Chapter 277
it merely took a short period of time before Amelia regained consciousness. She was given acupuncture therapy during the day, and by evening, she gradually regained consciousness.
When she regained consciousness, she was lying on the bed. Facing the pitch–black room, she was a little. dazed.
“Water,” she softly murmured.
Sophia had been keeping watch by Amelia’s bedside. When she saw Amelia regain consciousness, she was overjoyed. She immediately got up and quickly poured a glass of hot water.
“Mrs. Taylor, you’re finally awake!” she said.
Amelia gulped down half a glass of water before she started to feel more alert.
“What happened to me?” she asked Sophia softly.
She only remembered that she was looking at the news of Olivia’s engagement. Her emotions had fluctuated intensely, and a wave of resentment that she could not suppress surged within her, almost bursting through her chest.
Then, somehow, her vision went dark, and she fainted.
She did not know anything that happened thereafter.
Sophia quickly explained to her everything that had happened during the period that she was
unconscious.
Amelia listened with a stunned expression. She could not help but ask, “Are you saying that Olivia saved me?”
Sophia nodded and said, “That’s right, but she’s particularly heartless. She didn’t want come save you at all. It took a lot of begging from Mr. William and agreeing to many conditions for her to finally come.” “Oh,” Amelia replied as she nodded. She had a listless expression, appearing in a state of being stupefied. She thought to herself, “It turns out that it was Olivia that saved me.”
At the mention of Olivia, Amelia was no longer as excited as before. Instead, she was calm and even somewhat sluggish.
She thought to herself, “It’s so strange. Just before I lost consciousness, I mentioned Olivia with such righteous anger, almost wishing I had not given birth to her.
“Why, after waking up, am I so calm and not angry at all?
“What is even stranger is that I can’t understand my previous emotions, and I don’t know why I hated Olivia so much.
“I seem to have lost my sanity and clouded my judgment. I’m completely not clear–headed, and I’m like a mad person!
“Actually, when I think about it carefully, Olivia may have played a role in causing Emma to be imprisoned, but ultimately, it’s Emma’s own actions that have led to her own imprisonment.
“And as for Samuel, he didn’t act like a father at all. He actually resorted to using public opinion to threaten and pressure his own biological daughter.
“What’s even more difficult for me to accept is that I actually agreed to it!
“Oh golly!” Amelia covered her forehead, wondering why she had done so many foolish things.
From the perspective of innermost thoughts, Olivia was not as important as Emma in Amelia’s heart. After all, Emma had been raised by her side for twenty years, and their bond ran deep.
However, she did not go so far as to hold extreme hatred for Olivia just because she had a preference for
Emma.
Amelia felt that she was somewhat abnormal as she often could not control her emotions.
Sophia was trying to assess Amelia’s emotional state. She told Amelia something to gauge her emotional state. “Mrs. Taylor, Olivia will come again tomorrow to treat you,” she said.
Upon hearing that Olivia would come again, Amelia’s expression became complex.
She believed that she was clear–headed. She considered herself to have a balanced perspective and could objectively evaluate situations.
Be it Emma’s or Samuel’s matter, she believed that Olivia could not be blamed.
However, it could not be said that those matters had nothing to do with Olivia either. After all, if it weren’t for her, Emma and Samuel would not have had any trouble.
Amelia closed her eyes. She seemed to be thinking.
When she opened her eyes again, her eyes no longer held any confusion or clouded emotions.
She had already made a choice.
On one side were Samuel and Emma, and on the other side was Olivia.
Amelia chose to let go of Olivia.
She had more than thirty years of marital bond with Samuel. Although Samuel did not make something of himself and sometimes had a bad temper, he treated her really well.
She thought to herself, “In Evervale, every wealthy family has its share of gossip. This situation applies not only to the four major families. It even applies to those men who are somewhat affluent. They will also have affairs and keep mistresses.
