My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo) novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44

At the Royal Hotel was a man in white with a small suitcase. The hair behind his head was tied up, and his fringe was parted

As the wind blew, his hair danced beautifully along with it.

At this moment, his head was lowered, seemingly pondering on something.

“Mr. Walsh!” A clear female voice resounded from afar, forcing him to snap out of his thoughts. He raised his head and saw a girl on the opposite side.

She had a fitted light-colored t-shirt on with white cropped pants. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, which was swaying in the air, making her look dazzling.

Toby seemed to be enthralled by her. Only after a while did he reply, “Miss Dillon? Why are you here?*

Amelie walked over to him and showed him the paper in her hand.

After he squinted his eyes to look and saw the paper in her hand, he seemed to understand what she came for.

Since she ran all the way here, she was panting a little. I’ll help you convince Skaynia’s Owen,” she proclaimed.

At this moment, Toby’s calm brows suddenly rose, and he looked at her in surprise. He didn’t know that she would suddenly agree to this. “Really?”

She smiled and explained, “You think so highly of my father’s traditional shoe-making technique. How can I not provide you with a little help? She pointed at the contract in her hand

The quoted price in the contract was 30 million! A shoemaking technique worth 30 million was an extremely high price.

Even if Steven’s traditional technique was really precious, with Toby’s method, it would not be a surprise if he reduced it to a million or even hundreds of thousands.

“But please amend the contract,” she continued. “300 thousand will be enough.”

Hearing that, Toby looked at her in confusion. “Is 30 million not a good price?”

“30 million is good, but it will scare my father.” Steven was just thinking about passing down his skills, so he didn’t look at the price; otherwise, he would definitely be so shocked that he would cause some trouble.

In fact, Amelie knew very well the real reason Toby quoted this 30 million; he was paying her in advance for her to convince Owen.

“Although Owen has some connections with me, I’m not sure whether I can convince him.” She analyzed everything clearly. “Also, since you helped me twice, I’ll take this fully as returning your favor.”

At this moment, Toby was still looking at her, and there was an obvious upset in his eyes. He could tell that she didn’t want to owe him anything.

“Is it because I’m Leo’s friend?” he asked out of nowhere.

Hearing that, Amelie looked at him, puzzled.

“Nothing,” he replied almost instantly before taking over the contract to change the quotation.

When she saw that he agreed so quickly, she heaved a sigh of relief. With a smile, she took back the contract. “Please send me the necessary documents when you go back, Mr. Walsh, but I still have another condition.”

When Toby heard that, he raised his brows. “What is it?”

“While I’m trying to convince Owen, I can follow you to other places to discuss business, but Leo can’t tag along. Also, I hope you won’t let him know I’m Foxy.”

Surprised, he blinked quickly. “Why? He treated you quite badly in those days. Don’t you want to take this opportunity to leave an egg on his face?”

However, there was not much of an expression on her face.

Toby wore a mischievous smile. “If Leo cared a little about you, he would know that you’re Foxy four years ago, and this project could have been started at that time. If you tell him now that you’re Foxy, the egg on his face is definitely a rotten one.”

“Are you really Leo’s friend? You’re actually asking me to embarrass him?” Amelie commented half-jokingly.

When he looked at her smiling face, it made him recall the two times he saved her when she looked like a mess, and it wrenched his heart.

Yet, she didn’t know what was on his mind. As she lowered her head a little, she put a strand of her hair behind her ear. “The best thing to do after a divorce is not see each other for the rest of our lives. Embarrassing him doesn’t really matter.”

From the way she talked about this so openly, it was obvious that she had already let this go.

At this moment, Toby suddenly fluttered. “Since you’ve already let it go, isn’t it time to start the next relationship? What kind of man are you looking for?”

When he asked the question, he stood straighter than he usually did to make himself look more charming.
