A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 401

Chapter 401 You Idiot!

Amelie took a few steps closer to Jodie. Jodie was too afraid even to bat an eyelid, and she glared at Amelie’s hand with a look of caution in her eyes. Jodie flinched a little as Amelie got closer, and Melissa flinched along with her. Melissa didn’t have the guts to mess with Amelie right then, but Jodie was still Melissa’s daughter, after all. Melissa couldn’t help but wonder what she should do if Amelie were to hit her daughter.

Fortunately, Amelie didn’t do what Jodie and Melissa had expected her to do. Instead, Amelie tucked her hair behind her ear before staring directly at Jodie. “You could’ve just expressed all your dissatisfaction at home, and everyone would be fine with that, Miss Jodie. Why did you have to tell the shareholders about this? Are you trying to dig your own grave? You’re already paralyzed—are you trying to ruin the rest of the Alston Family as well?”

Jodie’s face turned pale after hearing Amelie’s words. She looked all over the house frantically—she felt too ashamed to look into anyone’s eyes right then. “What… What do you mean?” Melissa felt her heart pounding after hearing Amelie’s words. She turned to stare at Amelie.

However, Amelie didn’t respond to Melissa. She simply kept her lips sealed. Melissa had no choice but to turn and look at Jodie. “What have you done, Jodie?”

“What… What could I have done?” Jodie had been eager to get revenge when she first did the deed. She was even excited to do it. However, Jodie no longer had the guts to admit to her faults after she heard what Amelie said. Melissa knew that Amelie wasn’t the sort of person who would randomly accuse someone of something they hadn’t done, so she smacked her hand on her own thigh as she shouted at her daughter. “I want you to explain yourself now. I’ll kick you out of the house if I have to find out about your acts on my own!”
