A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 His Bottom Line

Only then did Toby sneer, “Come to your senses.

Don’t think you are very shrewd! It’s easy for things to backfire on you.”

After speaking, he pressed the corners of his lips, looking like he did not really mean anything.

In this room, only a fool like Ashton would think that Elyse was just helping Amelie.

Elyse wanted Leo to take away the child completely and separate the family!

Shameless, but also sinister!

Amelie took Bria all the way to the car and didn’t say a word to Bria until they got in the car.

Bria usually cared about Amelie’s attitude toward her the most, so at this moment, seeing Amelie pursing her lips, Bria could not help but tug at the corner of Amelie’s clothes.

“Mommy, I was wrong.”

“Tell me.

What did you do wrong?” Amelie’s tone was not serious, but her expression was.

Bria bowed her head.

“I shouldn’t have dropped their antiques.”

Saying this, she bit her lip and blinked her eyes guiltily.

There was already a slight dampness on her eyelashes.

Seeing her like this, Amelie’s heart ached slightly and she took Bria into her arms.

“Your true fault is not protecting yourself.”

Bria raised her head in confusion and looked at her with big, innocent eyes.

Amelie further prompted, “When you dropped an antique vase, did you think about your own safety? What can you do if you are injured by a broken vase? If the vase is broken, we can buy it again, but if you are hurt, there will be a scar forever.

Remember to protect yourself as much as possible; no matter what the situation is.”

“Got it.”

Knowing that her mother was angry because her mother was worried about her, Bria felt warm all of a sudden.

Seeing that Bria had a good attitude toward admitting her mistake, Amelie patted her little head lovingly.

“This time, I blame myself because I didn’t protect you well.”

“Mommy, you don’t need to blame yourself.

You’re already good to me.”

Bria was satisfied with Amelie.

“However, I really don’t like living with Grandma.

Aunt Jodie is so fierce and Grandma is so cold.”

As soon as the Alston Family was mentioned, Bria couldn’t help but shiver.

Seeing Bria’s fearful look, Amelie thought of what she saw in the live broadcast room.

Jodie did not look like she was Bria’s aunt at all.

Her behavior was like she was dealing with an enemy.

“Don’t worry, Bria, I won’t let you go through this kind of thing again in the future,” Amelie promised Bria while patting her head.

Bria hadn’t slept well at Alston Residence, but now that she returned to Amelie’s side, she suddenly relaxed.

It didn’t take long for her eyelids to droop.

In an instant, she fell asleep.

Looking at the exhausted girl in her arms, Amelie hugged her tight in distress.

Halfway through, Julia and Jamie called and asked about Bria’s situation.

Even Blake sent a message.

They all saw Bria shouting for help in the live broadcast room.

“It’s okay, Bria has come out of the house.

She’s in the car with me right now,” Amelie said.

“The Alston Family is so inhuman!” Julia was the most hot-headed one of them all, and among the three, she had the angriest reaction.

“How could they treat Bria like this? I felt distressed watching the live broadcast, let alone… Amy, these scumbags must not be let go! Since they dare to hurt Bria, let’s let them taste the pain too!”

Amelie rubbed her aching brows.

“Right now, I just want to fight for Bria’s custody.

Although Bria has been hurt by this incident, it also makes Melissa willing to give up custody of the child.

For the time being, forget it.”

It was not that Amelie didn’t feel sorry for Bria.

However, most of the time, one had to sacrifice something for the benefit of another.

Even if this was hard for her to swallow, she could only choose the solution that was most beneficial to Bria’s future.

Hearing that Melissa had signed an agreement to give up custody, Jamie was not as angry as before.

“Amy, you did the right thing.

We can’t have Bria suffer more just because we’re upset.
