My Sugar And Your Spice Chapter 262
Chapter 262
Amelie was rendered speechless. What is going on? I try to save Jodie but end up being used of
attempting to murder her instead.“You must be mistaken, Miss Alston. Miss Foxy wanted to save you.
The moment she bumped into us, she immediately asked me to help you,” Fabian politely said, even
though he was thoroughly shocked by Jodie’s attitude.However, Jodie scoffed and said, “She’s only
acting! I came here with her. If I drown, people will suspect her. That’s why she pretended to look for
help.” She then pointed at the rope on the ground. “You see, Leo? My neck was still tied up with that.
She knocked me out and tried to hang me. She’s evil!”Then, as if to prove she was telling the truth, she
tilted her head to reveal the bruise marks on her neck. Her skin was very fair, and Amelie had struck
her with all her strength to knock her out. Hence, her entire neck was covered in a bruise that was very
shocking to look at.“You now see Foxy’s true face, key?” Jodie even turned to look at ke. “She’s
an evil woman!”The way she was acting made Amelie burst out, chuckling. At first, I thought she must
have misunderstood me, but now I realize it was deliberate. She ns to defame me in the hopes of
turning ke against me.“If that’s what you think, I have nothing to say.” Amelie could not even be
bothered to exin what had happened. Then, she coldly shot Jodie a look before swiftly walking
away. Moreover, she would never debate with a moron unless she was a moron herself.When Jodie
saw her walk away, she assumed Amelie was scared off by the usations. “See,” she proudly
shouted. “Look at her. She’s feeling guilty!”“Why don’t you exin? You’re clearly not that kind of
person,” Fabian asked on the way back, confused.She smiled and asked, “Do you think you can wake
someone pretending to be asleep? Rather than doing something useless, why not look for the key?”He
chuckled andmented, “No wonder you can be an influencer with 100 million fans.” I respect her for
herck of doubt and ability to stay focused on the task, unfazed by distractions.“You’re too kind.”
Amelie did not think highly of her, and Elyse was responsible for arge portion of her fan base.“Oh,
that’s right. There seems to be hostility between you and Miss yton, Miss Foxy.” Fabian could not
resist gossiping.At first, he believed, along with the others, that Foxy had feelings for Elyse.What
happened since then made it clear that Foxy was only here to cause trouble for Elyse.However, AmelieTêxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
merely smirked and did not reply to him.Realizing he was intruding on her privacy, Fabian uneasily
said, “I’m sorry.”As the two walked, she asked him where he and Fiona had been. Naturally, he told her
everything he knew. She soon realized that the pair had never walked near the ravine, nor did they
ever walk to the bottom of the cliff. If they did not go there, then who did?Once Fabian and Fiona
walked away, Amelie returned to the spot before the ravine.The footprint on the ground was clearly left
behind by a hiking boot. Nevertheless, the members of their group arrived wearing their regr
footwear because they had no idea where they were going.So, there was only one possibility that
someone had arrived with that type of shoe.With that thought, Amelie’s eyes brightened.Then, Amelie
waited a few more minutes to make sure Fabian and Fiona were out of earshot, then she made her
way back down the cliff and into the pond. She examined the surrounding area and determined no
additional footprints, indicating that the shoes’ owner had stopped walking there. Hence, the key could
be hidden near the pond. At that thought, she removed her shoes and lifted every stone she saw near
the water. She then noticed someone walking lightly behind her.Startled, Amelie turned around to find a
handsome face framed by a fringe looking back at her. “key?” she gasped. “You’re still here.”“You
haven’t left, so why would I?” ke replied with a smile.Unbeknownst to her, he no longer had a nk
poker face when talking. His eyes were now filled with a doting adoration for her.“You guessed the key
might be here too?” She did not analyze his answer and merely thought he had arrived at the same
conclusion she did.In response, ke’s face stiffened.On the other hand, he didn’t care about the key
because Amelie was the only thing on his mind.Not saying a word, he made his way over and kneeled
in front of her, utterly oblivious to the stream of water. The next thing she knew, he had wrapped a
slender hand around her fair ankle. “No matter how urgent the key is, you can’t ignore your leg.”Amelie
looked down at her leg to realize there were gashes on her leg. While the wounds were not deep, there
were so many of them that it looked horrifying. Since she was in such a rush when she saw Jodie fall
off the cliff, that’s probably when she hurt herself. Even though her leg was injured, she was still
preupied with finding the key. However, she did not expect ke to spot such a hidden injury. What
an attentive guy he is!When he grabbed her ankle, she staggered to the boulder behind her to sit down.
Then, he ced her foot on his knee when a bunch of herbs suddenly appeared in his other hand. She
did not know what kind of herb they were. Later, she observed as he meticulously scraped away the
herbs’ thin outer membrane before applying them to her wounds as if they were bandages.While doing
so, he gently blew on the herbs. “My grandmother would always use this herb to treat my wounds when
I was hurt. I can personally attest to the fact that they work,” he exined gently and warmly.ke
rarely talked about his personal life, so all Amelie knew about him was that he was an orphan.
Nheless, she did not know that he used to live with his grandmother.His eyes were so soft and
peaceful when he mentioned his grandmother. There was a faint smile on his lips.Evidently, those days
were highly memorable to him.On the other hand, she grew up with her father. Thus, it was inevitable
that his words reminded her of her days with her father. She could not help but lose herself in her
memories.Suddenly, Amelie heard a cold voice clearing their throat.Snapping out of her thoughts, she
turned at the same time ke did to find Leo walking over to them with a stern look.The water was still
dripping from his dark hair and his clothes. There was a murderous gaze on his stern face. Is it
because he believes Jodie’s statement? Is he here to question me without first changing? With that
thought, she kept her eyes trained on him.Leo was looking at them as well. However, his gaze was
focused on the barefoot being held by ke instead of her face.She sensed his gaze slowly
sharpening like an invisible de; it was nowhere to be seen but extremely dangerous. Then, she
uneasily pulled her foot out of ke’s grip before standing up.“If you are here about what happened to
your sister, I can only say that I am not an idiot who thinks nothing of 100 million fans.” I have nothing
further to say. Amelie had expressed her thoughts, and it was not up to her whether or not Leo believed
her.When she said that, he swiftly walked over to her.Suddenly, her pupils shrank. What is he going to
do? Is he going to hit me?Before she could give another moment’s thought to the situation, he was
already standing before her.
