When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 202

After the stream, Amelie’s forehead was drenched in sweat.

She took off her fox mask, wiped her sweat, then pushed Bria out of the streaming room.

“Mommy, are you asking Mr. Gareth to pretend to be Daddy?” Bria couldn’t help but ask.

There was a troubled look in her large eyes.

She liked Blake, but she liked Leo as well.

She found it extremely difficult to choose between them.

Amelie caressed her small cheek. “Bria, you haven’t recovered yet, so you can’t join the event. I’ll be in the audience with you, and we can cheer the other children on.”

Bria pursed her small lips, but she didn’t say anything in the end.

When Amelie opened the door the next day, she was surprised to see a large and slender figure standing at the entrance.

The man stood there silently, his stern aura causing the entire corridor to feel suppressive.

“Mr. Alston?”

Amelie was stunned when she saw the man in front of her.

After making it so clear before, she thought that he wouldn’t visit again.

“I’m here to see Bria.” Leo’s expression was cold.

He had always been a serious man, but now, he had grown even colder, and there was a distant look in his eyes.

When Amelie heard that, she stepped aside and allowed him passage.

Leo walked into the house.

After taking a few steps, he paused and turned around slightly. A seemingly nonchalant look colored his eyes as he said, “So you’re asking Blake to attend the event at Bria’s school, eh?”

Amelie was stunned. She didn’t think that he would know about this.

She had only mentioned this while streaming.

Had Leo been watching her streams?

Even though Leo already knew that she was Foxy, she didn’t think that he would watch her streams.

Noticing her silence, Leo allowed his expression to turn even fiercer. “Bria is my daughter; she doesn’t need anyone to replace her father! She doesn’t need outsiders to join her events!”

For a moment, the entire house fell into silence.

Leo paused for a moment, then asked, “What time?”

Amelie realized that he was asking when the event would be held. Even though Bria couldn’t participate and would only spectate at most, she still told him the answer.

“I’ll be there on time,” he said calmly.

Amelie was speechless.

Leo had visited quite early, so Amelie hadn’t had time to make breakfast yet.

Steven had an urgent matter to attend to and was back in Quinn Town. Hence, Amelie had taken on the task of making breakfast.

When breakfast was ready, she walked over to wheel Bria out of the room.

When she entered the room, she saw Bria lying in Leo’s arms, staying quiet like a doll.

Her little fingers were flipping through a book.

As Leo held her, he read the book out loud in his deep voice.

The tense voice he always used had softened now, and he didn’t seem as serious as he usually was; tenderness had washed over him.

Meanwhile, Bria seemed to enjoy the feeling of being embraced by him. As she listened, she narrowed her eyes comfortably while smiling.

When they finished the book, Bria finally noticed Amelie’s presence and called out to her.

It was only then that Amelie removed Bria from Leo’s embrace. “It’s time for breakfast.”

With that, she placed Bria onto the tiny wheelchair and began pushing her outward.

Meanwhile, Leo turned around and looked at the two.

There was a hint of envy in his eyes.

Amelie thought she was seeing things, but still, she asked politely, “Mr. Alston, would you like to join us?”

“Sure.” Leo stood up as well.

He frowned a little. He didn’t like her calling him ‘Mr. Alston’.

On the other hand, Amelie was at a loss for words.

She thought that he would decline, and she didn’t mean to invite him along at all.

Sadly, what was said had been said, so she couldn’t take back her words. It was fortunate that she made extra breakfast.

Amelie wheeled Bria out of the room, then poured a bowl of chicken soup for Bria and Leo respectively.

Leo looked down at the chicken soup, an ambiguous look in his gaze.
