A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Clear Your Mind

Melissa was also shocked that Leo would ask Jodie to move out. At that moment, Melissa panicked and asked, “What exactly did Jojo do? Why are you treating her like this?”

When Jodie saw that Melissa was helping her, she quickly knelt in front of Melissa. “Leo hates me, Mom!” Her eyes were teary as she cried.

Hearing her words, Melissa hugged her in distress. Although Jodie was usually stubborn and careless, she was still Melissa’s daughter. Moreover, Jodie would listen to her, so she felt more comfortable being around Jodie than with Leo.

“You can’t do this, Leo. Are you trying to kill your own sister? Do you hate her that much?” Melissa looked at Leo disapprovingly.

When Leo heard her words, he wasn’t angry about it. Putting on a stoic expression, he waved at the door. At that moment, Eugene, who was standing by the door, immediately walked over and handed him a file. After Leo had taken the file, he placed it on the table and said, “Take a look at it.”

At that moment, both Melissa and Jodie were confused.

While Jodie was looking at Leo, Melissa picked up the file and took out what was inside. After looking at it, her expression changed drastically.

Seeing that Melissa’s expression had changed, Jodie turned around and asked, “What is it, Mom?”

However, Melissa didn’t respond to her. Instead, she raised her hand and slapped Jodie across the face. Her eyes were filled with anger. “You are such a useless person! Look at what you did!”

Jodie’s face turned to the side, and her ears were buzzing. She saw stars from being slapped by Melissa. Immediately, Jodie covered her cheek and looked at Melissa in disbelief. “Mom…” As she spoke, tears fell from her eyes. “Do you hate me too?”

“You are indeed not clear-headed. I think it’s time for you to go abroad and cool off!” announced Melissa as she threw the file toward her.

Jodie lowered her head and looked at it. Her face went pale when she saw what was written on it, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. “This… How can this…” she mumbled.

What was being put in the file was none other than the evidence that she had framed Amelie.

Jodie couldn’t figure out where it went wrong. She couldn’t understand how Leo knew that it was her! After all, it was the perfect plan that she meticulously planned.

Her hands trembled vigorously as she looked at the evidence with a horrified expression.

“I told you many times to stay put and stop messing around. You never listen!” Melissa glared at her angrily.

Melissa never really cared about the news on the Internet. Plus, no one dared to gossip in front of her because of Leo. Hence, only now did she know that Jodie had framed Amelie multiple times.

“The plane is ready. Send her to the airport!” Leo nodded toward Eugene and walked up the stairs after finishing his words.

“Yes, sir.” Eugene nodded.

Hearing that Leo was going to send her away, Jodie was terrified. “No. I don’t want to leave. Mom… I don’t want to leave!” She shook her head vigorously.

“Miss Alston.” Eugene walked toward Jodie. “You know how Mr. Alston is. You can’t change his mind.” As he spoke, he sighed inwardly and thought, Jodie is a beautiful woman, but she is a no-brainer. Even if there is nothing between Amelie and Leo, it is a challenge to frame Amelie, not to mention that she is now something Leo cherishes. If she can’t understand this, she might as well take it as a lesson to be learned.
