Chapter 175

“Miss Dillon?”

When Amelie arrived at the riverside opposite Starlight Media, she was stopped by a young lady. Then,

she nodded without saying anything and glanced at the familiar figure not far away. Even though the

other person was only a few feet away, she could sense an air of superiority emanating from that other

person, which made her uneasy.

“Come here.” The woman nodded at her and led her to the familiar figure.

“Mrs. Alston, Miss Dillon is here,” the young lady informed.

The woman did not turn around but instead authoritatively waved her hand. So, when the young lady

saw that, she lowered her head and retreated.

Meanwhile, Amelie silently watched the woman’s annoying behavior and felt speechless. “Is something

the matter, Mrs. Alston?” she inquired directly.

Melissa eventually turned around but did not meet her gaze, and there was a hint of displeasure on her

face. It was an expression of dismay at Amelie’s lack of respect for her. As was her custom, she

conveyed her emotions solely through her facial expression without further explanation. Simply

lowering her gaze, she could make anyone feel small and vulnerable.

Nevertheless, Amelie still felt oppressed despite being used to her behavior.

“Do you know why I must fight for Bria’s custody, Amelie?” Melissa finally spoke.

Suddenly, Amelie could finally heave a breath. Don’t you get tired of laying the groundwork and putting

up a front? My heart goes out to her. “Let’s cut to the chase.” She had never fancied beating around the

bush, so she reminded Melissa directly.

Melissa frowned in displeasure when she heard that. She could no longer control her expression as

she felt offended. However, she knew Amelie would not surrender to her like that, so she stifled her

anger and finished her sentence. “Our family owns a huge company, so we can’t tolerate malicious

comments from the public. You are financially supported by Starlight Media’s boss to raise Brja, and it

has become an act of humiliation to our family. We cannot allow you to continue humiliating us, so we

will fight for Bria’s custody at all costs!”

“Is that what Leo wants?” Amelie questioned calmly while looking into her eyes.

Melissa froze for a moment before responding, “This is what our family wants.”

In other words, he was bound by whatever the Alstons decided.

The words caused Amelie to frown and she felt a sharn nain in her chest hit cho mickly

must have spent so much time writing a great script that he almost cost Elyse her future.

Initially, she planned on telling Melissa that she was Starlight Media’s owner and paying for Bria’s

upbringing from her savings. On the other hand, after hearing Melissa’s remarks, she was no longer in

the mood to make such a declaration. While that statement would be a slap in the face to Melissa and

the Alstons, it would also give the impression that she had not moved on. Furthermore, it would imply

that she could not detach herself from that deceitful family, which would be like rubbing salt in her own

wounds.

“Does that mean as long as I don’t use the money offered by Starlight Media’s boss and give up on the

job offer, you will not interfere with me and Bria’s lives?” Raising her chin slightly, Amelie enunciated

every word as she looked into Melissa’s eyes.

Seeing how serious Amelie was, Melissa snickered in her heart. Pfft, acting so high and almighty.

Whom are you trying to show off to?How is a useless woman going to survive without a man? Her

intention on that particular day was part of a deliberate plan to ensnare Amelie, and she needed to

execute it successfully. Then, mirroring her expression, Melissa intentionally nodded with grace. “Yes.”

“Deal!” Amelie quickly agreed.

Despite agreeing to the terms without hesitation, Melissa felt nothing was amiss.

She tried to keep her cool but could not help but remind Amelie, “Think about it carefully. That means

you can’t spend any money he gives you, no matter what method you use. All the money you put

towards Bria’s upbringing must come from your hard work. It should have nothing to do with Starlight

Media’s boss!”

As if afraid that Amelie might go back on her words, Melissa took out a small notepad. “If you can do it,

sign this agreement. The agreement will take effect after you sign it. Once signed, you must willingly

give up Bria’s custody when you spend a penny of his money, We will come and take Bria away!”

Amelie was well aware of what Melissa’s plan was. She thinks that I won’t make enough to support

myself and Bria. Moreover, she is waiting for me to violate the contract or my inability to raise Bria so

that the Alstons can take custody of my daughter.

Without the slightest hint of hesitation, Amelie grabbed the agreement and signed her name on it.

Then, she handed it back to Melissa. “There you go. The agreement goes into effect today.”

Suddenly, Melissa’s jaw dropped as she stared at Amelie. I do not believe she will sign the agreement

so quickly. My initial assumption is that it will be difficult to convince her to relinquish custody of her

daughter to me. “Let me remind you one more time. You can only support Bria with your own income

without the involvement of Starlight Media or monetary support from others,” she reminded her.

cancel the 20 million education fund for Bria!”

After saying that, she kept her phone gracefully. “Is that enough? If not, you may deploy a financial

team to monitor my financial situation at any time.”

Melissa was dumbfounded by Amelie’s attitude. Soon, after hearing what she said, Melissa kept quiet

and snatched the agreement before shoving it into her bag. After that, she stomped away.

“I had no idea Melissa Alston would pull such a stupid act. The Alstons will be too embarrassed to ask

for Bria’s custody later under this agreement.” In the office, Julia snatched the agreement from Amelie,

flipped through it, and remarked sarcastically. Soon, anger no longer painted across her face but was

replaced with her usual energetic expression.

After taking a seat, Amelie rubbed her temples and chimed in, “Yeah. That’s for the better.”

“I’m looking forward to the day those b’stards from the Alston Family see you living a prosperous life

even though you didn’t get money from Starlight Media.” Immersing herself in her imagination, Julia

laughed out loud.

On the contrary, Amelie pulled an indifferent expression. “They have no right to see how prosperous

my life is.”

“That’s right, but those b’stards are crossing the line. They make me want to slap them in the face!”

Julia huffed and was secretly plotting in her mind. I need to find a chance to show those arrogant

b’stards that the woman they look down on is not an easy enemy!

“It’s a great day for shopping today! Come with me!” After making that statement, Julia was eager to

leave.

Given that Amelie already planned to go shopping for new seasonal clothing for her father and

daughter, she quickly agreed.

After a round of shopping, both managed to haul a few bags. Nonetheless, they were relieved to learn

that the luxurious mall provided services that would deliver their purchases directly to their homes.

The two only left the mall when they were satisfied with their purchases. However, when they left the

building, they ran into two familiar faces. As soon as Julia caught sight of the couple, her smile/turned

to disgust.
