“I’m fine. It was just an accident. I didn’t expect to be so unlucky.”
Amelie quickly comforted her, not wanting Belen to keep worrying about herself.
“Are you kidding? Do you know what happened to you? Either way, I will never forgive those who hurt you, and Rex already knows this. I’m afraid… I’m afraid he’s furious right now.”
“What? My brother knows?”
Amelie got really worried.
If Rex knew about this, his other older brothers probably wouldn’t let it all end like this.
“You know, your brothers are very smart, it’s hard to hide it from them.”
Amelie took a deep breath, already able to guess what would happen next.
“Well, even though it’s already like this, I still hope you can persuade my brother not to do anything, I have already had my own plans.”
“You have plans? What are your plans? Do you want to go on like this forever without achieving anything?”
Amelie disagreed with Belen’s decision.
“Belen, I know you care about me too, but if there is no way to achieve the goal, I don’t intend to…”
Before she finished speaking, someone knocked the door. She immediately fell silent.
“It seems that Ms. Cisneros has guests here.”
It was Lamont’s voice.
“Lamont?”
Belen saw that Lamont’s expression immediately became very unnatural,
“I didn’t expect Ms. Cisneros and Ms. Patrick to know each other?”
Lamont walked to the bed and said deliberately.
“Mr. Byron, this doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, does it?”
Belen’s words were harsh, and she was not happy about his arrival.
“I know Ms. Patrick doesn’t like me, but Ms. Cisneros and I are partners, so we should know each other.”
Belen really wanted to argue with Lamont, but because of Amelie’s presence, she had no choice but to hold her emotions and force herself not to get angry so easily.
“Did Mr. Byron come to see me specifically?”
Amelie glanced sideways at Lamont, her eyes squinting slightly.
Although she was very grateful to him for saving her, Amelie did not forget what happened that night.
“Belen, I want to eat an apple, could you please buy me some?”
“Apple?”
Belen was stunned, but still nodded, got up and left the room.
Lamont sat down by Amelie’s bed and handed her hot water.
“Drink some hot water.”
“Thanks.”
She answered a bit unnaturally.
“So who are you?”
He finally asked the question he had been thinking about for a long time.
“Sorry, Mr. Byron, I don’t understand what you mean.”
“You don’t understand? Since you still don’t want to say it, I won’t ask any more questions. However, you’re injured now! You’ve missed the board of directors.”
“What? Missed it, my project plan!”
Amelie’s first reaction was to look for her bag,
But there was no bag around.
“Where’s my bag? How did it disappear?”
Amelie asked nervously,
“Don’t worry, your plan is well protected, and I’ve already given it to Willard.”
Lamont reacted indifferently.
“Okay then, that’s good.”
“So have you ever wondered who is behind the scenes? Maybe the two of us can work together to defeat the Aylward Group.”
“Together? Why do you think that I will cooperate with you? Moreover, why should I target the Aylward Group? Perhaps you are thinking too much. In any case, the Aylward Group is also my A party, and I cannot take action against them.”
Amelie directly refused his offer.
She knew that Lamont was testing her, and she tried not to fall for his tricks.
“Ms. Cisneros, it’s been a long time. Why are you still being stubborn? How many times have I saved your life? Do you still think I’m using you””
Lamont stared blankly.
Amelie was silent, she hesitated.
“Although I always feel that you are very similar to the person in my dreams, I am also very sober and know that you are not her. Even so, I still can’t control myself to protect you, so I do everything to make you full of vigilance, I understand.”
Lamont said it really earnestly.
“Really? Who is the person in your dreams? What makes you not to forget her?”
“Yes…”
“Anyways, I don’t think it’s real!”
The door of the ward suddenly opened and Coffey entered.
“Coffey?”
Amelie quickly looked away, drinking water by herself.
“Cousin? I didn’t expect you to get the news so early.”
“Really? Is this considered too early? It’s been two days now, and I, as her fiancé, was the last to know. I am very angry”.
His tone of voice was extremely negative. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“I just didn’t want you to worry.”
Amelie quickly explained, but Coffey didn’t listen to her at all.
Lamont, on the other hand, seemed very calm looking at his phone.
“Is that true, or are you being threatened?”
While speaking, Coffey looked at Lamont, who was next to him, and his eyes were full of hatred.
“You are too worried.”
“Cousin, don’t you care too much about your elder cousin’s future wife, or you just have other plans for her?”
“Enough, Coffey! What are you talking about?”
Amelie didn’t want to complicate things and growled angrily, hoping to stop Coffey’s outrageous questions.
“I don’t think I’m talking nonsense anymore. Well, let’s pretend I haven’t said anything. Lamont, as I’m here, you can go now.”
Coffey gave the order to evict the guest.
Lamont just grinned and said nothing, his eyes were always on Amelie.
“Then I’ll come to you another day. Think about what I told you.”
The door slammed shut and Amelie breathed a sigh of relief.
“I said don’t talk nonsense again! You just nearly ruined my plan! You know it?”
Amelie said so displeased that she didn’t even want to look at Coffey.
“Whatever your plan, all I know is that you came through the hell! Amelie! You must be reasonable! You told me once that you would never have any other feelings for Lamont! But now? What kind of cooperation do you want to have with him?”
He was very emotional, that even the fuse irritated him.
“There’s no cooperation. I will always remember what I said before. You don’t have to keep reminding me about it.”
She was so indifferent.
The relationship between them seemed to be getting very serious again.
“I agreed with the arsonist on the investigation. From now on, I will send someone to protect your safety.”
In the end, Coffey compromised, his tone softened, and he was not going to continue arguing with Amelie.
“No, no need, it can’t be prevented. Since they want to kill me, they will not miss a single chance. The only way is to voluntarily take her out.”
“Voluntarily take out?”
