With that thought, Amelie shook her head. No, Leo wouldn’t do such a childish thing, so he must be waiting for someone.
As a result, she did not intend to pay any attention to him and continued forward. When she arrived before Leo, he straightened his back and left the railway to stand before her. His deep eyes landed on her figure. “That man isn’t a fit for you.”
She was speechless. Although she had no intention of getting into a relationship with Matthew, having Leo point out her private matters made her feel uneasy.
A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face as she rebuked, “Mr. Alston, you’re crossing the line.”
Leo looked silently at her and found her smile cold and offended. Is it because I criticized that man?
He did not know Matthew’s name but remembered who Matthew was. He was the man who was always following behind Amelie back at Quinn Town. Now, he chased after her to Clouson City.
Combining what Amelie said and how she let that man hold her hand, Leo reckoned she had feelings for that man. That guy not only looks meh, but his career is also… meh. His entire existence screams ‘basic’, so what does she see in him?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. His face darkened like storm clouds, and an oppressive aura spread about several feet to their surroundings!
Suddenly, Amelie could feel the oppressive atmosphere and shivered. Why do I feel so cold?
At first, she thought Leo would act like he usually did and leave without saying anything, but who would have thought he would continue to stand before her like a statue?
“I just want to remind you that you have Bria with you, so it’s not suitable for you to marry a man who’s stepping into his first marriage.” In an instant, Leo’s voice became ice cold.
His words… He’s clearly saying that I’m divorced, so I don’t deserve to marry someone like Matthew. Fortunately, I have no intentions with Matthew. Or else, I might’ve been discouraged.
His words resembled a fishbone lodged in her throat; it was stuck in her throat, neither going up nor down, making it utterly uncomfortable to reply.
Not wanting to say another word to him, Amelie walked past him and left.
When she arrived at Julia’s office, she saw Julia crossing both her legs on her chair, indecently swirling it in circles. Also, she had one hand lazily propping one side of her head while looking at something in her other hand.
When she saw Amelie, she giggled and walked over. “Have you heard? Elyse has been living a hellish life recently. Not only is her manager ignoring her, but all her resources have also been taken away by newbies. Also, there’s been news that she even fought with a newbie. Someone happened to catch it on camera and posted it on the Internet. The few remaining geeky fans she had have now made a change of heart and unfollowed her social media accounts.”
Since Amelie was busy with matters about their platform and had no interest in entertainment news, she did not know about Elyse’s recent situation.
Then, Julia reached out her arm and showed her the video.
Amelie looked down and watched the video of Elyse fighting another person without caring about her image. The Elyse inside the video was no longer the same elegant woman but shrewd!
Also, the viral video gave the netizens another look at how she was in real life. Henceforth, her image plummeted, and the internet was filled with criticism of her.
