Love in Prime Years novel Chapter 22

Rufus kicked her so hard that Amelia directly knelt on the ground.

Rufus hugged Madeleine gently, “Sweetheart, I ask her to apologize to you! I have told you I won’t let anyone bully you!”

“Sweetheart, I will not let anyone bully you again when we get out!”

Looking at Rufus leaving without caring about her, Amelia thought of what he said to her many times in the dungeon. At this time, Amelia’s vision was blurred by tears.

She felt everything was ironic for her. She was forced to kneel twice by the man she loved and her friend who had shared weal and woe with her.

The people she cared about most always trampled on her dignity relentlessly.

Amelia had a severe pain in her knee and she began to have a stomachache. It was long after Rufus and Madeleine leaving that she barely stood up with the support of the wall beside.

She walked down the busy street like a walking corpse, and suddenly she felt there was no light on the way ahead.

It was really hard for her to have one million dollars before she died.

But she would cure Leigh and make him have a healthy life even if she had to fight with the fate.

After wandering like a ghost on the road for more than half an hour, Amelia finally returned to Willow Alley.

She went back to check out if there was anything else that she could sell for Leigh’s medical fee.

Willow Alley was owned by Lawrence, so she could not sell it. But she could sell something which was bought by her in the second-hand market for some money.

As soon as she opened the door, Amelia saw Lawrence sitting on the sofa in the living room. He enshroud by the light, so she could not see any brightness on him, only the darkness and ruthlessness that could engulf everything.

Seeing Amelia, Lawrence raised his head suddenly. There were suffocating fury and anger in his eyes.

Without waiting for her to speak, he got up and slammed a pile of photos in his hand on her face.

"Amelia, how shameless you are!"

He grabbed Amelia’s neck wildly, “I had sex with you yesterday, and you can’t wait to find another man today. Can’t you live without a man?”

“Lawrence, I don’t know what you are talking about!”

Amelia prised his fingers from her neck. She was so speechless to Lawrence that he would grad her neck almost every time he saw her.

Maybe it was because she was misunderstood by him for so many times and she was numb, Amelia was not as sad as she used to be. She thought with bitterness that maybe she would become a giraffe one day, since her neck was grabbed so many times.

“You don’t know?” Lawrence smiled with great chill, “After being played and thrown away by Jimmy and now you are hooking up with his elder brother. Amelia, how shameless you are!”

“I am not!” Amelia shook her head heavily, “Rufus is my friend and we are not in a relationship as you think!”

“Hum!” Lawrence sneered, showing his disbelief of what Amelia had said.

At this moment, Amelia saw the picture on the ground. Those photos were taken when she met Rufus in the underground garage tonight.
