Amelia's eyes widened while looking at Alex's smile.She said, "How could you … Alex, you're crazy! You clearly knew that he loves another woman, and you still acted like that. What will he think of you?"The most important thing was, if that man knew her intentions, would it be possible for them to be together in the future?Alex said, "I'm not crazy. Rather, I'm very clear-headed and I know what I'm doing. Amelia, I'm different from you. If I didn't do it and forced him, he wouldn't let go of that woman."Didn't you also tell me that I should boldly pursue him? Otherwise, I might regret it in the future. I know very well that I'll really regret it if I don't do this. Lia, you don't know how deep my love for him is. As long as I can be with him, I'm willing to do anything."Alex was a little agitated and her eyes radiated a light with persistence. It frightened Amelia."I was …" Amelia only encouraged Alex to try to confess her love. She didn't encourage her to use such a method
Disgusting and evil.When Amelia heard such unpleasant words, she felt as if Alex was scolding her.She was also married, but in the eyes of many people, she had an ambiguous relationship with Eric.Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, Amelia subconsciously substituted herself with the woman Alex was referring to."Lia, what's wrong with you?" Alex finally noticed her abnormality after not getting any response from her. After Alex's question, Amelia suddenly came back to her senses.She subconsciously covered her mouth and hurriedly explained, "Lia, I'm talking about that woman, not you. I … Please don't think about it too much. You were forced; she can't compare to you."Amelia twitched her lips and smiled. "I'm fine, I'm not overthinking it."Amelia comforted Alex, but she knew how panicked she was in her heart. She finally understood why Karl reminded her to clarify her position. What he wanted to remind her of was not only about how Eric's care for her would have a go
"You two betrayed each other at the same time. He had forced himself on you in order to vent his anger. He indeed hurt you, but you couldn't understand his guilt for Hannah and even gave him the cold shoulder. You hurt him as well."Why do you want to act like the victim? You're showing it to Liam and Eric, right?"One of them is thinking about keeping you, and he feels guilty for you. Hence, he is obedient to you and tries to please you. Meanwhile, the other one has feelings for you. After hurting you, he can only make up for it and be responsible for you."Both of them will only take you more and more seriously. They hold their hearts in front of you, but by your hesitance, you are only stabbing each of them in the heart." Alex concluded.Amelia's face was pale as she looked at Alex in disbelief. She couldn't believe that Alex would say such things."Alex, you … No, I …" Amelia wanted to explain, but Alex wouldn't listen.What she said next was even more hurtful."Don't deny i
"What if I said that I want you and Eric to cut contact from now on?"Amelia was a little dazed.She should have guessed that the reason why Alex was so agitated was because the woman had a vague relationship with the man even though she was married.Although she should have expected such a request, Amelia was still a little surprised that Alex actually said it aloud."I can assure you that I have no affection for him. I'll avoid meeting him in the future. However, it's a bit difficult to cut off contact with him …" Amelia said."I knew that you were a bitch in nature, I knew you wouldn't agree!" Alex's expression changed as she interrupted Amelia. "You can leave. From now on, we're no longer friends." Alex turned around and refused to look at her.Even with Alex's actions earlier, Amelia couldn't believe that her best friend actually said that they would no longer be friends in the future.Amelia remembered when she first arrived at Sableton, the first person she got to know
After stepping out from Alex's house, Amelia still couldn't believe what had happened.Looking at the changing scenery in front of her, Amelia smiled bitterly.Even her best friend was about to become a stranger to her.Amelia's steps were heavy and she felt as if there were thousands of pounds of stones tied to her feet.Amelia didn't know how she got home. She only remembered that when she opened the door, she couldn't help crying after seeing Liam's panicked look.Liam was worried, not knowing what was wrong with Amelia.He quickly held her shoulders and said, "Lia, what's wrong? What happened? Didn't you go to see Alex? Why're you crying? Is she angry with you? I'll take you to her tomorrow and I'll speak up for you. Please stop crying!"Unexpectedly, Amelia cried even harder upon hearing his words. She threw herself into his arms and shook her head vigorously.She didn't want Liam to go to Alex to speak up for her. However, she couldn't even complete a single sentence, so
Liam didn't know what Amelia was thinking, but he was happy to hear that she was willing to go to the company with him.As she had promised, early next morning, Amelia tidied herself up and followed Liam to the Prescott Group in an inconspicuous outfit.When the receptionist at the front desk saw her coming with Liam, her eyes shone with surprise.Amelia still recognized her and greeted her with a smile. At this, the receptionist became even more excited as she looked back and forth between Amelia and Liam.In the end, the excitement of seeing her idol defeated her rationality. Without looking at Liam's expression, she quickly asked, "Lia, are you working today?"Amelia shook her head and gestured for her to be silent. "It's a private matter. Please keep it a secret for me."The receptionist became even more excited and she quickly nodded. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else. Will you come again in the future?"Her burning gaze made Liam a little unhappy. Amelia was his wom
As soon as Amelia spoke, Liam's attention was attracted. He didn't even continue reading the document and simply looked up at Amelia."If you like it, I'll give it to you," he said.However, Amelia was not used to using a fountain pen when writing, and she didn't know much about it either. She just simply didn't want Liam to look at Nina.Amelia shook her head and said, "Forget it. I just think it looks good."While speaking, she paid attention to Nina's expression.An unspoken look of displeasure flashed across Nina's face, as if she was dissatisfied with Amelia for disturbing their conversation."You've been working for two hours. Are you tired? Why don't you take a rest first?" Amelia asked.Liam was not actually tired, but upon hearing her words, he felt that she might be bored. Hence, he closed the document and said, "That sounds good."As Liam closed the document, Nina naturally couldn't stay hunched over anymore. She stood up straight and said, "Mr. Prescott, this docume
Jealous?Amelia was stunned for a moment. Then, she said a little uncomfortably, "Who said I'm jealous?"She planned to go back to the sofa, but Liam wrapped his arms around her waist.Amelia's body instantly froze. Liam had hugged her yesterday, but that was a special situation. This was the first time he had made such an intimate move."Lia, I'm very happy," Liam said.Even though Amelia denied it, Liam could feel that she was unhappy that Nina appeared in front of him in such an outfit.Amelia was bothered by Nina, which meant that she still cared about him.Liam was happy that Amelia was jealous.Then, he said, "I'll also be jealous if I see you with other men."Upon hearing his words, Amelia was stunned again. Then, she suddenly felt her heart ache.She slowly lifted her hand, intending to place it on Liam's back. But just then, Nina came in with the coffee."Mr. Prescott, Ms. Jenson, your coffee," Nina said. She had a perfect smile on her face, as if she hadn't seen th
