Chapter 140 Extreme Torture

Amelia pressed her lips as she felt sore all over her body that even her feet were numb with pain.

It was already half past seven but the sky was still visible. Shelly took out a bottle of water and downed it all in one gulp. "Do you want some?" she asked arrogantly.

Amelia looked away and said coldly, "Miss Shelly, this is not a TV drama. You can stop now."

Shelly was emotionless. She wasn't focusing her energy on controlling her anger instead she was playing tricks. She opened the bottle, held the bottle midair, and poured it on Amelia's face.

Amelia tried her best to dodge, turning to the side in an attempt to avoid the cold water splashing all over her.

However, Shelly was quick. Soon, Amelia was having trouble breathing with all the water pouring down on her, she kicked her legs helplessly.

"Hahaha..." Shelly laughed evilly. In a mocking tone, she taunted, "Amelia, do you want to know what you look like right now? If this gets out to the news, your squeaky clean image will be tainted. I don't think Lucian would find that attractive, wouldn't you?"

"Miss Shelly, I respect you. I know I promised I wouldn't be involved with Lucian anymore but now you're just being mean. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Amelia wasn't softhearted anymore. At the most, she merely tolerated Shelly but if Shelly wasn't going to be a decent human being then she was definitely going to fight back.

The mockery on Shelly's face was gone as it was replaced with a stone

never had he broken down like that.

When he took her to the hospital, he impatiently waited for the results, never leaving the hospital. The entire time he felt as if his heart was going to jump out of his chest. Filled with remorse, he wanted to hit his head against the wall in guilt. He felt as if it was his fault that this happened to Amelia. If only he'd protected her, this never would have happened.

As soon as he found out that Amelia had left the villa, he immediately went out to look for her. He also asked most of his friends to search for her in the city.

Amelia didn't wake up until the following night. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw were the white walls and the strong smell of disinfectant fluid immediately filled her nose. With that, she knew she was still alive.

She looked around and noticed that Lucian was lying on the bed, holding her hand tightly.

Amelia slightly moved her finger which woke him up right away.

"Amelia..." he whispered softly, his eyes still half closed.

Her heart was immediately filled with warmth.

"Are you okay? Are you feeling any pain?" he asked nervously as he stood up, a worried look on his face.

Amelia's lips were dry and parched. Putting on a wry smile, she said, "I'm fine."

"Don't move. I'll call the doctor first." Lucian was enlivened now that Amelia was finally awake.

Amelia felt sore all over her body and her eyelids still felt heavy so much so that she fell asleep once again.
