My Sugar And Your Spice Chapter 218

Brianna was in a deep sleep. Her skin was gleaming, her cheeks were puffing, and a bubble hung from her nose. Then she gurgled, perhaps seeing something in her dream.Amelie wanted to wake her up, but after hearing that laugh, she decided against it. In the end, she took a seat before the bed and whipped out her tablet from her bag. Then she hooked it up to a set of keyboards and started working away.The moment Amelie came, Leo lost his mood to work. He stood beyond the door, staring into the room. And he saw Amelie working away on her tablet. Her head was hanging slightly low, revealing her slender neck. A few strands of hair clung to it, swaying as she moved. Her profile was gentle and beautiful, her lips lustrous and pink. Her attention was on the screen before her. He had no idea what she was working on, but she looked beautiful when she was serious.Leo was immersed in the scene, only snapping out of it when Eugene came to hand in some documents. He put a finger to his lips.Oh, right. Bria. Eugene slowed down and handed the document to Leo. He whispered, “You need this in a moment.”Leo looked at the document, and then Eugene saw who was inside the room. The first person he saw had a slender figure belonging to a woman. Wait. That’s a woman in there! Eugene’s jaw dropped. Leo was someone who took relationships seriously. He never had any other woman other than Elyse. He would move away even when a woman was trying to touch his hand. Eugene thought he would find no other woman after Elyse, and yet now he saw his boss hiding a woman in his waiting room. Who is…Just when he was about to have a closer look, he felt a chill run down his spine, and he shivered. He looked back only to meet Leo’s stern, dark gaze. He shivered once more. It felt like he just had a hundred spears pierced through his body. He imagined his cartoon side jumping around while being pierced by spears. Quickly, Eugene looked down and took the file from his boss. He felt the file slamming into his hands, and the steel rings hit his pinky. Ow. Do you have to go that far? But he didn’t say that out loud.“Leave,” Leo said coldly.“Of course, sir.” Eugene ran off like the wind and closed the door. Once he felt that Leo’s sight was gone from his back, he heaved a sigh of relief. Gods, that was scary. But he was really bothered. I need to find out who she is. He didn’t even show that much love to Elyse.He thought Leo loved Elyse, as he never did anything when she threw her tantrums, but now heBelongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

realized love should manifest itself in the form of care. He didn’t care for Elyse. He just let her do what she wanted.It was already seven, and Brianna slowly woke up. Groggily, she rubbed her eyes, but when she saw Amelie, delight and surprise welled within her. “Mommy!”Amelie stopped working, and the girl pounced on her, leaning in her embrace. Amelie fell backward, but someone held her lower back, steadying her. She could feel the warmth of their hand through her shirt. It was a strong, warm hold. Amelie froze, and then Bria said, “Daddy!”She stared at her father with big, gleaming eyes. Amelie stiffly moved away from Leo’s hand. “Thank you.” He has a new girl now. I should keep away from him. “Bria,” said Leo. He noticed Amelie trying to distance herself, and he frowned, a hint of anger flowing in his eyes.Amelie didn’t care. She held Brianna in her hands and went to search for her shoes. “It’s late. We should go home now.”Home? Brianna curled up, upset. She said nothing, but it was clear she wanted to be with Leo. Amelie looked at her daughter, and she sighed. She is so forgetful. Every time Leo is nice to her, she forgets all the cold shoulders he gave her. But she said nothing. Gently, she said, “Grandpa is going to worry if we don’t go home.”Brianna said nothing more. She slid down and wore her shoes.Leo looked at the girl. “It’s late. She must be hungry now. Let’s have dinner first.”“It’s alright,” said Amelie politely. I can grab dinner with her after we leave this place.Leo added, “I promised I’d take her to Starlight Tower.”Starlight Tower was the tallest building in Clouson. Brianna saw an ad once, and she had been dying to go there. Ever since Amelie moved to Halport, work and studies had been taking up all her time, so they never had the chance to go. She looked at Brianna, and Brianna was staring at her, even forgetting to tie her shoes.“Let’s go,” said Leo.Amelie was about to say no, but Brianna stood up and tugged on her shirt. “Aw, Mommy, let’s go.”She stared at her mother with anticipation in her eyes. It was her best weapon to get what she wanted. Nobody could say no to that, but Amelie refused to have dinner with Leo.“We’re her parents. We should have dinner with her. Just because our marriage is over doesn’t mean we can take her rights away,” he said coldly. There was admonishment in his tone.Amelie had to agree with that.Leo approached the girl and helped her tie her shoes. He knelt on one knee and tied the knots for Brianna. He was clumsy, but he was serious. Once he was done, Leo carried Brianna and walked out the door without saying a word.Amelie looked at Brianna’s coat. She picked it up and hurried after Leo and Brianna. They got to the car park, and just

when Amelie wondered if she should drive or get into Leo’s car, she felt someone putting something into her hands.Leo placed Brianna in her hands, breaking the silence, “I don’t have a child seat. Take her.”Brianna wrapped her arms around her mother’s neck, giggling at her father. She might be young, but she was smart. She could see her father cared about her mother, and a cute smile curled her lips.Half an hour later, they came to Starlight’s basement car park. Once they were parked, Amelie got out of the car with Brianna in her hands. There were a lot of cars going around. Starlight was receiving a lot of customers.The moment Amelie got out of the car, the door of the car next to their car opened. She didn’t realize it, and the person in the car didn’t see her either. The door was about to hit her, and she quickly moved backward, but the cramped space made her lose her balance, and she gasped.Just when she and Brianna were going to fall, someone held her. “Are you alright, lady?”
