Chapter 337

Don’t Mess With Her

“I won’t touch you,” Amelie spoke lightly and calmly. Although there was no imposing manner, Jodie
could see a hidden threat in her eyes.

Ignoring Jodie’s caution, Amelie smiled faintly. “However, you are right, Miss Alston. I shouldn’t have
any more contact with Mr. Alston. Please tell your brother for me that I’ll leave now, and we should try
not to see each other in the future if possible.”

After speaking, she walked out.

Jodie was speechless. What’s going on? Amelie listened to me so obediently? Did the sun rise in the
west?

Jodie was confused by Amelie’s move, and even her sunglasses fell off her forehead without her
realizing it. “Hmph, she just married the boss of Starlight Media! What’s so great about that?” Jodie
immediately scoffed.

Amelie’s attitude had turned into a form of showing off in Jodie’s eyes. But it’s true, she could show off
as much as she wants to because she married a first-rate man despite being a divorced woman. Ugh!
Meanwhile, the men who approached me are either desperate or want to gain some benefit from our
family, whereas the men I like don’t even care to look at me. The more Jodie thought about it, the more
jealous she became of Amelie. She pounded the table in anger.

“Leo.” Leo had just come out of the restroom when he was blocked by Melissa.

“Mom, why are you here?” Leo’s face showed obvious displeasure as he spoke with a flat tone.

Melissa tried hard to calm herself down but couldn’t suppress the turmoil in her heart. She spoke with a
hint of aggression. “What’s wrong with you? Why are you still in contact with Amelie? Don’t you know



she’s already married? You know how bad her reputation is, not to mention your past relationship with
her… Leo, listen to my advice and stay away from Amelie! The further the better!”

Melissa felt that even if “Foxy” and Toby were now involved, it was because of Leo’s ties to Amelie. The
more she thought about it, the more she despised Amelie. “That woman is obviously not a good
person! She might have already hooked up with the boss of Starlight Media before she divorced you.
This kind of indecent woman will only bring you trouble! She—”

“She’s not the kind of person you think she is. Don’t say things like that about her again!” Leo
interrupted her before Melissa could finish.

Leo’s face became even darker than before, with a coldness that could freeze the air. Melissa felt
uneasy after hearing what he said; it was as if he would have been violent toward her if she weren’t his
mother. Is Amelie really that important to him? The more Melissa realized this, the more nervous she
became.

She couldn’t act recklessly in front of Leo and had to speak slowly and calmly. “I don’t mean anything. I
just hope you can stay away from her. In any case, she’s married, and doing this is for her and her
family’s own good, right?”

Leo laughed lightly, tilting his head to reveal his sharp jawline. “Don’t you remember? A while ago, you
were daydreaming about us being together, and you were even willing to scheme for it to happen.”

“Me?” Melissa looked confused. “How is that possible?”

Although she briefly thought that the two of them could get back together, she absolutely did not
purposely scheme for it! Leo didn’t explain himself and just walked past her, leaving the restroom area.
In the hallway, Leo quickly scanned the seats, but Amelie was nowhere to be seen. Instead, he saw his
sister Jodie stamping her feet and slamming the table, looking very angry.



Frowning, he quickly walked over to her and asked, “Where is she?” His tone was cold and icy.

Jodie was startled by Leo’s imposing demeanor but quickly recovered and started to complain. “Do you
know how arrogant Amelie was just now? I only said a few things to her, and she got up and left, telling
me to tell you not to see her again. It’s as if you were pestering her. How can someone be so
shameless? This kind of woman should be taught a lesson! You should make her learn to respect us!”

Jodie couldn’t provoke Amelie herself, so she could only rely on Leo. To achieve her goal, she added
fuel to the fire and said some nasty things about Amelie.

“Listen to me! Don’t bother her in the future!” Leo said coldly.

“What?” Jodie thought Leo would be angry and go find trouble with Amelie, but instead, he said only
these words. Before she could react, Leo had already rushed out of the door. He was running off!
Jodie’s eyes widened in disbelief. Leo had always been composed and steady over these years, and
she had never seen him so restless before. Is he going after Amelie? That couldn’t be possible. Jodie
couldn’t believe that he would lose control just to chase after Amelie, but she couldn’t help following
him.

Leo ran downstairs, but all he saw were unfamiliar faces. Amelie was nowhere to be seen. He gritted
his teeth and pulled his tie tightly, walking toward his car while taking out his phone. Then, he opened
his car door.

Bang! The car door closed.

“Hurry up and open the door!”

As soon as Leo sat down, he heard a hurried and anxious voice from behind. The person clamored and
tried to rush out without any regard.



“Elie?” Leo was surprised and quickly extended his hand to block her from hitting the car window.
Amelie’s head hit his palm with force, causing his hand to go numb.

“Are you okay?” He looked at her with concern, not noticing his hand.

Amelie covered her head and looked at him with blurred eyes that gradually became clear. After a
while, she said, “Oh,” and looked around.

This was inside the car, not the garage.

“Sorry, it was a reflex,” Amelie apologized. The four years of living in the Alston Family’s garage—
where she would jump up to open the door whenever she heard a loud noise in her sleep—had left her
traumatized.

She had originally thought of leaving, but she decided to talk to Leo instead since his car wasn’t locked.
As soon as she got in, she started feeling drowsy, which led to the scene that just happened. Leo was
happy that she hadn’t left, but his smile froze when he heard what she had to say. He couldn’t deny it
or make excuses. His eyes showed a heavy sense of guilt and regret. Even if she didn’t say anything,
he exactly what she meant.

Back then, a distant relative of the Richards Family watched over the garage, but he had poor hearing
and people had to bang on the door loudly for him to hear anything. Over time, it became a habit. After
the old man left, Amelie moved into the underground garage. Leo had never really considered her as
family and didn’t bother thinking about who was living there, so he continued to bang on the door as
usual. His indifference had caused her irreparable trauma.

“Sorry,” he apologized in a low voice after a while.

“It’s all in the past. It doesn’t matter anymore.” Amelie shrugged.



Leo looked at her bright and clear eyes that had no sadness. However, the bright light stabbed his
heart and made him feel suffocated. He wished that she would bring up the past, get angry, and swear
at him. At least it would prove that she cared. Only when she cared about these things would she care
about him as a person. He was once confident that with time, he could win her heart back, but now it
felt like he was holding onto the sand that was slipping through his fingers. His chest was tight, and the
air was filled with endless silence.

Amelie had enough of this kind of atmosphere in the Alston Residence and didn’t like it. She furrowed
her eyebrows and ran her fingers through her hair, breaking the silence.

“I still want to talk to you properly,” she said.
