A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 344 Low-Class

“See that? Your daddy is a strong man. He doesn’t need help.” Amelie jerked her chin in Leo’s direction as she spoke to Bria. She then dragged Bria to the other side of the rink.

Then, he silently stared at her, speechless.

It was not that he did not need help; instead, he did not need help from any other woman but her. What a heartless woman.

His heart clenched as he watched them skate away. The dejection born from being abandoned and ignored hurt more than the bruises on his body.

On the other hand, Amelie and Bria skated for an hour before leaving the rink. By the time they left, Leo was nowhere to be seen.

However, Bria could not resist glancing at the spot her father had fallen earlier. When she recalled how he looked when falling, she pursed her lips. It is entirely my fault for devising such a terrible plan. When my daddy fell, he looked so pitiful.

While Amelie did not pity Leo, Bria did not blame her for that. After all, her mother suffered much worse when they lived with him.

Still, would he stop coming to the rink because he had fallen too many times and humiliated himself?

Nevertheless, Bria still hoped for her parents to get back together, so her heart sank when she thought about how she might not see Leo again.

Amelie could see Bria was in a bad mood, so she suggested a nice meal.

Bria was currently in a growth spurt and had a big appetite. So, when she heard her mother would treat her to some steak, she was drooling. “Mama, I want the biggest steak! I want bibimbap and that sweet Fairy’s Drink.”

She had tried Perouvian cuisine a few times before, and these were the dishes she loved the most. The Fairy’s Drink she spoke of was a special fruit tea with added passion fruit. There was even a slice of lemon on top. It was fruity, sweet, and beautiful.

Steven might be a fantastic chef, but he was not good at Perouvian cooking. After all, she was still a child, and after eating the same food too many times in a row, she yearned for something different.

Hearing that, Amelie wiped the drool off her daughter’s face with a soft smile. “Okay. We’ll order anything you want.”

As they continued to talk, they walked into a Perouvian restaurant. Nonetheless, the food Bria ordered was not considered the expensive items on the menu. However, Amelie did not know much about Perouvian cuisine, so she always ordered discounted meals on the coupon site.

Without hesitation, Bria grabbed her mother’s phone and tapped into the coupon site to order a meal she had eaten before.

“Good afternoon,” the smartly dressed server cheerfully greeted them with a polite smile.

“We want this set,” Bria said as she held up the phone to show the server their coupon.

When the server saw they wanted to order a discounted value meal, the sweet smile on her face instantly vanished. The discounted meals they offered through the coupon site were only meant to attract foot traffic to the shop. Hence, there was not a lot of profit to be gotten from those sales.

At that moment, it was also the peak lunch hour. Therefore, having the tables be taken by customers who would not give the restaurant much profit would be a waste.

“We do not have any tables for two. Please wait,” the server coldly stated as she scribbled a note. After she handed it to them, she immediately walked away.

Nevertheless, Bria said nothing and took Amelie’s hand. “Let’s wait over there, Mama.”

“Okay.”

While Amelie noticed the server’s abrupt change in behavior, she did not want to let Bria know about it. Hence, she smiled as she walked to sit in the waiting area with her daughter.

After waiting a few minutes, she felt the urge to go to the bathroom. She leaned over to stroke Bria’s head. “I need to go to the bathroom. Do you need to go?”

“No, you go. I’ll wait here for you,” Bria replied as she snuggled into Amelie’s touch. Then, she turned her face to peek at her mother with bright eyes from behind Amelie’s hand.

Then, she changed out of her exercise outfit to put on a shirt and a pair of jeans. Wrapped in denim fabric, her legs looked very long and slender.
