A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 116

Chapter 116

Amelie turned around to see an icy look on the gorgeous man’s face. “You have to help me, Leo!” Jodie clung to Leo with tears in her eyes. However, when she turned around to look at Amelie, there was a provocative and smug look in Jodie’s eyes. She had intended to pick a fight with Amelie, but she no longer saw a need to do that since Leo was here.

“Amelie is too much. I’m your sister, yet she still dares to lay her hands on me! She has no regard for us at all!” Jodie cried. Leo turned around to glare at Amelie, but she simply wore a blank and calm look on her face. He couldn’t seem to read her expression at all. “Are you sure you want to help Jodie this time?” Amelie asked.

“Leo’s my brother. Of course, he’ll help me! Do you think he’d be on an outsider’s side instead?” Jodie was worried that Amelie would reveal why she had been slapped in the first place, so she interrupted the conversation before Amelie could say anything. Amelie simply sneered and glared at Jodie before walking up to Leo. “Hit me, then.” She shut her eyes while standing before him with a calm expression.

Did she just tell Leo to hit her? Jodie had prepared all sorts of accusations to target Amelie, but she hadn’t expected Amelie to give in just like that. She was too stunned to speak for a moment. Leo pushed Jodie aside as he continued to glare at Amelie. “I don’t hit women. But… what exactly happened?”

“Who knows?! Amelie just came up and hit me for no reason!” Amelie showed no intention of explaining the situation, while Jodie was eager to speak up for herself. “Even if you don’t hit women, you can’t let her get away with this, Leo. Who knows what she might do in the future?!” Jodie cried.

“Let’s check the CCTV, he suggested. Jodie was speechless after that. Is he suggesting we check the CCTV even though Amelie’s not speaking up for herself? I can’t believe this. “What do you mean, Leo? Do you not trust me? I’m your sister!” she cried. However, he merely ignored his sister’s protests and asked for the workers.
