As Amelia kneeled, Kayla laughed with delight, while Paul frowned and the others looked on as if they were watching a show. And Kevin didn’t look worried or anything.
Only James, leaning against the sofa, looked down at her like a king with the power to k ill.
Amelia couldn’t help but think of the hundreds of days and nights they had spent together, but suddenly it all felt like it wasn’t worth it.
She thought she could leave with dignity, but she had to let go of her pride and please him.
Perhaps this was the cru el reality of their different social statuses. She had slept with him for five years and was destined to be trampled under his feet.
However, Amelia knew that she was about to leave this world and that there were only a few months left to endure. With this thought, she found a sense of calm. She knelt down, poured the wine, and handed the glass to James.
James stretched out his slender fingers and took the wine glass.
Just as Amelia thought he would drink it, he raised the glass and slowly poured the red wine over her head. As it slid down the tip of her hair, it stained her pale face, thin neck, and long dress.
She looked down at the wine slowly dripping onto her hand, then lifted her eyes in disbelief to see James, who regarded her with icy contempt.
“You are so cheap.”
His voice was so cold that it made Amelia shiver uncontrollably.
Clenching her fists and biting her lower lip, she stared at James without blinking, as if she wanted to bore a hol e in him.
However, James didn’t care at all. He picked up his handkerchief and wiped his fingers.
To Amelia, James’ actions were like a knife stabbing into her heart. He had splashed wine on her and called her cheap because he thought she was di rty. This was his revenge.
Amelia really wanted to ask him, we are no longer together, why does he still care if she is di rty or not?
But she didn’t dare to say it out loud. She hadn’t gotten rid of Kevin yet. If she provoked James again, she couldn’t afford the outcome.
After tossing the handkerchief aside, James got up and left without looking back. The bodyguards in the room quickly followed him.
