My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126

Amelie and Julia were discussing their project with the person in charge at their company when someone came closer and whispered something to Julia.

“Please excuse me.” She patted Amelie’s shoulder.

“Alright.” Amelie smiled.

After Julia was gone, Amelie politely nodded at the client and said, “Perhaps I should take over and explain more about the company’s project to you.”

“Haven’t you been a housewife the entire time. Miss Dillon? I didn’t expect you to start crossing the line and interfering with Starlight Media’s affairs so soon. Before the client could say anything, they were interrupted by someone else.

When Amelie turned around, she saw a lady’s face with heavy makeup, and her long, blue dress with sparkling embroidery on it tapered down to the floor.

However, Amelie didn’t know who that person was. She did not recognize her face, but even so, she could tell from her words that the woman hadn’t come with friendly intentions. Furthermore, the fact that the woman mentioned Amelie’s past as a housewife while accusing her of overstepping her authority instantly cast doubts on her capability. As expected, the client fixed his gaze on Amelie skeptically, making it seem as though he didn’t quite believe in her.

Nevertheless, Amelie wasn’t fazed at all. Instead, she reacted with a bright smile on her face. “Well, people who do live broadcasts all the time typically ‘cross the line, you know. Many of them used to be construction workers, farmers, or even homeless people before they got into the business, but guess what? They’re still who they are, which doesn’t change the fact that they’re still well-liked, don’t you think so? Moreover, with all the rising demands and expectations in modern society, you can’t blame those people for doing so, can you? After all, that’s how surprises are made.”

“Precisely! I agree with you, Miss Dillon. The reason why I love working with Starlight Media is that you’re bold enough to cross the lines with your broadcasts. By doing so, it can prove to everyone else in our country that nothing is impossible, as well as why people in this business are so popular.” The client declared his admiration for Amelie despite his initial doubts.

At that moment, he was even more impressed by Amelie, not to mention his endorsement of Starlight Media’s reputation for excellence. “You may have been a housewife back then, but I’m sure you’re smart. For that, no one should discriminate against housewives in this modern era.”

“Um…” The woman had a pale face, seemingly caught off guard by Amelie’s witty reply. Despite her embarrassment, she wasn’t about to give up. “I didn’t mean to discriminate against housewives, but Miss Dillon has never learned any basic commercial principles before. As far as I’m concerned, her father is only a shoe maker with humble origins, which was why he couldn’t afford the best education for her. Because of that, I’m afraid you have a long way to go to become the decent person you think you are, and I doubt you’re

While you may be able to talk your way out or close the deal with your client, you also need to be observant and keen with your judgment…”

The woman went on and on about her point, glaring at Amelie. “Anyway, I don’t think you’ve heard any of this, have you, Miss Dillon?” She intentionally raised her voice, knowing the audio engineer was right beside her with the microphone turned on. Therefore, her words could be heard by everyone else around the place.

In that instant, Amelie quickly found herself surrounded by several people as though she were in the spotlight. Not long after that, even the passers-by got curious and walked closer to have a look at what was going on when they saw the scene. While everyone else was waiting for what would unfold next, the person, who stated his admiration for Amelie, started to doubt her once again.

Meanwhile, Jodie was sipping some wine from a glass as she watched the scene from afar, her eyes smiling. Since she was concerned about her status and the Alston Family’s image, she hired a woman to insult Amelie in her place as she was determined to catch Amelie off guard. I know what you’re up to, Amelie. You want to earn everyone’s approval with this chance, don’t you? Well, I’m going to make sure everyone remembers your ineptitude instead. In the end, you will be responsible for Starlight Media’s downfall.
