My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 148

Melissa’s elegant face flinched, and it was apparent that she was unhappy, but she didn’t say anything and pointed to Henty, who took a step forward and said, “This time, we’re here for the custody of Miss Brianna again. Miss Dillon, the Alston Family would like her to return to the Alstons to live.”

“Didn’t we already make it clear before this?” Hearing that, Amelie frowned deeply and looked very much annoyed. When will the Alstons give it up?

“That was in the past when you acted like a mother, at least. Considering that it wasn’t easy for you to give birth to Bria, we allowed her to be under your care for a while.” Melissa lowered her eyes and patted the hem of her skitt. Her disregard for Amelie was clear for all to see. “It’s proven now that you’re unqualified. As a descendant of the Alstons, Bria shouldn’t be wasting her time with you.”

“Unqualified? When did you see that I’ve been an unqualified mother?”

Any excuse would serve a tyrant. However, Melissa’s excuse was simply too far-fetched, and Amelie’s face turned stone cold as she shot Melissa an icy glare. Her tone wasn’t aggressive, but it was indifferent and carried some power.

Tilting her head, Amelie smirked and answered, “I have no idea. Why don’t you point it out for me, Mrs.

Alston?”

Melissa’s brows jumped with fury, but she sniggered as her self-righteous superiority appeared on her well- maintained face. Instead of answering directly, she lifted her finger and pointed. “Mr. Jute.”

Raising his square and angular face, Henry hurriedly acknowledged her with great politeness.

However, in Amelie’s eyes, he was every bit like a toady, no matter how she looked at him.
