A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 277

Blake did not care about Leo’s rage, nor did he bother to look at the others. Amelie was the only one in his eyes.

“Let’s go.”

He didn’t explain or blame her for anything, as though the farce earlier had never happened.

“Sure.” Amelie looked up at him gratefully and let him lug her forward with his arm around her shoulder.

The reporters couldn’t help but move to the sides and let them pass.

‘Damn! I was spooked. It didn’t happen, after all.’

Everything was on live stream, and the netizens started commenting enthusiastically.

‘They must be out of their minds to think that Foxy has hooked up with Mr. Alston. She and Blakey are partners.’

‘It was all Elyse’s fault for spouting nonsense.’

‘She must have done so intentionally. It’s not like it’s her first time slandering Foxy.’

‘I heard that she has tried to tarnish Foxy’s reputation on several occasions.’

‘Really? We should get to the bottom of it, then.’

…

As Elyse went through the comments that cursed at her and threatened to find out her wrongdoings, her face paled in horror.

She pressed her hands against her thighs and balled up her fists.

Initially, she thought that after she gave an explanation, the others would think that Leo and Amelie had joined forces to oppress her and that she was still the victim.

However, everything changed upon Blake’s arrival.

There wasn’t a need for Amelie to explain anything, and everyone believed that she was innocent.

My plan has failed again!

Although Elyse felt dejected, she wouldn’t dare to let her emotions show on her face. She then approached Leo, her body trembling slightly.

Leo did not look at anyone, nor did he move a muscle. Nonetheless, his gaze was as sharp as a knife.

Elyse felt as though a knife had been jabbed into her heart, causing her horrendous pain.

With a pale face, she stood in front of Leo and said, “I’m sorry for not making myself clear earlier, Leo. What I meant was that I intended to give the chance to someone else.”

Leo didn’t bother to spare her a glance as he walked away.

This time, no one stood up for her, nor did anyone find her piteous.

They were not fools. Elyse could’ve explained it clearly early on, but she only did so after a series of things happened.

It was apparent that she was trying to frame her opponent.

“Leo.”

Just then, a clear voice was heard calling out to the man.

The next moment, a woman in a chiffon dress with floral patterns got out of Elyse’s white van.

She had long silky hair with a pink hairband over her head. Some strands of hair stuck close to her cheeks, making her look as dreamy as a princess.

She was the one who called out to Leo in a sweet voice.

The woman could run so fast that she reached Leo in a moment.

She took Leo’s fingers with both hands and kept shaking his hand. “Why did you walk so fast, Leo? I had to run after you.”

“Who is that?”

The woman’s appearance instantly attracted everyone’s attention as they looked at the duo’s hands.

It seemed that they were pretty close.

Elyse strode forward and patted the woman’s shoulder with a smile. “She’s the one I’ve been talking about. Her name is Ellen Clayton, and she’s my sister.”

As though not hearing her, Ellen focused on Leo’s face.

She batted her big alluring eyes at the man. Unlike how sedate a mature woman was supposed to be, she behaved like a young kid.
