to a convenient place to call a cab and stopped. “We’re here; thank you, Mr. Alston.” After she finished speaking, she took Bria from his arms and walked forward. “Amelie!” Leo stopped her. “I will make up for what I owe Bria, but my children will never need someone else as a father. This is my bottom line!” “I’m curious. How will you make up for Bria, Mr. Alston?” Amelie stopped and looked at him with a half-smile. “I will have someone revoke our divorce tomorrow. You will move back to the Alston Residence, and I will try my best to spend time with Bria.” “Revocation of the divorce?” Amelie was quite surprised to hear Leo say this. “Mr. Alston, does Miss Clayton agree with this decision?” “Why do you want her to agree?” Whenever Leo faced Amelie, his tone would become quite impatient. “You two are already engaged. This is the minimum level of respect for your new fiancée.” “Engaged?” Leo was obviously taken aback for a moment, but he did not bother to explain much. “Just do as I say, and don’t worry about anything else!” Amelie had long been used to Leo’s attitude. She was not angry but just tilted her head and asked, “Let me ask you a question that I am more concerned about. Mr. Alston, are you revoking our divorce because you love me?” “All I want is to give my child a complete family!” Leo threw out a warning without even thinking about it. I knew it! Amelie laughed at him. “Mr. Alston, do you actually think that having both parents is the best way to make up to a child? You haven’t tasted what it’s like growing up in a single-parent family, so how do you know that kind of family is not good? I haven’t had a mother since I was a child. My father raised me alone, but I have never felt unhappy. He gave me all his love, and he only asked me for one thing—to be happy. However, our marriage lasted for four years. Bria is three years old this year. Ask her, was she happy during the three years? She had been afraid that you, your mother and your sister might be unhappy, and that if you guys were unhappy, you would give me trouble and I would be unhappy. In order not to make you guys unhappy, she tried her best to be well-behaved and sensible. She did not even care to dance anymore! Are you trying to drive her crazy by wanting her to live in such a depressing environment?” Speaking of this, Amelie could not help choking. “These can all be changed.” Leo did not think it was a big deal. “So what if they could be changed? It’s an indisputable fact that you don’t love me. What will Bria think when she grows up? She will feel that it is because of her existence that we have to be bound together. She will feel like a sinner!” Leo was speechless. Before Amelie said this, he thought this was the best way to make up for Bria. “Don’t worry, Mr. Alston, I will take good care of Bria.” Nodding at him, she left with her sore arms that were holding Bria. … Leo did not go home but went to Elyse’s residence.
