Chapter 91 How Shameless Can Elyse Be?
Amelie received a call from Julia at night.
“Do you want to know what I heard?” Julia started. “This world is a joke. I heard that Laura was demoted by Leo. And you know what was the reason for the demotion? Supposedly, she bribed a doctor to say that there was something wrong with Elyse’s eyes. And Elyse went along with it ‘against her will’ because she didn’t want to embarrass her best friend. Apparently, that was why she took the credit for all that farce about pretending to be the donor.”
“Not even a three-year-old would believe this! What’s even more bizarre is that that b*stard believed her and punished Laura! Seriously! It’s the joke of the century!”
Hearing Julia’s loud and clear voice dripping with mockery put a small smile on Amelie’s face.
This was not the first time she had witnessed Leo’s unreasonable trust and love for Elyse. It no longer surprised her. In fact, she was already immune to it.
“Did you call me just to tell me something that doesn’t help me in any way?” She didn’t want to hear about how Leo doted on Elyse.
Julia immediately boomed, “No, no, no! That’s not the only thing I’m calling you for. Something even stranger and more shameless than that is about to happen—Leo is holding a birthday party for Elyse!
“Heh, is he worried that others don’t know about Elyse cheating on him four years ago? This is like him trying to use this opportunity to remind everyone that. Is he dying to show people how eager he is to go back to his past love?”
“It might look that way to you, but to him, this is how he expresses his love for Elyse,” Amelie replied calmly.
One could only feel so much pain before they turned numb.
They were speaking of this like they were talking about some strangers.
Julia was in the middle of roaring and admonishing the couple when she suddenly slapped a palm on the tabletop. “F*ck! She’s never going to stop with her disgusting ways, huh? Do you know what I just got?”
“What is it?”
“An invitation letter. Elyse actually sent me and you an invitation to her birthday party. F*ck, how shameless can she be? What the hell does she want?”
Intrigued, the originally calm Amelie raised her eyebrows.
Even she thought that this was an interesting move Elyse was pulling.
“She probably wants to take the chance to show off her life while letting the whole city know that she already has Leo as her backer.”
Even though Elyse came from a fairly good family, her family was still far from Leo’s level.
Leo might have questionable taste in women, but he was born with a business mind.
In just a few years, he had brought Genesis Company to a whole new height. People like Toby, Ashton, and many famous families rushed to collaborate with him because of his unique vision in business.
Although the Alston Family’s ranking wasn’t disclosed, they were undoubtedly one of the best in this city.
“Tsk! What makes her think we would help her fulfill her wish to show off? Ain’t no way that’s happening!” Julia insisted, “I’ll send her the invitation letters back to her intact. That’ll give her a taste of what it feels like to be ignored.”
“No need for that,” Amelie hummed. “She sent the invitation because she thought we would cower and choose to not go. We’ll be playing by her rules if we don’t go.”
Julia immediately understood what Amelie meant.
“So, she sent the invites to us just to make us feel uncomfortable! Hmm. We can’t possibly disappoint someone who went out of her way to tease us. The birthday party will be our chance to ‘tease’ her as much as she did to us! Ha! The ex-lover appearing at the new lover’s birthday party? Just the thought of it gets me all tingly!
“Your arrival will be a reenactment of Elyse’s cheating back then. Hehehe… How nostalgic. Let’s go, Elie. We have to go!”
“We definitely have to,” Amelie echoed with a small smile.
Even though there wasn’t a need to bite the b*tch that bit her, she had no choice but to teach the dog to behave if the dog wouldn’t let go.
Amelie flipped through her calendar.
It had been some time since she came back to Quinn Town. It was time she went back.
It was Elyse’s birthday in the blink of an eye.
Elyse was now standing in front of the mirror in a couture dress with a small crown on her head.
Seeing her beautiful reflection, she nodded in satisfaction.
