A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 267

“Please get up.”

Amelie quickly snapped back to her senses and went to help him up.

Although they were in a private room, it would not do to have a man be seen kneeling in front of her.

It was just so very awkward.

Mr. Hampton remained kneeling on the floor as he wiped the sweat off his forehead with his hand. “Miss Foxy, I am only begging you because I am out of options. You have told me you want to quit, but both Blake and Mr. Alston immediately said they would quit as well. If they quit, Miss Alston would quit too. Naturally, Miss Clayton… would not stay. With five people suddenly missing, my show cannot go on.”

If it were anyone else, it would be fine. However, these five people dominated the discussion around the show.

“You also know that our show is under immense pressure. Even if we find replacements in time, they might not be able to keep the ratings high. The studio executives might cut our show short too. Can you please find it in yourself to reconsider leaving the show?”

His words shocked her.

She did not expect such a huge chain reaction to happen just because she was quitting the show.

She might have guessed Blake would quit.

But why would Leo quit too?

Was he not in the show because of Elyse? The show had only just started. Why would he leave?

“Even if I rejoin the show, it will not solve the problem.” She shrugged.

It was hard to make a forest out of a single tree.

“It will! Trust me!” He bounced to his feet while continuously wiping the sweat off his brows. “Just your 100 million fans would be enough to boost our entire studio’s ratings.”

In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say they could boost up three television studios.

Mr. Hampton envied her so much.

Why was he not as capable as she was?

How amazing it was to be able to uphold the ratings of multiple television studios.

She was praised and worshiped wherever she went, unlike him. He had to grovel to everyone just to get some investors interested.

His mind was filled with jealousy at the fantastical image of Foxy being responsible for multiple television studios’ ratings at once.

“I’ll be honest, Miss Foxy. You were the one who wanted to join our show. We were fully staffed back then, but I still kicked out some actors just so we have space for you. You cannot abandon us now.” Mr. Hampton had multiple tricks up his sleeve.

Nevertheless, it was enough to render her speechless.

“How about this? I will convince Blakey to come back. Once he is back, Jodie will surely come back. You can also call Elyse and personally invite her. She will surely agree as well.”

Elyse was at the phase where she needed to rebuild her reputation. ‘Show Your Love’ was a good opportunity for her.

No matter why Elyse left, Amelie was certain she could lure Elyse back to the show.

“As for Mr. Alston, I cannot help you there.”

When he heard that she could persuade Blake to return to the show, which would draw more people back to the show, his face looked much more pleasant.

He had only planned to persuade her today.

It seemed like his task was an extraordinary success.

“Let me thank you beforehand, Miss Foxy.” He clutched his hands around hers and looked at her as if she was his savior. “No matter what, I still hope you can reconsider your decision.”

Her viewer ratings were enough to boost several studios. How could he bear to let that go?

As Amelie forced an agreement to her lips, she sensed a strong stare directed at her.

She looked up and, through the glass walls of the room, she saw a man walking toward her.

Leo?

There was the usual blank look on his face. The only emotion seen on it was a solemn look.
