Chapter 269 The Return “Our dad has lived here before. Don’t worry about it. He’ll have a great time here.” Sergio put down the document in his hand and comforted her. “I heard that you are going to shot a movie. Do you have to go back?” Amelie was paused as she heard Sergio’s question. “Yes, I have to go back to shot a few scenes. What? You don’t want me to go?” Amelie asked tentatively. “Of course not. I just want to make sure. You should go back. After all, I am your elder brother. I have already realized that your heart is not here. Why should I force you?” Amelie looked at him in shock when she heard his words. “You mean…” “S*lly girl. How could our father agree to medical treatments if I didn’t bring you here? I can’t bear you suffer like this.” Sergio’s tone was earnest. Then he walked up to Amelie with something in his hand. “This is the plane ticket. I know what you are thinking, Amelie. I just want you to believe in yourself. It had been a long time since you left that place, and people must’ve forgotten about what happened. You improved your acting, and I believe that you will succeed this time!” Sergio’s tone was definate. “Do you really think so, Aaron?” Amelie still couldn’t believe it. Aaron had always acted like he didn’t want her to be with Lamont. But now he handed her a plane ticket? “Of course I am. When should I lie to you? S*lly girl.” After finishing his words, Sergio put the plane ticket in her hand and left the room. Amelie was in a daze. She still couldn’t believe it. Maybe because she had experienced a lot, she calmed down soon afterward. Two days later, Amelie was already on the plane back home. Looking at the familiar blue sky and w h i t e cl*uds, her mood lightened a lot. When she got off the plane, she spotted two familiar faces in the terminal hall. When It was Belen and Rex. She finally felt she was at home as soon as she saw them. She walked up to them with a bright smile and took off her sunglasses. “Long time no see! I miss you guys so much.” Amelie laughed loudly and then hugged Belen. “I knew you would come back, Amelie. I couldn’t be happier when I heard the news of your return.” “I’m so excited too! So… what’s your deal with Rex? You know I support you no matter what, right? You two shouldn’t hide it. Are you planning never to tell each other how you feel for the rest of your life?” “What?” Belen’s face reddened as she heard Amelie’s teasing tone. “What are you talking about? Stop talking.” Belen looked at Rex, only to find that he was calm. Seeing him like this, Belen didn’t know what to say. Mixed feelings flooded her heart. “Okay. I’ll sht up. Let’s go! I’m starving.” Amelie chuckled and pulled Belen into the car. They came to a famous local restaurant. “It’s your treat, right Rex?” Amelie stared at Rex mysteriously. “I don’t know how much you can eat. What if I couldn’t afford it? But, on the other hand, I am your brother. So, OK. It’s my treat. Order whatever you want!” The three of them started to talk, and none of them mentioned those unpleasant memories. Time passed quickly, and Amelie wiped her muth after the meal. “Right! I heard that you are going to act in a world-renowned director’s movie, and you have to come here to shot it. Is that true? This is such a great news. You are going to be big again.” Belen was happy for Amelie. However, Amelie was calm. It might not be good news for her. “Since I have returned, I will definitely start everything over.” Amelie announced in a lukewarm tone. “You can’t say that! Don’t forget your status before you went abroad. You were one of the most famous stars in the country! Moreover, after you went abroad, there were few disputes about you, and then Prosperity Global Entertainment said that you were going out for further education. That can help you start again!” “For further education?” Amelie was a bit surprised. This was indeed good news for her. At least it would be easy for her to start over, and the fame she had would help her. “That’s right. Lamont came up with it. You didn’t contact Lamont at all?” Belen looked at Amelie in astonishment. Rex pulled Belen’s sleeves to stop her from talking. Only then did Belen come to her senses and quickly pick up the drink beside her to ease the awkward tension. “So he was the one that helped me.” Amelie stated the truth softly with a very flat tone. “I know what you’re worried about, but sometimes you can’t control your feelings. You have to think clearly about what you really want, Amelie.” Belen couldn’t hold back and tried to analyze it for her. Amelie smiled wryly in silence. After dinner, it was already very late. Rex was going to take Amelie back to the Mullen family’s villa, but Amelie rejected his proposal. “I have some work to do in downtown tomorrow. If I go to the villa, I won’t be able to be there on time. I’ll sleep in my apartment in downtown. I’ll visit you when tomorrow’s work is done. Don’t worry about me.” Amelie’s voice was firm. Rex nodded. them Rex knew Amelie wasn’t that little girl anymore. She was a grown-up now and didn’t need them to be by her side for everything. Amelie took a taxi and arrived in front of the apartment building. She remembered this place and her apartment very well. She had been away for less than a year. How could she not remember? She took the key out of her bag and opened the door. The room was pitch black, like a bottomless pit. Amelie calmly turned on the light in the room and put down her things. Just when she was about to take off her shoes, she noticed a pair of men’s shoes. They looked familiar. She immediately became vigilant and paused. Amelie could already guess that the person in the room at this time was probably Lamont, who she hadn’t seen for nearly a year. Her heart started to beat fast, but she still couldn’t make up her mind. For some reason, she was somehow afraid to meet Lamont. She was worried that she would not be able to control herself. Thinking of this, she took a step back secretly and was about to leave. Just as she put her hand on the door handle, the bedroom door opened all of a sudden. Lamont’s handsome face appeared in front of her eyes. Amelie looked at him in shock, his mind went blank for a moment, and she couldn’t remember anything. “You are back.” Lamont’s tone was plaintive. Amelie looked at the man in front of her and was momentarily at a loss for words. Lamont grew a beard, making him look more mature. In fact, to put it bluntly, he looked like he had suffered a lot.
