She didn't want to hurt him and so, she helped him cover up the wound he was trying to hide.

"Lily, once dinner is ready, have the food sent to Lucian's study. I am going out for a while," Amelia said addressing Lily.

Lily stopped cooking and turned around. "Mrs. Amelia, dinner is almost ready. You can leave once you have eaten."

Her eyes curiously watched Amelia stand at the kitchen door. She wondered how she could go out alone without Lucian's company.

"I will be back once I have completed my errands. If Lucian asks, you can tell him Courtney wanted to have a chat with me." Amelia shook her head.

"Okay," Lily agreed, hesitantly. There was nothing more she could say to change Amelia's mind.

Amelia sped through the roads. She was eager to know the reason.

She had driven around recently, becoming skilled at driving.

As she approached the villa located in the south of the city, Amelia suddenly stepped on the brakes.

She put her chin on the steering wheel, looking out into space. After a few moments of thinking, she realized that perhaps Jonny's request to meet with her might not have been that simple.

"Jonny!" Amelia exclaimed, shocked by Jonny's words.

Courtney said this before, but she had never taken her words seriously.

But now, he had finally admitted that she was the woman for him.

"You do not love me," Amelia retorted. Hearing her words, Jonny laughed, mockingly. He gently touched her face with his other hand. "It's rare to see a woman look so beautiful without makeup."

Despite his attempt at flirting, Amelia felt bile rise up to her throat.

She took a step back but, there was nothing but a wall behind her.

"Jonny please, behave yourself!" Amelia pleaded, looking away.

"This is my place. If..." he trailed off. Jonny knew what he planned was treacherous but, it was important to show her his true colors.

Amelia's heart began to thud. She knew what he had meant.

She felt trapped, trying to think of a way out of this situation.

"Jonny, before I came here, I called sworn mother and told her..." Amelia began.

"Shut up!" Jonny yelled, cutting her off. "Do you really think I would not do anything because you told my mother?" he asked, a nasty smile on his face.
