Chapter 365 Display of Affection

Leo's eyes were empty without any emotion as he looked at her with his hands by his sides.He stood out from the rest of the crowd.

Amelie was slightly stunned before she saw a pair of pale hands clinging to his arm, and the girl leaned her head against him.She shot Amelie a warning glance which she didn't allow Leo to see.

Amelie only smiled slightly in response before shifting her gaze to another direction.

After they arrived downstairs, the Gage Family made small talk with Julia's parents.

As soon as the scheduled time arrived, Samuel took her hand from her parents’ grasp, and the both of them walked toward the oath stand. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Amelie watched on silently as they made their vows and exchanged rings, wishing them happiness again and again when she saw their loving gazes.

"Amelie, it has been a long time."

The wedding was nearly over when Jamie approached her.

It had been two years since they last met, but he remained the same as before, constantly smiling and making girls’ hearts race with a mere glance.

"It’s been some time" she replied with a smile.

His father had died from his illness soon after she went overseas two years ago, so he had to return to the company.

"Come with me."

He reached out his hand to pull her along.

Amelie was confused and could only follow him away.

As she passed Leo, the top of her head somehow felt chilly.

She did not raise her head and followed Jamie in standing opposite Julia.

Julia was now standing on the podium with the bouquet in her hands as her back faced the crowd.

Many young men and women below her looked eager and rubbed their hands together in preparation.

It was obvious all of them wanted to catch Julia's bouquet.

Jamie, who was tall, clicked his fingers at Julia.

She gleefully swung the bouquet and threw it toward Amelie.

Everything happened too suddenly, and when the realization hit her, the bouquet was already in front of her.

She could only catch it on instinct.

Just as her fingertips made contact with the bouquet, she felt her shoulder being weighed down before someone collided with it.

The force was so strong that her body tilted as the bouquet fell from her hands.

She was propelled to one side, where a tall champagne tower had been set up.

If she hit it, the tower would fall and injure her in the process.

She tried to catch her balance but there was nothing she could use for support, so she closed her eyes in preparation for the disaster.

At that moment, a hand appeared around her waist and exerted an opposing force to support her falling body.

Thanks to that support, Amelie eventually found her balance and straightened up.

As she turned to thank the other person, she saw Leo's calm face.

He removed his hand and placed it into his pocket before turning to walk away, which made her wonder if it had merely been a hallucination.

However, she had a distinct sensation of someone clutching her waist, which reminded her that Leo had really helped her.

"Leo!"

A dejected voice rang out before the girl ran toward him.

"I'm your date.How can you be concerned for someone else?"

She sounded extremely sad, and her eyes were red.

The bouquet was still in her hands, which meant she had been the one who pushed Amelie away to grab the bouquet.

Amelie suppressed her disdain and did not scold her.

Leo's eyes fell on the bouquet for a moment.

"You pushed her away, so I should help her"

"I-Is that so?"

His explanation surprised and delighted the girl, making her gaze brighten.

"I thought you—’ She did not go on, her expression glowing with happiness.He had always been a quiet person and behaved coldly to everyone, so his words and assistance were enough to show his concern and attentiveness toward her.She wished she could let the entire world know she had received such a rare honor.

"Look, this is the bouquet I caught."

She pushed the bouquet toward him delicately, almost like she was asking for a reward.

"Yeah," he replied quietly.

"Let's go."

Jamic, who had been standing beside Amelie, frowned and shook his head at this.

"Alright,"

Amelie agreed, not wanting to witness their display of affection.

They both turned around and walked away.

Just as Amelie turned away, Leo's blank expression darkened considerably, and he pushed the bouquet away.

"It's late.Let's go back"

Meanwhile, Amelie sat with Jamie for a while.

While he couldn't avoid disparaging Leo, she behaved more calmly.

"Leo and I aren't involved in each other's lives, so you don't have to be petty over this."

Jamie sighed at her unruffled attitude.

"Since you no longer want to get back with Leo, why don't you date me? My mother keeps insisting that I find a capable wife to collaborate with, and you are the most reliable option out there."

She teased him gleefully, knowing that his mother didn't deviate from tradition and wanted him to strengthen the family business in such a way.His expression darkened and became pinched as he walked away.

However, she knew that he wasn't really angry and didn't mind it, putting down her glass and leaving the venue after that.She had brought a gift for Julia which she had put in the car.

Since she was unoccupied right now, she could take it and give it to her in case she forgot afterward.

She went down to the underground car park and couldn't find her car after looking around for a while, so she decided to just walk about while pressing the key in the hopes her car would react to it.

Her strategy worked as a car blinked several feet away.She lifted her skirt and ran quickly toward it.She was about to open the door when she saw a figure standing in the corridor.

It was so sudden that she couldn't react and was taken aback, but her retreat had thankfully prevented their collision.

"It’s you!"

She recognized the figure at once as Leo's date.

The girl didn’t turn around, her shoulders moving up and down as she sobbed.

Is she crying? Amelie was astounded.

If she remembered correctly, Leo had just been affectionate with her moments ago.

Why was she crying after such a short time? She looked around instinctively but did not catch sight of Leo or even his car.

What did this have to do with her, though? She suddenly realized she was being nosy and didn't look any further.

She went to open the car door and retrieved the gift before walking back.

"Miss Dillon," the girl called out nasally, sniffling as she walked toward Amelie.

She looked up pitifully at Amelie, her eyes and nose red from crying.

"Can you tell me how you got married to him back then?" Is she trying to get guidance? Amclic merely felt amused.

"Have you forgotten that we're divorced?"

"That's not important!"

The girl shook her head.

"I just want to know how you got married.I only want to marry him.She bit her lip pathetically.

"I really like him, and I really don't know how to live without him? Leo was like a drug, and just the sight of him was already intoxicating.She hadn't just seen him but also accompanied him on two appointments; she was even protected lovingly.She had thought herself to be different the entire time,

but Leo just told her that they shouldn't see each other anymore.He had broken up with her.It would have been better if she had never had him, but having him slip from her hands when she was about to secure him made it worse.She couldn't accept this at all, so she asked Amelie frantically for a way to marry him.
