Chapter 10

“So, where did you meet sis?” Layla asked. She was not about to let him off the hook.

“I had gone for a business meeting to talk about a proposal with one of our partners. I only found out that she works there when she entered the meeting room.” Oliver said. He did not want Layla to misunderstand anything so he simply explained.

“How is she? Did you two meet and talk afterward?”

“No. She was fired even the before the meeting ended.” Oliver said in a careless tone. He really seemed not to care about Amelia making Layla secretly sigh in relief.

Although she was happy on the inside, she did not let it show on her face. She put on an appropriate worried expression and looked at Oliver.

“What? Is she alright? Why would she be fired?” Layla widened her eyes in shock as she asked.

“She did not do her work properly and ended up offending her boss, so she was fired,” Oliver said. Thinking about the blank papers and Amelia making a fool out of herself in the meeting room, his

    Chapter 11 It has been one week since Amelia was discharged from the hospital. The bandage on her head had been removed and she could say that she had fully recovered. Apart from Chloe and Peter, no one else had visited her. Chloe came almost every day and Peter would come once in a while. She was cooped up in her house and rarely went out. Since Axel came the day she was discharged, she has not heard from him again. Today was her last check-up and she was currently sitting in the doctor’s office awaiting her medical report. Chloe was by her side as always, munching on the watermelon that the doctor had given them. “You really have some guts, don’t you?” Amelia asked, looking at her friend who was chewing like a squirrel. “What?” Chloe looked at her with a confused gaze. “How can you eat in a hospital like it is a restaurant? I can’t even breathe out loud with all the mixed smell of medicine, but look at you.” As they were still arguing, the doctor came back. “Miss Lightwood,

    Chapter 12 Amelia was staring at the man, not knowing what to say. Finally having a closer look at him, she realized just how good-looking he was. His face was flawless, not a single spot could be seen, his eyebrows were neither thin nor thick, and his eyes were deep and mysterious. It was as if he could see through anyone just with a single glance. His nose was sharp and straight. It was perfectly situated on his handsome face, enhancing his ethereal beauty. His lips were thin. They had a pinkish color and coupled with his light skin, he looked like a supermodel. She swore in her heart that if this man was to become a celebrity, everyone will have no choice but to bow to him. Amelia was lost in her thoughts as she looked at the man. It was not until she heard a deep chuckle that she realized just how close they were. They were so close that their breath seem to intertwine. With the clacking sound of the partition, her heart also drummed in her chest. She hurriedly looked away as

    Chapter 13In the private booth at the high end restaurant…Chloe was looking at Amelia like she was trying to find some treasures on her.“What are you looking at?” Amelia asked.“Aren’t you going to say something? What happened?”“Nothing happened. Wasn’t I in the same car as you?” Amelia asked. She gave her friend a cheeky smile. Clearly, she was just trying to mess with her.“Lets us eat first and then I will tell you everything!” Amelia spoke. She was hungry and the aroma of food was tempting.She had been surviving on instant nodules for the past few days. Her mouth could not wait to taste real food.Although Chloe was reluctant to let the matter go, she forgot about it as soon as she had her first bite. She did not stop until all the dishes were cleared.“Good food and beauty, that is paradise.” she commented. “Thank God I did not have to be some public figure or else, I would have died of hunger.” she said as she looked at Amelia.Although Amelia was no longer appearing on th

    Chapter 14 "Sis, it has been such a long time since we saw each other. When you first left, I tried calling to apologize that it was not your fault that I lost my baby but I could not get a hold of you. It was my fault back then for being careless, I am sorry that no one believed you." Layla said. Her eyes were filled with a sincere light and anyone who saw her would think that she has really suffered over the years and she really meant what she said. Tears had started to gather in her eyes and she looked fragile. But Amelia did not have any reaction. She did not even spare a glance as she continued to walk over to the elevator. She was about to step into the elevator when her hand was held from behind. "Sis, can you forgive me? I never imagined that things would turn out like this. I did not imagine that my falling in love with Oliver would hurt you so much, I have been living in guilty all these years and I haven't had a day of peace. You can even ask Oliver." Layla

    Chapter 15 In the elevator, Amelia still had a cold expression and her hands that were hanging on her sides were clenched into fists. Her face did not look good and her moods seemed to have become terrible. "Amelia my dear, just ignore the cheating bastard and bitch. I think that they really deserve each other, as for you, you deserve more my love." Chloe said. "Some things cannot be evaded forever. You had to face them sooner or later, just take it as you trying to strengthen your heart." She continued. Chloe knew what her friend was feeling at the moment. She had been her best friend since high school and she had witnessed everything with her own eyes. She had taken Amelia's emotions as hers and she is the one who understands her the most. "I know." Amelia nodded after a long time. Although she had not been prepared to meet Layla and Oliver today, she had done so much better than when she had met Oliver a few weeks ago at her former company. She knew that she had

    Chapter 16 After dropping the bomb, Axel went back to read his documents. It was as if he did not care about the impact of his words. It was as if he was telling his assistant to go and get him a cup of coffee. Peter felt that this was the hardest mission of his entire career. Find his boss a wife, he could as well go buy himself a coffin. "Anything the matter?" Axel's cold voice reached his ears and his heart almost jumped out of his skin. "Nothing boss. I will go execute the matter right away!" Peter said. It really was hard being the tyrant's assistant. Although the benefits were good and tempting, it really was life-threatening. Peter walked towards the door with shaking legs. He did not dare waste another second in the office or else he might be told to just bring over the marriage certificate. When he reached the door, he remembered something and he turned to look at his boss who had his face buried in documents. He mastered up all his lifetime courage and a

    Chapter 17 Bella was so shocked by her daughter’s words that it took her a long while to grasp what she was saying. “You mean to say that Amelia, that good-for-nothing bitch is actually back?” she asked. “Yes, mom. I just bumped into her today. I heard Oliver say that she doesn’t have a job and that she has been back for a while.” Layla said. She thought she would be able to drive Amelia to the wall alone but seeing her eat at such a fancy hotel sent a warning bell in her mind. Although she was with Chloe and her family background was slightly better, she knew that such a place required people with a membership card and there is no way Chloe would have it. “Didn’t grandfather say that he will be writing his will after his birthday in a few days? Although history is now managed by grandmother, most of the shares are under grandfather’s name and only he can determine who inherits the company in the future!” Layla said. Although she did not want to ‘mean anything, her mother still

What did Peter mean by all the things he said?” Amelia looked at her friend and shrugged her shoulders feeling like her view of the world has been turned upside down. “Ooh my goodness, did this man just propose marriage to you?” “I don’t know girl, I am just as confused as you are. But who does that? Who comes to someone’s house and says I want you to marry my boss? Where is the logic in that?” Amelia asked. She was still recovering from the shock that Peter had dropped on her and her sleep was completely gone. “What will you do?” “What can I do? I am not going to marry some stranger that I have just met. I don’t even want to think about it. What I want now is a job and to move on with my life.” Amelia spoke. Although she has never been shocked like this in her entire life, she was not about to throw herself at a man she knew nothing about. “But Amelia, you have to admit tha

I should have noticed that she was to feel well a long time ago. Why did I realize it just now?” Axel was stunned. He never imagined that his son would be sensitive to that extent. “I am the one to blame. If I haven’t been too busy with work, your mom would be okay. I have failed her.” “Come here.” he summoned his son and then pulled him into his embrace. He had been too busy recently that he had failed to notice the abnormalities surrounding Amelia. He only prayed that it was nothing serious. After what seemed like forever, the doctors finally exited the emergency room. “How is my wife?” Axel did not hesitate to ask. “Don’t worry,

    Chapter 147 “Axel, you are finally willing to show yourself. I am glad that you did because I want you to experience the pain that you have never experienced. The pain of having to watch your loved ones fall in front of you without doing anything.” Charles spat. “Before you condemn me, please watch this,” Axel said as he threw a phone at Charles. Charles caught it and the moment his finger touched the screen, a video started to play out. It was the courtroom and there was a case in session. Although Charles did not know what it was, he decided to watch it. But at the end of the video, his face was contorted and a look of disbelief washed over his face. “I told you that I had nothing to do with that car accident but you never listened. If you had been in the country for the past few years, you would not have wasted your time doing all these.” Axel said coldly. “No! This can’t be real. You are the one who caused the death of my brother.” “If you don’t believe me, the culprit is a

Although being parents demanded more from them, Axel and Amelia felt accomplished every time they finished a day. “I have never known that you are good with kids,” Amelia said as she watched Axel bathing their son, Derek. “I have a great teacher with me. What is there for me not to learn?” Axel asked. Amelia blushed at his words. Ever since he became a father, Axel had been treating her extremely well. Sometimes, she felt like she was soaked in honey. It was sweet but not sickening. After putting the little ones to sleep, Axel approached Amelia. “Are you still… you know?” Axel asked in a deep voice. It had been three months since Amelia gave birth and they were yet to be intimate. Amelia looked at her husband and felt even more loved. She knew that her husband had been holding it in for a long time, it was finally time for him to get some privileges. “I miss you too,” Amelia said. She missed be

Although I have done almost none of those things in the past twenty-something years. From today onwards, before God and before our family, I want to promise you that I will forever hold your hand, I will give you a shoulder to lean on and I will be your best friend. I will make sure that the only thing that can be seen on your angelic face is your beautiful smile and tears of joy. When the sun rises, I want to be by your side, and I want to hold your hand as we watch it set. Joylin, I love you more than anything this world has to offer. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.”Jackson emotionally said. His words earned a round of applause from the audience.

    Chapter 144 At the supreme court… The case did not take long because the evidence presented by Axel was very clear and precise. No matter how Mel and Sandra tried to deny it, they only made people hate them more. Layla had also been dragged into the mud by Mel. Mel claimed that the idea to bribe the doctor and have Amelia’s uterus removed originated from her. “Sandra Dawson and Mel Dawson, after looking at the evidence presented to the court of law, I now sentence you to life imprisonment without parole.” “Miss Layla Lightwood, because of your crooked idea, you almost denied someone the right to become a mother. You have been therefore sentenced to twenty years in prison with two years of community service.” … Seasons went by quickly and Amelia was in her final trimester. Axel had taken her on a vacation and they were currently walking on the beach while Amelia took photos from time to time. “Time has gone by really first. I remember the first time we came to this place, I did

They felt like they were a piece of meat on the chopping board. “Insolent, vile creatures,” Winter shouted as he slammed his hand on the table. Mel jumped from fright and almost fell. Sandra’s face was pale as she stared at the stranger woman before her. Her face had been appearing in her dreams almost every night for the past twenty years or so. She never imagined that there will be a day she will see her face to face. She looked at her as if she was looking at a ghost. She never imagined that her sister had survived the fire accident and she will one day show up here. She would have just let the doctors strangle her to death while she was in the hospital. “Can you explain the meaning of this?” Winter said as he played the recording between Mel and the doctor. How has he never realized that he has been hosting wolves in his home, instead of humans? He was so angry that

Joylin and Jackson had come over early in the morning and she and Lily were busy in the kitchen preparing brunch. “I feel like the world has become a completely different place. I thought that there is always something good in every person, but as it turns out, some people are just born evil and that will never change.” Joylin said as she looked at Lily, feeling sorry for her for all the pain she had endured over the years. Although it has only been a few hours since they met, the two women had already connected and now, they talking like long time friends. “Yeah. When you try to see the good in people, you will always be the one getting hurt. If I had known that my son and daughter will go through so much under that woman’s evil hands, I would have come out a long time ago.” “But how comes your husband never realized that he has been living with a fraud all these years?” Joylin aske

Lily was setting the dinner table and after contemplating for a while, Amelia decided to ask the question that was bothering her. “Mom, when are you planning to tell him?” she asked. When Lily heard Amelia call her mom, her hands trembled and she almost dropped the bowl in her hands. She turned to look at Amelia with a stunned gaze, not believing her ears. Had she just called her mom? The emotions that the word had stirred in her heart were so much that she was left speechless. How long had it been since someone called her mom? She almost thought that she will never hear that word, ever again. As for Amelia, she did not feel ashamed when she called Lily mom. She was Axel’s mom so, it came naturally. Although Lily was stunned, she quickly came back to her senses, “What are you talking about?” she asked Amelia as if she was not

What kind of life did he live?” Lily asked nervously. “Why are you suddenly interested in my husband’s life when he was young?” Amelia asked as she squinted her eyes at the woman. Did she not want to hide her identity anymore? Although she had guessed a lot by now, she still needed some clarity to be certain that she was on the right path. “Don’t read much into it. Talking about something that interests you when you are pregnant can help improve your mood. It is beneficial for you and the baby.” Lily said. She had calmed down quite a bit and her voice had returned to normal. She was already by her son’s side and she could not be asking for more. As long as she could personally take care of her son and her daughter-in-law, it did not matter even if she had to hide for the rest of her life.
