My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 268

day, then it is clear how close their relationship is. Now that Melissa had confirmed their relationship, she was even more eager to impress Foxy.She even went up to Amelie and patted her on the shoulder, saying, “Come to Alston Residence more often. I will prepare delicious food for you. We have plenty of rooms, so even if you want to stay overnight, it’s no problem.” Melissa was so desperate to please Amelie that she forgot all about decency and just wanted them to get together quickly and sleep together. She had been politely addressing Foxy as “Miss Foxy” just now, and now she even offered to cook for Foxy. “Leo is a reserved person and may not know how to take the initiative. But I’m sure he won’t change his mind since he’s interested in you. You gotta take the lead sometimes,” Melissa said, hinting at what she wanted. She almost asked Amelie to jump Leo right then and there.Amelie listened to Melissa’s ridiculous words and burst out laughing. Melissa was puzzled by her laughter, but it didn’t bother her much. Again, she went straight to the point and said, “Although I’m Leo’s mother, I’m very clear-minded. If he ever dares to bully you, I will be the first to disagree! Foxy, don’t worry. I have got you covered. You’re like a daughter to me.”After saying that, she even held Amelie’s hand and stroked it. Amelie was disgusted and quickly withdrew her hand, saying, “I’m sorry, I don’t know Mr. Alston very well.” She then walked away quickly.She could have taken off her mask and embarrassed Melissa right then and there. That would have been amusing. But it wasn’t necessary. The meaning of her life was not to show off to anyone. She was very perceptive, and in her eyes, all those scenarios of so-called “eating one’s own words” came about only because one hadn’t let go of the past. True freedom was forgetting about the past.“Oh, really? You’re not close…” Melissa watched as Amelie got into the car and drove off. She couldn’t catch up, so she could only sigh as she watched the car disappear.The red car seemed familiar somehow, but she didn’t think much of it and focused more on why “Foxy” wanted to distance herself from Leo. Could it be because she’s shy?Melissa pursed her lips at the thought. She turned back and walked outside the parking lot, where she happened to see Leo standing by the road, seemingly lost in thought.“Leo.” Melissa normally didn’t like to greet Leo very much, as he was often cold toward her and she didn’t want to make a fool of herself. But now that she had something on her mind, she didn’t care about that as much.“I saw you with Foxy earlier. What’s your relationship with her?”Leo turned his head and saw Melissa who
