A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 278

Amelie smiled and looked at Blake, who also happened to be grinning at her.

Both of them did not want to invite trouble for themselves, nor did they bother to explain anything. Amelie only gave Fiona an ambiguous response. “Why don’t you venture a guess?”

Fiona giggled. “For some reason, even though both of you look intimate, something is lacking between you two.”

“Can you get me some water, Leo?” Ellen was heard asking softly. Her childish voice was piercing.

All of them were startled, and they couldn’t help but turn to look at her.

Although they were aware that there would be a newcomer, they hadn’t seen her before. When they saw how Ellen was dressed up like a princess, coupled with the fact that her expression and voice were that of an inexperienced girl, they were surprised.

Where is this woman from? Does Mr. Alston like this kind of pretentious woman?

When a crew member heard that she needed water, he promptly passed her a water bottle.

However, Ellen wasn’t willing to take it. She snuggled up to Leo and demanded, “I want you to take it for me, Leo.”

Everyone was stunned.

Oblivious to their awkward expressions, Leo took the water bottle from the crew member and opened the cap.

As though he was worried that Ellen might dampen her clothes, he asked for a cup and filled it with water for her.

An elated Ellen said, “You’re the best, Leo!”

Then, she took the cup and drank the water.

Following that, Leo kept filling the cup for her until she said she was no longer thirsty.

Certainly, the videographer wouldn’t miss such a scene as he found the right angle and started recording them.

Amelie was standing nearby. When she saw what was going on, her gaze darkened.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Blake asked worriedly.

Then, he pointed to the side. “It’s humid here. Why don’t we get some rest under the tree?”

“Okay.”

They then shuffled forward and sat down on the chairs with their backs to the crowd.

The moment Amelie took a seat, she saw Blake passing a water bottle to her.

“Thanks,” she said with a smile.

Blake pressed his lips together and looked down at the ground. “Do you still feel sad?”

“Huh?” Amelie was taking a sip of water when she heard that. It wasn’t until a moment later that she realized what he was talking about. With a smile, she shook her head. “No.”

Despite what she said, the worry on Blake’s face never faded.

A helpless Amelie explained, “We’re divorced. Regardless of how many women are by his side, it has nothing to do with me anymore. I still have a bright future ahead, so why should I feel sad over something meaningless?”

She was just slightly surprised.

After all, Leo wasn’t a man who would be excessively gentle to a woman.

Back then, he only connived at Elyse’s wrongdoings, but he never served her water before.

“You have a point.” Blake nodded in agreement.

“Ouch! It hurts!”

Just then, someone exclaimed from behind them.

They turned their heads at the same time and saw Leo and Ellen standing behind them.

The moment Amelie met Leo’s eyes, she realized that his face was livid.

Why is he acting like that? Did he hear what I said? Is he mad at me?

“Leo, my head aches badly.” Ellen looked pitifully at Leo and touched her forehead, her eyelashes fluttering.

“Alright.” Without saying anything else, Leo carried her and walked away.

Amelie was stunned.

Was he livid because Ellen had a headache? He’s usually an indifferent man, but he lost his cool when Ellen was in pain. It seems that I’ve underestimated his love for her.

Presently, Ellen stuck close to Leo as she wrapped her arms around his waist. The man supported her weight with his strong arms, and he wasn’t bothered by the attention at all.

“I guess he really loves her.” Amelie sighed.

“Something seems off.” Fiona came over and took Amelie’s hand as they watched Leo leave. There was no doubt she had beautiful eyes.

For some reason, she felt that Leo was only carrying Ellen to make someone jealous.

Meanwhile, Fabian stood in the distance. He wanted to approach them, but he seemed worried.

A moment later, he came up to Blake and spoke to him.

Amelie noticed that even though he was talking to Blake, he was stealing glances at Fiona.

In truth, she already realized that something was going on between Fiona and Fabian when they were shooting the previous episode. Nonetheless, Fabian took the initiative to talk to her most of the time while Fiona rarely responded to him.
