    Chapter 366 Everything Is Fake


    “I don’t even know why he’s angry because everything was alright just a second ago,” she murmured,


    looking rather lost.


    Although Amelie understood what she was saying, she had no answers to her questions because, just


    like her, she couldn’t figure out what was on the current Leo’s mind as well.


    Nevertheless, one thing she was sure of—this girl in front of her had been dumped.


    “Smarten up and look for another man if you want to get married. It’s meaningless to attach yourself to


    a man who doesn’t give you his heart because you won’t get a happy ending.”


    This was the best and kindest advice she could offer her right now.


    “This is not true!” Despite that, the girl refused to believe her and red at her, arguing aggressively,


    “Leo is not that type of person. He’s a responsible man, and as long as I marry him, he’ll definitely treat


    me well and give me the world! You’re only criticizing him because you’re unhappy and jealous that


    we’re dating. That’s definitely it!”


    A speechless Amelie thought that she was probably bored out of her mind with plenty of time to spare,


    which led her to be a free therapist here; not only was she unable to help out with anything, she was


    even painted as the viin person in this situation.


    So, when she realized that there was nothing she could do for this woman, she decided not to continue


    the conversation and left after giving her a shrug.


    On another note, Samuel and Julia arranged a very packed schedule for themselves, hopping on their


    honeymoon right after the wedding ended.


    So, after Amelie gave them the wedding present, she did Julia a favor by dropping off Julia’s parents at


    their hotel room so that the newlyweds could have more time for themselves.


    It had been a tiring day for her parents as they had been traveling between ces the entire day and


    were beyond exhausted. Furthermore, they had to start the next day early to return home. Amelie was


    well aware of that. That’s why she left them soon after dropping them off so as not to disturb their rest.


    She had booked a flight for tomorrow morning, nning to return after sending off Julia’s parents.


    The thought of not knowing when she would return again made her feel a little reluctant to leave. So,


    she slipped into a daze as she leaned against the corridor railing and stared into nothing.


    “Hey, there.”


    While she was in a daze, she heard someone calling out of the blue. Initially, she thought that he was


    calling someone else, so she didn’t respond. But soon, someone approached her and stopped in front


    of her. “Since you are already back, why didn’t you visit the Alstons, Amelie?”


    Finally, it dawned on Amelie that he was speaking to her, and she turned to him in surprise.


    A young face entered her vision, and her brows furrowed as she racked her brains because she didn’t


    remember speaking to him before despite finding the face a little familiar.


    “Don’t you know who I am, Amelie?” A smile appeared on his face, and he looked like a kind littlemb.


    “We’ve met before, actually, but that was two years ago.”


    As Amelie had a good memory, some vague images popped into her mind after his reminder. She had


    indeed seen him before, but it was only once.


    Back then, he gave her a simr smile. Still, although he seemed friendly enough, he made her feel


    uneasy.


    “I actually have another identity. That is, Leo’s adopted brother,” the man said. He had a pair of sses


    across the bridge of his nose and seemed like a nerdy guy at first nce. “Since you’re my sister-in-


    law, just call me Chandler, then.”


    When he mentioned that, it urred to Amelie that the Alstons did have an adopted son. He was


    actually an orphan that Leo’s father, Warren, had been sponsoring until he enrolled in a school close


    nearby. Due to his circumstances, Warren eventually decided to just let him move into their house.


    After that, Warren was involved in a car ident with Leo, which caused Warren’s passing as Leo lost


    his eyesight.


    Melissa was terrified that the family’s assets would be taken away and cut up by other rtives, so she


    urgently changed his family name to Alston, acknowledged him as her son, and named him the next


    heir.

    That was why Amelie hadn’t seen Chandler before. He wasn’t in attendance during her wedding, and


    she was told that he was living abroad.


    Everything she knew about Chandler was pieces of broken information she gathered from Leo when


    she met him at Quinn Town.


    Later, when Leo regained his sight, Chandler was immediately chucked out of the picture by Melissa,


    who sent him abroad, implying that he should stay far away from them.


    “I’m sorry, Amelie, I’ve always been abroad all these years and rarely had the chance to return, so I’ve


    never met you officially,” Chandler exined.


    Amelie figured out his status in the family in a matter of seconds and didn’tment on it. Instead, she


    simply rified, “I have nothing to do with the Alstons because we’re divorced. So, you shouldn’t regard


    me as your sister-inw anymore.”


    A gentle and warm smile spread across his face. “I’m here to ask you for a favor, actually. Leo has


    been fooling around a lot for the past two years and caused quite some trouble, putting Mother in a


    pickle at home. Even though you’re divorced from him, I can tell that you have a special ce in his


    heart. Will you please help us to turn him around so he’ll keep his behavior in check?” He sighed before


    continuing, “I truly want Mother to be happy, but I’m just an adopted son. Even if I stay by her side


    every day, I can’t relieve or share her burden. But I truly am worried about her.”


    “I’m sorry, but I can’t help you.” If they didn’t consider her immense dislike for anything Melissa-rted,


    even if she had a good rtionship with that impossible woman, she wasn’t in the position to intervene


    in Leo’s private life. Thus, she immediately turned Chandler down, nodded at him, and turned to leave


    because she didn’t want to waste more time.


    “Leo really cares about you!” Unfortunately, the man didn’t seem to catch her meaning as he caught up


    to her and kept up with her pace as he continued, “Mother wanted to convert your room into a


    storeroom, but he refused to let her do it. Now, he even turned it into his own bedroom without moving


    anything that you’ve used before!”


    His words made her stop in her tracks abruptly, and she looked at him in disbelief.


    Then, Chandler sped his palms together and pleaded, “Please believe me. Everything I said is true,


    and I can even bring you there to have a look for yourself if you want! My dear sister-inw, there was


    probably some misunderstanding, and Leo divorced you unwillingly back then. All I ask of you is to give


    him another chance.”


    “Why are you telling me these?” Amelie asked, looking at him emotionlessly.


    “I just want to repay their kindness,” he answered honestly. “If it weren’t because of them, I wouldn’t


    even have the chance to attend school. There’s a high possibility that I’d still be trying to make ends


    meet at the lowest level of society. The only reason Leo is fooling around and dating different girls is


    because of frustration and boredom. I know he doesn’t have any feelings for them. I even know another


    secret. That is, he had never slept with any of these girls that he dated.”


    Hisst statement sounded ridiculous to her, and she asked, “How did the childrene about if he


    didn’t sleep with them?”


    “They are not his biological children!” Chandler blurted. “I did think that they were his children as well,


    and I became worried when he kept bringing the children home one after another. After that, I had each


    child undergo a paternity test, and the results showed that these children are unrted to Leo by blood.


    Eventer, I found the women he dated, and they confessed that they were merely his female


    companions in social events, and they barely even held hands. Those women who got pregnant simply


    took advantage of him when he was drunk and tried to create a scene without any hope that it would


    seed. Yet, Leo didn’t expose their lies and even kept the children. I’ve asked him about this before,


    and he said those women tried to ckmail him with the children so they could be his wife. Once they


    lose this opportunity, they would abandon these children instead of raising them properly. But he


    doesn’t want these children to be homeless because they reminded him of his daughter, and because


    he couldn’t raise his own daughter, he could only remember her in this manner,” Chandler said, tears


    building up in his eyes. “Amelie, do you know that he turned alcoholic in the past couple of years? If


    this continues, he could die. I know that he’s heartbroken and doesn’t want to break up with you, but at


    the same time, he feels that… he’s not good enough for you. Will you please, even if it’s for Bria’s sake,


    speak with him for even just a moment?”
