My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Chapter 350 Being Followed

As Melissa sipped her wine, she saw Leo walking in. He had a frown on and was holding his phone, talking to someone on the other end.

"Leo?" Melissa couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

She was about to ask him why he wasn't spending more time with Michelle when she heard his voice.

"Did Elie tell you herself? She's right. I'll take care of it. Yeah, I won't give up."

Shatter! Hearing these words, Melissa felt her nerves go numb. The wine glass slipped from her fingers and fell to the floor, shattering. The liquid, which was more valuable than gold, spilled all over the table as the glass broke into pieces. Melissa had no mood to lament the wine's loss as she stood up and rushed toward Leo.

"Leo, what do you mean? Who won't you give up on?"

Leo frowned and looked at Melissa before ending the call.

"Didn't you go on a blind date with Michelle?" Melissa was too anxious and forgot her fear of Leo as she asked in a hurry.

The furrow in Leo's brows deepened.

"Stop arranging these meaningless blind dates in the future!"

When he spoke, his voice was low and his tone was icy and stiff. Melissa stared at him in a daze and she could feel the chill emanating from him.

"Michelle is such a perfect girl. Also, she's the most suitable one for you. Leo, think it over carefully. Amelie is just an ordinary internet celebrity. Anyone who doesn't like her could easily get rid of her. The Walsh Family, on the other hand, is different. They are deeply rooted in this city, and they will never fall. A girl from that family is more suitable for you."

Melissa's dream of becoming part of the top wealthy family in the country was gone just like that, and she couldn't bear it. She didn't have the mood to care about Leo's attitude and tried to persuade him.

Leo rubbed his forehead. He had long been disgusted with Melissa's greed. He realized that he had been too hasty in pursuing Amelie after hearing Josiah's words. After all, he hadn't even settled things with his family, so how could he have the right to win her over?

"Don't worry. I won't remarry Elie until you truly accept her, but don't arrange any more blind dates for me. I'll only marry her in this life," Leo said firmly.

Melissa felt hopeful when she heard the first half of Leo's sentence. However, as she continued to listen, her face turned pale and her mind buzzed frantically. It's over!

"W-What if she marries someone else?" she stuttered.

Leo didn't say anything, but Melissa could clearly see the determination on his handsome face. For the first time, she understood her son's thoughts. He was telling her straightforwardly that he would end up alone and unmarried. Melissa suddenly felt weak and fell to the ground with trembling legs.

…

"Julia, someone has been following me for the past few days. Can you help me find out who it is?" Amelie was driving on the main road. She turned on the Bluetooth on her phone to call Julia while constantly checking the rearview mirror.

Two days ago, she noticed that she was being followed no matter where she went. Even though the other party kept changing cars, she could still see through their disguise. Although it was easy for her to shake off the other party, she decided to first find out the identity of the person following her to ensure the safety of Bria and her father, Steven.

"Sure thing!" Julia became excited as soon as she heard that Amelie was being followed. "Send me your location!"

Amelie quickly shared with Julia her location, allowing Julia to know her whereabouts at all times. Then, she drove toward Clouson City. As soon as she got off the highway, a motorbike raced toward her at lightning speed. The motorbike was large and powerful with a cool-looking black body. The rider was wearing a racing suit of the same color, showing off her perfect curves as she executed a drift in front of Amelie's car before sliding past it.

Amelie recognized that it was Julia and pointed behind them. Julia nodded and immediately chased after the car that had been following Amelie. Then, Amelie took the opportunity to speed away. The car following her also tried to accelerate, but Julia's motorbike suddenly turned sideways and forced the car to change lanes. The motorbike seemed to be magnetic, following the car as it swerved. The other party had no choice but to slam on the brakes.

Inside the car, Jodie looked at the motorbike blocking her way and was so angry that she slammed the steering wheel. "Damn it, son of a b*tch!"

The motorbike rider honked the horn loudly, seemingly mocking her. Jodie glared at the rider, wanting to poke two holes in the helmet. She had spread the video of Amelie and Blake skating together on social media and had been waiting for Amelie to get her comeuppance. But after waiting for so many days, there was no response from Starlight Media. Feeling frustrated and defeated, Jodie believed that Amelie had said something to the boss of Starlight Media to deceive him. After a few angry outbursts, she decided to find the boss of Starlight Media.

With her status as Amelie's former sister-in-law, she thought that the boss of Starlight Media would definitely believe her. Amelie was going to pay for meddling with Blake, that much was certain. Jodie had even spent a considerable amount of money trying to track down the boss of Starlight Media, but it had all been for naught.

Due to that, she decided to stalk Amelie. She had never worked so hard in her life. As soon as Amelie moved, she would follow, and she would change different cars to avoid being discovered once she got home. She was afraid of missing Amelie's whereabouts and didn't even dare to sleep properly. She had visible dark circles under her eyes as she didn't have time to put on makeup. In fact, she looked like a complete zombie.

Jodie never imagined that after all her effort, she would be thwarted by this motorbike. If she didn't know that Leo wouldn't bail her out if she got into trouble, she probably would have hit the motorbike with her car already. The motorbike was intentionally antagonizing her, swaying back and forth in front of her car while honking its horn. In addition to that, the motorbike was spewing exhaust toward her from time to time. Jodie felt her anger rising and her hair standing on end. She lost control and, regardless of the consequences, she stepped on the gas pedal and tried to crash into the motorbike.

However, the motorbike suddenly seemed to sense her presence and took off like a rocket just as Jodie's car closed in on its tail, leaving Jodie with nothing to collide with.

"You son of a b*tch!"

At that moment, Jodie started spewing profanities as she felt her heart and lungs exploding with rage. Then, she gripped the steering wheel and chased after the motorbike. As she sped on, the motorbike entered an alley. Jodie was so angry that she didn't even bother to assess the width of the alley and followed it in.
