My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Chapter 181

Amelie almost fainted from the foul smell coming from Fernando’s mouth. In that instant, she urgently

dodged to the side while quickly pondering upon how she could break free from his clutches. She

began to accumulate strength in her hands.

However, before she was able to swing her fist at him, she heard an agonized scream, saw Fernando

being thrown out from the side, and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Amelie was utterly dumbstruck by this turn of events. She glanced down at her fist and wondered if it

gathered strength and hit Fernando with the aura just like those superhumans in Marvel movies. Then,

just as she was lost in her thoughts, she heard him yelling in pain again.

She instinctively looked up and saw a figure standing in front of Fernando, kicking him brutally. The

kicks got stronger every time they landed on Fernando’s body till he cried pathetically as he pleaded for

mercy.

She had to squint her eyes due to the dim lighting and scrutinize the face of the man who was kicking

Fernando. And she could not help but gasp when she saw his face. The man who was kicking

Fernando was none other than Leo.

Leo was ruthless, his attacks on Fernando seemed endless, and it didn’t look like he was stopping any

time soon. His lips were tightly pressed together like a sharp blade, his eyes emanated immense

coldness as if he was the devil, and his face was tense. Finally, Fernando got so beaten up that he no

longer had any strength to fight back.

This was the first time she had seen Leo so bloodthirsty and merciless. Of course, she had known him

for a long time but did not know that he could fight that well. Leo did not stop kicking Fernando until his

nose and face were broken and swollen.

Leo then ordered the bodyguards, who came over after hearing the commotion, to drag Fernando

away. It wasn’t until he and the bodyguards faded out of sight that Amelie regained her senses. She felt

the need to thank Leo. After all, he helped her escape the situation, even though she knew martial arts

and did not need Leo’s help.

“Thank—”

She was just about to thank him when Leo scoffed sarcastically and cut her off, “So, the so-called you-

can-support-Bria-yourself is actually via this way?”

“What?” Her heart dropped when she heard him say that, and she looked at him, puzzled. Yet, he

remained distant and emanated a cold aura around him. His words were even more piercing and

heartless than before.

He then continued, “I don’t care how you want to mess with your life, but my daughter will not live in

this environment. So, you should get rid of this dirty lifestyle if you really want to live with her.

Otherwise, I will take her away from you!” Finally, he left the scene without a moment of hesitation.

Amelie was still in shock at Leo’s sharp words. She could not comprehend what he was on about, but

somehow the puzzlement in her eyes turned into astonishment seconds later. She finally realized that

he was mocking her for using her body to make money, and this realization made her enraged. And the

angrier she got, the calmer she became.

She stood upright and looked directly at Leo’s back indifferently. “So, do you really think that I have no

other way to support myself other than engaging in prostitution?”

Her words managed to make Leo pause for a moment. But instead of replying, he merely continued

striding forward. Her heart sank, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles creaked in

protest as she stared at his back, which was moving further and further away.

She sneered coldly.

Leo initially planned to get some fresh air and did not expect that he would encounter such an incident.

So, his mood got even worse when he returned to the room. He did not say a word as he sat on the

couch, looking extremely exhausted. He thought of how Amelie fell into the arms of the man, looking all

fragile, and the look on the man’s face, who wanted to devour her.

How could she be willing to be with the stinky man? He silently balled his fists as Ashton’s analysis and

what he just witnessed merged together.

Ashton and Toby were also alarmed by the commotion just now and left the room to see what was

going on. They just walked back to the room one after the other and saw Leo sitting on the couch, deep

in his thoughts. The two looked at him with different expressions.

Ashton kicked the couch, and his face showed obvious disdain. “Leony, why are you being polite to this

kind of woman? Just find some evidence against her and snatch Bria away from her. I can do it on your

behalf if you don’t feel like slogging through that. I guarantee that I’ll be able to find evidence that she is

engaging in prostitution within three days. And trust me, she won’t be able to deny it!”

Ashton’s view was simple. He thought that Amelie was the one who caused trouble for Leo and Elyse.

And Leo’s shattered relationship could only be saved by bringing Bria back home.

On the other hand, Toby did not join Ashton’s ramble. Instead, he remained silent and leaned against

the door’s frame in his half-sleeved casual suit. He seemed to know something the others did not.

From his standing position, he was able to glance at what was happening inside and outside the room.

However, his eyes never left the slender figure on the opposite side, and as such, he did not miss out

on Amelie’s expressions.

So, when he heard Ashton slandering Amelie, he finally said, “Leony, you’d better think before you act.

Otherwise, you will regret it.”

Leo opened his eyes the moment he heard these words and looked Toby straight in the eyes. “What do

you know?”

Unfortunately, Toby merely stared back at him silently. He did not want to admit it, but still, he had to

express his admiration for Leo for being so perceptive, even at a time like this.

Toby instinctively glanced away from the cold man before him. His thumb silently touched his other

fingers as if he was pondering upon something. There were indeed some things that he had long

regarded as a little secret between him and Amelie. He did not want to share it with others.

Nevertheless, he felt so distressed when he saw her being humiliated like that.

After what seemed to be a decade, Toby took a deep breath and glanced down at his phone.

Leo could not help but feel disappointed upon seeing that. He was waiting for a response from Toby,

but who knew that Toby would cease to respond to him and instead look at the phone?

Ashton was also puzzled at Toby’s reaction, so he commented, “It’s irritating that you don’t say things in

full.” But Toby was not the slightest angry. He dismissed Ashton, walked to Leo’s side, put the phone on

the table in front of Leo, and pressed Leo’s shoulder meaningfully. “Take a good look at it.”

After that, he put his hands in his pockets and left.

Ashton was totally confused by Toby’s actions. “What’s he up to?”

He leaned over and saw what was playing on the phone. “Isn’t this Foxy? What’s the big fuss with her?

I am getting more and more confused now.”

Leo glanced down and saw Foxy’s paused video on the screen. It was her live broadcast room. The

person in the video wore a snow-white fox mask, only revealing a pair of beautiful eyes.

He tapped the screen mechanically, and they could hear Foxy’s infectious voice as the video

continued.

But Ashton was not having it. He even teased Leo when he saw Leo avidly watching the video, “Do you

really think that Toby is trying to tell you something with this video? All the twists and turns! You’re

making me tired!”

Yet, he saw Leo frantically picking up the phone, and his eyes were fixated on it all of a sudden. Ashton

was taken aback by his sudden change of demeanor and instantly snapped his jaws shut. However,

Leo seemed to be possessed, and he kept looping the video, which was only less than ten seconds

until he had listened to it no less than ten times! The more he listened to it, the more his facial muscles

tensed, and his expression became weirder.
