Chapter 98 Because He Hates You
Ashton was worried. “Elyse, this wicked woman might harm you!”
Elyse was secretly sneering. Even if Amelie wants to harm me, someone as foolish as you can’t do anything about it.
“Don’t worry. She won’t.”
Although Ashton was worried about Elyse, he still obeyed her orders.
He glanced at Elyse and then gave Amelie a death stare before leaving.
Once the door was closed, the elegant temperament Elyse forcefully put on disappeared, and her expression turned cold. “I didn’t expect you to be one of many talents. You can race cars and even fight, but you hid it so well.”
Having no interest in continuing this boring conversation, Amelie rebuked, “Miss Clayton, I’m sure you know that I don’t need to apologize to you, so goodbye.”
She turned around and headed for the door.
Amelie’s cold attitude added to Elyse’s hatred, making Elyse even more desperate to crush Amelie.
Elyse frowned hard and came up with a plan.
“Miss Dillon!” She called out to Amelie. “I know you despise me. I faked my kidnapping and tricked Leo to come to find me, leaving you freezing in the cold. Later, someone tried to avenge me and contaminated the hospital’s blood supply, rendering you and your child in critical condition.”
Being the intelligent woman she was, even when they were alone, Elyse tactfully mentioned the contaminated blood incident and ensured she wasn’t related to it in any way.
When Amelie heard that incident being mentioned, she gradually stopped walking, wanting to see what Elyse would say next.
Amelie turned around and saw that Elyse had her lips pursed tightly and her eyes clear and cold. “But why don’t you think about what you did wrong?”
After saying that, Elyse picked up her cup and took a sip before continuing, “Leony and I were separated because of you. During those four years, my life was like hell, and Leony wasn’t happy either. If you hadn’t disrupted our loving relationship, we would have already formed a happy family together, but look at what’s happening now. We’ve gotten back together, yet we’ve also become the topic of public criticism, and because of the substantial change in our lives during those four years, Leony thinks that he is no longer worthy of me after getting divorced. You’ve caused so much harm to us, yet you can’t even tolerate someone seeking justice for me.”
Elyse’s words sounded righteous, but Amelie felt like laughing when she heard them.
I shouldn’t have expected Elyse to say something humane. She’s clearly the one behind the blood contamination incident, yet she paints it as someone seeking justice for her. Also, she cheated on Leo and embarrassed him and the Alston Family. I was dragged into this mess to save the day, but she said I had separated them. Could there be any one more hypocritical than her?
Amelie wasn’t angry and cupped her fist. “Miss Clayton, your ability to make things up and act innocent is unbeatable. I’ll give you that!”
Elyse didn’t know how to react. She thought Amelie would throw a fit and act on impulse. However, she didn’t get the result she wanted.
While disappointingly fidgeting with her fingers, Elyse withdrew her finger that was placed on the recording button on her phone.
Meanwhile, Amelie noticed her actions but didn’t do anything and feigned ignorance. “In comparison to the things you did to me, my targeting you seem insignificant and unnecessary. Can you not take it any longer? I have yet to use your tricks on you!”
Those words were like a blow to Elyse’s chest. She felt her blood surge as she trembled.
If Amelie did use those means on her… Just the thought of it sounded terrifying to her!
It seemed it was getting more difficult to deal with the divorcée Amelie.
