A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 108 Take Responsibility

Leo’s sudden action startled Amelie. Instinctively, she struggled to get away.

His hand tightened hard around her neck.

“What is the meaning of this, Mr. Alston?” she asked as she struggled. Her voice was cold from rage.

Her eyes shone with a furious blaze.

Her reaction merely upset Leo even further. Just then, he recalled the sweet smile on her face when she was talking to Toby.

His heart clenched in pain.

“What tricks did you pull to seduce him? You won’t spare even my friend, huh?” he barked out harshly.

She looked up, confused.

Friend?

The only friend of his whom she was close to was Toby.

Did he think she was seducing Toby?

Was she that trashy in his mind?

Her heart jolted in agony as if something just pierced it.

On the surface, though, she laughed. She was laughing out of anger. “What tricks can I pull? If your friend was seduced, it would only be because of how pitiful I look when I’m with you!”

“Pitiful?” Leo sneered. “It’s all your fault though, isn’t it?”

It was only then that he realized he had lost control of himself. He was blabbering by now.

Growing up, he had never said anything like that, not even during the time he had loathed her the most.

However, the words spoken could not be taken back.
