Ms. Escape Marrying to Run Fighting to Rise novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 Pretended Not to Hear

Amelia was playing a supporting role in a serious drama.

Stella was also in this production.

Finished

Amelia didn’t chat much with Stella. Whether Stella was acting like a diva or just exhausted, she spent most of her time lying down.

Wrapped in a high-end cashmere scarf with her face covered, she isolated herself from everyone else.

While Stella was busy lying around, the male lead, Matthew Cooper, didn’t seek her out. Instead, he kept finding reasons to talk to Amelia.

Amelia responded politely each time, always maintaining a safe distance.

She was being courteous, but Matthew kept trying to close the gap.

Just as Amelia had stepped back yet again, Benjamin strode over.

“Amelia,” he called, his tone casual. “How much longer?”

Seeing him, Amelia’s eyes instantly lit up.

“Just one more scene. What are you doing here?” she asked.

Benjamin said, “I’ll wait for you

here.”

“Okay,” Amelia then asked, “Was Nina good today?”

Benjamin remained silent.

Amelia paused. Alright, I get it.

She reached out and gave Benjamin’s hand a comforting pat. “I’ll take over when I’m done. You

can rest,”

They spoke quietly about Nina, their voices low but their closeness obvious.

Seeing their intimacy, Matthew, who had been so eager to chat, turned and walked away.

Soon, Amelia finished her final scene, and Benjamin took her back to the car.

Seeing Nina asleep inside, Amelia felt her heart sink.

She asked, “Why is she sleeping now?”

It was past six in the evening. A nap this late meant a rough night ahead.

Finished

Benjamin explained plainly, “She refused to nap at noon. She insisted on sleeping in the car just now. She would have cried if I didn’t let her.”

Amelia sighed.

With that sigh, she knew a long night was inevitable.

Sure enough, late into the night, Benjamin and Amelia had gone from pretending to be asleep to actually drifting off, but Nina was still sitting up in the dark, wide awake.

She climbed down from the bed and went exploring.

She wandered all the way to William’s room.
