My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 129

Leo paused and looked up just as everyone else was attracted by the adorable voice they heard. Then, they began looking around and searching for the source of the voice, only to realize it came from a child Julia was carrying a few moments later.

With a fair face and a pair of big and beautiful eyes, the child appeared to be holding a microphone. At that moment, the first impression that came to everyone’s mind was how adorable the child was, but soon, they were immediately stunned by a thought that simultaneously flashed through their heads.

Did this little girl just say that? Is she going to challenge Jodie Alston? Where did a little girl like her get all the courage to challenge an adult? Have we been mistaken?

“I’ll sing!” The child in Julia’s arms repeated her words one more time just when everyone was guessing where the voice came from. While the girl opened her mouth and uttered her sentence word by word, the adults finally made sense of what was going on.

“Goodness, it was her who said that.”

“Whose kid is this? That’s some courage she has right there.”

“My kid is older than her, but he doesn’t dare to perform in front of a crowd.”

“Why aren’t my kids as talented as others…”

At the same time, Amelie finally noticed the child’s presence. Surprise was written all over her face as she asked, “Hello, Bria. What brings you here?” It turned out that the little girl Julia was carrying was none other than Amelie’s daughter, Bria.

With two ponytails hanging around her shoulders, Bria rested her head in Amelie’s arms when she heard her mother’s words. Despite her slight guilt, she went ahead and answered loudly. “Today is your big day, so I’ve come to show you my support, Mommy!” She raised her fists in the air adorably, melting Amelie’s heart.

In the end, she forgot about lecturing her daughter. At the same time, the mother and the daughter’s lovely interaction also gave the bystanders a hint about Bria’s identity. Thus, they were curious to learn more about

them.

Meanwhile, Jodie was caught off guard by Bria’s sudden presence, for she didn’t expect the little girl to challenge her in her mother’s place. What’s the meaning of this? Are they implying that I’m only fit to challenge a child? Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

The thought of that made her blood boil through every single vein in her body. She then glared at Amelie as a gesture to signal the latter to take Bria away. However, Amelie didn’t notice Jodie’s signal, but Julia noticed it instead. Thus, she curled her lips upward and carried Bria onto the stage. “You can do it, Bria!” Julia wanted to give the girl a high five.

In that instant, the cute girl’s response melted the hearts of everyone in the hall. “That girl. Doesn’t she belong to the Alston Family?”

“That lady on the stage is from the Alston Family. Her name is Jodie Alston.”

“Whoa, is this a family battle or something?”

“Mr. Alston divorced Amelie Dillon, so are they still a family?”

Soon, the place was filled with gossip and murmurs discussing the relationship between the Alston Family and Amelie. As they began to talk more and more about it, they grew more interested in Amelie’s story. After all, Amelie was challenged by her former sister-in-law just when her daughter showed up and accepted the challenge in her place. The show is getting better and better! Although all of the guests were from the upper class of society, they were no different from regular busybodies.

In the meantime, Jodie’s identity was revealed just as she found herself in a tight spot; much to her dismay. she had been challenged by a child. Standing on the stage in embarrassment, she didn’t even know what to do other than react with a pale face. “I’m sorry. I will not accept the child’s challenge,” she replied, gritting her teeth.

How dare you challenge me, you idiotic brat?! While cursing Bria on the inside. Jodie desperately swapped eye contact with the girl in hopes that she would get her message and leave.

Nevertheless, Bria was not the same little girl she was, fearing Jodie no more. Soon, she took big strides toward the stage and stood next to Jodie, grinning at everyone else adorably. “Goodness! She is so cute!”

Bria’s beautiful smile instantly ignited the atmosphere as everyone cheered in excitement. After all, she inherited Amelie and Leo’s good genes, which were evident in her fair skin and beautiful face. At the same

time, the huge difference between Jodie and Bria’s height presented an amusing sight to behold due to the

child’s short stature.

Despite Jodie’s good looks and fashionable outfit, the guests couldn’t help but fix their gazes on Bria. Noticing that, Jodie became irritable and frustrated with Bria’s refusal to leave. Ugh! Why won’t this brat mind her own

business?! She is standing by my side as if we’re both contestants in a competition. I wish I could just stomp

her to death!

However, Bria acted as if she didn’t notice Jodie’s anger. Instead, she gazed at the adult with a smile. “Don’t worry, Madam. I could sing first if you’re a little shy. You can sing after me and help me hype up the crowd.”

Is it so difficult to call me Aunt Jodie? Why did you call me Madam?! Jodie was annoyed by the way Bria addressed her, but soon, she quickly got over it, thinking her niece probably only knew how to sing some nursery rhymes that she learned from school as she hadn’t heard Bria sing before.

Fine, since you insist, I figure I should teach you a lesson by knocking you down to size. When everyone hears your terrible voice later, they’ll all blame your mother for failing to teach you well. As for me, I’m going to need a stage like this to show my talent. Then, I’ll visit Starlight Media for an interview again, and if Amelie

Jodie was still angry about the humiliation she suffered at Starlight Media earlier, which was why she was determined to have her revenge. “Tine.” Jodie nodded, feeling better at the thought of that. She then continued to hold the microphone in front of her mouth and said, “Don’t expect much from a child who is still in preschool. If she sings poorly later, please go easy on her.“

When Julia heard that, she ambiguously curled her lips upward and spoke to Bria. “Just be yourself, Bria.” At the same time, Amelie only kept her head down as if she failed to notice Jodie’s sarcastic

words directed at her daughter.

Upon hearing Julia’s words of encouragement, Jodie felt relieved and stepped back, leaving the stage to Bria. While she smirked arrogantly and watched from the side, Bria seemed busy searching for the center on the stage, which Jodie found amusing and laughable. Without telling anyone to play the music, she then brought the microphone closer to her mouth and tested the audio.

The child’s actions were a sight of amusement for Jodie. “This is funny. This little girl knows exactly what to do on stage like a professional even though she hasn’t learned how to sing yet. It makes me wonder who taught her all these tricks, but without proper training, I doubt this is going to turn out well for her.”

As soon as Jodie finished her words, a clear and crisp voice was heard like the chirping birds in the forest. “Wait, what?” Jodie looked as if she just saw a ghost, finding it ironic that she had just mocked Bria for her impractical tricks. Am I hearing things now? This voice is simply just… spellbinding.

Refusing to believe the voice was Bria’s, Jodie looked around her for signs that might suggest the girl was lip- syncing to a pre-recorded track.

On the other hand, Bria lost herself in the music, closing her eyes while swaying her body to the rhythm. “Goodness! I can’t believe that little girl can sing so well despite her age.”

“Her voice is magical!”

“Look at the emotions on her face! Everything is perfect!”

Murmurs and gossip once again filled the silent atmosphere; no one thought Bria could sing so well. After all, they thought she could only sing some nursery rhymes that she learned from school just like Jodie initially did.

Amelie was just as surprised as the guests while listening to her daughter sing. “Since when did my girl become so good at singing?” After all, she had always known Bria for being restless and playful. Although she was also aware that Bria would pester Jamie to teach her how to sing, she didn’t think her daughter would improve so much.

“My girl is gifted!” Julia said as if Bria was her biological daughter.

Meanwhile, Bria had more surprises to show, singing at the highest pitch she could go at the end of the song. In that instant, everyone else was left with their eyes wide open upon hearing her voice, unable to believe a child like her could sing in such a high-pitched tone. While the guests were still intoxicated by the girl’s sweet voice, it suddenly came to a stop.
