A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290 He’s Mine

“Anyway, I’ll take the car then,” Amelie said as she was about to push herself up from her chair.

Halfway through, she heard his voice. “Your father is a shoemaker?”

“What?” She stopped her movement halfway, looking at him blankly.

Doesn’t he know about this already? Why would he ask about this again? What does he want?

She was just thinking when the car started moving.

Is it even worth it to miss the opportunity to ride in the same car with the woman you love just to ask these useless questions?

Amelie couldn’t help but roll her eyes and added, “My dad is a well-known shoemaker in Quinn Town. Everyone knows him.”

Only his ex-son-in-law still needed her confirmation until now.

“So, you’ve met me before?” Leo did not dwell on the question but asked her another one instead.

Amelie looked at him weirdly. Is Leo starting to remember me?

“I guess you could say that.” Her voice was noticeably much colder.

This question was obviously a trap. As soon as he asked this, she remembered all the foolish things she had done back then.

Her pretty face was gloomy and full of thoughts.

She was lost in her own world, completely unaware of the man beside her suddenly shaking as if struck by an unexpected blow.

The serious expression was slowly replaced by shock.

For the rest of the car ride, Amelie didn’t say another word to him. She simply closed her eyes and fell asleep.

It wasn’t until the car stopped that she woke up in a daze.

The man beside her got up and left without looking at her.

Amelie wiped the corner of her lips and felt the warmth on the side of her face. Even though she was asleep, she still had consciousness. In her sleep, she felt that she was leaning against something warm. It’s probably not Leo but the chair, right?

She thought so.

As Leo got out of the car, he touched his arm and felt the warmth left behind by Amelie. He could even feel the touch of her soft face still lingering on his arm.

He couldn’t help but smile a little.

Amelie followed everyone out of the car. She looked up and saw the towering and glorious gate of the Church of Faith that reached high into the sky.

She looked through the gate and saw ancient stone-carved altarpieces on both sides of the path.

The scent of the candle and the liturgical music in the background created a peaceful and serene atmosphere, which made her feel relaxed and extra calm. Church is a great place. No wonder a lot of people choose to find peace here.

Amelie admired the ancient architecture around her as she walked, feeling like she had traveled back to ancient times.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

It was Ellen who got off from another car.

Their car had arrived later than the bus. It was obvious that she ran all the way here, with her chest heaving and her breathing heavily.

She stared at Amelie with anger in her eyes. Amelie definitely was different from the weak and pitiful image from before.

“Foxy, how dare you interfere between me and Leo! You’re too much!” she complained angrily and pouted as she played a very convincing victim.

Amelie looked at her. She couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “Did Leo even publicly announce his relationship with you? If not, we’re just competing fairly, and I certainly did not interfere with both of you.” Her mischief took over her and she decided to make Ellen uncomfortable.

“You!” Ellen’s eyes immediately turned red and tears began to well up in them again.

Ha! It was just a moment of impulse. I wanted to mess with her for a bit. Indeed, she is quite the actress. Her tears came faster than I expected. With her talent, it’s such a pity that she’s not an actress.

Amelie even began to suspect that her foolishness was just an act.
