Amelia pinched her bloodless fingertips, looking down at the phone screen until the screen light went out, the phone was always unanswered.
She bit her lower lip lightly, her pretty lip shape was slightly distorted by the bite, and her cold face looked very fragile.
For the first time, Levi didn't answer her calls.
Because of the woman Alfred said?
Who is she?
Amelia's mind was a little irritated, and for the first time she felt that things were out of her control.
Five years, why it had a problem now?
She was in an irritable mood, and called again.
This time the phone was picked up, the man's low, cold, dry voice came through the phone, softened by the current tone, sounding indescribably low and gentle, making Amelia's heart beat faster.
With some aggravation and resentment, she muttered in a small voice, "Why didn't you answer my call?"
Levi looked at Ruby who had already fallen asleep, his cold expression was softened by the dim light, and his eyes were not as cold and sharp as they always were, but had more tenderness.
Listening to Amelia's clearly whining words, he tugged at the corners of his mouth before replying softly, "I was occupied, what's wrong? Who upset you?"
It was his usual tone of voice, and Amelia felt steadied, without the panic and unease she had felt before.
"I always feel uneasy in my heart when I don't find you. Levi, we ......"
Amelia wanted to ask Levi when exactly he would marry her.
It had been five years, and he hadn't had intention, always making Amelia unable to figure out what he really thought in his heart.
"Good girl, now not, when the time comes, I will naturally bring you back." All of Levi's patience was used on Amelia.
Since he had slept with her five years ago, he had to be responsible for her.
After all, his mother's vocal teachings before she died were still ringing in his ears.
Ralph can be a scumbag and irresponsible, but he can't.
"But I'm afraid, you're so good and so dazzling, surrounded by so many girls. I have nothing but you, if you don't want me, what am I going to do?"
Amelia's voice was with worry.
Levi looked aghast before slowly exhaling a breath, "There won't be anyone else, just you."
That was the promise he made to Amelia.
"I haven't seen you in a long time, can you take the time to meet me? I can't even meet my boyfriend. I don't know how I'm going to answer when people ask me." With this promise from Levi, a smug smile surfaced on her face, and she squeezed her phone again, petulantly pampering herself with Levi.
"The day after tomorrow, not lately." Only after Levi had appeased Amelia did he hang up the phone.
Once he turned around, he saw that Ruby, who was originally sleeping against the back of the chair, had woken up, and at that moment, those dark eyes were looking at himself sullenly.
Levi raised his eyebrows and looked at Ruby, "Do you have the habit of eavesdropping?"
