When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 19

injury on Leo’s hand and stopped him when he was about to open the door of the car. “Why don’t I drive? You can hold Bria for me at the back.” “You can drive?” There was an obvious surprise on Leo’s face. She did not just “know” how to drive. After Amelie lived for four years in the Alston Family, Leo did not know that she could drive. That was enough to prove how much he ignored her. Amelie did not say much. She just hummed and took the key from him. Leo said nothing and got into the car. When Amelie handed the child to him, he was completely at a loss. “Just hold her head.” Amelie raised his arms a little higher and leaned the child’s small head on his chest. Leo dared not move. Looking down, he saw the child’s pink cheek leaning against his chest. Her fine hair was fluffy, and at that moment there was a hint of softness in his heart. Amelie did not say anything. She got in the car and started the car at once. Not wanting Leo to know where she lived, she drove the car 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
