A Matter of Wife and Love

Thanks to Toby, Amelie tossed and turned in bed all night long.

In the morning, after dropping Brianna off at school, Amelie was planning on heading home for a nap when she got a call from Julia.

Julia said she had a remarkable talent to introduce to Amelie.

Amelie’s audiobook service platform was beginning to produce results, so she planned on starting a new project that offered offline training courses. Thus, she was looking to hire people for the project.

It was hard to find great talents, so after hearing what Julia said, Amelie booked a ride to Clouson City without wasting any time.

When she arrived, the candidate wasn’t there yet. Julia was drinking coffee by herself.

Julia spotted Amelie and immediately waved at her, but when she saw Amelie’s face, she exclaimed, “Oh, my. Your undereye circles are pretty dark. What happened? Did you lose sleep over Leo’s announcement?”

“Why would I?” Amelie immediately retorted in embarrassment.

It did have something to do with Leo, but it was mostly because he got into a fight with Toby and she had to go over to talk them down, which culminated in Toby’s confession.

Still, she wasn’t going to agree to start a relationship with Toby, so she saw no point in mentioning this to Julia.

“Oh,” Julia replied, but her expression became rather strange.

Amelie didn’t understand why, so she turned around to see what Julia was looking at. What she saw was a cold and stern-looking face.

The man’s features were flawless, but his brow was hard.

A stifled feeling rose in Amelie’s chest. Her limbs felt numb.

Julia shuddered and backed away ever so slightly as she thought, That b*stard Leo has such an imposing presence. How scary!

Amelie had been married to Leo for four years and knew him well enough to pick up on his displeasure. I didn’t say anything to rile him up, so why is he displeased?

“Did he come in because of you? Don’t tell me he suddenly developed feelings for you,” Julia murmured into Amelie’s ear when she saw that Leo showed no signs of leaving.
