Chapter 195: My Sugar And Your Spice Chapter 204

“I’m telling the teacher if you snatch it!”Bria’s personality had changed a lot, for she had learned to fight back.As such, she shouted in her crisp voice.The girl was already holding the flowers in her arms, but when she heard Bria shouting, she began to look a little scared.She worked hard to get those flowers, so she was reluctant to give them back just like that.Hence, she ran away with the flowers in her arms.“Chloe, only robbers snatch things.” Bria subconsciously raised her voice, attracting the attention of the other children.When they saw Chloe Hill snatching what belonged to Bria, their sense of justice was instantly ignited.“Chloe, our teacher gave it to Bria. You can’t touch that.”“You’re bullying Bria because she can’t walk. You’re a naughty child!”“If you don’t give it back, we’re going to tell on you!”The children chattered as they kept scolding Chloe. Some of them were even going to tell the teacher about it.Despite her reluctance, Chloe could only return the flowers to Bria.Bria held the flowers as she said sincerely, “Thank you all for helping me.”The other children felt especially accomplished for delivering justice.They crowded around Bria and began chatting with her.Bria had always been a friendly child, and she was quite adept at bringing children together. She was also generous, and the children liked her a lot.She took out the snacks she brought and distributed them to the children. “My grandpa made these for me. They’re yummy.”Steven pampered his granddaughter a lot. He was worried that the snacks outside were unhealthy, so he prepared snacks for her daily.It was the children’s first time eating such unique snacks, so they were overjoyed.Bria was never selfish. She didn’t mind if she knew the children or not; she distributed the snacks all the same.A few children who were on good terms with Chloe saw this, and they all went over to Bria.They gathered around and tried the snacks as they chatted away, enjoying themselves.At the side, Chloe was silently left alone.She had always looked down on other people simply because she was pretty and better off than the others.

She even thought that everyone had to do what she said.When she saw everyone gathering around Bria, she was so pissed that she stomped her feet.She even glared at her lackeys, but none of them noticed her.She had never been treated like this before. She was so furious that she was going to lose her mind, and she deeply hated Bria for it.The more she hated Bria, the more she wanted the latter to suffer.Chloe thought for a bit, then her eyes gleamed. She raised her volume, saying, “My mommy and daddy came today. They’re so nice to me.”“My mommy and daddy came too.”“My mommy and daddy came as well.”Everyone responded accordingly.“Everyone’s mommies and daddies are here. It’s nothing special.”Chloe blinked, then fixed her gaze on Bria. “Your daddy isn’t here, right?”Bria was stunned, but still, she replied quickly, “My daddy is coming later.”“Liar!” Chloe seemed to have gotten ahold of the cat’s tail as she threw her head back, shouting in a louder voice, “Do you think I wouldn’t know? You don’t have a daddy. Everyone knows that, and the teacher knows it too!”Chloe knew about this, for the incident was exposed on the day Bria went to kindergarten.The teachers hid it well, and the child who said that Bria didn’t have a father was transferred to another school, but Chloe found out since she had special connections at home.When the children heard Chloe mention that the teachers knew about it too, they were a little doubtful. Even those who wanted to speak up for Bria fell silent.They then turned their gazes toward Bria.Chloe was even more gleeful as she pointed at the girl.

“She’s a liar. Why are you all being friends with a liar?”The children all knew that kids who lied were bad. They subconsciously took a few steps back and kept a distance from Bria.“I have a daddy, and he’s visited the school a few times before!” Bria said unhappily, her tiny face filled with stubbornness.Chloe sounded a heavy huff. “Who knows who that man is! Anyway, he isn’t your daddy!”With that, she looked at the other children. “Whoever becomes friends with her will be a liar, just like her!” The children didn’t want to be liars, so they quickly put the snacks back.Bria looked at the returned snacks, a wronged expression surfacing on her clean little face as her eyes turned red.“I’m not a liar,” she repeated.However, Chloe had spoken so firmly and even mentioned the teachers, so who would doubt her?“Turns out that Bria is a liar all along.”“She lied to us.”“We don’t want to be liars.”“Let’s not play with her anymore.”“…”“What’s the matter?”While the children were talking, a deep man’s voice sounded.Everyone turned around to see a handsome man standing not far away.The man was very tall, and his clothes were very neat. He had long fingers and long legs.They had never met this man before, and they all stared at him with huge, curious eyes.Leo weaved through the crowd and made his way to Bria. “Bria, sorry to keep you waiting.”He kneeled in front of Bria, his voice gentle as he spoke.When Bria saw Leo, her face brightened up joyfully as she shouted, “Daddy!”She reached out and wrapped her arms tightly around Leo’s neck. “Daddy, why are you late?”Leo pursed his lips, a little regretful as he said, “I got delayed on my way.”The other children fell silent.They gathered behind the two, their large eyes gazing at Bria and Leo.“Bria does have a daddy,” someone mumbled.It was only then that Bria let go of Leo, introducing him proudly, “This is my daddy.”Chloe was at a loss for words, and she widened her eyes in disbelief.She never thought that Bria would have a father and such a handsome one at that.He was as handsome as the celebrities on TV.In fact, he was even more handsome than her father!“What happened just now? Did they bully you, Bria?” Even though Leo had just gotten out of the car, he still noticed Bria’s pitiful expression.He looked at Bria, his voice cold as he spoke.The other children all turned to look at Chloe, and the girl took a step back timidly.“Mr. Alston, what a surprise it is to see you here.”A man and a woman walked into the crowd, smiling as they greeted Leo.Even though they were in Halport, the Alstons’ business was expansive, so the two recognized him.The woman bent over and took Chloe into her arms. “Children always make a ruckus, and they don’t always watch their words. I hope you and Bria can forgive her.”Leo’s expression remained cold.Even though he wasn’t looking at the two, a chilly aura exuded from him as if he were a moving fridge.“I can understand children being careless with their words, but it is the adults’

responsibility to teach and correct them,” he said calmly.“Well…” The couple exchanged glances, their faces turning red.They had been standing nearby when Chloe bullied Bria, but they pretended not to have seen it.They behaved like this since they didn’t know Bria was Leo’s child.Furthermore, they were also upset that the teacher had given Bria all the flowers, so they wanted Chloe to teach Bria a little lesson. Most of all, they just wanted to pamper their daughter and let her be.They were originally thinking of getting on good terms with Leo so that they could get some business.Now that things had turned out like this, they no longer stood a chance—perhaps they would never have a chance in the future.The man and woman were feeling unspeakably defeated and greatly regretted their selfish behavior just now.Leo didn’t say anything else to them as he picked Bria up. “Where’s Mommy? Let’s look for her together.”It wasn’t until the two had walked away that the children came to their senses.They were all intimidated by Leo’s aura just now, and none of them dared to make a sound or even move.“Turns out that Chloe is the real liar!” A child pointed at Chloe and shouted.The other children started scolding her as well.Chloe’s parents were dejected and could do nothing but slip away.Meanwhile, Amelie had just emerged from the washroom.She was worried about Bria’s inconvenience, so she couldn’t help but walk a little hurriedly.As soon as she dashed out, she ran straight into someone.“Oh!” With a low grunt, she staggered backward.She didn’t notice a small ditch behind her.She was about to fall when a large hand grabbed her wrist.The hand was big and strong, and the palm was dry and warm.
