My Sugar And Your Spice

me for taking up Leo’s time. “It’s not urgent,” Leo replied before he moved to sit beside Bria. Amelie stared at the man for a brief moment, but the man was already busy picking up Bria’s bowl to scoop up some rice for her. He scooped another bowl for himself before he reached for Amelie’s bowl in front of her. She was utterly speechless at that point. Doesn’t he care about Elyse anymore? In that case, why did he seem so uneasy earlier, then?She only returned to her senses when she felt the weight of a bowl on her palm. What was I thinking about? It doesn’t matter if Leo cares about Elyse. It’s none of my business. The person who should be worried about this is Miss Joyner. Moreover, he’s probably only staying because he doesn’t want to disappoint Bria. At that thought, Amelie looked up and focused on eating her meal.She was a fast eater.

Leo watched as Amelie cleaned the table up with an apron around her waist. For some reason, she seemed both similar yet completely different from the person she was back when she was in the Alston Family. Leo couldn’t tell what the change was about.When he glanced at his daughter, who was playing on her own in the hall, and the woman who was hard at work before his eyes, he felt a wave of serenity washing over him. It felt as if he had finally got home after walking through a snowstorm. This was something he had never experienced back when he was in the Alston Residence.Amelie felt somewhat puzzled when she walked out of the kitchen after washing her bowls. Why is
