"Levi, you are so kind to me." Holding the bowl of egg noodles happily, Amelia tilted her face and spoke in a delicate manner.
Levi smiled and sat down at the side, "Eat."
It was only when Amelia started eating the noodles.
Levi’s cooking skills are average, not really delicious, but at least edible.
However, as if she was eating some kind of delicacy, Amelia ate up the big bowl of noodles, and burped with satisfaction.
"Levi, I feel really happy." Amelia put her empty bowl down before she looked up at Levi, her face full of shyness.
Levi took the bowl over and got up to walk to the kitchen to clean it while replying, "If you hadn't saved me five years ago, I would have been dead long ago."
The smile on Amelia's face stiffened as she looked at Levi’s back, her gaze rising with resentment.
She clenched her fists for a long time before she could hold back the pent-up anger in her heart.
Five years.
She had been by Levi’s side for five years, yet she was still no match for Ruby's one night five years ago!
Did she just sleep with him once? What was the big deal? Why should she spend five years and not be able to replace Ruby?
The more she thought about it, the more indignant she felt in her heart, barely able to control her twisted expression.
Levi cleaned the dishes and put them aside, and when he turned around and came back, Amelia's expression had returned to natural.
"Levi, even if I had to do it again, I would have helped you all the same. At that time in a foreign country, we were from the same country, how could I not save you?" Amelia's expression was warm and gentle as she looked at Levi with an imploring gaze.
Levi gave a nod and didn't say much.
"Levi, can you stay here with me for a little longer and not be in such a hurry to leave?" Amelia looked at him expectantly.
Levi thought for a moment before nodding his head in agreement.
He was always distracted and wandered off several times, and only when she was tired and fell asleep did he breathe a sigh of relief and leave the hospital as if relieved.
At the Starry Night Club, Levi held the cocktail in his hand and shook it gently.
"What brings you to my place?" A young man walked in through the door, his hair looking extraordinarily striking with its colourful dye and the diamond studs he wore above his earlobes emanating a blinding brilliance in the light.
He sat down directly beside Levi and raised eyebrows at him.
Levi took a sip of wine and twisted his head to look at the man sitting beside him, his gaze paused on the colorful hair on his head and he couldn't help but frown in disgust: "Why did you make it fancy? Your grandfather doesn't scold you?"
"He only asked me to marry and have children, I have married and my wife is pregnant, what more does he want from me?" The man bristled disdainfully, "You haven't answered me yet, so why are you drinking here? That's not like you."
"Amelia is paralyzed and has just had her legs amputated." Levi took another sip of wine before speaking.
"The woman who saved you and had sex with you five years ago?" Declan Bell raised his eyebrows and immediately understood, "Do you have to be responsible for someone for life just for one night? I don't think that woman is good either."
"My mother told me before she died that a man should be responsible. Since I had sex with her, I naturally have to be responsible for her." Levi was expressionless, just calmly restating this fact.
