My Sugar And Your Spice Chapter 203
Chapter 203
“Did you just say that your grandpa lives in Quinn Town?” Leo instantly grabbed Bria’s arms as he
asked.Bria’s expression shifted as Leo’s sudden change in behavior startled her.Leo realized that he
was being impulsive, so he quickly let go. “Sorry, Bria, I just didn’t expect that your grandpa and your
mommy would be from Quinn Town.”Even though he had bumped into Amelie when he went to Quinn
Town before, he initially thought that she was just following him there.Later on, he thought that she was
going there on vacation.When they got married in the beginning, he was aggrieved, so he didn’t ask
much about Amelie.He knew nothing about her except for the fact that she had a father.Because of this
new revtion, his heart skipped a beat.Bria knew he didn’t mean it, so she stopped being afraid as
she said tentatively, “Mommy grew up there. There’s a huge river with fish in it. Grandpa took me
fishingst time, and we caught a lot of them.”Little children only chose to talk about things they
remembered the most, so they couldn’t give the answers adults were looking for.Nevertheless, Leo
didn’t mind it, and his emotions slowly settled down.All his investigations proved that Ellen was Big
Eyes, the person who donated their cornea to him. What did that have to do with whether Amelie was
from Quinn Town or not?He was overreacting.Soon came the day of the event at Bria’s school.Early in
the morning, Leo made arrangements forpany matters, then hastily got ready to drive so that he
could meet up with Bria and Amelie.He had just walked a few steps when his phone rang. It was a call
from Elyse.Seeing Elyse’s number, Leo felt a sense of disgust rising within his heart, and he decided
not to answer.Elyse only attempted to call him once and never tried again after that.However, when Leo
walked to the entrance of thepany, he saw her seated in a wheelchair, dressed thinly and looking
pitifully at him.Her face and lips were especially pale. She looked weak, sickly, and oh-so-pitiful.When
Leo saw her, his unaffected gaze darkened a little as his handsome face tensed up. “Why are you
here?”His tone was nonchnt.Elyse opened her mouth, but before she could speak, tears fell out of
her eyes and streamed down her face.“Leo, I’m scared.” Her voice was shaky as well. “My phase 2
physical examination report just came out, and the tumor in my brain is getting worse.”As she spoke,
she painstakingly wheeled herself over to him, then pitifully grabbed his leg. “I’m scared that I might just
die. Leo, can’t you apany me?”When Leo heard Elyse’s sobs, the warmth didn’t return to his cold
eyes. Almost without hesitation, he pulled his hand away. “I’ll find you the best doctor.”“You know that I
just want you to be with me.” As if breaking down, Elyse sobbed so hard that her body trembled. She
hugged herself pitifully, acting like an abandoned little bird.Any man would feel pity if they saw her
feeble appearance.The care worker who was pushing the wheelchair couldn’t help but say, “Ever since
Miss yton received the reportst night, she hasn’t slept a wink. She just kept crying, and if this
goes on, her health will get worse.”“It’s your own body. If you don’t take care of it, you’ll be the only one
suffering when things get worse,” Leo said calmly with an indifferent look in his eyes.He lowered his
head and made a call to Eugene. “Find the world’s best brain tumor specialist within 24 hours.”With
that, he lowered his hand. “Go back to the hospital and wait.”Then, he left.Behind him, the care worker
shook her head as she watched him leave. “What a cold-hearted man. Under these circumstances, it’s
only proper to offer at least a few words offort.”Elyse was already pursing her lips tightly.Her body,
which was weak and soft moments before, had now tensed and straightened up.Her fingers gripped
the handle of the wheelchair fiercely as hatred spilled from her eyes.“Miss yton, if you threaten him
with your life, perhaps he would turn back.” The care worker had received too much from Elyse, so she
couldn’t help but provide some ideas. Elyse huffed, the corners of her lips getting even more
twisted.“With my life, you say?” Leo hated her so much now, he probably wished she would just die.If
she died, he would be set free. He would no longer have any obligations to fulfill and repay what Ellen
did for him.She must not die.She would fight Leo to the bitter end!Once back in the ward, Elyse
diverted the care worker away, then made a call to Laura. “Leo seemed to be in a hurry just now.
Where is he going?”“Elyse.” When Laura heard Elyse’s voice, she spoke with some hesitation. “Mr.
Alston doesn’t want me to reveal his whereabouts. I’m sorry.”“Even you are looking down on me now!”
Elyse was so good at acting. In just a split second, her voice turned sad and pitiful. “Laura, we’re the
best of friends! How can you treat me like this?”Laura was speechless.“I don’t have any other
intentions; it’s just too painful to endure. I just want to know when Leo would have time to visit me. Are
you not willing to help me even with a small request like this?”Laura sighed in exasperation.“I’m not
quite sure where they’ve gone. I heard them mentioning a kindergarten when they went out. Elyse, it’s
not that I don’t want to help you; I’m truly powerless.”“Fine, then.” Elyse hung up emotionlessly.Laura
was such a snob.As soon as she realized that Elyse had lost, she stopped taking thetter
seriously.Still, a general direction was better than none.There was only one kindergarten Leo would go
to, which was the one Bria was at.At the thought of Leo meeting Bria and spending time with Amelie,
Elyse was so furious that she gnashed her teeth.She hastily got someone to investigate Bria’s school,
and she soon heard about the event.A cold chuckle escaped her lips.How could she miss such a good
opportunity?Soon, a thought urred to her.Even though Bria only had a fracture in her leg, she wasn’t
allowed to walk before shepletely recovered.Hence, she went to school in her wheelchair.The
school was holding amunity service event, and the children were going to the nursing home to visit
the old folks there. They would help tidy the ce and put on some performances.Because of her
injured leg, Bria couldn’t join the group event. She couldn’t help with either task, so she looked a little
sullen like a withered flower.However, the teachers felt that she was pretty and quite good with words,
so she was tasked with presenting flowers to the old folks.With Amelie’s help, Bria happily brought
back arge bouquet, her small face lighting up like the sun.“Wait for me here, Bria. I’m going to the
bathroom.” Amelie patted Bria’s little head as she spoke.Bria nodded in understanding. “Be careful,
Mommy.”As she watched Amelie leave, the smile on her lips never once faded.“Bria.” A girl wearing a
princess crown and a pretty princess dress ran over to her, her eyes staring right at the bouquet Bria
was holding. “You have a bad leg and can’t walk, so why don’t you let me present the flowers
instead?”“There’s no need for that,” Bria declined without hesitation.Her thought process was simple;
since the teacher had given her the task, she had to aplish it.The little girl was upset now. “The
teacher gave you all the flowers, but I want to present them as well!”It was only then that Bria
understood what the girl meant. She nodded generously, “Since you want to present the flowers, I’ll
give you half so that we can present the flowers together.”She thought that the girl would be happy with
this suggestion, but the girl stomped her feet and cried reluctantly, “I don’t want half of them! In my
house, as long as I want it, Daddy and Mommy will give me the whole thing!”With that, the little girl
red intently at Bria, willing thetter to give her all the flowers.“Come on, give it to me!” Seeing that
Bria wasn’t moving, she moved to grab the flowers.Bria was in a wheelchair, so it wasn’t convenient for
her to move. The flowers were about to be snatched when…N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
