No Sex for Six Years Because of Her? I'm Done novel Chapter 203

He leaned down slightly, and his voice dropped even lower.

“Amelia, don’t make me force the truth out of you.”

There was no anger in his voice, but it was more frightening than any harsh words. “Why are you really avoiding me?”

That single sentence pulled Amelia’s thoughts straight back to the dark closet at Rowe Villa.

She clearly remembered what had happened that day.

In that cramped space, his tall body had completely surrounded her, his warm breath brushing against her ear.

He had used the same firm, unquestionable tone back then, holding her in place and demanding answers.

The feeling of being fully controlled, with nowhere to escape, made panic flood her all over again.

But she didn’t know how to say it.

Was she supposed to tell him she was avoiding his sudden care–and her own growing desire?

That was ridiculous.

After forcing down the panic in her heart, Amelia chose the clumsiest way to hide the truth.

She lifted her head and tried to make her eyes look calm. “No, you’re really overthinking it. I’m not avoiding you. I’ve just had too many things going on lately, and my leg is injured, so I’m feeling stressed.

“Right now, I just want my leg to heal as soon as possible so I can go back to work and catch up on everything I missed.”

Mason watched her quietly, his eyes like a mirror that clearly reflected her lies and forced calm.

It was as if he could see through all her masks.

But in the end, he gave up on questioning her further.

Maybe her face looked too pale, and he felt there was no point in pushing anymore.

He slowly straightened up, and the heavy pressure in the room faded with his movement.

“Let’s hope so,” he said lightly. His tone showed no emotion, but the warning in his words was impossible to miss.

He gently closed the door behind him.

Amelia’s

gaze drifted to the nightstand without her meaning to.

The hardcover design books he had brought glowed softly under the warm yellow light.

The edges of the pages were clean and new, carrying a faint scent of fresh ink.

He had chosen these especially for her.

Amelia reached out and gently touched the book cover.

The cool, smooth feeling traveled from her fingertips, yet it felt like a warm stream flowing through her confused and tangled heart.

She knew very well that she should push him away.

Mason’s heart belonged only to Ms. Jewell.

She was the person he truly cherished, the one he treated with real tenderness.

And Amelia was only Ethan’s wife, Mason’s “adopted sister,” a family member in name only.

She should treat Mason like an older brother and never allow any improper thoughts to grow.

But reason was one thing, and emotions were another.

She couldn’t stop herself from craving the warmth and sense of safety he gave her.

When Ethan and Hannah had driven her into a corner, it was Mason who reached out and offered her protection.

It was also he who quietly helped her out of trouble when she was at her most miserable.

Maybe people became especially weak when they were hurt, which was why it was so easy to lose control.

Amelia thought tiredly, trying to find a reasonable excuse for her feelings.

Suddenly, her phone on the nightstand vibrated.

It was Amanda calling.

Amelia steadied herself and answered. “Hello, Amanda?”

“Amelia! Are you free right now?” Amanda sounded unusually anxious.

“I am. What’s wrong?”

“I just sent you a news link. Go look at it now!”

“Okay,” Amelia replied. She hung up and immediately opened WhatsApp.

The headline Amanda sent was very eye–catching.

“Rising Star Designer Hannah Shows Stunning New Work at National Newcomer Design Competition!”
