A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 404

The secretary happened to bring the cups of coffee into the office. Melissa was then given a cup of coffee. “Madam.”

Melissa sat upright in the small reception room in her branded suit dress while carrying a designer bag. Her classy appearance had a deliberate elegance to it. She pushed away the cup of coffee in front of her as she glanced at Amelie. “I’m not going to take the coffee. Makes me sleepless at night.”

Amelie knew how much Melissa cared about her health, so she asked her secretary to substitute a cup of milk for Melissa.

After the secretary left, Melissa rose to her feet and took several steps toward Amelie. “Be honest with me, Elie. Uhm… Did the lawyer give you the shares transfer agreement?”

She found out about this so quickly. Amelie could not help but be taken aback. Nonetheless, she nodded. “He did, indeed.”

Melissa paled as her fingers turned weak while gripping her bag. “I trusted you, Elie. How could you possibly… How could you have done this to me… I-is Jodie right about you coveting the Alstons’ property?”

She knew the reason why Melissa was afraid, so she hurriedly stated, “Don’t worry. Although the lawyer gave it to me, I don’t intend to take anything from the Alstons.”

“Really?” Melissa’s question revealed how little she trusted Amelie.

Amelie sighed silently.
