Chapter 127

Meanwhile, Amelie, who was holding her skirt with her hands, let go of the fabric as she caught a
glimpse of Jodie coming her way. She curled her lips upward. Oh, look who’s coming. Are you so mad
that you’re going to do it yourself now? Amelie wasn’t even concerned about Jodie’s presence at all,
thinking her foolishness wasn’t worth her time and energy-

After Amelie’s speech, the music started playing just as it was time for everyone to dance. “Fancy a
dance challenge, Amelie?” Jodie asked in a low voice, staring at Amelie as if she was trying to provoke
her.

Bring it on, Amelie. Even if you can dance, one would need a solid foundation to become a good
dancer. Eager to humiliate Amelie, Jodie was hoping to defeat her in a dance battle and spread the
word about it when the dinner was over.

At the same time, she would also make sure everyone else knew that Amelie was responsible for
setting her up during the press conference at Starlight Media, unable to forget that she had been forced
to clean up after that.

When word about this gets out, Amelie and Starlight Media will become the subjects of criticism. Not
only will her capabilities be doubted, but she will also be accused of putting down new talents. Haha,
this news is going to keep everyone gossiping long enough. By then, I’ll rise to fame while Amelie’s
reputation takes a hit.

As Amelie’s smile stiffened on her face, Jodie caught sight of it and felt satisfied, thinking the former
was no match for her when it came to dancing. Confident, she walked toward the dance floor while
shimmying her curvy body.



In the meantime, Julia returned and saw what had happened. She shook her head helplessly.
“Goodness gracious, Jodie. You’re asking for trouble.” After all, she knew how good Amelie was at
dancing; her skills were unmatched even when she was up against a professional dancer. Thus, Julia
was sure Jodie would suffer defeat

at Amelie’s hands.

Nonetheless, Jodie, who had no idea what Amelie was capable of, got ready in her stance as she was
prepared to show off her Paso Doble. Although Amelie refused to waste her time accepting Jodie’s
challenge, Julia didn’t want to miss the show and nudged her closer to the dance floor. “Come on.
Show everyone what you can do!”

When Amelie was pushed to the dance floor, she looked at her friend speechlessly. At the same time,
the musician started playing fast-paced music when he saw Jodie in her stance. As everyone began to
hear the pace of the lively music, Jodie started waving her skirt as she danced to the rhythm.

With her large movements, she was able to demonstrate a high standard of Paso Doble while everyone
else watched and admired her act in silence. Wanting to force Amelie into accepting her challenge,
Jodie danced in circles around the former to provoke her. While everyone shifted their gazes to Amelie,
the lady only stood there in silence without responding.

“Isn’t that Jodie? What is she doing there?” At the same time, Elyse and Leo arrived with Toby. Seizing
Leo’s arm, Elyse instantly knew what was going on with just one look at the dance floor, her eyes
darkening. “Leo, is Jodie trying to challenge Miss Dillon? If that is the case, please tell Jodie to stop. I
understand she is a good

Meanwhile, Leo quietly set his eyes on the dance floor, but instead of looking at his sister, he kept them
on Amelie, who appeared to be standing still helplessly. In the meantime, Elyse secretly observed
Leo’s expression after finishing her sentence, noticing his darkened eyes and pursed lips.



Truth be told, she felt gleeful to see how Amelie would get embarrassed by Jodie during the dance
battle. The more helpless Amelie looks, the more disgusted Leo is going to feel for her. Soon, Elyse
degraded Amelie and added, “Dancing is not like car racing. They are two completely different stories.”
What can she do besides car racing?

Toby, who had been quiet the entire time, became annoyed upon hearing Elyse’s words. He then
chuckled with an ironic expression on his face. “You’re right. Leo should tell Jodie to stop, but not
because Amelie is the highlight of this event. Rather, he wouldn’t want to see his sister getting
embarrassed by Amelie.”

“Come on, Mr. Walsh. What are you talking about? Jodie is as good as a professional when it comes to
dancing. What makes you think she is going to be the one getting embarrassed?”

“Amelie Dillon is capable of more than what you think she is, and you’re a fool for underestimating her,”
Toby replied with a cold grunt, believing Amelie was shrewd and versatile ever since he learned that
she was Foxy.

“Tsk, tsk. tsk! It looks like Mr. Walsh has a weird preference for helping outsiders rather than those
among us,” answered Elyse with a smiling face as she chuckled.

“Let’s just wait and see,” Toby replied, to which Elyse smiled in satisfaction; that was the answer she
had been waiting for. Toby could tell what was on Elyse’s mind, but he decided not to expose her.
Instead, he kept his eyes on Amelie sentimentally, deeming her the best woman there was in the world
regardless of her decision to accept Jodie’s challenge.

When Elyse saw the two men watching Amelie without blinking an eye, she couldn’t help but feel her
anger surging through her body. However, when the thought of Amelie’s humiliation after the dance
battle flashed across her mind, she lightened up once again and decided to enjoy the show quietly.



On the other hand, Amelie continued to stand still without moving as everyone else around her began
to gossip. “Oh, dear. It seems that Amelie Dillon can’t dance at all.”

“Well, mind you, Paso Doble is not a dance that anybody can handle. Amelie may be good, but she is
not gifted in dancing.”

“Alas! What do you expect from a daughter whose father was a shoemaker? She should consider
herself lucky for not having to worry about going hungry.”

“That’s probably why she is not well-liked by the Alston Family. Think about it; why would Alstons want
a tough businesswoman as their daughter-in-law? Don’t you think a multi-talented housewife, who is
thoughtful and tender, would be more suitable?”

“That’s right. Maybe it’s true that a decent woman never raise a child to become a decent woman.”

insult her father.

After all, her father was the man whom she loved the most in the world, as well as the one who had
raised her with everything he had. Because of that, Amelie decided to prove those people wrong by
showing how proud she was of her upbringing despite her humble origin. The next second, Amelie
swung her skirt and moved toward the dance floor in an agile manner.

“Wow!” A few seconds after Amelie entered the dance floor, the crowd was amazed by her movements.
Jodie, who had been dancing for quite some time, thought the gasps she heard were because she
managed to impress the people around her. Thus, she started dancing more enthusiastically. While
Julia intended to split Amelie and Jodie apart on the dance floor, she didn’t even have to say anything
before she realized everyone had subconsciously moved closer to Amelie as their eyes shifted from
Jodie to her.



Although Jodie’s dancing skills were indeed impressive, Amelie’s dance seemed soulful. As she
appeared to be so immersed in her graceful dance, the audience around her felt like they had also
entered her world. After all, while it was enjoyable to watch Jodie dance as an outsider, the audience
had a feeling that they were also dancing with Amelie, shimmering their body with their eyes on the
lady. This is beautiful and immersive!

When the music ended, Jodie assumed the thunderous claps were for her, having no idea what Amelie
had been doing all the time. While she wiped her sweat complacently, Amelie only thanked the
audience without saying a single word.
