When I Was A Wallflower

media. “I can assure you that that Dillon woman will find a way to attend the Entrepreneur Dinner tomorrow night. There, she will apologize to Leo and take advantage of the opportunity to propose remarriage.” From Ashton’s point of view, even the scandals with Jamie and Blake were planned by Amelie in order to agitate Leo and finally remarry Leo. “If she really does this, it’s a good chance.” Toby looked at Leo meaningfully and squeezed his shoulder tightly. “Although she is a bit scheming, she has always been a good woman during the marriage.” … Perhaps because of Ashton’s words, Leo’s best friends came to the Entrepreneur Dinner the next day. In addition to Toby, Jimmy and Ashton, there were two others who deliberately came back from abroad. Sure enough, Amelie really appeared at the venue. Today, she looked pure and lovely. Her white dress came down just enough to cover her knees, and her high heels of the same color complemented her slender and straight legs. As she was slender, she looked willowy and weak like she would be blown away by the wind. The fine makeup on her gorgeous little face was very light, which made her look delicate and fragile as if she needed someone to protect her. Ashton raised his chin disdainfully and said, “I guessed it right! Within 30 seconds, she will definitely look for Leo.” When he said this, the corners of his lips were raised in mockery.

Leo snorted coldly. “If you don’t sincerely admit your mistake, you should…” Before he could say the words “go away”, he saw Amelie walk straight past him and went toward another man! She did not come here for me? “Sorry, I was stuck in traffic.” The man facing Amelie looked mature and responsible, but he had an easy-going smile on his face. Everyone was speechless. The man who met Amelie was Samuel Gage. It was none other than Julia’s fiancé. Of course, he was also a good friend of Amelie. The long friendship between the three of them had long surpassed what was ordinary, and they were as close as family. Hence, when the two talked, there was some intimacy between them. Amelie was all looking forward to seeing Samuel, so she did not notice Leo when she came over. The neglected Leo was dumbfounded. “It’s a little noisy here; let’s go elsewhere for a chat,” Samuel said, and the two left together. Although they did not hold hands, the intimacy between the two was enough to make people wonder about their relationship. Emotion overcame Leo as he clenched his fists tightly, not even knowing that he had broken
