“How could it possibly be here?” Yet another person expressed his disagreement. His tone was filled
with contempt as he spoke. “If she had such talent, she would have seduced Leo with it. Don’t insult
those dancers by comparing them to her.” While Leo’s friends were talking, he raised his head and
looked at the woman’s figure faintly, thinking to himself, She does look like Amelie, but that’s impossible. Amelie is a scheming woman with a mouth full of lies. There was no way she would be here and dancing to such erotic dance when she had to be cautious in order to be titled Mrs. Alston. As
Leo thought about it, he couldn’t help but recall her reaction when they met at the restaurant. Then, he
got up from his seat and walked to the side, calling home. “Is Mrs. Alston at home?” On the other end
of the phone, the maid replied, “She… She hasn’t been back since morning.” When Leo heard the
maid’s answer, his face darkened immediately. Then, he smirked coldly and thought, Is she playing tricks for me to feel sorry for her? I won’t fall for it the second time! Thinking about it, Leo walked back
into the booth and sat down calmly. At that moment, one of his friends leaned toward him, whispering,
“You shouldn’t have dated Amelie, Leo. You should have ended things with her by giving her money.
Now, look at what she did. Although she had told you that it was an accident and she would not hold on
to it, the next thing she did was announce to the reporters that you two were engaged. Not even the
movies will make a scene of such shameless actions.” When Leo heard his friend’s words, he recalled
some unpleasant memories and frowned, looking grim. “Stop talking about what happened.” The other
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtperson interjected. “As a man, Leo couldn’t do anything when it happened. Since they had s*x by
accident, won’t he be humiliating her by giving her money?” “Why don’t you ask Leo if it was really an
accident? I would say that she set this whole thing up on purpose!” “Even if she were the one who did
it, without what had happened next, there wouldn’t—” Before the spokesperson finished his words, he
cut himself off and glanced at Leo uneasily. Although Leo did not say anything and was only drinking,
his face was grim. At that moment, the atmosphere was awkward. Then, one of his friends patted him
on the shoulder to provide comfort. “You have been married to her for four years, Leo. I’m sure you
have forgotten what she looks like. If that’s the case, why not dump her? It’s not worth wasting your
time on garbage like her.” “I’m sure that only those hideous and poor men would want her after she had
divorced you. After all, she is a perfect match for them!” Soon, the room was filled with laughter and
snickers. Outside the room, Julia was furious. Initially, they were just passing by when they heard Leo’s
friends’ conversation. When Julia heard it, she clenched her fists and was going to burst into the room
when Amelie dragged her out. When they were outside, Julia roared angrily, “Why did you stop me?! I
can’t overlook this when those arrogant b*stards treated you like this!” As the person in the eye of the
storm, Amelie was calm. She patted Julia on the shoulder and explained, “Let them say whatever they
want. I’m already divorced.” Before she was divorced, she had always tried to explain herself. She
wanted to change Leo and his friends’ perspectives about her but to no avail. At that moment, she did it
because she wished to have a harmonious family. Since she didn’t need such a thing anymore, she
didn’t care what others had to say about her. However, Julia was still mad. “I can’t believe it. You have
been with him for so many years, and not only was he doubtful of you, he didn’t even want to
remember your face! Moreover, he even feels that you would be a great match to some hideous poor
man. Trust me. I will show them how outstanding you are and who will be your perfect match!” When
Amelie heard her words, she thought Julia was just venting and didn’t keep it in mind. After comforting
her, Amelie left. The next day, she remembered that she had left something important at the Alston
Residence and went to retrieve it. When she arrived at the Alston Residence, she didn’t enter the
house and called the maid, telling her to retrieve it. When she hung up the call, a car drove in and
stopped in front of her, after which Leo appeared, still wearing his signature disinterested expression.
When he saw her, he looked at her in annoyance. As expected. After seeing that I ignored her when she had thrown a tantrum for the whole night, she returned. Thinking about it, Leo ordered her rudely.
“If you’re done messing around, get back inside!” Hearing his words, Amelie was startled, but then she
realized that he must have assumed she was still in love with him. With that, she smiled faintly and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreminded him, saying, “I’m afraid you must have lost your memory, Mr. Alston. We got a divorce
yesterday.” When Leo heard her words, he frowned, snapping, “Enough is enough. I was just being
nice, and if you keep insisting, you will humiliate yourself!” Being nice? Does he think that by talking rudely, he is nice to me? Amelie thought. Just as she was about to speak up, she heard popping
sounds and looked over where the sound was. Then, she saw a giant banner with the words ‘
Congratulations on escaping your misery, Amelie! You have gotten divorce successfully’ on it. Other
than the huge banner, there were also some small signs with ‘Happy divorce, Amelie!’ written on them.
When Amelie saw it, she was speechless. Her mouth was agape since she was dumbfounded by the
sudden outcome. Before she could react, a bouquet of roses appeared in front of her, and a voice
sounded, saying, “Will you be my girlfriend now, Amelie?” Hearing the person’s voice, Amelie looked at
the spokesperson and saw a handsome face. Other than that, he was 5’9 feet tall and was built. The
man definitely had the perfect body! Before Amelie could say anything, the man went down on one
knee. “I can’t promise much, but I’ll assure you that from the moment we are together, I will cherish
you. I will listen to your words and watch as you smile beautifully. I will trust you and be by your side
whenever you need me. Most importantly, I will never ever give you the cold shoulder.” When Leo
heard the man’s words, his face turned cold immediately.
