My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 2

weeks, but we’re already bumping into each other shortly after our divorce, Amelie thought and sighed. Just as she was about to avoid them, Elyse saw her and took the initiative to greet the woman.  She smiled and said, “Miss Dillion, are you here to see Leo?” Before Amelie could deny it, she continued, “I’m so sorry for what happened. Leo was just helping me to retrieve something at the Civil Affairs Bureau. I didn’t know that you guys would get a divorce because of this.” No wonder Leo arrived earlier today. If not for Elyse’s words, I would have thought that Leo had some feelings for me within the last four years of our marriage. Fortunately, I’ve already made up my mind to forget about him. Otherwise, I would be heartbroken, Amelie thought sarcastically.  “I’m glad that there is a cooling-off period. Leo, talk it out with her, okay?” Elyse said softly. Then, she pushed Leo forward and walked away. Once they were left alone, Amelie tried explaining immediately since she didn’t want him to misunderstand. “I’m not here for you. This is all a coincidence.” However, Leo didn’t believe her and said, “Stop playing hard to get. It’s useless!” Then, he lowered his head and stared at Amelie, noticing her new hairstyle and clothes. He assumed that she looked like this in order to catch his eyes. To be honest, Leo didn’t believe that Amelie wanted a divorce and thought that she was just trying to play some tricks on him during the cooling-off period. The more she acted like this, the more he hated her. “Playing… Playing hard to get?” Amelie couldn’t believe her ears when she heard his words. She was shocked that Leo would think of her like this when they had already divorced, so she was upset by his words.
