A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 11

“I will take all the medium-sized clothes in this store!” “What?!” Jodie blurted in disbelief.

Even if Julia didn’t manage to buy the store, Jodie was pissed off. I am a size medium! Julia is clearly doing this to prohibit me from buying clothes in this store!

The staff ignored her as one of them hurriedly replied, “Right away, Miss White!” From the staff’s point of view, there was nothing wrong with the guests purchasing the clothes they wanted.

Furthermore, they wouldn’t be offending Jodie by doing so and could reach their sales target this month after Julia’s shopping spree.

Hence, they were more than willing to wrap all the medium-sized clothes for her.

Although there was only one medium-sized item for each piece of clothing in the store, it still cost her about two hundred thousand, which was the price of a house in a small city.

When Jodie saw that Julia had successfully avenged Amelie without batting an eye, she stomped her feet in resentment.

Even so, she couldn’t do anything about it.

Thus, she had no choice but to leave the store angrily.

“It’s not worth wasting your money for an irrelevant woman like Jodie.” Amelie only voiced her opinion when they departed the boutique.

She truly didn’t take someone as trivial as Jodie seriously.

Julie lazily conveyed her disagreement with Amelie’s statement, “She dares to be so arrogant simply because the Alstons are wealthy.

I just want to let her know that wealth means nothing to you.

Hey, if you didn’t hide the fact that you were a wealthy lady and crushed them with your wealth back then, they probably would have been the ones pandering to your every need so as to curry favor from you in the past four years!” In conclusion, Julia could never forget Amelie’s sufferings all these years.

Amelie could be as forgiving as she wanted, but even she couldn’t begrudge Julia in holding a grudge.

Little did people know, Amelie wasn’t just a certified live streamer with millions of fans.

She also owned Starlight Media.

On the other hand, Julia was just managing the company on her behalf.

Amelie merely flashed her a bitter smile.

It wasn’t that she didn’t think about telling Leo the truth.

It was just that every time she wanted to speak to him, he turned and left, giving Amelie no chance to tell him anything at all.

Then, as time went by, she felt that there was indeed no point in telling him anything at all.

… Leo came to Toby’s house late at night.

Toby’s elder sister just gave birth to a daughter, and today was the day they threw a baby shower for the newborn.

Leo leaned against the sofa as he saw Toby’s brother-in-law, Jimmy Goldstein, bustling around the living room while holding the baby girl in his arms.

He didn’t mind the baby getting his expensive suit stained as he clumsily changed the baby’s diaper.

This scene made Leo suddenly think of his daughter, Bria. As far as I recall, it seems that I have never changed her diaper.

My heart was only full of anger and hatred back then, considering how Amelie forced me to marry her.

Later, the news of her pregnancy aggravated my humiliation and anger, making me more willing to spend time at work, which caused me to neglect Bria. Thinking of that, he asked Toby in a muffled voice, “Did I fail miserably as a father?” Toby immediately stopped drinking and looked at him straight in the eye.

“You failed miserably as a husband too.” Leo was taken aback for a while.

The next moment, he retorted hotly, “I never asked to be her husband!” Leo hated the despicable means Amelie used against him in order to force him to marry her.

Although Toby agreed with Leo, he merely nodded and continued, “Indeed, you never asked to be her husband.

But you will help a stranger when they are in trouble, won’t you? Back then, she bled profusely while giving birth to Bria.

Not to mention, Bria faced complications right after her birth.

Because of this, Amelie barely escaped death’s clutches.

When I saw her, she held Bria desperately, even though she was still pallid and sickly.

Despite that, she kept begging the doctor to take her blood and save Bria.
