At William's family home...
The atmosphere was joyous as everyone welcomed grandma.
"Welcome mom. We are glad that you are okay." Said Jason's father.
"Yes mom. We were so worried but thank God you are okay." Liz added.
Grandma Catherine just looked at them coldly and said nothing.
"Lunch is ready. Let us have lunch and we will talk later." James said after seeing that his wife's expression was not right.
"Yeah, mom just came from the hospital. Let's eat first." Liz said.
The family went to the dining area.
...
After lunch, Richard took Amanda to do shopping. They walked around aimlessly just to pass time. Richard wanted to spend more time with Amanda so he gave an excuse of shopping.
They went from shop to shop either to buy or to just take a look. It seemed like Richard was a VIP member in every shop they stepped into. And whenever Amanda saw something that she liked, Richard will immediately pay for it.
She was so embarrassed that she did not want to look at anything anymore. She tried to let him stop but he could not listen. Amanda gave up trying to convince him otherwise.
They were in this particular shop when a voice stopped them.
"Richard is that you?" A female voice called out from behind them gently. Richard and Amanda turned around instinctively at the same time.
They were met with a group of ladies approaching them. The lady infront was wearing a channel dress with a ten inch high heels. She was carrying a blue Gucci handbag in her hand matching perfectly with a her blue dress.
She had on smoky makeup, long eyelashes and her mouth was painted red.
She is not the type of beauty that were enchanting at first glance. But looking at her twice one could not let their eyes off.
Beside her, she was accompanied by four ladies, probably her followers. They were following her from behind and were laughing from time to time.
"Richard, it is really you. I thought that I was mistaken." The lady was called Mandy. She said softly and her eyes softened.
Richard had a frown on his face as he looked at the woman before him coldly.
Amanda could not help but give him a questioning look.
Sensing her gaze, Richard looked at her and smiled gently. But when he turned to look at Mandy, his expression turned gloomy.
"I just came from overseas not long ago and thought of visiting you. I went to your house and uncle said that you rarely visit." Mandy said gently. All this while she had not looked at Amanda even once.
"Ooh. Continue visiting then. I don't care if the old man want to marry another wife. That is upto him to decide. It is none of my business." Richard said coldly.
Mandy's expression instantly fell. Richard was still mad at her. She had gone abroad to give him time to heal but it seems like he was still the same.
"What are you talking about Richard. I take uncle as my own father. How would I think of marrying him. I came back because I was worried about you. How could you talk to me like that." Mandy could not help but feel wronged.
She went forward and wanted to touch Richard but he effortlessly avoided her touch.
Her hand hung in air awkwardly.
