Chapter 205

Amelie couldn’t help but stop and stare for a moment. She froze when she saw the person who was

grabbing her wrist.

“Are you okay, Mommy?” Bria, who was in Leo’s arms, tugged on Amelie’s sleeve while questioning

Amelie in a worried tone. Amelie snapped back into reality before she gazed awkwardly at Leo’s hand

that was wrapped around her wrist. His fingers were slender, and he had a large palm, so his grip felt

especially firm and solid.

“I’m fine.” In a panic, Amelie shook her head before she pulled her hand away. “Thanks.” She

pretended to fix her hair as she tried to conceal the embarrassment that she felt. She rarely had any

physical encounters with males in the past.

Leo lowered his gaze to look at the lost and bashful woman before his eyes. She seemed especially

petite and dainty as she hung her head low and looked around frantically. She looked extremely

nervous. Leo knitted his brows together as he curled his hand into a fist. The sensation of the woman’s

skin against his lingered for a while after that. She has such a slim wrist. Doesn’t she eat at all? Why is

her wrist so small? I felt like I was grabbing bones when I held her earlier.

“What’s this, Mommy?” Bria’s sharp eyes landed on the bag that was in Amelie’s hands. Amelie

emptied the bag to reveal three hats of the same color. Earlier, the teacher informed Amelie to go over

and collect the hats. That was why she took a long time to head to the washroom.

“Is this for us?” Bria’s eyes widened with excitement. There were three caps—one for each of them!

Bria was amazed as this was the first time that she owned a cap that had the exact same pattern as

both her parents. “Hurry up and put it on for me, Mommy!” Bria urged.

Amelie beamed when she saw how excited Bria was. Amelie’s soft and silky hair fell loosely on her

shoulders, and a few strands of her hair covered her face. Her skin seemed especially fair when placed

in contrast with her dark hair. The smile on her face seemed to blossom like a flower in spring, and Leo

was attracted by how fresh and gorgeous she looked. He couldn’t help but stare at her as she smiled

and placed the yellow cap on Bria’s head.

Bria grinned, revealing her pearly whites. “Daddy needs one too!” The young girl was overjoyed.

Amelie handed a cap to Leo, but Leo didn’t respond as he was still mesmerized by the sight of the

woman. Bria quickly held her hand up. “I have an idea! Mommy can put the cap on for Daddy, and

Daddy can put it on for Mommy!”

Only then did Leo return to his senses. He stared at Amelie for a while, but he didn’t take the cap from

her. Instead, he seemed to be going along with Bria’s words and wanted Amelie to put the cap on for

him. He even lowered his head a little before leaning closer to Amelie. Amelie was speechless for a

moment. In the end, she had no choice but to put it on for him.

Even though Leo had already lowered his head, she was still much shorter in comparison to the six-

foot-one man as she was only five-foot-five in height. Amelie had to get on her tiptoes and stretch just

to put the cap on him. Right then, she lost her balance and fell forward. She ended up falling into his

arms.

Leo was holding Bria in one arm, and he was worried that Amelie would bump into Bria, so he reached

his hand out to steady her. As he did so, his hand brushed past her chest area, and he could feel her

soft breasts against his fingers. He ended up holding onto her arm, which felt nearly as slim as her

wrist.

Leo’s gaze darkened when he next looked at the woman. On the other hand, Amelie was furious at

herself for her clumsiness. She bit her lower lip as she cursed at herself. What’s wrong with me? I’m

usually calm and grounded.

After putting Leo’s cap on for him, Bria offered to put Amelie’s cap on for her. Once that was done, Bria

gazed at both her parents before she felt for the cap on her head. She then flashed them her biggest

grin. Even though they all had the same cap on their heads, Bria’s cap stood out the most.

Bria was adorable and pretty; her father was handsome and stunning, and her mother was youthful and

gorgeous. Despite having given birth to a child, Amelie still had a young and energetic aura that made

her seem like she was still a university student. The public gave them envious gazes whenever they

walked around as a family. Everyone was attracted by the family’s good looks. A few of the parents

who enjoyed photography even pointed their cameras toward the three of them before taking multiple

pictures.

Everyone took a bus over to the nursing home. Amelie allowed Bria to take the middle seat between

herself and Leo so that Amelie could draw some boundaries with the man. Amelie heaved a sigh of

relief after that. Even though Leo was there to participate in Bria’s school event, Amelie believed that

they should maintain some distance since they were divorced. She also considered how Leo was

engaged to another woman.

Meanwhile, Leo sat on Bria’s other side while he casually glanced in Amelie’s direction. He didn’t say

much during the ride, but he frowned a little as he gazed at the woman. “Hey, Bria’s Mommy and

Daddy, I was wondering if you guys could squeeze a little. There’s a parent here who doesn’t have a

seat.” The teacher walked over and spoke to them in an apologetic tone.

“This child’s grandfather decided to join the event at the very last minute, and we didn’t save a seat for

him. He traveled all the way here, so…” The teacher seemed extremely conflicted and troubled. Amelie

looked around and saw that all the other parents took up two seats in total as they had their child in one

of their laps.

Amelie and Leo, on the other hand, chose the last row of the bus. Amelie wanted this spot as she didn’t

want to get too close to Leo, but now… The teacher had just finished her sentence when Bria voiced

out. “Hurry up, Dad!” Leo froze for a moment before he lifted Bria onto his lap and took her seat.

Amelie was speechless. She could smell the fresh scent of the man’s cologne the moment he moved

closer to her. His scent didn’t seem to fit his demanding personality—he smelled much lighter and

gentler than the way he acted. Amelie couldn’t help but recall the old times when they would sit next to

each other as teens. Back then, Leo smelled of medication most of the time, but she would still find his

scent more attractive than anyone else’s.

Amelie could still recall how she would read to him while inhaling his scent and how she would

eventually fall asleep and rest on his shoulder. The most intimate memories they shared also felt like

the most ironic ones to recall right then. The man who was once the closest to me is now this stranger

who has an odd relationship with me… Amelie took a deep breath as she tried to stop thinking about

the past.

Coincidentally, the parents who had been snapping photos earlier offered to send her some pictures

right there and then. Amelie lowered her head to scroll through the pictures on her phone. Their family

of three looked stunning and natural in all the pictures. Leo was a man who rarely smiled, but he wore

a faint smile on his face in one of the pictures. His gaze seemed gentle and loving as he looked at

Amelie.

Amelie stiffened for a moment. She felt like she had forgotten how to breathe when she saw the way

the man looked at her. However, she quickly concluded that it had to be some issue with the angle at

which the photo was taken. She shook off her thoughts before refocusing on Bria.

At that very moment, Leo’s gaze happened to land on Amelie’s phone, and he saw the pictures she

had received. The family of three seemed especially happy in the pictures. “You guys look great in

pictures, especially when all three of you are in them. You guys have such a stunning aura!” The parent

who had taken pictures of them didn’t hesitate to shower them with compliments. “This is the best

photo I’ve ever taken.”

Amelie smiled at the parents. Leo thought that Amelie would save the pictures on her phone, but to his

surprise, she started deleting some pictures. She deleted all the pictures with Leo inside, keeping only

a few shots of herself and Bria. She had seen how Elyse lost her mind back then, and she didn’t want

the photos to cause her similar issues.

Therefore, Amelie scrolled through some pictures before deleting them. Leo’s expression darkened

when he saw what she was doing. Veins surfaced on his arms as he clenched his fist. He felt as if

someone had stabbed him in the chest whenever she deleted one of his pictures. He watched as

Amelie got to the last picture. She was about to tap on the button to delete it…
