When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie)

Chapter 343

Chapter 343 Man Begging to be Pitied

It was time to eat.

On the other hand, Amelie ended the stream and stretched before languidly walking down the stairs.

In the dining room, Bria was helping Steven set the table.

"Bria, it's time to eat," he said, cheerfully pulling out a chair for the girl.

However, she did not need his help, as she quickly climbed onto the chair and sat properly.

Then, he loaded her divided plate with some of every side dish he cooked before adding the carbohydrates.

Bria ate so fast and happily that Steven laughed by watching her. His heart was filled with joy to see his little granddaughter be so mature.

"You are much more well-behaved than your mother," he commented, stroking her head while he gave her a tender look.

She was enjoying the warmth of his hand when she suddenly spotted Amelie. "Mama, hurry up. Grandpa made lots of amazing food today."

When Amelie strode over, she found the table laden with various new dishes.

Bria then placed a forkful of food on her plate. "Here, Mama."

"Thank you, and here is some for you." Amelie reciprocated by serving her daughter more food.

She also filled Steven's plate with some food. "Let's eat, Dad."

"Alright." He was joyfully beside himself to see his daughter and granddaughter so well-behaved. Afterward, he gently patted Bria on the head. "Focus on your food now."

Bria gave him a firm nod but did not immediately return to her food. Instead, she turned to her mother and said, "Mama, I want to learn figure skating."

"Figure skating?" Amelie stared at her in astonishment.

Bria nodded several times consecutively while humming in the affirmative.

"Your performance with Mr. Gareth is so pretty. I want to skate too. I want to perform. I also want to be famous like him."


Amelie had thought of making her daughter learn a skill or craft before, but she always thought it could wait since Bria was so young. Now that Bria was asking to learn something, she naturally had no reason to reject the request.

"Okay." Amelie nodded. "Whether or not you can perform like Mr. Gareth is not important. What's important is that you enjoy learning how to skate."

"Yay!" Bria joyfully cheered, pumping her hands high. Meanwhile, there was a flash of a sly fox's cunning glint in her big eyes.

The following day was a weekend. Amelie brought Bria to a large skating rink.

After registering, Bria went with her female instructor for her lesson.

Nonetheless, Amelie had nothing to do but sit and watch since she felt uncomfortable leaving. Thus, she pulled out her phone and started on some simple tasks from work.

"Mama! Mama!"

Before ten minutes were up, someone was tugging at her shirt sleeve. So, she turned around to find Bria curled beside her while wearing her pink skating outfit.

"What is it?" She stroked Bria's head. "Why aren't you with your instructor?"

"I don't want to learn with her." Bria pouted with bulging cheeks. "She doesn't skate as well as you do. I want you to teach me instead, Mommy."

Amelie turned to glance at the instructor. The instructors at the skating rink were only to teach kids who had only started learning how to skate. Naturally, the instructors were only mediocre skaters.

"Mama, teach me." Bria pleaded in a soft and sweet voice as she continued to tug at Amelie's shirt. Combined with the sight of her shimmering eyes, Amelie's heart immediately melted.

Well, she had nothing to do anyway. Hence, Amelie went to the instructor and told her about the request. Nevertheless, the instructor had no objections.

Soon, Amelie was teaching Bria to skate at the rink's edges after buying a new outfit and a pair of new skates.

"Dada!" Bria suddenly called out in the middle of the lesson. She was waving hard at someone.

"What a coincidence," Leo said as he skated over with a man in an instructor's outfit. After exchanging a look with his daughter, he then turned to Amelie.

"Are you skating as well, Dada?" Bria exclaimed in faux surprise at seeing his outfit.

He was currently dressed in workout clothes instead of his usual suit. The beige outfit was tightly wrapped around his tall body, making his skin appear fair and smooth. He did not look as cold as usual, yet he was still a striking sight.

"Dada's handsome!" Bria swiftly gave him a thumbs-up.

She then hurriedly nudged Amelie. "Mama's pretty as well."

Then, Leo turned to look at Amelie's outfit when he heard that.

She wore a white exercise outfit, making her tiny face look so beautiful and fair. There was no makeup on her face, and her hair was tied up in a high ponytail. She looked so much younger than her actual age, like a young girl who had finished puberty.

While Amelie's outfit was not cinched, her curves were still visible. Leo's throat tightened when he saw that, and his eyes darkened.

"Ah, so you're family," the instructor exclaimed as he watched the trio interact. "In that case, I'll leave you to catch up." He then walked away.

Bria stealthily winked at Leo before saying, "You're here just in time, Dada. Mama's teaching me how to skate. You can ask her to teach you as well."

"It is already against the rules for me to teach you how to skate here, Bria. I can't teach anyone else." Amelie knew what her daughter was scheming. "Mr. Alston should find a qualified instructor to teach him."

She then pulled Bria away. "Let's go."

Upon realizing her plan had failed, Bria sadly blinked at her father before following Amelie.

Later, Amelie led Bria around the rink a few more laps.

She thought Leo would either leave the rink or go to the instructor. However, when they skated back to their original spot, he was alone, leaning against the railing for support. It was evident that he had never skated before. Even with the help of the support railing, he was still highly unbalanced.

Suddenly, Leo let go of the support railing and tried to skate forward.
