My Sugar and Your Spice Chapter 215

Amelie placed the checks on the agreement and handed them back to Melissa. Then, mimicking her, she said, “Name your price. Sign the papers, take the money, and leave, lady.” She pointed at the line of signature.

“Why you little…” Melissa didn’t expect that. I gave her six hundred grand, and now she’s asking me to name my price? Is she insulting me, the lady of the Alston Family? I will not stand for this insult! Driven by fury, Melissa’s face contorted like something straight out of a horror movie. In the end, she flew into a rage. “Insolence!”

Amelie shot her an icy look filled with mockery and disdain. What? Don’t come into the kitchen if you can’t take the heat, lady.

Amelie’s nonchalant attitude angered Melissa even further. She pressed down on her chest and was going to reach for her Heparin. Then she held the empty checks, waving them. “You don’t get to talk like that to me. You’re nothing without Starlight. Without the help of men!”

“Really? Then write down any amount you want then. Let’s see if I’m nothing,” Amelie answered coolly.

Melissa wouldn’t do that. If she did, then that would be akin to asking money from Amelie. Even if Amelie didn’t have enough money to pay, Melissa’s image would still be ruined.

“Or I can give you cash.” Amelie crossed her arms. Do whatever you like. You don’t respect me, then I don’t respect you.

“Even if you do have money, they belong to the men behind you. It’s either Starlight’s boss or Leo!” said Melissa adamantly. She desperately needed to save what remained of her dignity. “I know you’ve been hounding Leo lately. You still like him. You still want to come back to us. Well, let me tell you something. Dream on.”

Amelie chuckled. She thinks her family means anything to me. “Mrs. Alston, I have never spent a single cent your son made, nor have I ever tried to hound him. And I do not like him either. He’s my ex. No matter how bad my life might get, I will never take back the trash I’ve thrown away. You’re a public figure. You should know better than to get into pointless arguments.”

“You think I’d believe that?” Adamant on exiling Amelie, Melissa went straight for threats. “You’re giving us Bria, and you’re going to be exiled. Forever. If you don’t listen to me, you’re going to have to face the Alstons next! And you are nothing in front of us!”

Melissa was going to leave, but then she crashed into someone. Ow! She held her nose, and in her frustration, she wanted to yell at the person in front of her.

But the woman grabbed her by the collar. “You again, Richards? Elie might be kind enough to let you go, but me? I am not.”

The woman was none other than Julia. She was in a tight-fitting dress and a pair of stilettos. Despite her outfit, she wasn’t afraid of getting into a tussle with Melissa. Melissa was wearing a pair of heels as well, but she couldn’t move as well as Julia could. Her clothes were a mess, her hair was unkempt. Julia raised her fist, waving it in front of Melissa. Melissa was scared and angry, but she couldn’t break free of Julia’s grasp. And the buttons on her clothes were torn, and her heels slipped off. She looked worse for wear.

Julia would have punched Melissa in the face had Amelie not stopped her.

With Amelie’s help, Melissa finally broke free of Julia’s grasp and staggered off into the distance.

Julia was about to hit Melissa, but Amelie held her back. “Calm down, Jules.”
