My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 7

reached out, turned off the gift-giving function, and said, “It’s our first gathering after four years. Thank you all for still remembering me. I’m here today to reconnect with you guys, so I won’t be accepting gifts.” Amelie, who resumed her live-streaming activity, suddenly regained her spirit. There would be times when she would alternate between the persona of being mischievous, innocent, cute, and aloof. Regardless of the requests, she could pull off all kinds of styles, repeatedly showing her unique talent. Bria, who was beside her, was a little shy at first. Yet, after she saw how relaxed and happy Amelie was, she, too, joined in. She sang, danced, and performed magic tricks with Amelie. The two of them had a great time. Leo, on the other hand, was in a terrible mood. I guess I’m a celebrity now, thanks to the drama that unfolded this morning. Right now, the whole city knows that I’m divorced! One whole morning, he’d received several calls from friends around him, but their first reaction wasn’t to congratulate him. Instead, they asked, “Did you two really divorce?

Isn’t that just an obvious criticism mocking me for being blind to Amelie’s good traits?! The more Leo thought about it, and the more angered he became. In fact, he was so enraged that he attended the grand ceremony without having lunch and gulped down glass after glass of wine. Next to Leo sat Toby. He happened to be reading articles related to Jamie as he swiped through the tablet screen in front of him. “I never knew your wife was so popular!” There was a gloating smile on his face when he said those words. Leo saw Toby’s gloating smile and felt that it was a piercing sight. His mood increasingly worsened, and he corrected Toby with a cold demeanor. “Ex-wife!” “Fine. Fine. Ex-wife. But it’s quite unfortunate, come to think of it. Although she did plot some scheme against you back then, she
