When I Was A Wallflower

On the other end of the line, Victor cut to the chase and said, "The boss of Starlight Media is exceptionally well-hidden, and it's very difficult to obtain verified information. However, we've concluded one thing. The owner's a lady."

"A lady?" A mysterious smile appeared on Leo's lips.

Amelie was using a woman to ward him off? Interesting! The uneasiness in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace because of this info.

"We're going back!" After hanging up, he held his head high and strode down the steps.

Eugene hastily got into the car. After starting the car, he said, "It's Old Mr. Walsh's birthday. What shall we prepare as a birthday gift?"

By 'Old Mr. Walsh', Eugene was referring to Toby's grandfather, Alfred Walsh. The Walshes and the Alstons were old acquaintances, and the Alstons would attend Alfred's birthday banquet every year.

Leo rubbed between his eyebrows. "I'll choose his birthday present myself."

Knowing that Leo was extremely respectful of Alfred, Eugene sounded his agreement.

…

Amelie had just ended her live stream when Julia called to inform her about her encounter with Leo earlier that day.

"That stupid Leo came early in the morning to ask me who the boss of Starlight Media was. Obviously, he was shaken by the news of your 'marriage'." Julia purposefully avoided mentioning how Leo threatened her as she criticized Leo.

Amelie listened to her babble on, occasionally giving a few brief responses.

"Say, if he knew that you own Starlight Media, would his jaw drop?" Julia guessed boldly.

"No," Amelie said indifferently.

He had calmly accepted the fact that she was Foxy, so what else could shock him?

"However, there's no need to tell him."

She had decided to cut off all ties with him, so there was no reason for her to reveal her identity. Julia, however, wanted to reveal all of Amelie's identities and shove them in Leo's face so that Leo would realize how amazing the person he used to disregard was.

She wanted Leo to regret it even more.

Of course, if Amelie didn't like it, she wouldn't do it. Hence, the two chatted for a while before hanging up.

Amelie massaged her temples. She was a little surprised that Leo didn't ask her straight away and had opted to ask Julia instead. While she was thinking, the doorbell rang.
