When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 386 A Familiar Face but an Unknown Heart
"We won't do anything!"
Julia stayed silent.
How could she just stand by and do nothing when her best friend was being insulted?
"I'm certain it's the Alston Family's doing! I will find them and make them clarify everything right away!"
Over the years, the Alston Family had been the only ones who truly crossed Amelie. After all, they were the ones who knew the
truth about what had happened in the past.
"Stay put," Amelie warned sternly. "Even if it was them, confronting them now will only make the accusations seem true to
outsiders."
"But..." Amelie's words were like a bucket of cold water, waking Julia up from her heated state of mind.
Julia's anger cooled as Amelie's words sank in. "Those ungrateful jerks," she muttered, still seething over the Alston Family's
betrayal.
"Jules, if you care about me, you need to calm down now," Amelie urged. "Our relationship will be public soon, and reporters will
be coming. If you can't keep your cool, it will only make things worse."
"Okay." Julia felt sorry for Amelie but had to agree with the latter.
"Don't worry. I won't say anything until you tell me to."
"Thank you."
"You also have to take care of yourself. I-If things get out of hand, don't panic. We'll handle it together," Julia said reassuringly.
Amelie knew Julia was afraid she would be upset and do something stupid, so she reassured the latter, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"What about tonight's live stream?" Julia asked.
"I'll do it," Amelie replied faintly. "If I stop now, they'll think I'm guilty."

"That's true." Julia agreed and didn't try to persuade her further. After giving some more bits of advice, she ended the call.
Meanwhile, Jodie laughed hysterically in a private room at the Prix Bar.
"See? This is the fate of those who dare challenge the Alston Family!"
News spread quickly, and the few topics she had her people prepare already reached the top five of trending news.
Jodie tapped her finger on the screen to open each one and checked the number of likes and comments.
The comments section was already a mess.
'I can't believe Miss Foxy is such a b*tch.'
'I never dreamt of that.'
'It's impossible. Someone must be framing her!'
'Do you know her?'
'Although she doesn't know me, I can tell from her appearance that she wouldn't do such a thing.'
'What has she given you in return for you to defend her like this?'
Although many comments supported Miss Foxy, more people doubted her innocence.
"We won't do anything!"
Julia stayed silent.
Additionally, Jodie deliberately purchased a group of bots to pose as relatives and servants of the Alston Family. Then, she
provided them with intricate details about the situation inside the Alston Residence. This resulted in a significant decline in the
number of people who supported Amelie.

Jodie's joy grew as she continued to read, causing her to burst into a fit of non-stop giggles. "Amelie, you believe you defeated
me in the past due to your abilities, but that is not the case. I purposely chose not to compete with you and gave you an easy
way out. However, since you seem unaware of what's best for you, I see no reason to continue being courteous."
The payback for the humiliation she had previously suffered was finally here, and Jodie couldn't describe how good she felt.
She urgently needed someone to share her joy with at this moment, but she didn't know whom to turn to.
After thinking for a while, she thought of Chandler.
In reality, she looked down on him.
Within the Alston Family, Chandler was considered to be nothing more than a faithful dog. He would eagerly respond to his
owner's commands and do whatever the latter requested. However, Jodie saw him as the most reliable and secure choice.
Thinking of this, she dialed Chandler's phone number. "Come over and have a drink with me."
Chandler came over in less than twenty minutes with a soft, pleasing smile.
"Jojo, what has made you so happy that you're drinking during the day?"
Jodie was lying on the couch with one leg casually resting on the other. One hand supported the back of her head, and she held
a glass of wine in the other. She waved at Chandler and said, "I'm so happy!"
He ran over and kneeled in front of her to massage her legs. "What's making you so happy?"
"Amelie has lost, and Miss Foxy's news is spreading online. Haven't you seen it?" Jodie grinned.
"Oh, I saw it." Chandler nodded. "I don't know which powerful person effortlessly crushed her like that."
Chandler acted like he had no idea Jodie did this, and her good mood disappeared.
Jodie called him over so that he could praise her, so when she thought of him saying how powerful she was, she relaxed.
I'd better not let this b*stard know that I'm the culprit. Otherwise, he'll blabber about it.
With this thought, she proudly lifted her chin and sneered.
She looked like a victorious rooster who didn't notice the pathetic man before her.

"But with Miss Dillon's abilities, she should be able to get herself out of trouble soon," Chandler said in a seemingly casual
manner.
Jodie let out another arrogant snort.
"Do you think this is all the culprit has? The real show is yet to come! They will make sure she won't be able to raise her head
again!"
Chandler heard it all.
Although Jodie was obvious, he pretended not to understand as he smiled foolishly.
A woman's jealousy is scary. It makes her do anything.
However, he was curious about what Jodie's real show was.
When Amelie returned home, she found that Steven had not returned yet.
Steven couldn't access the internet outside and wouldn't know about her situation for a while.
Amelie quietly cut off all the networks at home except for the live streaming room.
After doing so, she looked at the live-streaming directory and made some final adjustments.
While she was looking at it, Gladys' phone call came in.
Gladys knew she would do a live stream in the afternoon and would only call if it was urgent.
She answered the call. "Gladys?"
"Amelie, something has happened." Gladys panicked as she spoke.
"Did my incident cause a commotion at the company and the platform?" Amelie asked.
Although she rarely revealed her information on Knowlit, many people still knew about her relationship with it.
"No, it's regarding the couple from before." Gladys continued, "I don't know who did it, but someone took photos of them
attending the training camp and leaked their results. As a result, numerous students have become skeptical of their examination

scores, believing that our platform's exams are nothing more than a marketing ploy to lure in potential students!"
"Didn't we give them visitor passes?"
"We did. However, they didn't wear them during class, so..."
Amelie stayed silent.
"Even if they wear them now, it's too late. Everyone will think that we're covering the truth," Gladys said with a trembling voice.
This incident would have a huge impact on Knowlit.
Moreover, it happened when Amelie's identity was exposed, and she was embroiled in an ugly scandal.
"This incident has spread online, and you've taken up the top six headlines."
Within a day, six pieces of news related to Amelie were released.
The top six headlines were all about her, and even Amelie was impressed with the culprit's cruelty.
"What should we do now?" asked Gladys on the other side of the phone.
