When Karl saw the guesses online, he rubbed between his eyebrows in exasperation. "You once said that she's a very obedient woman. Now, I feel like she's the most rebellious celebrity I've seen!" he exclaimed.Of course, Oscar saw the intimate photo as well. A netizen had published it online, saying that they had bumped into Amelia and Liam shopping together.He felt a little bitter in his heart as he looked at the photo on his phone.His Silly Billy was getting further and further away from him.No, from the very start, he never even had a chance to confess his feelings. She had already begun distancing herself from him then."That man will deal with it," he simply said.Karl looked at Oscar curiously. "You seem to have changed your opinions of him. I remember you objecting to him in the past."Oscar smiled. "People change. Moreover, I didn't have a lot of contact with him in the past, so I didn't understand him.""So now you're contacting him more often? Aren't you worried th
"Lia, I … You … Calm down first. I can explain!" Seeing Amelia's expression shift, Liam was extremely panicked as well. He feared that Amelia would lose her trust and hope in him because of this."Madam Prescott, you didn't fancy our Hannie, but you value a woman like this? Look at your son! He's humbling himself so much in front of this woman because of something trivial like that! As his mother, how can you bear to watch this?"My Hannie would never be like this in front of your son! When they're together, my Hannie always listens to your son! But your family chose to protect a woman like that as if she's some treasure!" Charles exclaimed. Ember never liked Amelia. So when Charles insulted her like that, she disliked Amelia even more. However, she had already spoken up for Liam just now, so she couldn't take Charles' side at the moment. And even if Charles had a point, she wouldn't allow the daughter of the Lancaster family to marry into the Prescott family."This is a matter
Amelia had no idea when Charles left. Her mind was solely focused on the news that Hannah was pregnant.She went back to the bedroom. Then, supporting herself against the basin, she sobbed her heart out.Ember opened the door and came in. When she saw how sad Amelia was, she suddenly recalled James who cheated on her and swallowed the insults she was about to say."You're simply not capable enough. What's the point in getting cooped up in here and crying about it?"Amelia raised her head, looking at Ember through the mirror. She saw Ember looking at her in disdain, but surprisingly, Ember didn't make things worse for her."I'm going to the hospital to have a look. Do you want to come with me?" Ember asked.Amelia was a little shocked. She didn't expect Ember to speak to her so calmly."What about him?" Amelia asked."With such a huge incident happening, of course, he has to go and settle it. Do you think he's only capable of running away like you did? My son defended you in
"What are you doing, Hannie? Hurry and get up! Your hand is bleeding!" Liam hastily went to help Hannah up.But Hannah refused. She stared straight at Amelia as if she would never get up until Amelia agreed.Liam was running out of options. He couldn't convince Hannah, so he looked at Amelia.Amelia bit her lip. Looking back at Liam, she asked, "Are you hoping that I would agree?"Liam was looking at her with a pleading look. Did he think that Amelia was making things harder for his precious little sister? No, she was the mother of his child now!Hah!Amelia smiled. "Liam, I thought that I would see the outcome of your decisions when I arrived. But I never expected to be the one helping you make decisions when I came here!"When Ember heard Amelia's laughter, a look of pity flashed across her face.Without hesitation, she went forward to help Hannah up, but Hannah still refused to get up. So Ember let go of Hannah. Standing up, she lowered her head to look at her. "No matter
When Amelia ran out, Liam instantly panicked. For some reason, he had a feeling that if he didn't explain himself soon, Amelia might leave him for good.But just as he stood up, Hannah screamed emotionally, "Amelia didn't agree, so I can't give birth to the child. If I can't keep the child, what's the point in living anymore? I should just die with the baby!"With that, Hannah ran over to the window without any consideration of the needle on the back of her hand. By the looks of it, she was trying to jump from the window!"Ah! Liam!" Startled, Ember screamed as well. She stopped Liam, who was running outside.She didn't like Hannah, but she never wanted to just watch Hannah die. Moreover, Hannah was now pregnant with the Prescotts' child!Liam was shocked as well. He hastily threw himself at Hannah, hugging her tightly. "Calm down, Hannie. Don't do this!"Hannah struggled with all her might, shaking her head in his arms. "Let go of me and let me die. There's no point for me to
Amelia burst out laughing. "So that's why!"Seeing her smiling with a radiant gleam in her eyes, Eric breathed out a sigh of relief. "You look best when you smile, so you should smile more. Negative emotions like sorrow should never belong to you."Eric's gaze was so passionate that Amelia dared not look at him.She coughed lightly and averted her gaze. The smile on her face had a trace of embarrassment as she said, "Um, would you like to go and play?" She pointed at the amusement park.Noticing her avoidance, Eric felt a little disappointed, but he didn't show it. Instead, he smiled in amusement. "Do you want to see me looking cheap when I scream in excitement?"Amelia grinned. "Yes, but I don't know if I'd have the chance."Eric smiled mysteriously. "Wait here."Soon, he came over with two tickets and handed Amelia one. "It's a full fare. You can go on whatever rides you'd like."She could also get him to go on rides.At that thought, Amelia took the ticket. Then, she went t
Looking at the hand holding hers, Amelia felt her heart skip a beat. She wanted to break free, but Eric had already stopped running and let go of her.He turned around to look at her. "Let's try this one!"He didn't seem awkward at all as he pointed at the pendulum ride ahead of them. Amelia felt a little disappointed in herself.Eric didn't think much of it, but she was the one overthinking it."Sure!" she hastily agreed, hiding the guilt she felt.Eric looked like he hadn't noticed her thoughts. And as if it were the most natural thing in the world, he dragged her over to the ride and even helped her settle in.Eric sat down next to Amelia and her hand was right beside his. He could hear the music and the voices of children playing in the amusement park. And suddenly, Eric had an urge to grip the hand next to his, just like he had done the previous two times.However, he was very sure that if he did that, it would only frighten Amelia and cause her to think too much.He c
After spending a day at the amusement park, Amelia felt that the negative emotions she experienced at the hospital had dissipated a lot. However, when she opened the door, she froze.A pair of leather shoes were placed haphazardly at the entrance. Amelia cleaned up the house every day, so there shouldn't be any shoes left outside the rack.Not to mention, the shoes belonged to Liam.Amelia entered the living room, puzzled. She had just taken a few steps when she caught a whiff of the strong smell of smoke.Amelia couldn't help but frown as she hastened her steps. As expected, she saw a familiar figure standing on the balcony. He was holding a cigarette between his fingers.As far as she remembered, Liam rarely smoked these days. At least, she had never seen him smoke since they moved to Luxury Gardens.Amelia didn't feel like talking to him. She only paused for a moment before returning to the bedroom.She sat there for a few minutes, not knowing what to do. Then, she bega
