When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 202

Alston, would you like to join us?”“Sure.” Leo stood up as well.He frowned a little. He didn’t like her calling him ‘Mr. Alston’.On the other hand, Amelie was at a loss for words.She thought that he would decline, and she didn’t mean to invite him along at all.Sadly, what was said had been said, so she couldn’t take back her words. It was fortunate that she made extra breakfast.Amelie wheeled Bria out of the room, then poured a bowl of chicken soup for Bria and Leo respectively.Leo looked down at the chicken soup, an ambiguous look in his gaze.Amelie suddenly remembered that this was his favorite dish.

She was secretly observing the adults’ reactions.“Daddy, have some dumplings. Mommy made them herself. Mommy also baked these buns.” Bria suddenly reached out and passed a dumpling and a bun to Leo.There was a proud look on her face, and it was paired with an earnest wish.She thought that her mother’s cooking was the best, so she sincerely wanted her father to try them.Of course, she also wished that Leo would fall in love with her mother’s cooking, hence deciding never to leave her mother again.Leo froze for a moment, his hand still
