Chapter 246

“Urgh!” As Elyse returned to Michael’s house, she constantly stomped and kicked to throw a tantrum.

The news of Amelie going public with her ‘relationship’ had put Elyse in a very passive position.

Her investors fled and abandoned her while reporters followed her relentlessly. In fact, her original

residence was surrounded by reporters, so she could only temporarily escape to Michael’s place.

The conditions at Michael’s place were bad and inconvenient, so she had to negotiate with Amelie to

try to calm things down. Not only did I fail, but I was also bullied by that damn woman!

As she looked at the scratch on her nose in the mirror, she was so enraged that she wanted to eat

Amelie alive. Did that woman have some mighty pills? Where does her strength come from?

Recalling the scene made her body establish a conditioned reflex as her body trembled involuntarily.

How can I show myself with a scar like this on my flawless face? She had always viewed appearance

as her life, so the injury was not just a display of Amelie’s aggression; it was Amelie going after her life!

Even though a thousand ways to get revenge on Amelie and tear her to pieces ran through Elyse’s

mind, she couldn’t find anyone willing to help her after going through her contacts. Those men who

used to pursue her would extend an olive branch and flirt with her, but after learning that she might play

for the other team, they all blocked her.

Only Ashton still treated her as before, but since his injury from the car race, his father had kept him at

home. So, he couldn’t move an inch from there. As for Leo, the only feeling he had for her was disgust,

so he would never help her. No matter how hard she tried to think of a way, she had nothing but dead

ends.

As she was annoyed and frustrated, she saw Ellen walking toward her, munching on a piece of bread.

Instantly, she strode over and snatched the bread from her hand, throwing it into a garbage bin. “All you

ever do is eat, eat, eat! You’ll eat yourself to death!”

With a mouthful of bread still in her mouth, Ellen started crying and wailing when she saw her bread

being tossed into the garbage bin. This made bits of breadcrumbs fly all over Elyse’s face.

Ignoring her appearance, Ellen rushed over and flipped the garbage bin over, trying to retrieve her

bread.

At this moment, Elyse was speechless. Her image was completely ruined with breadcrumbs all over

her face. While covering her face, she screamed, “Do you have a death wish?!”

Meanwhile, Ellen was solely focused on retrieving her bread and didn’t hear what Elyse said at all.

After living on the streets for many years, she knew that food shouldn’t be wasted, even though her

mental state was not entirely clear.

Seeing her scavenging for food, Elyse didn’t feel pity for her but rather grew even angrier. “Even you

are picking on me now!”

With a stride, she rushed over and kicked Ellen in the back. Clang! Ellen fell into the garbage bin and

toppled over with it.

“What are you doing? Why did you hit your sister? Do you want to die?” Michael happened to return

from an errand with various bags in his hands. When he saw Ellen on the ground, he dropped

everything and rushed to help her up. While assisting her, he brushed the garbage off her clothes and

gave Elyse an angry look. “Don’t you know that she is our lucky star? Our future success depends on

her. If you hurt her and anything serious happens to her, you’ll be sorry when Leo finds out!”

At the mention of Leo, Elyse couldn’t help but shudder. She began to regret laying her hands on Ellen,

but she still refuted the truth and yelled, “Well, she’s annoying!”

“Bread. My bread.” Ellen wasn’t in the mood for their argument about her, as her eyes were only on the

bread covered in garbage. She continued to stretch out her hand to reach for it.

After glaring at Elyse, Michael quickly took out more snacks from the bags to coax Ellen. Only after that

did she calm down and let him lead her to the couch. Then, he kneeled to tear open the snack

packaging and placed a glass of water on the coffee table before her. His attentive care would have

made an outsider mistake him for a doting father.

Only after he settled Ellen down did he hold his flabby waist to stand up straight and look at Elyse.

“You… Not only did you not accomplish anything, but you destroyed everything. You can’t even handle

a simple task. All you know how to do is pick on your sister. Let me tell you this. Be kind to her from

now on, or I’ll even need to ask you to leave.”

The rumor about Elyse being queer had spread widely, so of course, he knew about it. Initially, he liked

her because she reminded him of himself, but he became unhappy when he saw her in such a passive

state.

Being treated like this by her biological father upset her, and she couldn’t hold back her tears anymore.

“How can you blame everything on me? This is all Amelie’s fault. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t be in

such a difficult situation. I’m your daughter! Why are you scolding me instead of helping me? Why don’t

you think that no matter how much gratitude this fool has toward Leo, she cannot achieve anything

without me? She’s useless! If I cannot get back up, we will both be left with nothing!”

It was evident that Michael knew he still needed Elyse to succeed, so he softened his tone. “I was just

too anxious. If this doesn’t work out, you don’t have to go on the show. We can ask Leo to make you a

movie. So what if Amelie can go on a variety show? It’s not like she can be in a movie.”

Hearing that, she snorted. “She’s intentionally targeting me. Even if I play a part in a movie, she can

still find a way to cause me trouble!”

“I mean, why does she hold such a big grudge against you?” He couldn’t help but scratch his head.

“God knows!” Elyse didn’t want to expose what she had done. “Maybe because I had Leo’s heart

previously, so she became jealous and wants to rake things up now!”

“Is that possible?” As Michael raised his chin, he showed disbelief on his face. He had spent half his life

deceiving others, so he could guess someone’s character just by looking at them. Moreover, he had

stayed with the Claytons long enough to know Amelie and her father well.

Elyse knew that her father wasn’t easy to fool, so she quickly changed the subject. “So, are you helping

me or not? If you aren’t, we can just wait to be doomed together!”

“Of course, I want to help you.” As he scratched his head, his small eyes darted around like a mouse.

“But I can’t think of a way now.”

“My goodness… How come even your brain isn’t working?” Since she couldn’t come up with a solution

herself and now, he seemed just as useless, she was both annoyed and upset.

Just then, her phone rang. She was extremely annoyed looking at the phone number because, lately,

various reporters had been calling her to ask about her relationship with Foxy. They wanted insider

information, but when she told them the truth, they didn’t listen. It was like talking to a brick wall.

So, her first instinct was to hang up the phone, but for some reason, just as she was about to press the

hang-up button, her finger moved and landed on the answer button.

“Hello, is this Miss Clayton? I’m a reporter from Sky News.” As expected, a reporter’s voice came from

the other side of the phone.

Only then did Elyse realize how foolish her action was just now, so her finger was already hovering

over the hang-up button.

Seemingly knowing what she was going to do, the reporter quickly said, “Wait, I’m not here to ask

about your relationship with Foxy. I have something important that I think I can help you with.”

“What is it?” she asked coldly. Although she was curious, she pretended to be uninterested.
