When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

To him. Amelie would forever be better than her.

Elyse was just that egotistical. She wanted every man in the world to fall for her, to think the world of her.

“Starlight Media will be hosting their 7th-anniversary dinner party soon. Will you go?” Toby asked Leo,

ignoring Elyse.

He sat down opposite Leo and continued, “Perhaps there will be a pleasant surprise.”

He then threw an invitation card on the table which had Amelie’s name written on it.

Leo immediately snatched up the card, holding it so tightly that the tip of his fingernail stabbed into the

name.

Elyse spotted Amelie’s name as well. “What does this mean? Why would they invite everyone in her

name?”

“Starlight Media’s CEO is doing this to tell everyone that doting on her is not just something he speaks

of.”

Jealousy flashed in Toby’s eyes.

He thought he was a competitor in the game, but he still-lost to Starlight Media’s boss.

“Evidently, he wants to push Amelie forward so that she would be in charge of the entire company,” Elyse

exclaimed. Her heart was filled with envy and frustration.

She had always thought Leo was the most extreme case of a doting man.

However, nothing Leo did was worth comparing to what Amelie had.

After all, not many men would dare to fool around with their businesses and career.

Starlight Media’s boss was offering his business up as a toy for Amelie’s entertainment!

Amelie destroyed Elyse’s happy life all those years ago, but she did not get any backlash from that at all.

Instead, she was living a better life than Elyse.

“I don’t feel so well. Please excuse me,” she said.

If she stayed any longer, she might lose control and expose her ugly side to them.

She hurried out of the office, even rejecting Leo’s offer to walk her out.

As for Toby, there was a contemplating look in his eyes as he watched her go. The smirk on his face

widened.

Was she scared just by that?

What would she think if she knew Amelie was the infamous Foxy who could swiftly garner over 100

million

followers even after four years of silence?

Leo did not comment on the issue. Except for the oppressive aura lingering around him in the initial few

minutes, he did not visibly react at all.

Pressing his hand firmly down on the invitation card on the table, he asked Toby. “Is it possible to find the

girl who donated her corneal tissue all those years ago?”

Toby was taken aback. He had not expected Leo to ask about that.

“What will you do if we do find her?” Suddenly, he was eager to know the answer to that.

Leo looked down and did not answer.

He had not thought about what he would do either.

All he knew was that he could not accept the donation without doing something.

“We’ll see when we find her” was his final answer.

Toby laughed. “Have you ever wondered why she would choose to donate anonymously? Her goal might

be to avoid troubling you. The only person who could do that is either a family member or someone who

deeply loves you.”

His remark made Leo go stiff.

“You’ve given yourself to Elyse, so what can you give your donor?” Toby continued.

After Toby left the office, Leo silently stayed seated by his desk, unmoving.

All this time, he had been wondering about that too. Still, he could never settle on one guess.

Toby’s comment flicked a switch in him, allowing him to view everything clearly.

Amelie Dillon.

Could she be the one?

His eyes snapped wide open as his heart clenched in agony.

He suddenly remembered Amelie was there on the day he took Elyse to the clinic.

Could she really be the one?

He charged out of the room.

Amelie had just stepped out of the shower when she learned Julia had done something shocking once

more in her name.

“You know I dislike networking. Why would you put my name on the invite?” she calmly asked as she

dried her hair.

Julia leaned against the end of the desk with the computer while she solemnly replied, “Have you ever

thought about how the Alstons would only be so brazen as to look for trouble because you have no

power, Amy? I know you don’t like to stick out, but you have to listen to me this time.”

She knocked her knuckles against the table and continued to explain, “Your position is the wife of

Starlight Media’s CEO. Those people would not dare to touch you because they don’t know exactly how

powerful the CEO is. Moreover, you have always been in charge of the company’s major decisions. You

cannot keep giving me the credit. It’s time to stand up and let everyone know how talented you are. Of

course, this would also make the judgmental people in the Alston Family know that you are definitely not

a useless housewife. They are just projecting.”

Julia would not let a chance to get at others slip by.

Amelie did not think there was anything wrong with giving Julia all the credit. However, the invitations

were all sent, and Julia was honestly doing it for Amelie’s own good. Hence, she did not protest any

further.

“There are two more days before the anniversary dinner. Tomorrow, the two of us will go shopping. We

must shock everyone and be the stars of the show,” Julia declared steadfastly.

Amelie silently stared at her in shock.

Julia was a streamer and was in charge of the entire company’s operations. Her schedule was even

more tightly packed than Amelie’s.

Naturally, Amelie could not let Julia travel so far just for her. “How about I go to your place instead?”

“Sure.”

Glancing down at her watch, she saw that it was nearly midnight.

Who would be knocking on her door this late at night?
