A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29 It Hits Differently When You Have a Man to Take Care of You

“I’m only giving you one night.” Leo lowered his head to look at his watch.

“At 9.00AM tomorrow, I expect you to personally send Bria right to the entrance of the Alston Residence.”

He didn’t mention what would happen if Amelie were late.

After all, she had been married to him for four years and had always observed him before that, so she was familiar with his tactics.

This man had always been cruel and ruthless toward his enemies.

With that, Leo turned around and left.

His silhouette was resolute and cold.

As Amelie gazed at his receding figure, a forlorn smile flashed across her face.

This man was stubborn, cold-blooded, and self-centered.

How did she fall for him in the first place?

…

“Alston came to you to talk about Bria’s custody?”

It wasn’t until they had their meal and Bria returned to her room that Julia asked about this.

Amelie nodded, her heart heavy-laden.

She relayed everything Leo said before he left.

“F*ck!” When Julia heard that Leo had threatened Amelie, she cursed again.

“Even if the entire world is full of saints in Alston’s eyes, you are the only sinner he could never forgive!”

Julia was so furious that she kept scratching the table, pretending that the furniture was Leo.

“You only have to ask around to know who’s in the wrong in this matter.

Leo is blind beyond belief.

If you had known it would be like this, you should’ve ignored him and let him be blind for life! It’s no big deal to be physically blind, but having your heart blinded is irredeemable!”

Julia looked at Amelie, her heart aching for her.

Not many people knew that Amelie indeed had extremely poor vision in one eye.

For the sake of a wretched man like Leo, she had offered an unthinkable sacrifice!

Still, knowing that the past would only cause Amelie more sorrow, Julia eventually restrained herself.

She came over to hold Amelie’s hands.

“What are you planning to do now? Do you have any plans?”

If they took it to court, the agreement in Amelie’s possession wouldn’t be much help.

Amelie had asked Melissa to sign the agreement because she knew Melissa prioritized her pride.

Furthermore, Melissa would be too proud to take back her words after signing them.

Amelie had devised many plans, but she forgot to guard against Leo.

He had already agreed to let Amelie have the child, but now he had changed her mind.

She stayed silent, a frown on her face.

Julia couldn’t fathom what she was thinking.

“I think if he wants to take it to court, we’ll accept the challenge! We have evidence on our hands, so why would we be afraid that we wouldn’t win?” Julia decisively announced, grabbing her phone to contact a lawyer.

“Don’t!” Amelie hastily grabbed her hand.

“Don’t take it to court.”

“Amy, this isn’t about whether we’re willing to take it to court.

Instead, we know for sure that Leo will definitely sue us!” Julia reminded her.

Then, Julia’s heart ached again.

“I know you don’t want to face him in court, and you don’t want your relationship to end like this.”

Amelie had sacrificed so much in the beginning, but things had turned out like this.

No average person would have endured this.

“I don’t care how my relationship ends, but Bria is different,” she said, her voice exceedingly calm.

“There was no need for her to be stuck between us and snatched back and forth.”

“So, I will never take it to court for Bria’s sake.” Amelie had made up her mind.

“But if this continues, our only option is to let Bria go.” Julia was anxious again.

“No.”

Amelie brushed back her hair and pulled Julia closer, then began whispering…

…

“Leo, do you mean it? Is Amelie really going to send Bria back today?”

At the Alston Residence, Jodie had just received this news, so she hastily went to him for confirmation.

Melissa, who had a dark expression on her face throughout the night, finally recovered and looked at Jodie.

“Your brother still hasn’t gone to work at this hour, and that’s because he’s waiting for Bria.

It couldn’t have been fake.”

“That’s great!”

Getting her confirmation, Jodie was so elated that she was about to leap in joy.

Her plans finally worked!
