and wanted to ship her with Leo.

After hearing what Amelie had said, Julia couldn't help but curse. "F*ck! That damn b*tch! I bet she wanted you to be with Leo because of your fans. Who does she think she is? She threw you aside when you were nothing. Now, she wants to take advantage of you when you are famous. Does she think she is God? What makes her think everyone should listen to her?" Julia scolded angrily, throwing profanities at Melissa.

Although Amelie didn't want to get her suspicious of Melissa, she loathed Melissa's doings.

"F*ck!" Just as she was in thought, Julia cursed again. At that moment, Amelie snapped back to her senses and heard what Julia had said. "It really is her! Not only did she ask the media to publish such news, she even told them that she welcomed you into the Alston Family. S-She is hopeless!"

Hearing her words, Amelie lowered her head and saw a video that was just posted.

In the video, Melissa stood before the Alston Residence while the reporters surrounded her. She wore seasonal Chanel clothing and was holding a small purse. The press was throwing all kinds of questions at her while she gave a fake smile to the camera. "I am a fan of Foxy. If my son can be with her, I will wish them nothing but happiness."

When Amelie and Julia heard her words, they felt nauseous and almost threw up what they just ate. Amelie couldn't bear to watch the whole video and closed it immediately.

"Elie, that old hag is going overboard. I'm going to go to the Alston Residence now and give her a scolding!" Julia snapped.

"If you were to go there and find fault with her, Leo would hunt you down. If that happens, not even I can help you to get out of this mess," Amelie explained in a low voice. As one of the main characters in this matter, she was calmer than Julia, who was a bystander.

"I don't need you to save me!" Julia couldn't withstand how hideous Melissa was. She felt that Melissa was the root of all misery. Wanting her death, Julia would do anything, even if it cost her life.

Amelie knew Julia was doing this for her sake, so she was touched by her actions. However, she still said to her, "I'm not trying to save you, but myself. Now that things have reached this point, there won't be a big difference if you find Melissa."

"What else is there to do? I bet your fans are angry. Even if they don't send death threats to her, they would want an explanation from her!"

If Melissa were willing to explain to the others, she wouldn't have set this up.

Thinking about it, Amelie smiled somewhat smugly. "We don't need her to clarify things. I can do it myself."

"Clarify it yourself? What are you going to tell them?"

"The truth."

After hearing her word, Julia was confused. She knew that Amelie was smart and could think of a way to solve this problem. However, on second thought, she was worried that it would backfire. At that moment, with how shameless Melissa was, Amelie would be dragged into the Alston Family's affair. No matter what, she couldn't let her best friend get into this mess ever again.

Many thoughts ran through Julia's mind. At this moment, she heard Amelie's voice on the phone. "Don't worry. I will fix this."

…

In the meantime, in the meeting room. The meeting that started in the morning was still ongoing. Everyone was starving, but no one dared to say anything. Instead, they sat straight and kept their breaths light.

At the main seat, Leo had a serious expression as his hands rested against the armrest. "Is this the best you guys can think of a solution?" His long and slender fingers twitched as he spoke. His voice was as cold as ice.

Usually, employees were afraid of him. When he started to be stern, his presence was even more intimidating.
