Chapter 118
Right at that moment, the woman standing before Jodie’s eyes was none other than Amelie herself. Amelie stood still and stared at Jodie while Jodie felt her heart pounding with uneasiness. Previously, Jodie’s research told her that Amelie had no connection to Starlight Media’s boss. She figured Amelie and Julia were the ones who started those rumors on their own.
Jodie was practically blinded by rage after her last encounter with Amelie, so she decided to pressure Carla to hunt down the wife of Starlight Media’s boss. Jodie was genuinely shocked when Carla managed to complete her task. “I’ll always be with Starlight Media’s boss, Amelie uttered cryptically.
Technically speaking, Amelie was Starlight Media’s owner, so she wasn’t exactly lying. However, since Jodie didn’t know she was speaking to Amelie and that Amelie was actually Starlight Media’s boss, Jodie had a completely different interpretation of Amelie’s words. She was shocked as she immediately assumed that the woman before her eyes had yet to divorce her husband.
Jodie panicked for a moment, but she quickly realized how this could work much better in her favor. She had to stop herself from clapping and cheering in excitement. “Well, that gives you more reason not to tolerate such nonsense! Did you know that Amelie and her friend, Julia, keep making claims in your husband’s name? They think they can do such things just because the public hasn’t met your husband. They claimed that Amelie is your husband’s girlfriend and even said you and your husband got a divorce because of her.” Jodie continued yapping as a malicious look surfaced in her eyes. “She was also the one who claimed that the child belongs to your husband. She really has no limits!”
In actual fact, Jodie was probably the one who had no limits. Amelie was utterly disgusted by the smug look on her face. Leo was a relatively successful man, and the Alston Family was one of the most influential families in Clouson City. Aren’t they ashamed to have a sister like Jodie? Amelie wondered.
Jodie was worried that the lady in front of her would hold back from attacking Amelie, so she continued to reveal more about Amelie’s background. “Amelie is the daughter of a cobbler, and she wants to cling to a rich man because she doesn’t like how poor her family is. Did you know that she even tried to trick my brother into sleeping with her? She contacted the reporters and forced my brother to marry her in front of those reporters! That was why my brother ended up ditching his girlfriend of many years to marry her.”
Jodie was extremely skilled in constructing fibs. Amelie simply stared at Jodie and allowed her to continue talking. “However, my brother later divorced her because she was too promiscuous. I can’t believe she’s going. for your husband now. She’s trying to tear you two apart! I’m speaking from experience when I say that she’s going to step all over you and ruin your family!”
“That’s pretty mean of her,” Amelie uttered in a lazy tone to play along with Jodie. It seems like I was being too nice when I just got Melissa to lecture her previously. “Exactly! So, you can’t let her go so easily!” Jodie was excited to hear that the other woman agreed with her words.
“So, what do you think I should do?” Amelie asked.
Jodie’s mind began to spin at top speed. I have to think of a way to crush Amelie under my feet. I want to make her regret her actions! “You should separate her from her kid. She’s using the kid to urge your husband to marry her, so she won’t be able to do anything if her kid disappears!” Amelie chuckled to herself right after hearing Jodie’s words. She sure is an evil woman, she thought. She’s trying to break my heart by taking my child away
“There’s one other thing I forgot to mention-Amelie ran a DNA test for her daughter and your husband. The results indicated that the child belongs to your husband! It’s clear that Amelie’s already planning all of this out! Jodie looked utterly pleased with herself. She had just delivered the final blow, and she was sure that it would work.
