A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 333

Chapter 333 Disowned

Amelie was busy with work for the next few days.

Thankfully, Steven was back from his trip, relieving much of her burden.

She was busy with both Knowlit and her streams.

Knowlit was booming, and there was a lot of interest from research groups.

She had no choice but to hire a few professionals for quality control.

With more quality content being produced, the platform’s business was soaring. Investors were all interested in it and tried to convince her to go public.

Not wanting to expand too fast, she rejected all of their suggestions.

Meanwhile, she made a few tweaks to the site to improve the user interface and increase the variety of content available.

In the blink of an eye, two weeks passed.

After all that work was over, she generously gave herself two days off from work.

She was thinking about how to make use of her vacation time.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed with a message.

‘Come to the Walsh Building.’

It was an unknown number.

She stared at it for ages, but she could not think of just who could have sent her that message.

However, she was familiar with the Walsh Building.

That was where Toby’s company, Walsh Residence, was located.

Did that mean Toby sent her the message?

She called Toby, wanting to confirm her guess.

He did not answer the phone.

Worried that it was urgent, she did not spend too much time pondering. She informed Steven before swiftly jumping into her car and driving over to the Walsh Building.

It was an hour’s drive from Halport to Clouson City.

However, she had cut it down to thirty minutes.

As soon as she arrived at the building, she swung the car around in a beautiful arc to slide her car into a narrow parking lot.

She was about to grab her bag and get out of the car.

At that moment, she saw a car stop right in front of her.

The driver swiftly got out and opened one of the doors to allow a middle-aged man to step out.

He was dressed in a fine suit.

Meanwhile, another man stepped out of the car from the other side.

The man was dressed entirely in white with his somewhat long hair tied up in a ponytail to frame the gentle curves of his face.

It was Toby.

“Think carefully. What happened between you and Leo Alston?” the middle-aged man sternly asked Toby. Despite looking very similar to Toby, he looked extremely strict.

She instantly knew who he was.

He was Toby’s father, Theodore Walsh.

The two men had yet to spot Amelie and her car. They were fully focused on each other.

Toby silently pursed his lips. His usually smiling eyes were drooping and staring down at the ground while his shoulders were hunched over.

When Theodore saw that, his anger only grew as he barked out in a harsher tone of voice, “We have always worked well with the Alstons, yet today he suddenly canceled our collaboration, specifically your project. Don’t tell me this has nothing to do with you!”

Uncontrollable rage rang in his voice and his eyes looked fierce.

Toby helplessly pursed his lips and huffed in silent agreement.

Theodore slammed his hand against the car window. “You’re such a useless failure! Now that the Alstons have canceled our contract, our necks are on the line! If things do not improve, the entire project will fail. Think carefully; the company will suffer a great loss once the few hundred million dollars project fails. If you can’t resolve this matter, your grandfather will disown you.”

Then, without a second glance at Toby, he stomped into the office building.

Toby raised his eyebrows in helplessness as he combed his long fingers through his hair. As he turned around, he spotted her.

“Why are you here?” he asked in surprise with an awkward look on his face.

Ah, so he was not the one who messaged her.

She was certain of that.

She silently got out of her car and walked over to him. “My apologies. I did not mean to overhear your conversation.”

He ducked his head down and gave her a smile that was somewhat bitter and somewhat embarrassed.
