Ms. Escape Marrying to Run Fighting to Rise novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Amelia’s Bluntness

For the first time, Amelia felt the strain of talking to someone.

It was as if she and Jagger weren’t even on the same wavelength.

After commenting that she talked more now, Jagger proceeded to critique her previous point.

He said, “You know, men care most about a woman’s figure. Overweight people do get discriminated against.”

Amelia didn’t know if others discriminated against bigger people.

But she could tell Jagger certainly did.

This felt deeply insulting to Amelia, who had been a chubby child herself and now has a chubby daughter.

She no longer wanted to be in this private room with him.

Amelia didn’t serve Nina any food. Instead, she picked up her phone and texted Benjamin, “Where are you?”

Benjamin replied quickly, “I’m five minutes away from the restaurant. What’s wrong? Is Nina acting up?”

Amelia replied, “No. I just don’t want to finish this dinner anymore. I’ll take Nina and wait for you at the restaurant entrance. We can eat at the mall later.”

Benjamin texted back, “Alright.”

Just as Benjamin agreed, Nina started fussing.

She was trying to climb out of her high chair, wanting to be held. “Mommy, Nina go!”

The little girl who’d been called fat was insisting angrily that they leave.

She didn’t want to eat here anymore.

Seeing this, Amelia lifted her out. She held Nina with one arm, with Nina’s chubby bottom on her hip, and grabbed her backpack with the other hand.

She said, “Jagger, Nina doesn’t want to eat here. I’ll take er out. I’ll pay the bill, so go ahead and finish your meal.”

Amelia’s decision to leave made Jagger frown.

He said, “Amelia, you’re spoiling her. You can’t let a kid get away with this. The more you give in, the more unruly she’ll become.”

He had now made himself out to be a parenting expert.

Hearing his lecturing tone just made Amelia angrier.

“Jagger, you’ve changed,” she said bluntly. “If I knew you turn out like this, I wouldn’t have come to this

dinner at all.”

She’d read online about how some men hit a certain age and turned preachy.

Chapter 267 Amelia’s Bluntness

Looking at Benjamin, she’d thought those words were wrong.

Now, it seemed some things people say online were spot on.

Amelia turned to leave, holding a displeased Nina.

Nina, snuggled up to Amelia, threw the two roses Jagger gave her on the floor.

“Nina mad,” she declared huffily, refusing to look at Jagger.

Amelia moved to stand beside Benjamin, her hand resting on his arm. A sense of calm settled over her the moment he arrived.

Jagger stared at the family of three, his brows deeply furrowed. “Amelia, you said you weren’t married.”

Amelia’s own frown deepened. “I said I’m not married. ut not being married doesn’t mean I’m not in a relationship, does it?

Chapter 267 Amelia’s Bluntness

“I told you I had Nina. This whole act today is really pointless.”

She had been clear earlier, but Jagger had kept pushing.

Now, with Benjamin present, Amelia’s bluntness made Jagger crack.

He shouted, “Fine. Just fine, Amelia. You really know how to mess with people. Having a kid without being married… You were never any good in the first place! I really…

As Jagger’s ugly words hung in the air, Benjamin shifted putting one hand over Nina’s eyes.
