My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo) novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119

“Aah! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Jodie cried.

She clung on tight to Amelie’s arm. Her entire body was trembling in fear while apologies kept streaming out of her mouth.

It was only then that Amelie withdrew her arm and flung her on the area protected by the railing. “Bria is where I draw the line. If you ever dare use her to cause trouble again, you will end up at the bottom of a cliff or a car wheel next time.”

She then walked away, not once looking at Jodie.

As for Jodie, she had been terrified to the core. Her body was shaking non-stop as she hugged herself. When Amelie finally walked out of her sight, she let out a loud wail.

One hour later, Jodie ran into Carla’s home and dragged her out of her bedroom by the hair.

“Damn you! How dare you scheme with Amelie against me! Do you want to die?” Jodie screeched.

She gnashed her teeth. Her face was thoroughly twisted like a crazy woman’s

Unable to move away, Carla’s only option was to cover her head with her hands as she pleaded as hard as she could. “I didn’t do it. I really didn’t. I don’t have her contact details. How could I have schemed with her? Anyway, even if she asks me to do it, I’m not brave enough to go against you.”

Hearing that, Jodie loosened her grip. Still, her face was twisted in anger. “How did she know I was looking for the wife of Starlight Media’s boss? Where did you get the phone number you gave me?”

Carla had long since grown terrified of Jodie’s cruelty. Her heart still quivered in fear as she massaged her aching scalp. “I really don’t know why she knows about that. I paid Julia for that number.”

Jodie was beyond herself in anger when she heard that and reacted by harshly slapping Carla on the head. “Did you evolve from a pig? Amelie and Julia are on the same side. Why would you bribe her assistant? Did you want to die?”

She then raised her hand to slap Carla once more.

At that sight, Carla shrank back as tears streamed down her cheeks. “You were in such a hurry, and I had no idea what to do at all,” she begged. “I could only take the risk. I didn’t know she would lay a trap for me after being paid. I really didn’t know.”

At that moment, she was too scared to tell Jodie she could not afford to pay off Julia and had given her a blank check instead.

Jodie stamped her foot in anger. She thought about the humiliation she suffered on the mountain, the terror she experienced. Her entire being felt as if it had been set on fire; not one part of her felt okay with that experience.

“Damn that Amelie! She didn’t just swindle me out of my money. She even did that to me!” She gritted her teeth as hatred surged in her.

However, when she recalled what Amelie did and said back then, she could not help but shiver in fear.

That woman was absolutely scary when she went mad.

By now, Jodie had been silent for a long time. Suddenly, she snorted and coldly chuckled. “She doesn’t want me to lay a finger on that little b*stard, so that’s what I’ll do.”

She then turned to Carla. “Do something for me,” she barked out

After descending the mountain, Amelie returned to the city.

School hours were ending soon, so she went to pick up Bria.

When Amelie arrived, the teacher from the day before took the initiative to greet her. “Bria had a great day. today,” she said, trembling. “No one badmouthed her, and she wasn’t hit at all.”

Since the teacher was being polite, the cold look on Amelie’s face faded slightly. “My daughter doesn’t need special treatment. You just have to be fair.”

“Yes, all right.” The teacher hurriedly nodded, a little too embarrassed to look her in the eye.

She was the teacher, yet she handled the entire incident so carelessly just because of a parent’s lies. It was so wrong of her to react this way.

Even so, Amelie did not penalize her for her mistake, making her feel even more guilty about what happened.

After dinner, Julia called Amelie.

“Well? Did you punish Jodie so hard that she will be an honest woman after today?” Julia asked first thing.

Sitting on the couch and playing with the tassels on the couch, Amelie replied, “If she would learn her lesson so easily, she would never have started so much trouble.”

“Are you saying she’s still going up to something?” Julia’s voice rose in pitch. “Darn her and her schemes! Why don’t we attack her before she has the chance to hurt Bria again?”
