Chapter 234 A Calming Relationship
Amelie was sure that Willard had something to do with this matter.
“I understand what you mean, don’t worry, I will unveil the trick behind this.”
Amelie and Lamont walked ahead while Miriam followed quietly behind them. Miriam looked at Amelie occasionally, and her resentment toward Amelie deepened further.
She thought she had gotten closer to Lamont, but her plan was cut short by the appearance of Amelie, who seemed to have walked into Lamont’s heart already.
Miriam couldn’t let this be! Otherwise, all of her efforts would’ve been for naught!
The more she thought about it, the angrier Miriam got!
The thought of Cynthia hanging out at Byron’s Residence sent Miriam into a frenzy as well.
All these obstacles made her anxious.
Suddenly, she had an idea.
“Mr. Byron, since Ms. Mullen is here, I’ll head back first. Call me up anytime if you have any orders.”
Miriam was ready to leave them on their own.
“Alright.”
Lamont never gave a thought to it.
Amelie walked into the office and felt indifferent to the normcore interior design.
She thought it fitted Lamont quite well, considering Lamont’s personality.
“I heard that Willard was often looking for you about working together recently, and you’ve rejected all his requests? What’s your thought about it? Do you plan to hide from him forever?”
Amelie changed the topic to Willard instead.
“What do you mean I’m hiding? I’m actually giving Willard an opportunity.”
“Care to elaborate?”
Amelie got curious and turned her head and gave Lamont, who stood behind her, a serious gaze.
“Willard might appear to be bold and fearless, but all these acts are a ploy to divert everyone’s attention. Willard’s real
prey is not on the Bryon family but had always been the Springer family.”
“So you’re saying…”
It was only then that Amelie realized.
“So there’s nothing to worry about, and just go with the flow.”
Amelie felt more at ease after she heard Lamont’s words.
“But that being said, you’d still have to keep an eye on Cynthia. I’m afraid the things that happened to her are not that
simple, and that culprit won’t let that off easily.”
Lamont was right, and Amelie thought the same too.
It was getting late, the two talked about filming, and then they were prepared to leave.
“It’s getting late, I’ll send you back.”
Lamont glanced at the clock on the wall and whispered.
“Sounds good.”
A figure appeared at the entrance as the two were about to open the office door to leave.
It was Leila.
“What brought you here?”
Amelie looked at her, dissatisfied.
“Can’t I be here?”
Leila glanced at Amelie disdainfully, and walked towards Lamont’s side.
“I’m Lamont’s fiance after all, Amelie. Why are you here? Don’t you know Lamont had a change of status with you?”
“A change of status?”
Amelie turned her head towards Lamont on the side.
“Why haven’t I heard about it? Leila, you told us about you being Lamont’s fiance. Is there anyone out there who can prove your statement?”
“Why, you little! Know your place, Amelie! I’m warning you to leave this place and stop thinking about getting closer to my fiance!”
Leila was infuriated by Amelie’s words and replied arrogantly.
Amelie ignored it and treated it as a joke.
But Lamont walked in front of Amelie and blocked her.
“Don’t you know our marriage was off? Stop messing around, or else I’ll be kicking you out.”
Lamont said sternly.
“But how could you do this to me, Lamont? Have you forgotten what you’ve told me?”
Leila was astonished by Lamont’s words, unable to accept her reality.
“I have never admitted the relationship between you and me. It’ll be best for you to stop wasting your time on me.”
The words of Lamont pleased everyone.
“Lamont!”
Leila looked at the two in shock, not to mention being humiliated.
“You heard what Mr. Byron said earlier, so stop making things hard for yourself.”
Amelie smiled softly, shrugged helplessly, and left.
“I can’t believe it!”
Lamont ignored her, still, followed Amelie right after, and was prepared to leave. Chapter 2344 Calming Relationship

Leila’s eyes turned red but she had no choice but to watch the man she liked leave her like that.
In the elevator, Amelie kept herself silent.
“I never knew she’d be back.”
Lamont spoke up suddenly.
That incident happened way back then, but Lamont took the initiative to explain it to her.
Amelie was surprised about it but gave the nod back regardless.
“There’s no need to explain. I knew.”
Amelie didn’t tell Lamont that she was behind Leila’s return. Had she not done so, Leila would still be stranded!
“I’ll send you back.”
The two walked on the road, bathed in the moonlight.
The next day, Amelie’s drama was about to wrap up. Despite the good news, it was temporarily put on hold because of Cynthia.
On this day, Amelie came to the hospital and gave a special visit to Cynthia. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
As soon as she opened the door of the ward, she saw Jeff sitting beside the bed.
“Here, have an apple.”
Jeff handed a peeled apple to Cynthia who was sitting on the hospital bed.
“You have never been so kind to me before.”
Cynthia teased and then took the apple and ate it.
“You like it?”
Jeff looked at Cynthia dotingly, as if she was his own treasure.
Amelie was surprised the two got very close all of a sudden.
“Am I disturbing you?”
Amelie asked cautiously.
“Amelie? What brought you here?”
Even Cynthia’s eyes were smiling. She was exhilarated.
“I came to see you know you’re back safe and sound. You seem fine. It looks like I’ve worried too much.”
Amelie gave the two a mysterious gaze, and then handed the flowers she had brought to Jeff.
“Thanks for dropping by.”
Cynthia said gratefully. She then quickly pointed to the side, hinting Amelie to sit on the sofa.
“Hey, don’t mention it! I’m glad both of you reconciled too.”
Jeff was a little embarrassed.
He was not used to being seen showing affection to Cynthia by an outsider.
She used to be just a childhood sweetheart, but now…
“Hey, what’s on your mind Jeff? Now get up and fetch me some water!”
Cynthia in anger looked at Jeff, whose expression was off.
“No, nothing, I’m on it.”
Jeff got up and picked up the water bottle as soon as he finished and left the ward.
