Love in Prime Years novel Chapter 56

Worrying about Amelia’s condition, Sapphire wanted to take the day off and stay in Willow Alley to spend time with her.

But Serena was constantly pestering at her and tracked her down first thing in the morning. Serena then yelled and hit Sapphire to force her to go to work.

Sapphire didn’t want the already depressed Amelia to be more upset because of Serena, so she chose to go to work.

Lillian found Amelia’s apartment holding a box just after Sapphire left.

Serena dragged Sapphire away hurriedly just now and was really not kind enough to close Amelia’s door, so Lillian just entered the apartment directly.

Amelia’s apartment in Willow Alley was a double-storey. By the time Lillian got in the door, she wasn’t downstairs but in Leigh’s room upstairs.

Lillian saw Amelia who was huddling herself in the corner and looked miserable as soon as she opened the door.

The cut in Amelia’s forehead had been simply dealt with by Serena, but she still got patches of blood on her clothes and hadn’t changed yet. She looked absolutely miserable and terrible at this point.

Looking at Amelia, the corner of Lillian’s mouth quirked up subconsciously.

But thinking about why she was here today, Lillian still acted like she was extremely sad.

Holding the box in her hand tightly, Lillian walked elegantly in high heels.

“Amelia, what on earth happened to you?”

Lillian then waltzed to Amelia and looked at her condescendingly like she was just a petty ant.

“My dear sister, I know that you’re depressed because Leigh had that accident, but you’ve got to take care of yourself. How can you live after if you wrecked your body now? Both Lawrence and I will feel sorry for you!”

Amelia felt terrible and just wanted to ignore Lillian, so she just said to her coldly, “Lillian, get the fuck out. You’re not welcomed here!”

“Don’t welcome me, huh?” Lillian’s voice didn’t sound angry but was actually pretty sweet. “My dear sister, I can understand that you don’t welcome me, but don’t you want to welcome your Leigh home?”

Amelia immediately sensed that Lillian was suggesting something else. Right when she wanted to question her, Lillian handed her the box that she was carrying.

“My dear sister, I brought Leigh back!”

Hearing Lillian’s words, Amelia immediately grabbed the box but found that it was dreadfully light.

That box was not that small, but if Leigh was in it, it can’t be that light like a piece of paper.

Lillian was messing with her!

Lillian seemed to have figured out what Amelia was thinking and sneered, “Amelia, are you thinking that this box is too small for Leigh and I’m messing with you?”

“Amelia, I’m not joking. Your Leigh is really in this box. But... it’s not carrying his body nor his ashes, but his...”

While saying this, Lillian had already opened the box. It turned out that the box was filled with pieces of blood-covered broken fabrics.

Amelia can easily recognize that fabric which was in Leigh’s clothes when he was thrown down the cliff.

Amelia wanted to touch those fabrics and feel Leigh again, but she just can’t even lift them no matter how hard she tried.

Lillian was still continuing, “Amelia, do you know why can I just bring you these broken fabrics, not Leigh’s body or ashes?”

“Well, because he was already eaten alive by some wild beasts down the cliff. Lawrence was afraid that you might faint seeing his bloody flesh, so he just asked me to give you these fabrics.”
