Runaway Wife Chapter 55 Don't You Have Anything to Ask Me?
Amelia didn't want to go to Prescott Manor. Thinking of Ember's disdain and disregard of her, Amelia felt very discomfited. Ember's behavior told her at all times that she and Liam were from different worlds and that she was reaching above her class by marrying Liam.When it was time to get off work, Liam still hadn't responded to her message. Even so, she knew that she couldn't escape this.Because she didn't want to head to Prescott Manor, Amelia dragged her feet as she cleared her things. Once she was out, Liam was already getting impatient waiting for her."Everyone else has already left, and you're the only one at the back of the herd. Did Farah get you to stay for overtime?"Amelia shook her head. Liam started the car and gave a cold laugh. "Don't look like you're so unwilling to come along. My mother doesn't want to see you either!""Then why do you want me to go?" she asked lowly. Even though she had spoken softly, Liam still heard her."Have you seen the latest news on
Runaway Wife Chapter 56 A Child of the Prescott Family
"Why did you bring her here?" Ember's smile immediately vanished upon seeing Amelia.Amelia's heart quivered as she looked over at Liam. She found him unaffected as he smiled and led Ember to sit on the couch. "No matter what, she's still my wife. We've been married for so long already, so it's natural to bring her here more often." Amelia felt dejected seeing Ember and Liam so close. She sat to one side and didn't manage to get a word in edgewise. Ember ignored her while Liam kept chatting with Ember. Neither of them gave her the time of day.There were three of them there, but Amelia felt completely alone.The two had a lively conversation, but that had nothing to do with her at all."What are you sitting there for? Since you're here, go help out in the kitchen!" Because Ember didn't like Amelia, she wasn't willing to look at her even if she was just sitting there without speaking.Getting up, Amelia walked toward the kitchen. "Madam Amelia, we don't need your help here. Ple
Runaway Wife Chapter 57 Incurably Stupid
That night, Amelia and Liam stayed over at Prescott Manor. The lamp by the bed glowed with an orange light that filled the room with warmth and amorousness. Amelia didn't want to deal with Liam, so she got into bed very early. Just as she was half asleep, she sensed movement behind her.Liam got into bed. Seeing that his wife had her back facing him, amusement flashed in his eyes."How do you think I should deal with the matter of Ava?"Amelia's body went stiff. She shut her eyes and kept quiet, pretending to be asleep and not to have heard."Since there's no sign of you getting pregnant, my mother's worried about your health and wants me to take you for a check-up. If you really can't give birth, she wants you to raise Ava's child."Now, Amelia was even more scared to move. Ember had never liked her. If she was really infertile and couldn't give birth, she might be asked to divorce Liam.Liam didn't care if Amelia gave a reaction and kept talking. "My mother doesn't put
Runaway Wife Chapter 58 You'd Better Divorce Him
Liam always did what he said he would. In the next few days, all the renowned media outlets were reporting on Ava's exploits and how well Liam treated her.Ava had received sponsorships, participated in game shows, and accompanied Liam to events. With everything going on, people were saying that Ava's pregnancy had gotten her Liam's favor and doting. Seeing this news, Amelia had to shove down the pain she felt. Like her colleagues, she had to think about how to make the best of this news and get something out of it for the talents under Farah. "Since Ava's pregnant, I'm sure she won't be acting for much longer. We have to make use of this opportunity. As long as we can hitch on Ava's popularity, then our own talents will certainly get their chance too."Amelia felt a little discomfited when she heard Farah's words."Amelia, if you're not feeling well, maybe you should go home and rest for a few days?""No need, I'm fine!" Amelia quickly shook her head. She couldn't neglect he
Runaway Wife Chapter 59 Loving Another Man
What a clichéd manner of flirting, and Amelia had been the one to flirt with him. The man Amelia had bumped into smiled. He raised his hand and flicked his finger against Amelia's forehead. "Yes, we've met. Do you remember now?"Amelia looked at him in confusion as she took a step backward.The man reached his hand out again. "If not, I'm going to flick you again!"Blinking, Amelia covered her forehead with both hands. Her face was filled with happy surprise as she said, "You're my upperclassman! Shawn Jackson!"The man laughed but still reached out toward her head. Amelia quickly covered her entire face. Then, she heard him laugh as a hand caressed her head, messing up her hair. Just as she was about to beg for mercy, the hand started smoothing her hair back out."Silly Billy, my name is Oscar Jackson now—not Shawn Jackson. You'd better remember this."Amelia felt a bit bad. She had called his name wrong and caused everyone to tease him with a nickname spun from the mistake.
Runaway Wife Chapter 60 You're My Only Man
"Enough!" said Liam coldly. "You're the one carrying the baby. No one will stop you if you want to have an abortion.""Liam!" Ava looked at him in disbelief, never having expected that he would say such a thing. "You know who this child belongs to. Don't you remember? This child … exists because of what happened that night!" Ava explained tearfully. "You're my only man, and I have no one else!""Enough. Get out!"Liam massaged his temples. Before, he'd thought that Ava wasn't obedient enough. Now, it seemed that she wanted more than she could chew. She wanted so much that it surpassed what he had even expected.Ava wanted to say something more but didn't dare to when she saw Liam's expression. Though unhappy, she left.The second the door closed behind her, her eyes shone with a calculative light.Although Amelia didn't contact Liam often, she was always in Liam's heart. His interest in her had never waned, which gave Ava a strong sense of danger.It hadn't been easy for her to
Runaway Wife Chapter 61 What's Your Relationship With Him
After a 20-minute break, they went back to shooting."What's your relationship with him?"Amelia's body went rigid when she heard this. She turned to look at the man beside her, who had shown up at some unknown point. "Mr. Prescott, are you asking me?"Liam scoffed. "Is there anyone else here?"Amelia looked to the side. The few staff members who had been sitting with her just now had already left."As you can see, Oscar is here to shoot a commercial. I'm here to take care of him during shooting.""He has an assistant, so he doesn't need you to take care of him. Last time, it was Vincent Borris, and now, it's Oscar Jackson. Why do you love throwing yourself at people?" he mocked.As far as Liam knew, Amelia had never even met Oscar before. It should have only been a few days since they started working together. Did she really have to be so thoughtful toward him?Thinking of this, the words he said became even more cruel. "I let you move back, but you didn't want to. It seems th
Runaway Wife Chapter 62 A Good Mood
Amelia didn't want to return to Riverbay Residence, but Liam was downstairs waiting for her when she got off work. She got into the car huffily, thinking that she could still talk things out with him."You know that I need to go to work. If I move back, I might disturb you if I have to bring work home."Liam replied, "There are many empty rooms at Riverbay Residence."Amelia responded, "Riverbay Residence is too out of the way. It's inconvenient for me when I have to go to work …"Liam shot back, "I have to go to work every day too, and I leave from there as well."Amelia found herself speechless."Stop thinking about these unimportant things. Move back today. Otherwise, don't think about keeping your job." Liam didn't want to keep arguing with her and brought up the matter she was most worried about.Amelia kept silent. After some thought, she asked carefully, "It was because of you that I never found a job before this, isn't it?"Glancing at her, Liam burst out laughing. "Bas

After returning home, Eric's mood remained gloomy.Hannah opened a bottle of wine and poured a glass for him. "Want some?"Eric glanced at her, took the glass, and gulped it down in one go.Hannah then quickly refilled his glass, and Eric drank everything again.Hannah chuckled lightly as she poured the wine for him. "Although drinking is bad for you, sometimes, it can be a way to drown your sorrows. But don't overdo it.""Why should I be sorrowful? What do I have to be sorrowful for?" Eric mocked himself and finished the wine in his glass. He then grabbed the bottle and poured himself another glass.As Hannah watched him, she couldn't help but say, "You indeed have nothing to be sorrowful about. You're quite fortunate compared to many ordinary people. "Take me, for example. I had to marry someone who doesn't love me just to survive. Even the parents I'd known for over 20 years were not really my parents."Eric smirked. "That was of your own doing. You insisted on marrying me

Alex was resting on the bed when her phone rang.Seeing the name on the screen, she hesitated for a moment before answering."Have you made up your mind? When are you going to the hospital?"Hearing this, Alex chuckled. "I thought you called to say that you regretted your words. So, you just want to remind me to go to the hospital."Eric's voice was calm and distant as he said, "Delaying it will only harm you.""Yeah, that's why I've already gone to the hospital," Alex replied.Eric paused, seemingly surprised by her swift action. "Why didn't you call me? I could've accompanied you."Alex scoffed. "Since you don't care about me or the baby in my belly, why bother going to the hospital with me? Don't worry, even if I die on the operating table during the abortion, it's my own fault."Eric frowned. "You know I didn't mean that.""Yes, I know. You just said it out of guilt. So what if I purposely said that? Why should I feel sad alone? I want to provoke you, to make you feel trou

After the banquet, Liam drove Amelia home."Thanks for helping me today," Amelia said.This was the first time they were together alone since they'd met the shy man.Liam smirked. "You don't have to thank me. I just spoke the truth and defended my own marriage."Amelia frowned. "What do you mean?""I meant exactly that!""Stop the car and explain yourself!"Liam then parked the car as instructed. Then, Amelia spoke seriously, "We've already divorced, but now you're saying that we're still married. What do you mean exactly?"Liam smiled. "Of course, it means that we're still husband and wife. What else could it be?""You!" Amelia was frustrated. "Can you speak plainly?"What exactly did Liam mean? Amelia was confused.Other people might not know, but Amelia was aware that they were divorced.

Runaway Wife Chapter 792 Proposal
Amelia didn't think Karen would act so quickly, and she found it difficult to refuse her after looking at her warm gaze."Mr. Prescott, the Lancasters have prepared a banquet to welcome Madam into the family. And they've invited many people, including some previous partners of the Lancaster Group and some members of the Prescotts. "However, we still haven't received an invitation. Do you think…" Gio was reporting to Liam about Amelia in the office.Liam snorted. "The Lancasters must have other intentions to organize the banquet. If they still want me to spare them and Leona, they shouldn't use this method to corner me. They're being so public about things and are putting so much effort into this banquet to force me to attend it."Gio looked puzzled.Liam continued, "Charles is a cunning old man. He begged me to let go of the Lancasters. But when I disagreed, he tried to approach Lia. He never thought she would refuse too. So, he's still furious about this. He's reluctant to give
Runaway Wife Chapter 791 Pushing Her Away
The Lancasters' businesses had been continuously taken away, and Leona was nowhere to be found. This frustrated Charles."As expected, people who didn't grow up in this family are so unreliable. It's such a simple matter that could've been solved had she said anything about it, but she just won't help!" Charles paced around the living room while complaining about his daughter.Meanwhile, Karen looked a little worn out as she sat on the couch. She frowned and said, "Stop pacing around. You're making me dizzy!"Charles glanced at her. "I'm just too worried. If the company doesn't get new orders, we won't be able to pay salaries, and we'll lose our employees. If that really happens, the company will go bankrupt!"Despite the urgency of the situation, he still listened to Karen and sat across from her.Hannah looked at the anxious Charles and sneered, saying, "Dad, don't you understand? Liam's just venting his anger on us. He won't trouble us again once his anger dissipates.""Of c
