My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 17
Today was the day to sign the contract. Although Jimmy Goldstein was the representative of the collaboration company, he
arrived late at 10.00AM. Not only was he late, but he was also wearing a suspender that held his newborn daughter. “Sorry, I
was feeding my daughter, so I came a few minutes late.” Jimmy apologized to those present. Even though he had an apologetic
look, there was also pride on his face. After he finished speaking, he put an arm around the baby and picked up the contract with
the other hand. Feeling uncomfortable, the child twisted her little body and whimpered. Jimmy immediately put down the contract
and patted the little baby’s back to coax her. Leo, who was sitting across from him, looked at him with obvious disgust on his
face. “The Goldstein Family is huge. Can’t you afford a nanny?” When Jimmy heard Leo’s words, he was not only not ashamed,
but he also looked reproachful. “You have a child too. Can’t you understand my feelings of becoming a father?” His words
startled Leo, who did not respond for a long time. Although he became a father, he did not pay much attention to Bria. At the
beginning, he was too busy with work and had no time. Later, when the child was older, she would hide every time she saw him.
Leo never owed anyone in his life, but he did owe the child. “Well, you and Amelie should not have divorced for the sake of the
child.” After signing the contract, Toby could not help but persuade Leo. “The child is yours. She no longer has a family, so who
else will be kind to her? Aren’t you afraid that she will become pitiful in the future?” “We’re already divorced; what’s the use of
talking about it now?” Leo said sullenly. “Can’t you get back together?” “It’s because she knows they can remarry that Amelie
dared to divorce.” Ashton spoke up on the other side. He slammed his phone against the edge of the chair. “Did you not see
what that Dillon woman posted on social media? She took the initiative to clarify the relationship with Blake, saying that they are
just ordinary friends and that she has been treating him like a younger brother!” Hearing what he said, Toby immediately checked
social media. Sure enough, he saw the clarification posted by Amelie through Blake’s social media. “I can assure you that that
Dillon woman will find a way to attend the Entrepreneur Dinner tomorrow night. There, she will apologize to Leo and take
advantage of the opportunity to propose remarriage.” From Ashton’s point of view, even the scandals with Jamie and Blake were
planned by Amelie in order to agitate Leo and finally remarry Leo. “If she really does this, it’s a good chance.” Toby looked at Leo
meaningfully and squeezed his shoulder tightly. “Although she is a bit scheming, she has always been a good woman during the
marriage.” ... Perhaps because of Ashton’s words, Leo’s best friends came to the Entrepreneur Dinner the next day. In addition
to Toby, Jimmy and Ashton, there were two others who deliberately came back from abroad. Sure enough, Amelie really
appeared at the venue. Today, she looked pure and lovely. Her white dress came down just enough to cover her knees, and her
high heels of the same color complemented her slender and straight legs. As she was slender, she looked willowy and weak like
she would be blown away by the wind. The fine makeup on her gorgeous little face was very light, which made her look delicate
and fragile as if she needed someone to protect her. Ashton raised his chin disdainfully and said, “I guessed it right! Within 30
seconds, she will definitely look for Leo.” When he said this, the corners of his lips were raised in mockery. As for Leo, he kept
drinking with his head down. Although he did not say anything, when he saw Amelie walking toward him, he still gripped the wine

glass. Observant people would notice that Elyse was not with him as usual. When those around him saw Amelie approaching
him, realization dawned on their faces and they waited to watch the show. Leo raised his chin habitually. He wanted to see what
method Amelie would use to repent of her past mistakes! “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” Perhaps because of the
attire she wore today, Amelie sounded a bit grievous and pitiful when she spoke. Leo snorted coldly. “If you don’t sincerely admit
your mistake, you should...” Before he could say the words “go away”, he saw Amelie walk straight past him and went toward
another man! She did not come here for me? “Sorry, I was stuck in traffic.” The man facing Amelie looked mature and
responsible, but he had an easy-going smile on his face. Everyone was speechless. The man who met Amelie was Samuel
Gage. It was none other than Julia’s fiancé. Of course, he was also a good friend of Amelie. The long friendship between the
three of them had long surpassed what was ordinary, and they were as close as family. Hence, when the two talked, there was
some intimacy between them. Amelie was all looking forward to seeing Samuel, so she did not notice Leo when she came over.
The neglected Leo was dumbfounded. “It’s a little noisy here; let’s go elsewhere for a chat,” Samuel said, and the two left
together. Although they did not hold hands, the intimacy between the two was enough to make people wonder about their
relationship. Emotion overcame Leo as he clenched his fists tightly, not even knowing that he had broken the wine glass. Only
when the glass piece pierced his skin and the pain came did he look down. “Hey, you’re injured!” A pair of hands reached out
and held Leo’s hand. “Why are you so careless?”
