My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Chapter 323

Chapter 323 The One for Him

The phone call was from Leo. Why is he calling me at this time? Without thinking, Amelie hung up the phone, but he seemed to be persistent as he called her once again. So, she turned her phone to silent mode and held it in her palm without looking at it again.

After a while, she heard the sound of someone giggling beside her, followed by something tugging at her clothes.

As she turned around, she saw a chubby, soft, tiny hand on her clothes. The little hand was pulling her clothes back and forth, refusing to let go.

Following the little hand, she saw a little guy who was as soft and chubby as his hand.

The little guy was probably only a few months old. With one hand, he was pushing against the person who was holding him with all his might and was tugging at Amelie's clothes with the other. He was panting and grunting, looking as though he wanted to struggle out of the person's arms.

His little eyes were like black grapes, and he was darting around constantly while his little mouth kept spitting bubbles with saliva. He was so adorable and lively.

When he noticed that Amelie was looking at him, he grinned and giggled at her.

"This little guy. You already know how to flirt with girls when you're this young." The person holding the little guy was a young man. He sighed helplessly as he looked at his baby with an affectionate gaze. It was evident that he loved his son to the bone.

After nagging his son, he turned to look at Amelie and said politely, "Sorry about that. My son is quite outgoing."

Immediately, Amelie recognized that he was Jimmy, the brother-in-law of Toby. Jimmy and Leo were close business partners, and he used to occasionally visit the Alston Residence. When he married Toby's sister, Yasmine, Amelie was not allowed to participate in the wedding ceremony, but she had known the relationship between the two families through Jodie and Melissa.

"It's okay." When she heard his apology, she smiled and shook her head. Then, she touched the hand of the little guy who was tugging at her clothes. "He's quite cute."

"He he." The little guy seemed to understand her words as he smiled at her with his toothless mouth, drooling profusely.

He was dressed in a pumpkin-shaped outfit, like a cute little pumpkin. Jimmy, on the other hand, wore the costume of a certain anime character, which had a bit of a dark and cool vibe to it.


Meanwhile, his wife beside him, Yasmine, was wearing a similar style of clothing but in a long dark blue skirt. Her long hair was let down, and she wore a beautifully crafted headpiece made of tree branches decorated with flowers in the same color scheme. She looked both beautiful and witty.

Seeing Amelie's interaction with her son, Yasmine also smiled politely. "He's just not easy to handle."

However, the little one didn't care what the adults were saying and continued to struggle out of Jimmy's arms, trying to run into Amelie's arms.

Jimmy also allowed the little one behave however what he wanted, and in a blink of an eye, his head had already bumped into Amelie's arms.

Instinctively, Amelie caught him, and the little one giggled again.

Taking advantage of the situation, he grabbed the fake fur on her fox mask and put it in his mouth. He looked like he was going to nibble on her face as small droplets of saliva were all over.

She was amused and resigned at the same time. Afraid that he would cause any trouble, she quickly pulled out a colored candy from her pocket to tease him.

Sure enough, the little one fell for it and forgot about nibbling on her face. He stretched out his chubby hand and snatched the candy away.

"You're amazing, Miss Foxy. You tamed this little mischief in no time." Yasmine looked at her son, who had become well-behaved in Amelie's arms, with disbelief in her eyes. This was because she herself was always made a mess by this little one, and she even wished she could put him back in her belly.

When Amelie heard the compliment, her lips under the mask curled up in a faint smile. After all, she had raised Bria on her own, so she had some experience handling children.

As the two of them were chatting, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears. "Happy birthday!" It was a familiar voice, with a hint of coldness in its tone. There was hardly any fluctuation in its tone, even when facing people whom he was close to.

Hearing that voice, Amelie couldn't help but turn around to look and happened to see Leo walking in with Eugene's company. They were already standing in front of Alfred.

Leo was dressed in a vintage suit, which made his sharp facial features more elegant and charming. He looked so handsome and beautiful, and the long wig on his head added a touch of scholarly elegance and nobleness to his usual charm. With the sharp contrast formed between his dark clothing and his fair skin, he captured countless eyes the moment he appeared.

Meanwhile, Eugene stood behind him, looking grand and imposing. However, he was still overshadowed by Leo in terms of aura and appearance.

"Wow! So handsome!" Alfred sincerely exclaimed. "Young people are just different from us old ones, full of vitality."

He was always serious toward outsiders; even his own grandchildren rarely received a smile from him, but he treated Leo differently, as he didn't see Leo as a junior but as an equal. It was enough to show how much he admired Leo.

Even with Alfred's praise, Leo showed no sign of being flattered. While maintaining his etiquette, he presented his prepared gift.

Watching the interaction between the two, Amelie gave herself a facepalm in frustration. How can I forget that Leo will be here too? She had only agreed to pretend to be a couple with Toby to help him out, and she didn't want too many people to know about it.

As Leo handed over the gift and looked up, he caught a glimpse of Amelie in the crowd. Instantly, his perfectly icy face froze, and his expression changed.

Alfred seemed to notice his gaze, so he introduced her to him. "This is Miss Foxy. You should know her, right?"

Foxy had 100 million followers, so she was well-known by many.
