A Matter of Wife and Love

Amelie was rendered speechless. What is going on? I try to save Jodie but end up being accused of attempting to murder her instead.

“You must be mistaken, Miss Alston. Miss Foxy wanted to save you. The moment she bumped into us, she immediately asked me to help you,” Fabian politely said, even though he was thoroughly shocked by Jodie’s attitude.

However, Jodie scoffed and said, “She’s only acting! I came here with her. If I drown, people will suspect her. That’s why she pretended to look for help.” She then pointed at the rope on the ground. “You see, Leo? My neck was still tied up with that. She knocked me out and tried to hang me. She’s evil!”

Then, as if to prove she was telling the truth, she tilted her head to reveal the bruise marks on her neck. Her skin was very fair, and Amelie had struck her with all her strength to knock her out. Hence, her entire neck was covered in a bruise that was very shocking to look at.

“You now see Foxy’s true face, Blakey?” Jodie even turned to look at Blake. “She’s an evil woman!”

The way she was acting made Amelie burst out, chuckling. At first, I thought she must have misunderstood me, but now I realize it was deliberate. She plans to defame me in the hopes of turning Blake against me.

“If that’s what you think, I have nothing to say.” Amelie could not even be bothered to explain what had happened. Then, she coldly shot Jodie a look before swiftly walking away. Moreover, she would never debate with a moron unless she was a moron herself.

When Jodie saw her walk away, she assumed Amelie was scared off by the accusations. “See,” she proudly shouted. “Look at her. She’s feeling guilty!”

“Why don’t you explain? You’re clearly not that kind of person,” Fabian asked on the way back, confused.

She smiled and asked, “Do you think you can wake someone pretending to be asleep? Rather than doing something useless, why not look for the key?”

He chuckled and commented, “No wonder you can be an influencer with 100 million fans.” I respect her for her lack of doubt and ability to stay focused on the task, unfazed by distractions.
