When I Was A Wallflower Chapter 355 Leo, Do You Think a Boy or a Girl Is Better?
She recovered within seconds and continued pouring.
“No.No? Amelie studied her carefully.
Julia was already laughing it off.
“See, you keep interrupting me, and it has interrupted the flow of water.Coffee is delicate and finicky; if you don’t pour water at once, it will become sour.I was about to show you my extraordinary abilities and treat you to an exquisite cup of coffee, but I’ve failed.”
With her animated expression, she didn’t look like something had happened to her.
“Please do tolerate it even if it’s sour.”
She handed Amelie the cup of coffee.
“You know that I’m unrefined and only would engage in such a delicate habit once in a blue moon.I don’t have the talent cither, so don’t expect too much.
“Of course not.”
Amelie lowered her head to sip her coffee.
Nothing was added to it, and she couldn’t taste anything besides the intense bitterness.
When she finished her coffee, she remembered her purpose for coming and pressed the documents she was holding into Julia’s palm.She said seriously, “Jules, I may have founded Starlight Media, but both of us did the work.You have sacrificed so much, even more than I have.I already asked the lawyer to draft a transfer agreement of fifty percent of the company shares, so I hope you will accept it.”
“Elie, what are you doing? Didn’t I mention that Starlight Media made me famous? I’ve already gotten what I want, so I don’t want your shares.”
Amelie pressed her hand to stop her from moving.
“Your contributions aside, we are still best friends who are even closer than blood sisters.You’re getting married soon, so consider this your dowry or my blessing for you and Samuel.If you see me as family, you have to accept it!”
Just as she finished speaking, Julia’s tears rolled down her face uncontrollably.
Julia rarely cried, and Amelie was stunned since it had been very long since Julia cried this hard.
“Elie, you are the best since you always look after me.However, it’s okay.There’s no need for this.”
It was a while before Julia continued, “I’ve already broken up with him.”
“Why did you guys break up?”
Julia sobbed for some time before finally taking a tissue to wipe away her tears.
“Do you still remember Miss Gage from before? She’s Samuel’s sister.”
The reminder made Amelie recall the two executives whom she had met in disguise.
In particular, Miss Gage seemed cold and proud whenever she looked at Julia.She had her suspicions and asked Julia about it, but the other woman might not have told the truth.
“Did their family forbid you from being with him?”
Amelie inquired, her tone more frigid than before.
Julia nodded.
“Miss Gage somehow managed to discover what happened back then, blamed me for it, and claimed I did not deserve Samuel.It would have been fine if only she shared this sentiment, but Samuel has also lost interest in our relationship.He went behind my back and went for a matchmaking session: “Did Miss Gage tell you that?”
Amelie felt Samuel wouldn’t be that sort of person.
The three of them had known each other for many years, and she considered him to be humble, honest, and sort of a brother figure.
Julia shook her head.
“You know that while I have a short temper, I won’t fall for claims that easily.Miss Gage took me to the matchmaking ceremony herself.The other girl’s parents seemed satisfied with him and were discussing their marriage”
“If Samuel didn’t want to be with me, he could’ve just said so, but secretly going on a blind date…I cannot accept this.”
Julia’s usually sharp features were now filled with hurt and bitterness.
“I didn’t make a scene though.No matter what, Samuel did have a relationship with me before.I raised my glass and blessed them”
Julia smiled slightly.
“Elie, I’m like you now.I am free and have nothing to worry about”
Amelie looked at Julia somberly.
The woman might have grown up in a village, but her parents had been important officials which gave her a proud attitude.
Being brought there like that was akin to humiliation.
Amelie felt sympathetic and hugged her.
“Don’t worry, you still have me.”
“Okay.”
Julia buried her face in her shoulder as tears ran down her cheeks again.She had been pretending to be unbothered about it and acted as careless as usual, but no one knew how heartbroken she was.
Amelie’s warm hug made her feel like she had found her family, so she let everything out.
When she was done crying, her mood improved drastically.
