Along the way, Amelia was thinking about the news that Liam told her.She refused to believe it, but Liam didn't have any reason to lie to her. But since she wasn't able to figure it out, Amelia decided to seek out the answer herself.…When Karl opened the door, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Amelia standing outside."Why are you here?" he asked.Upon seeing that she insisted on coming, Liam suggested that she went directly without calling them so that she could know the truth they were hiding from her.Therefore, after knocking on the door, Amelia gathered her attention and indeed, she noticed a flash of guilt on Karl's face.Amelia's heart sank, but she didn't show it on her face. She said, "I've been too bored at home these days. I'm coming to ask if there's any work.""Come in first," Karl replied.As they sat down, Karl raised his eyebrows and said, "I thought you might need some rest during this period. It's not like you to ask me about work in such a hurry!"
"Do you feel disappointed now and want to ask him for a clear answer?" Karl gave her a cup of tea and continued, "I suggest you not to ask him."Amelia looked at him. Even though she didn't speak, Karl knew that she was waiting for him to continue."Since you entered Astra, Mr. Richards has always taken care of you, especially after your debut. As a newbie, you always received good resources. It can be said that many experienced artists don't even get the resources as good as yours."Amelia couldn't deny his claim.Karl continued, "Although Mr. Richards has the final say when it comes to Astra, many high-level officials have put forward their opinions many times in the executive meeting. Mr. Richards can suppress all the opinions regardless of everyone's opposition, but he'd be in trouble if it happens too many times."After hearing this, Amelia's heart calmed down. It was undeniable that what Karl said did make sense.However, her career had been smooth for such a long time; it
After coming out from Astra, Amelia received a call from Eric."I heard that you came to the company today?" he said.Amelia felt a little complicated upon hearing his voice. However, she said briskly, "Yes. You're truly the CEO of the company. You even know of such a small matter.""Your matter is no small matter," Eric replied.Amelia frowned slightly. But just as she was about to speak, she heard his voice, "Since you've come to the company, you must have known that I've suspended your work. If I don't explain it clearly to you, I'm afraid that you'll blame me and never contact me again."Amelia chuckled. "You're the CEO of the company who makes decisions based on your reasoning. How can I blame you? It's even more impossible for me to stop contacting you because of this. If I offend you, how can I continue staying in the company in the future?""It seems that you're really not angry, seeing as how you can still joke with me. I feel relieved," Eric said."I'm not angry at all
"I know," Amelia said. Even though Liam didn't tell her specifically, he couldn't hide these things from her. Besides, a lot of information was revealed when Ember and James were quarreling."Is it weird that I know something about the Prescott family? Or are you worried that I'll harm him?" Eric's question hit her heart and made it tremble.Was she worried about Liam? Amelia didn't understand it either, she had just asked about it naturally and causally."I … didn't mean that. I just don't want to see you two …" She didn't want them to turn against each other. "After all, you're still brothers," she said.Amelia found that her voice was a little choked. When she said this, her heart ached."He has never regarded me as a brother." Eric sneered. "Not only him, but everyone in that family never regarded me as a family member.""They do, at least Dad does. Because of you, he's quarreled with Mom several times, and even … Eric, please don't think like this. I think you can actually g
Amelia had a lot more free time now since she had no jobs. Except for the training class, she found herself a little bored.When Amelia received Alex's call, she was a little surprised. They hadn't been in contact for a long time now."Lia, I'm not in a good mood. Can you come and accompany me?"Ever since meeting Alex, Amelia had never witnessed such miserable emotions coming from her, so she agreed without any hesitation.Amelia had been to Alex's house before and had stayed there for a while. Hence, she quickly rushed over.When the door opened, she saw Alex with a haggard face and messy hair.Amelia was startled and quickly held her hand. "What happened to you?"Alex's body stiffened for a moment. Then, she threw herself into Amelia's arms and started crying.Listening to her cry, Amelia felt sad for her. She hugged her back and coaxed softly, "If you feel sad, just cry. You'll feel better after crying. I'll be here with you."She didn't know what happened, but it must be
Liam and Amelia lived in Luxury Gardens and had not called May over.Liam prepared the meals every day. He was also responsible for the housework in the morning, while Amelia was responsible for the housework in the evening.Other than the fact that they slept in separate rooms, they lived like an ordinary couple. Even when they interacted, Liam paid attention to boundaries and wouldn't touch Amelia inappropriately.Amelia remembered that one time, he seemed to want to kiss her. However, when he approached her, she smelled a faint scent of perfume on him. She quickly frowned and stepped back.Liam's face turned gloomy as he noticed her evasion, but he didn't continue.So in this regard, he still respected her.But Amelia didn't know that the reason Liam was so restrained was because after what happened that night, Liam had hurt her and made her further alienate herself from him.Liam remembered this incident in his heart and it was one of the few regrets he had.He was afra
Upon listening to Amelia's words, Alex had a look of envy on her face."It's great that you've found your happiness. It really is," Alex said.Was she happy? Amelia didn't know either. Subconsciously, she felt that she should stay away from Liam so that she wouldn't be harmed.However, due to her grandmother's advice from an early age, she was more tolerant and kind to Liam than other people from the beginning of their marriage.She also remembered her grandmother saying that she should be loyal to her husband after marriage.Liam had done something wrong and had hurt her, but Amelia also did something wrong unconsciously. Because of this fact, Amelia felt she was not being reasonable.But what Amelia had been struggling with was that despite her having no feelings for Eric, Liam's feelings for Hannah were vague.And Hannah even had a child now.Later on, Liam had even forced her and hurt her regardless of her wishes. Amelia was unwilling to forgive him, but he had saved her li
"Amelia, I slept with him." Alex's sudden confession shocked Amelia."With whom?""He's the person I told you about before," Alex said with a complicated look. Then, she smiled at Amelia and added, "Are you not happy for me?""So you're behaving so abnormally because of this? If this is the case, how can I still be happy? Alex, what actually happened?" Amelia asked.If it was really something worth being happy about, Alex wouldn't have cried and been in a bad mood.It was obvious that she had been wronged."Did he hurt you and was unwilling to take responsibility? Who is he? I'll go find him." Amelia was angry as she thought about that possibility. She wondered why there were so many irresponsible men in the world.Alex quickly grabbed her and said, "No, I did it voluntarily."Amelia looked at her in doubt, but upon seeing that there was no anger and guilt on her face, she slowly calmed down.She looked at her seriously and asked, "So, what's going on?"Alex explained, "I …
