My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo) novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193

Someone’s calling. It’s Julia!

Amelie glanced in that direction only to see Julia tottering over in a rush with her twisted arm.

“No! No! Stop it! B-Bria is at the other end!” Tears wet her paled face as she shook her head vigorously. She was on the brink of losing her mind.

Everyone’s expression changed at that instant. Julia’s reaction made Amelie’s heart sink to the pit of her stomach. “What happened? Where’s Bria?”

“Why did you let the kid in? Can’t you keep an eye on a kid?” Someone from the crows reproached.

Frantic and remorse filled Julia to the brim as she bit her lower lip. “I… People were jostling around and she ran in. I-I’m terribly sorry!”

She then sprinted in another direction with wobbly legs, shouting Bria’s name again and again. Meanwhile, Amelie broke into a cold sweat. It was as if someone had taken away a part of her; the hollow was painful.

“What happened?” asked Leo, who was undoing the safety gears.

Samuel approached him with a somber face. Instead of words, he merely shot a look at Leo.

Leo took the hint as he whispered to Amelie, “I’ll take a look.”

When the men were about to leave, Amelie suddenly piped up determinedly, “Samuel, just spill it.”

He hesitated, but she added in a quivering voice, “Bria is my daughter. I have the right to know what happened.”

Nothing hurt her more than knowing Bria was in danger.

Despite the reluctance, Samuel recounted seriously, “Julia’s arm is dislocated because of the jostling crowd, and Bria seized the chance to look for you…”

His expression darkened at that point. “When they lifted the pillar, it shifted and fell onto her. ”

“It fell on her?!” Amelie recalled Bria’s scream. Was that because of the fallen pillar?

The sudden plight spurred vehement emotions in her veins; her lungs shrank and squeezed out a cough of blood.

Uff!

“Elie!” he shrieked.

Leo’s brows knitted tightly. The second Amelie coughed up blood, his heart squeezed and even his body shuddered. He reached out in an attempt to support her, but he could not touch her because she was stuck!

“I’ll check on the situation.” As Bria’s father, no one was in more pain than Leo to hear her getting hurt.

“I’ll be back.” He glanced at Amelie while rising to his feet before leaving.

On the other side, there was a throng of people surrounding with the same grim expression. Julia was not in the state of mind to treat her dislocated arm. She was kneeling and wailing Bria’s name.

The crowd made way for Leo upon noticing his arrival. His gaze first landed upon Bria’s figure, which was laying underneath a huge pillar in a pool of fragments.
