A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 255

Everyone was herded to a minibus as the cameraman filmed. The celebrities stood at the minibus door, cooperating with the cameraman as they posed and discussed what the so-called ‘Love vs. Wild’ program was about. The host then held up his phone to broadcast the live situation and interacted with the fans watching on the live platform.

On the other hand, Amelie was not interested in gaining fame that way and avoided the cameras whenever possible. Then, she stayed in the restroom for a while, estimating that everyone had probably boarded the bus before she came out.

As she walked to the door, she unexpectedly saw a figure standing in the corridor smoking with his head down. The person seemed to have heard her footsteps and looked back, only to meet her gaze. His eyes were calm and indifferent but with a hint of depth, and his handsome face was as serious as ever. His thin lips parted to exhale slight smoke, adding a touch of sensuality to him.

Leo rarely smoked, so the sight surprised her. After a moment of daze, she nodded lightly as a greeting and walked past him. However, he followed her and asked, “Why did you suddenly want to participate in the program?”

His clear voice was slightly hoarse due to smoking. Amelie, momentarily taken aback by his inquiry, turned to face him. She didn’t expect him to ask this question because she didn’t believe that he had not seen the scene where Elyse was KO’d by her, so he was asking the obvious.

Since he wanted to play dumb, she would play dumb too.

The corners of her lips under her mask slightly curled up, “Is it wrong for me to increase my popularity?”

When she was done talking, she noticed a slight curve in Leo’s lips. He’s actually smiling! He could smile?

She was shocked and couldn’t figure out which sentence she had said that could touch his funny bone. In her memory, he had a high threshold for humor.

“Don’t get too close to Blake.” His voice came again with a hint of warning. “Bria must only recognize me as her father, and there can be no one else except me.”

Is Leo suspecting that something is going on between Blake and me? Is he an idiot? He flaunted his new relationship and went out to protect Elyse, but he wanted me to stay chaste and be an excellent mother to his child?

“Hmph!” Amelie sarcastically snorted. Regardless of whether or not I ever decide to date again, I will not listen to his advice because he lacks credibility.

Without even wanting to say another word to him, she turned her head and walked toward the bus. There wasn’t much room on the bus, and soon all available seats were taken except Elyse and Jodie’s. Nonetheless, she didn’t want to sit with these two, so she walked to the last row of seats. There were five seats, and Blake had already taken one. Seeing her, he smiled shyly and pointed to the window seat beside him. That was the one he had thoughtfully reserved for her.

However, she walked over without much thought. Before she could sit down, her arm was grabbed, and her body was forcefully pulled away. A figure then bumped past her left shoulder and sat in the seat.

“I have motion sickness, so I want to sit here.”

Thus, Amelie was thrown off balance and nearly fell, but Blake caught her in time. When she glanced over, she noticed that Jodie was competing with her for the seat. Then, Jodie lifted her chin and crossed her arms, looking like a spoiled little princess.

Seeing that, Amelie furrowed her brow but didn’t want to make a scene, so she looked for another seat.
