A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350 Being Followed

As Melissa sipped her wine, she saw Leo walking in. He had a frown on and was holding his phone, talking to someone on the other end.

“Leo?” Melissa couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

She was about to ask him why he wasn’t spending more time with Michelle when she heard his voice.

“Did Elie tell you herself? She’s right. I’ll take care of it. Yeah, I won’t give up.”

Shatter! Hearing these words, Melissa felt her nerves go numb. The wine glass slipped from her fingers and fell to the floor, shattering. The liquid, which was more valuable than gold, spilled all over the table as the glass broke into pieces. Melissa had no mood to lament the wine’s loss as she stood up and rushed toward Leo.

“Leo, what do you mean? Who won’t you give up on?”

Leo frowned and looked at Melissa before ending the call.

“Didn’t you go on a blind date with Michelle?” Melissa was too anxious and forgot her fear of Leo as she asked in a hurry.

The furrow in Leo’s brows deepened.

“Stop arranging these meaningless blind dates in the future!”

When he spoke, his voice was low and his tone was icy and stiff. Melissa stared at him in a daze and she could feel the chill emanating from him.

“Michelle is such a perfect girl. Also, she’s the most suitable one for you. Leo, think it over carefully. Amelie is just an ordinary internet celebrity. Anyone who doesn’t like her could easily get rid of her. The Walsh Family, on the other hand, is different. They are deeply rooted in this city, and they will never fall. A girl from that family is more suitable for you.”

Melissa’s dream of becoming part of the top wealthy family in the country was gone just like that, and she couldn’t bear it. She didn’t have the mood to care about Leo’s attitude and tried to persuade him.

Leo rubbed his forehead. He had long been disgusted with Melissa’s greed. He realized that he had been too hasty in pursuing Amelie after hearing Josiah’s words. After all, he hadn’t even settled things with his family, so how could he have the right to win her over?

“Don’t worry. I won’t remarry Elie until you truly accept her, but don’t arrange any more blind dates for me. I’ll only marry her in this life,” Leo said firmly.

Melissa felt hopeful when she heard the first half of Leo’s sentence. However, as she continued to listen, her face turned pale and her mind buzzed frantically. It’s over!

“W-What if she marries someone else?” she stuttered.

Leo didn’t say anything, but Melissa could clearly see the determination on his handsome face. For the first time, she understood her son’s thoughts. He was telling her straightforwardly that he would end up alone and unmarried. Melissa suddenly felt weak and fell to the ground with trembling legs.

…

“Julia, someone has been following me for the past few days. Can you help me find out who it is?” Amelie was driving on the main road. She turned on the Bluetooth on her phone to call Julia while constantly checking the rearview mirror.

Two days ago, she noticed that she was being followed no matter where she went. Even though the other party kept changing cars, she could still see through their disguise. Although it was easy for her to shake off the other party, she decided to first find out the identity of the person following her to ensure the safety of Bria and her father, Steven.

“Sure thing!” Julia became excited as soon as she heard that Amelie was being followed. “Send me your location!”

Jodie finally snapped out of it and noticed that the alley was narrower than she thought. Currently, the car was completely stuck!

“Damn it!” She pounded the steering wheel in frustration.

“Tsk tsk, how tragic.” The motorbike that had just sped away suddenly turned around and stopped in front of her.

The rider on the motorbike removed her helmet and shook her long hair with an air of arrogance while making clicking sounds with her tongue.

“Julia!” Jodie recognized the woman and almost spewed blood!

“You b*stard! How could you set me up like this!” Jodie lowered the car window and tried to jump out the window to hit Julia. However, the window was tightly pressed up against the alley wall, and she couldn’t get out! She could only sit in the car and stare at Julia who walked over pompously while winking at her.

Subsequently, Julia propped herself up with one hand before jumping onto the hood and sitting down.

Jodie was speechless.

“I’ll just go ahead and upload everything you’ve done to me online, right here and now!” She whipped out her phone and started screaming like a crazy person, acting like she was the victim.

Julia laughed and put on her helmet. “Thanks for the reminder. No one will recognize me now.”

Jodie felt her lungs exploding with anger and almost passed out.

All of a sudden, she spotted a hammer lying in the car. She thought to herself that if she smashed the windshield with it, not only would it shatter, but it could also cause harm to Julia! Consumed by her intense hatred, she gathered all her strength in silence and swung the hammer toward the windshield…
