Semua Bab Runaway Wife: Bab 761 - Bab 770

"What now? Don't you want to leave me?" Liam asked with a smile when he saw Amelia hesitating to sign the document in front of her.Amelia lifted her chin and glared at Liam. "I can't wait to leave you." She then bitterly mocked herself. She had been the one pushing for a divorce, yet she was the one who was hesitating at the very last minute.While Liam opposed the idea at first, when he made up his mind to sign the divorce paper, he did it decisively. Perhaps because he already found another person, even though Liam had told Amelia that he was forced to marry Leona.Over the past few days, Amelia had been thinking. What if Leona lied? What if the proof that Luke had wanted to kill Leona never existed? In that case, Liam would never recover the proof even if he married Leona. Would he divorce Leona then? Or would he not?Amelia shook her head, trying to push away those things in her head. She clenched the pen in her hand. The moment the tip touched the paper, Amelia felt her heart

Liam came home when at 6:30 P.M. The sun had already set. As soon as he entered, May asked if she should start preparing dinner.Liam waved at her dismissively. "I have all the ingredients with me. I'll cook with Amelia today. You may go home now."May thought that Liam was doing this to mend his relationship with Amelia, so she nodded. She then removed the apron she had on.Meanwhile, Amelia frowned when she overheard their conversation. What was Liam trying to do? Liam first went to the study. When he came out, he grabbed Amelia's hands. Amelia tried to break free but to no avail.Liam said with a smile, "I haven't had your cooking for a while now. Can you cook for me tonight?"Amelia declined right away. "I can't cook, and you don't like my cooking anyway. May hasn't gone far. I can ask her to come back.""Just this once, please?" begged Liam, his husky voice tinged with disappointment.Amelia shook her head. "I don't feel like cooking today."Back then, Amelia never cooke

Despite claiming that his return date was uncertain, Liam came back three days later. "Didn't you say you went on a business trip?" Amelia was surprised to see Liam back.Liam nodded. "Yeah, and now I'm back."Amelia gazed at Liam silently. "I came here as soon as I landed. I'm starving now. Do you have something to eat?"Amelia glanced at the luggage by the doorstep. "You could have gone to Lily's or your parents' place. You'll be fed there," Amelia protested. Despite her words, she nonetheless went to the kitchen to check if there was something for him."Well, we didn't know you were coming back, so May only cooked for two. We ate and she cleaned everything up. There's no food in the kitchen. Why don't you get takeout?"Liam entered the kitchen and opened the fridge. "I can make do with some instant noodles."Amelia was rendered speechless by how comfortable Liam made himself at her home. "Liam, have you forgotten something?"Liam looked at Amelia, surprised. "Have I?""We

Over the next few days, Amelia busied herself with preparing for her departure. She invited Oscar for a small meet-up at Interfleur."Congratulations, you are free." Oscar gave Amelia a box with a smile. "Here's a present to celebrate your freedom."Amelia smirked and opened the box. It contained a watch and a business card. "This is …" The name Tolkin was on the card. He was a screenwriter too. Could he be the Tolkin Amelia knew?"You love writing script, and you're in the industry yourself. You must know who he is. Tolkin is a critically acclaimed screenwriter. He's produced several award-winning movies."Amelia nodded enthusiastically. "Yes, he's my idol. His works are so profound and poignant. Many film producers want to buy his scripts. All his films are very successful. His arthouse films can generate as much revenue as a blockbuster!"Amelia's giddiness told Oscar that he had picked the right present. "I have received the remuneration from Miracle, which I used to purchas

After work, Liam sat in his office for a while before driving to Prescott Manor. Looking at Ember's photo, he subconsciously clenched his fist."The past is in the past. You should let it go. Forget those unhappy memories and live a good life. I've seen her behave these three years and sincerely want to live with you," James said, patting Liam on the shoulder.Liam didn't turn around as he replied indifferently, "I can't let it go, and I don't believe she's innocent.""But you've been investigating her for so long, and there's still no evidence that she harmed Luke, right? Moreover, all the clues point to Luke killing her. Since she's willing to move on, why don't you? You've always treated her badly," James said. As he recalled the past, he sighed. "Be careful. She might reach a breaking point and do something extreme, rendering all your efforts wasted. We were wrong from the get-go. Luke is gone, and there's no need to make such significant sacrifices for his sake.""No! It's n
