A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 286 His Attention on Her

“I’m scared, Leo.” Ellen was trembling in fear, looking like a scared kitten. She curled up in Leo’s embrace as she mumbled, “Snakes are scary. I’m afraid of snakes.”

Amelie looked at her speechlessly. We’re standing on a big path here. No snakes will take up residence in a place without grass. Only Leo will believe something that stupid, but what do I care? It’s their relationship and their fun. She turned around and resumed picking leaves.

The moment Amelie turned around, Leo frowned hard, his expression black as thunder. “Then f*ck off!” he said coldly.

Ellen froze and looked at him in disbelief. But he was so nice to me a while ago! What happened? Like a child who got scolded by her parents, she teared up.

However, Leo spared her no sympathy. He entered the mountain and the moment he did, he heard gasps of pain. When Leo raised his head, he was met with Amelie and Fiona jumping around.

“I stepped on an anthill!” Amelie gasped, her voice trembling, though she wasn’t exaggerating her reaction.

Yet, it worried Leo and he quickly ran toward her.

Amelie and Fiona ran in different directions, trying to get away from the anthill. Then, Amelie ran into someone. Caught by surprise, she bumped her head and stumbled into an embrace. “Ow!” Amelie turned around, holding her head, and she was greeted by a resigned Blake.
