Chapter 252

“N-No reason!” answered Elyse stiffly before dashing away.

Meanwhile, Amelie slowly narrowed her eyes as she watched Elyse stagger away. Not even
threatening to destroy her career could get her to speak out her reason… Why?

“I’m surprised you two have such a long history.”

A voice came out of nowhere while Amelie was in deep thought, and she turned around to find Fiona
walking toward her with an ambiguous smile.

“I was wondering why you want to screw her up. So she nearly killed you, huh? So you have come for
vengeance instead of love as you had claimed.”

Amelie smiled plainly when she saw it was Fiona, who was the only one who stood up for her when
Elyse wanted to screw her up.

Hence, she had a pretty good impression of Fiona, despite being unfamiliar with her.

“Looks like you’re an inquisitive cat,” commented Amelie as she smiled ambiguously, leading Fiona to
shake her head. “It’s not that I’m inquisitive, but that your show is very dramatic. Not even reality TV
would dare come up with a script like this. That said, I really hadn’t come to eavesdrop. I overheard you
two when I was touching up my makeup.”

At that, she extended an arm toward Amelie. “Fiona Shaw, a pleasure to know you.”

“Foxy.” Amelie returned the handshake.

Following that, the two went out.



“Clayton will certainly be kicked out of the show. Who do you think will fill in her spot?” Fiona asked
while walking.

She had an innate sense of aloofness. It was no wonder she could play the lead role in shows like ‘The
Legend of Princess Anastasia’. However, Amelie had no interest in it. “Beats me.”

Fiona paused her steps and smiled. “You sure are an interesting one.”

At that, she threw her hair back and commented, “Better not be another one who will send my heart
racing. Can’t take too much drama when you’re getting on in years, you see.”

Fiona actually looked to be about Amelie’s age, yet she claimed to be old. Amelie thought the woman
was getting more interesting by the second.

Everything had returned to normal by the time they returned to the set, and the other three guests were
already in their seats. Notably, the skelf was ashen-faced despite having freshened up.

Amelie happened to have noticed the name ‘Lilith Quill’ written on the skelf’s name tag, and it was only
then that she remembered the latter shot to fame recently for starring in a social satire drama alongside
a veteran actor.

In the drama, she was a just and sensible person. But who’d have thought she’d be this muddle-
headed in real life?

Lilith lifted her eyelids but ultimately dared not look at Amelie. Amelie didn’t bother herself with Lilith
either, and she only greeted the other two guests with a nod as she walked past them.

As she was about to sit in the sixth seat, she suddenly noticed someone had already taken up Elyse’s
seat, and the young woman exuded haughtiness despite wearing delicate makeup.

No, it wasn’t aloofness like Fiona’s but haughtiness.



Fiona’s aloofness derived from what society made her to be, but this young woman’s condescension
evidently came from her family background. In fact, even her eyes were filled with contempt, and it
inexplicably reminded her of her ex-mother-in-law, Melissa.

Then again, this young woman had everything to do with Melissa, for they were mother and daughter.

Yes, the young woman was the one and only Jodie Alston.

Even when Amelie had seen far too many things in life, she still couldn’t help being taken aback to
encounter Jodie in such an event.

Has the ‘Show Your Love’ production team become so undiscriminating nowadays?

Of course, Jodie noticed Amelie too, but because Amelie wore a mask, Jodie didn’t make out who it
was. Still, it didn’t stop her from looking up condescendingly.

The filming began in two shakes, and the hosts briefly introduced Jodie’s background, but because she
didn’t have any prominent achievements, they had no choice but to mention her family, shocking the
other guests when they learned that she was Leo’s younger sister.

Leo single-handedly held up the Alston Family and turned their family business from being on the verge
of shutting down to a leading corporate in just a short few years. The man had long become a legend
and a household name in Clouson City.

Many were curious about Leo’s private life. However, they couldn’t find anything else other than his
somewhat messy relationship with Elyse, no matter how they tried.

Meanwhile, behind the cameras, the director nodded pleasingly as he looked at the guests’ reactions.
This was precisely what he wanted.



Celebrities were everywhere nowadays; it was a wealthy family’s life that people were curious about,
and Jodie’s inclusion would guarantee a massive wave of viewership.

Though Amelie was also surprised by Jodie’s appearance, she merely stayed to fulfill the contract she
had signed and had no intention of causing any kind of ruckus. Hence, she naturally wouldn’t have
many ideas.

Now, I just have to relax, enjoy myself, and be an accompaniment, mused Amelie as she drooped her
eyelids lazily.

“I’m sure the audience and our female guests are curious to see who our secret admirers are for the
night.” The hosts rambled enthusiastically to build up the suspense before finally introducing the male
guests.

The guys would receive a round of applause when each came out, and the hosts would ask them about
their crushes. The audience, too, would guess according to the guys’ answers.

The first five were actors who had a few acclaimed works in the past couple of years. Hence, the
audience responded enthusiastically. Even those watching the live stream were hyped. Comments
were coming in one after another at breakneck speed on the live stream portal.

“Our next guest isn’t an actor, but he’s also in showbiz. He’s got the looks, the skills, and the perfect set
of techniques that leaves hundreds and thousands of young ladies infatuated with him. But young
ladies aren’t the only ones crazy about him. Even moms, grandmas, in fact, even dads and grandpas
are crazy about him.” The host evidently spent more time and enthusiasm introducing the sixth guest.

Following her instigation, everyone grew increasingly curious, wanting to know just who it could be.



“Let’s welcome our next guest!” The second after the host finished her words passionately, a piece of
even more exciting music played, and the door in the middle turned from black to a faint Morandi white
color.

It was a kind of gentle whiteness, warm and wondrous, clean and pure.

Meanwhile, the audience all directed their gaze to the slowly opening door and held their breaths in
unison.

Amelie, too, reflexively looked in that direction to find a nearly thin figure dressed in a similar white
color.

Despite wearing a plain modern suit, he looked exactly like he could be from a fairy tale. He was
unrealistically crisp and handsome, so much so that no one dared to touch him.

The handsome young man ambled out and instantly attracted everyone’s attention with his amiable
gaze and faint but gentle smile.

“Blake Gareth!” Jodie gushed reflexively as joy enveloped her face. In fact, she even jumped without
caring that she was onstage.

Well, I’ll be damned! Amelie nearly lost her composure when she realized who it was. What the heck is
Blake up to?!

“Goodness me. He’s so hot!” The female host exaggeratedly fell backward as she had been infatuated.

The male host, on the other hand, approached with a smile. “Indeed. Even a guy like me is infatuated
with him.”

Meanwhile, Blake smiled subtly. It was one laced with a hint of bashfulness of a fresh young adult,
gentle and wonderful.



Having made infatuated by the smile, the crowd only applauded a long while later before chanting
frantically, “Blakey, Blakey!”

The chant, too, lasted for quite a while, and when it finally died, the female host approached Blake with
her hand on her forehead. “Goodness, Blake. Looks like you’re a crowd favorite. The crowd nearly blew
up the studio.”

“Thank you, everyone.” Blake gave the crowd a simple thank-you bow while still wearing his signature
smile.

His every movement was exceptionally graceful, filled with a sense of nobility.

While Jodie nearly passed out from excitement, the other young women expressed their shock with
different expressions.

“I am absolutely shocked that you’ve decided to join us, Blake. Can you tell us whom you have come
for?” asked the female host eagerly.
