My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Chapter 334

Chapter 334 Mr. Alston Has a Soft Side

Amelie stared at the woman blocking her way. The woman was slender and had delicate features, but her pale face looked sickly. Amelie recognized her as the girl who had tried to talk to Toby at the party hosted by Alfred. If Amelie guessed correctly, this was the girl that Leo said Toby had always liked and never gave up on.

"Can I help you?" Amelie asked calmly. The girl was visibly nervous, making her seem fragile and vulnerable.

"Uhm." The girl bit her lip as if finding it hard to speak, but continued, "Miss Dillon, have you heard that Mr. Alston canceled his collaboration with Toby?"

"Yeah," Amelie responded nonchalantly.

"Mr. Alston did it because you and Toby announced during Old Mr. Walsh's birthday party that you two are dating. He did it because of you…" The girl blurted out. Her face turned red as she began coughing a little.

"I-I followed you and found out that you are Foxy. Miss Dillon, you're Mr. Alston's ex-wife, so this was a form of warning to Toby because Mr. Alston doesn't want you and Toby to be together," the girl added, showing that she knew quite a lot.

Was Leo dealing with Toby because of me? Amelie couldn't help but recall Leo's previous domineering expression.

"So, you're the one who told me to meet you at the Walsh Building? You planned for me to hear Toby and his father's conversation?" Amelie's expression grew colder.

"Y-Yes, it was me," the girl said, coughing again because of her nervousness. She was so weak it was downright frustrating to watch.

Amelie couldn't explain it, but she felt uneasy looking at the girl. She just couldn't bring herself to like her.

"I'm Serenity Lindon," the girl introduced herself. "I don't have the power to help Toby, so I hope you can help him, Miss Dillon. He can't leave the company; he's too good to be let go."

After saying that, Serenity looked even more pitiful as her eyes turned red. If Amelie were a guy, she would probably hug and comfort her right now. "Please help him," she pleaded, bowing deeply before turning to leave.

Watching her wobbly back as she walked away, Amelie tightened her lips, but she still went to Genesis anyway.

"Hello, do you have an appointment?" the new receptionist at Genesis greeted her with a friendly smile.

Amelie smiled back and was about to speak when someone walked over. "Miss Dillon!"

It was Eugene. Seeing Amelie, Eugene acted like he was facing a formidable enemy and even glared at the receptionist.

The receptionist looked confused, but still recognized Amelie's distinguished status and quickly lowered her head.

"Miss Dillon, are you here to see Mr. Alston?" Eugene asked politely, wiping away his cold sweat. If he hadn't come down in time, Mr. Alston's distinguished guest would have been neglected.

"Please follow me," he gestured without waiting for Amelie's response and quickly pressed the elevator button. Amelie didn't hesitate and followed him into the elevator.

A few seconds later, Eugene led Amelie into Leo's office. Leo was sitting in front of his computer, his face as serious as ever. Not only did his seriousness not affect his appearance but also added a few degrees of coldness.

He was holding a phone in his hand, issuing orders to the other end. When Eugene spoke, his eyes were cold, but when he saw Amelie, warmth came to his eyes, and his gaze softened.

"The meeting is postponed for three hours," he commanded the person on the other end, his lips curling up slightly.

There was a loud bang as the phone hit the ground on the other side. After a moment of silence, a trembling voice spoke up, "T-Three hours?" The executive from the R&D department had never heard of Leo postponing a meeting before. Leo's time was always calculated by the minute and was never wasted. A three-hour delay was unimaginable. Leo didn't say anything else; he just hung up the phone and stood up, giving Eugene a look. Eugene understood and quickly left the room.

"Bring two cups of coffee to the office," he strode over to the secretary's desk and ordered the secretary.
