When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)
Chapter 264

Chapter 264

"Where are the photos?" It was a few minutes of silence before Amelie finally spoke.

Elyse stared at her in shock momentarily before realizing what she meant. She immediately pulled out the photos on her phone.

Then. Amelie looked down at the phone. As expected, she saw Leo's cold face gazing down at her with a gentle look on his face. It must be due to the angle at which the photo was taken. Leo despises me. so why would he ever look at me like that? Even so, why did he have to drape his jacket over me? Is he concerned that if I catch a cold, no one will care for Bria? That's got to be it. I know' how important Bria is to him. On one occasion, Bria called him at night to express her longing for him. Then, he drove over to her immediately. At that thought, her confusion vanished as her thoughts turned self-deprecating.

I'd been with him for four years, and he'd never shown any sign of affection. He is being courteous to me only because of Bria. Is that enough to send my thoughts spinning out of control? This is not a good sign. Fantasies can easily lead to denial. I don't want the four-year tragedy to repeat itself. With that in mind, she swiftly deleted the photos before returning the phone to Elyse. "You know full well if you were trying to use Jodie to kill me. There is no point in doing this on her behalf, Elyse. I was married to him for four years, yet we had no love. It is further impossible for any love to start after our divorce." Following that. Amelie walked away.

Behind her, Elyse watched as she got into her car. It was only then that her heart finally calmed down. With a hand over her heart, all strength suddenly fled her body, and she collapsed against the wall, panting.

After a few moments of panting, she let out a spine-chilling laugh of mockery. Amelie claims that Leo has no feelings for her. She either boasts, or she is actually ignorant. Why would Leo look at her like that if he had no feelings for her? Why would he drape his jacket over her?

As someone Leo once loved, Elyse knew7, better than anyone else that Leo only did those things when he loved someone.

Meanwhile, the person who came to pick up Amelie was Julia.

As soon as Amelie got into the car, Julia began laughing hard. "You sure are amazing. I can feel Blakey's overwhelming affection through the screen. What did you do to enchant that princely person so much? After all, while he's a gentleman, he's very picky regarding love. He had seen so many women, yet he never glanced at them. He is only in love with you."

The show7 was being aired as the episodes were filmed. That was why Julia knew' what was happening.

"Blakey?" Amelie was stunned to hear that from Julia. Then, she dazedly stared at Julia. Her instincts screamed at her that Julia was talking about someone else. How could Blakey possibly have feelings for me? Nonetheless, even if he does, it will be nothing more than a brother's love for a sister. At that thought, she scoffed. "Stop talking nonsense. If Blakey's fans replace out. they might beat me up."

Most of Blake's fans were like protective older sisters and mothers. She did not want those fans to look at her like they were scrutinizing her like their future daughter-in-law, picking at any flaws she might have. Hearing that, Julia chuckled. "Do you think the fans are blind? The internet has exploded with the news, especially when it conies to the scene when he puts some herbs on your wound. Everyone online is screaming about how7 sweet he was."

"Huh?" Amelie froze.

She gave it a lot of thought, going over the scene repeatedly, but nothing about it struck her as particularly sweet. He is merely tending to my wounds, right?

The two were in wet clothes, stripping them of their dignity. Should they not be called miserable or pitiful instead? How were they being sweet? How??

"In any case, they are currently singing your praises. They say your streams are very wholesome and match Blakey's image perfectly. Therefore, they are satisfied even if you are merely a social media influencer."

These people... Amelie felt sweat roll down her forehead. Do you think it's appropriate for them to act as matchmakers? I don't mind, but Blakey still has his entire life ahead of him. He needs to settle down, get married, and have children. Won't this affect his relationships in the future?

"They must be doing this for some temporary fun. After all, I never revealed my face," Amelie explained to Julia.

Still, Julia chuckled. "You don't need to worry about that. The fans all say that Blakey has such great taste in women that he must know' what you look like before he decides to be nice to you."

Amelie was rendered speechless upon hearing that.

Were those parental fans not meant to be very fussy? How7 was that okay with them?

"Well, I can still clarify the situation, right?" Amelie pulled out her phone to make a post. "This situation will make tilings so awkward for Blakey. That's not good."

Julia snatched her phone away. "Are you for real, Elie? If Blakey didn't feel anything for you. could he have let those rumors spread? Based on liis personality, even if he is a friend, he would not be so nice to you unless he thinks that of you. You know him earlier than I do, so you should better understand him." Following that, she sighed.

There were many tilings that outsiders could see better than those involved.

Even if Amelie was exceptionally bright, she still couldn't break with custom.

Suddenly. Amelie's entire body went stiff upon hearing Julia's reminder. For a long while, she was silent.

Thinking Amelie was shy, Julia continued. "Blakey's a really nice man. He might have a blank face most of the time, but he knows liis mind. Ignore the age gap because it does not matter. The only question is whether or not he loves you."

She then put down Amelie's phone to hold her wrist before saying, "He is a very reserved man. He does not fall in love easily, let alone with someone else, within a few7 days. If he likes someone, he must have thoroughly analyzed liis feelings first. He would never be someone to abandon a lover. Elie, think of it. Bria likes him as well, right? He could be good to you."

"Also, forget about Leo. You don't know yet, right? All negative news about Elyse is gone. I've asked around. All the media outlets say he only joined the show' for Elyse. They fear angering him, so no one dared report bad news about her. Her career has been revived once more." Julia honestly did not want Amelie to repeat her mistakes.

Even though it was all expected. Amelie still felt discomfort when she heard that. Her heart felt like someone had repeatedly stabbed it with needles.

Meanwhile, at Alston Residence.

After returning home, Jodie locked herself in her room and smashed several items. She was loudly sobbing the entire time. The waste bin was filled to the brim with used tissues.

Melissa looked at her and dejectedly sighed. She walked over and covered a hand over Jodie's. "Enough. Take a break. You've been crying for hours. The doctors have all said you're fine. Those are only some superficial wounds."

Then, Jodie shot her a disgruntled look. "Do you think I'm crying about that? You don't understand me at all!"

On the way back, she heard that the episode was already being aired. Thus, she watched it.

She was fine before watching it, but when she was met with scene after scene of Blake flirting with Foxy, her insides curled up with jealousy.

"Why can't he be nicer to me? How is that Foxy any better than me? She's only a woman who doesn't even dare show her face! What is there to like about her? Is Blake a fool?"

Jodie's tears no longer sounded like she was suffering from physical pain, and it became clear that she had not joined the show to advance her career.

When Melissa saw how preoccupied Jodie was with her love and that she was ignoring her career, she sighed.

"Jodie, can you grow up a little? You have no achievements to your name. If not for your brother, no one would know who you are. Are you not worried?"

Leo did not care about Melissa, so her only hope was for Jodie. If she were better, Melissa's future would be more straightforward.

Jodie was not worried about that at all.

"We have Leony anyway. What are we afraid of? I only want Blake right now! I want to date someone, and that someone can only be him!" Despite Blake's rejections, she was still thoroughly in love with him. Melissa sighed once more at her shouting.

Then, she leaned in close to whisper into Jodie's ear with a solemn look in her eyes. "Jodie, be honest with me about this."
