A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 86 Get Someone Else to Screw with Elyse

“What you should be concerned about isn’t my relationship with the CEO of Starlight Media but when your new sister-in-law will be marrying into your family.”

“My new sister-in-law?” Jodie was rendered baffled. “What the hell are you smoking? Leo hasn’t even been on blind dates lately. What new sister-in-law are you talking about?!”

“Sounds like someone needs to update their news portal.” Amelie ridiculed. “Your brother and Elyse have been appearing everywhere together lately, and everyone around him already knows she’ll become your new sister-in-law soon.”

“Elyse Clayton?!” Jodie turned beyond grim at once. “What in the world is Leo thinking?!”

It was only yesterday Elyse cheated on Leo, and now he’s going to marry her?! Who knows how many people will gossip if the marriage happens, and how many times people will bring up the scandal from four years ago?! Need I no shame?!

“I swear I will beat you up if I find out you’re lying to me, Dillon!” She still had a sliver of rationality in her.

“Word is that Elyse donated her cornea to Leo many years ago, and now one of her eyes has zero vision. If your brother refuses to marry her now, the world will most certainly fault him.”

“She donated a cornea many years ago? Zero vision in one of her eyes? You’ve got to be joking!” Jodie thought Amelie was just bullsh*tting.

On the other hand, Amelie said nothing but hailed a cab and left.

Outside, Jodie stomped her feet in anger while Amelie only gazed impassively at the retreating scene.

The person she wanted to screw with Elyse was none other than Jodie, and the young woman probably wouldn’t disappoint her.

…

As soon as Elyse landed in Capland, she went to Ashton. “Did you learn anything?”

Ashton, who had initially been slouching in the chair, sat up upon seeing her. Even the laziness on his face disappeared.

“Too little useful information had been left behind. There’s not much I could find out.” Ashton scratched his head in shame.
