A Matter of Wife and Love
Chapter 118

Chapter 118

Right at that moment, the woman standing before Jodie's eyes was none other than Amelie herself. Amelie stood still and stared at Jodie while Jodie felt her heart pounding with uneasiness. Previously, Jodie's research told her that Amelie had no connection to Starlight Media's boss. She figured Amelie and Julia were the ones who started those rumors on their own.

Jodie was practically blinded by rage after her last encounter with Amelie, so she decided to pressure Carla to hunt down the wife of Starlight Media's boss. Jodie was genuinely shocked when Carla managed to complete her task. "I'll always be with Starlight Media's boss, Amelie uttered cryptically.

Technically speaking, Amelie was Starlight Media's owner, so she wasn't exactly lying. However, since Jodie didn't know she was speaking to Amelie and that Amelie was actually Starlight Media's boss, Jodie had a completely different interpretation of Amelie's words. She was shocked as she immediately assumed that the woman before her eyes had yet to divorce her husband.

Jodie panicked for a moment, but she quickly realized how this could work much better in her favor. She had to stop herself from clapping and cheering in excitement. "Well, that gives you more reason not to tolerate such nonsense! Did you know that Amelie and her friend, Julia, keep making claims in your husband's name? They think they can do such things just because the public hasn't met your husband. They claimed that Amelie is your husband's girlfriend and even said you and your husband got a divorce because of her." Jodie continued yapping as a malicious look surfaced in her eyes. "She was also the one who claimed that the child belongs to your husband. She really has no limits!"

In actual fact, Jodie was probably the one who had no limits. Amelie was utterly disgusted by the smug look on her face. Leo was a relatively successful man, and the Alston Family was one of the most influential families in Clouson City. Aren't they ashamed to have a sister like Jodie? Amelie wondered.

Jodie was worried that the lady in front of her would hold back from attacking Amelie, so she continued to reveal more about Amelie's background. "Amelie is the daughter of a cobbler, and she wants to cling to a rich man because she doesn't like how poor her family is. Did you know that she even tried to trick my brother into sleeping with her? She contacted the reporters and forced my brother to marry her in front o those reporters! That was why my brother ended up ditching his girlfriend of many years to marry her."

Jodie was extremely skilled in constructing fibs. Amelie simply stared at Jodie and allowed her to continue talking. "However, my brother later divorced her because she was too promiscuous. I can't believe she's going. for your husband now. She's trying to tear you two apart! I'm speaking from experience when I say that she's going to step all over you and ruin your family!"

"That's pretty mean of her," Amelie uttered in a lazy tone to play along with Jodie. It seems like I was being too nice when I just got Melissa to lecture her previously. "Exactly! So, you can't let her go so easily!" Jodie was excited to hear that the other woman agreed with her words.

"So, what do you think I should do?" Amelie asked.

Jodie's mind began to spin at top speed. I have to think of a way to crush Amelie under my feet. I want to make her regret her actions! "You should separate her from her kid. She's using the kid to urge your husband to marry her, so she won't be able to do anything if her kid disappears!" Amelie chuckled to herself right after hearing Jodie's words. She sure is an evil woman, she thought. She's trying to break my heart by taking my child away

"There's one other thing I forgot to mention-Amelie ran a DNA test for her daughter and your husband. The results indicated that the child belongs to your husband! It's clear that Amelie's already planning all of this out! Jodie looked utterly pleased with herself. She had just delivered the final blow, and she was sure that it would work.

As per her expectations, the woman nodded. "That's a good idea." Even though Amelie was fuming on the inside, she managed to maintain a calm front and even praised Jodie's idea. Jodie was overjoyed as she assumed that the woman had accepted her suggestion. You're about to go down, Amelie! she thought How dare a cobbler's daughter like you come up against someone as rich as me! You're asking for it!

"By the way, you should attack Julia as well. She's Amelie's partner in crime, and she's the one who has been spreading all those claims under your husband's name. She even secretly allocated 200 million as the child's

funds They're using Starlight Media's money as if they own it. It's just too shameless of them!" Jodie didn't just want to tear Amelie and Bria apart; she even wanted to harm Julia!

Amelie could no longer conceal her emotions after that. She took her mask off and curled her lips into a cold smirk. Jodie was still pumped about her success, and she simply took the woman's smirk as a response to what the woman had just heard about Amelie and Julia. Jodie didn't think too much about it.

Since Jodie had managed to ruin both Amelie's and Julia's lives, she figured her next step was to gain some benefits for herself. Julia's sales performance may seem good, but it's all because she has the support of Starlight Media's funds. She couldn't do anything if she were on her own. Previously, I applied for a job at Starlight Media. I'm really good in all sorts of professional skills, and I was expecting to take over Julia's role in Starlight Media," Jodie praised herself without batting an eyelid.

"However, Amelie got angry after my brother divorced her, so she and Julia pulled a few strings and sent me to take up a cleaner's job instead! You probably see how arrogant and rude those two are by now, don't you?" she continued.

"So, are you saying you can take over Julia's role if I fire her? Amelie was smart, and she instantly picked up on what Jodie was implying Jodie was elated to see how understanding the wife of Starlight Media's boss' was. "Don't worry. With my skills and my role as the daughter of the Alston Family, I'll do a better job than Julia!"

"How shameless!" Amelie no longer felt like faking her role, so she simply took her mask off. Jodie had been excited at first, but she froze after hearing Amelie's words She looked up just in time to see Amelie taking her sunglasses off. "What are you doing here?" Jodie cried out in alarm when she saw Amelie.

"I heard you were searching for the wife of Starlight Media's boss, and I was curious to know what you would do. I can't believe you're so evil! Amelie shot Jodie a cold glare Jodie had expected herself to be able to ruin both Amelie and Julia's lives, and she had been excited to take full credit for things. However, the moment Amelie revealed her face, Jodie felt as if she had fallen from heaven down to hell!

Jodie's body trembled with a mixture of rage and disappointment. Amelie took a step forward to grab her by the collar. "You try to separate my daughter and me and even try to chase Julia out of Starlight Media. Do your think I'm afraid to shove you off this hill, Jodie? I can make sure that you don't leave this place in one piece!" Amelie hissed.

Then, she used all her strength to press Jodie against the railing Behind the railing was a cliff that led down. to a deep valley. A river with a fierce current awaited at the bottom! Half of Jodie's body was dangling in the air-the moment Amelie let go of her, she would fall all the way down!

Jodie had never been in such a dangerous position, and she was so terrified that she let out a piercing scream. Her face was the color of paper as she desperately tried to cling to the railing. "Don't! Don't push me down!" She had lost all of her pride at that moment as she begged Amelie to show mercy.

An icy smirk formed on Amelie's lips. "Why should I keep someone like you alive?" With that said, she reached her hand out...
