Chapter 140

Meanwhile, Ashton was dumbfounded by Elyse’s reaction and could only take it out on the bodyguards.

“Why are you still standing there? Go and do your job!”

Outside, Elyse stumbled and ran until she couldn’t run anymore and leaned against a pillar.

Her fingers were grabbing tightly onto the white decorative pillar while she bit her lower lip so hard that

it looked contorted.

“Damn it! Damn it!

She cursed softly. All she could think about was finding Amelie and ripping her into pieces!

Ever since Amelie’s appearance, she had constantly brought trouble into Elyse’s life. She’s truly my

nemesis!

After her anger subsided, Elyse began to feel terrified and trembled as she remembered that Amelie

was the

real Big Eyes!

She felt like she was thrown and burned inside the furnace, terrifying and painful!

No, I can’t let Amelie ruin my happiness again! she thought.

Barely able to support herself to her feet, she walked around the corridor a few times. It was seen that

something flashed in her eyes before she left.

The Alston Residence.

Melissa was still angry at Leo for not being sensible and cooperating with her.

“Mrs. Alston, your collagen drink is ready.” A servant came over with a cup of tea and gave it to

Melissa.

However, Melissa pushed it away in frustration. “I’m not drinking today. Bring it away!”

The servant looked at Melissa in confusion because Melissa cared a lot about her appearance and

would never miss her daily collagen drink. What Melissa just said came as a surprise.

But the servant also knew not to pry, so she obediently took the drink away.

Meanwhile, Melissa supported her forehead with her hand propped up on the coffee table.

She was so pissed at Leo for not cooperating with her that she had a migraine.

“If I had known he wouldn’t listen to me, I wouldn’t have agreed to let him take over the family

business!”

Her only regret was letting that accident that injured Leo’s eye happen because Leo completely

changed how he treated her after staying at Quinn Town for some time.

Before, he would listen to her every word and be very filial, but after that incident, he began giving her

the cold

shoulder.

Whenever Melissa thought of that car accident, she would feel guilty and didn’t dare to think more

about it.

At that moment, someone gave a cup to her.

She looked at it and saw it was the same collagen drink.

There was still some steam coming from the hot drink, which made her eyes feel uncomfortable.

Frowning, Melissa angrily asked, “What’s the meaning of this? Didn’t I say I’m not drinking this today?”

Her face was filled with anger as she looked over angrily but saw a face much younger than the

servant.

However, her expression turned even darker after seeing that face. She screamed at the door, “What’s

the matter? Miss Potts, don’t you want your job anymore? How could you let just anyone come in?”

Meanwhile, Leila stood outside the door with both hands limply by her side, seeming embarrassed.

“Don’t blame Miss Potts, she opened the door for me because I told her it was Leo who invited me

here.” Still holding the cup, the visitor smiled at Melissa.

Her face was beautiful and delicate, and she was well-dressed, with the scent of fancy French perfume

permeating her body.

The visitor was none other than Elyse.

When Melissa finally looked at her, she reprimanded, “Elyse, I will never agree to you and Leony’s

relationship, so you’d better give up. Miss Potts, send our visitor out!”

Hearing Melissa’s order, Leila hurriedly came over. “Miss Clayton…”

Elyse smiled and gave Leila a reassuring look before turning back to Melissa. “Mrs. Alston, I came here

today specifically to help you solve your frustrations.”

“Hah! I’m feeling good today and don’t need your help with anything.” Without looking at Elyse, Melissa

sat upright, putting on a relaxed behavior.

She had never liked actresses and adding on to what Elyse did four years ago, Melissa hated Elyse to

the

bones.

“You-”

Melissa’s expression changed after Elyse had guessed her thoughts. Now, she was feeling

embarrassed and angry.

Melissa didn’t lose her temper due to the usual elegant facade she put on before others. She kept

silent despite boiling with anger inside.

Elyse calmly said to Leila, “Miss Potts, you may leave now. I have something I would like to discuss

with Mrs. Alston in private.”

Leila glanced at Melissa worriedly. When she saw Melissa didn’t refuse, she nodded and left.

The room quieted down. Elyse sat beside Melissa with her knees closed and hands on her knees,

making her look elegant.

Her face was glowing as she said, “Mrs. Alston, you shouldn’t feel bad about what others say because

they don’t know what’s happening inside the Alston Residence. I know for a fact that you and Leony

aren’t merciless people and that you do like Bria. You know giving birth to a child was a difficult

process, so you made the painful decision of letting Amelie take Bria away.”

Once Elyse said that, Melissa felt better, and her expression eased a little.

Even if what Elyse said wasn’t what Melissa had in mind, Elyse’s words perfectly hid Melissa’s real

feelings and gave Melissa a good reason for neglecting Bria all this while. Also, that explanation saved

Melissa’s image.

“Of course,” Melissa replied stiffly.

When Elyse got a reply from Melissa, she knew she was another step closer to her goal and smiled

delicately. “Mrs. Alston, I also know that you want to bring Bria back here. I’m guessing you don’t know

how to persuade Leony to come forward and take Bria back, am I right?”

Melissa turned over and looked at Elyse with cold eyes. However, she didn’t respond, which was a

silent agreement.

“I can help you with that,” Elyse offered.

Melissa’s eyes widened as they lit up. “You?”

“Yes, me.” Elyse elegantly cranked her long and slender neck while speaking confidently.

Meanwhile, Melissa wasn’t too convinced. “Elyse, you can’t fool me with your words.”

“How about we make a deal if you don’t believe me?” While gently knocking her knuckles against the

table, Elyse continued, “If I succeed and Leony is willing to get Bria’s custody from Amelie, you will call

for me and Leony’s engagement.”

looked at Elyse with disdain. “Elyse, you’re such a shameless woman! Besides your identity, what

happened four years ago is enough for the Alston Family to reject you as our daughter-in-law. If you

still have some dignity left in you, you should leave Leony as far as possible. I don’t know where you

found the courage to not only pester Leony but also ask me to agree to let you two get engaged!”

When thinking about Elyse’s past, Melissa became even more displeased with her.

However, Elyse wasn’t the slightest bit humiliated or saddened by Melissa’s words. She still kept a

smile on her face as if Melissa wasn’t talking about her.

She pulled her lips taunt and leaned down to look at Melissa. “Mrs. Alston, you’re judging me for what I

did back then, but have you forgotten that you’re the one responsible for what happened four years

ago?”

Once Elyse said that, Melissa suddenly turned pale, and she shivered violently.
