My Sugar And Your Spice

"Excuse me. I need to use the washroom," Amelie said in a low voice. Although she wasn't fond of Toby, she didn't want to cause any trouble on this occasion. So, she hurried into the hall and headed toward the washroom.

She spent quite some time in the washroom. Since she was originally brought there to fill the scene, she wasn't willing to be out there, and now that Leo had arrived, she was even less willing to go out.

After she left the washroom, she didn't enter the hall. Instead, she walked toward a secluded area in the opposite direction of the hall, as she wanted to find a place to get this night over with quietly.

As she walked, she arrived at the back of a rockery with no one there. With the rockery and trees blocking her, even if someone passed by, they wouldn't see her.

Then, she noticed a stone bench behind the rockery, so she walked over to sit down. After lowering her head, she sent a message to Toby to let him know where she was so he wouldn't look for her everywhere.

As soon as she sent the message, she heard a voice say, "Toby really has special taste in women, choosing an influencer with 100 million followers. Doesn't he feel embarrassed?" The tone of the person speaking was sarcastic and harsh, making Amelie feel uncomfortable just by listening.

"In this day and age, capital is king. Being able to earn money and gather a fan base is a skill. Does the profession still matter?" Another woman's voice chimed in. "Didn't you see how Dad treated her just now? He ignored all the gifts given by his other granddaughters and grandsons-in-law but only treated her differently. Not only did he open the gift, but he also wore it on the spot."

"People are all treated differently, you see. Your Jackson and Harry, and my Kenny and Sage. Aren't they all his grandsons? But he just treats Toby better than he treats them!"

"I know, right!"

Upon hearing this, Amelie had already guessed who was speaking. These two people should be Toby's eldest aunt, Brenda Peyton, and second-eldest aunt, Eunice Monroe.

Alfred had three sons and several daughters.

Brenda and Eunice were still kind and considerate to her before this, but now they were criticizing her so harshly. At this thought, Amelie couldn't help but sigh. People in wealthy families have masks on all day long. It should be exhausting for them.

"Who knows? With this Foxy helping out, the inheritance rights of the Walsh Family might go to Theodore's family." Brenda sighed sulkily.

Following that was Eunice's sighing. "Your family still has a chance. At least there's still Michelle, who hasn't married yet. You should try to find a good one tonight, so you can have the chance to turn the tables. As for my family, all my sons and daughters are already married. There's no way to turn things around no matter what."
