When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 308 Tricks From the 80s

"It's Miss Jodie," replied Miss Potts. "She didn't say anything and just started to break things as soon as she returned. Why don't you go and check on her? If she keeps doing this, the house will be a mess."

Once Melissa heard it was Jodie, she felt at ease and slipped off the bed. She wore her slippers and draped a wrap around her before walking down the stairs. As soon as she entered the living room, a glass cup flew toward her feet. It shattered as it hit the marble floor, and the shards went everywhere. Melissa was terrified when one of the glass shards touched her feet. Then, she looked up and saw Jodie, who was gritting her teeth as she picked up another item and was going to hurl it to the floor. Her eyes were filled with hatred, and her face was red. It was obvious that she was drunk.

Seeing that she was drunk, Melissa was furious. "Stop this instance, Jodie!" she barked.

Then, she stomped toward Jodie and snatched the flower vase from her hand.

"You are such a mess! All you do is drink! If you keep up with this act, I will send you abroad tomorrow and let you live on your own!" Melissa pointed her fingers at Jodie and scolded.

Initially, she wanted to send Jodie abroad to elevate her. However, Jodie refused since she hated studying and was afraid of hardship. Seeing that she was not fond of the idea, Melissa didn't force her since she loved the girl very much. However, seeing that Jodie was now drinking and acting like a madwoman, Melissa felt disappointed.

On the other hand, Jodie was dissatisfied with her words. "I'm already in a terrible mood, Mom! Stop scaring me!" she shouted, and her breath reeked of alcohol.

Disgust filled Melissa's eyes, and she frowned deeply when she smelled the stench from Jodie.

When Jodie saw Melissa's disgusted look, she was disheartened as she flopped onto the couch. "No wonder Amelie despises me. After all, even you, my own mother, wish that I was never born. Am I such a hateful person?" As she spoke, she started to sob.

Curiosity rose in Melissa when she heard her words. "Amelie? What's up with her?"

"What else is there to say about her? To be honest, I don't know what had gotten into her. Just now, she tried to hit me when I warned her not to get close to Leo!" Jodie hid the fact that she had done something and merely accused Amelie. "My wrists hurt because of her." As she spoke, she rubbed her wrists pitifully. "Not only that, she even called Leo and accused me of hurting her!"

When she had parted ways with Amelie, Leo gave her a call and scolded her. Hence, Jodie was upset.
