Chapter 126 - Nice Person

"Do not say that after all, she is still my sister!"  Amelia frowned at them when she realized everyone was insulting her sister. 

"Though she had left without saying a word, she came back. And though she had not apologised to the father, she still accepted when the father offered her to live with us. 

And every woman wanted to look beautiful in her reception, then what was wrong if she threw a tantrum to get the blank papers of treasure. She still is a nice person and even decided to share it with her husband like a good wife.

Everyone has a few flaws but she had good points too. You can not continue to blame her for everything!" Amelia replied with a frown as she shook her head looking at her friend in disappointment as if she was very angry.

"Oh my! What are you talking about?" the daughter of the viscount covered her mouth with her hands as she heard them.

"Amelia, you are too innocent. How could you call these traits good?" asked another daughter of the marquees who shook her head too.

Madeline and Melisa just stood there. They wanted to say something but even after parting their lips, voices did not come out of their mouths.

They seem to be afraid of the girl and her husband who had exceptional powers. They did not want to bring further trouble upon them. They were here only to see drama.

So, even when all the eyes were on them, they did not open their mouths and say anything that confused Amelia as they used to enjoy humiliating Hazel the most even when they knew that she was right. They conveniently ignored the fact that she might be right, because they felt superior after insulting other nobles.

Most of them do so! Then she could not understand why they were so silent today. Even their faces had turned pale, just like her mother who did not want to partake in anything related with Hazel! Her existence was bane on her life and she could not live freely until she was there.

So, she had to utilise today and insult her so much that she did not dare to raise her head in high society again!

"That is right! She only came back to the court because she had nowhere to go, not because she missed all of you or she cared about you.

And that was the reason that she easily accepted the offer to stay here!" replied the daughter of the viscount as her face filled with disdain.

"That is right. I must say that even her husband was just like her. He did not feel any shame in living here but he even had the guts to ask for money to buy the dresses of their marriage reception from your father's money.

It was only his duty to arrange his and his wife's dress!" nodded Natasha as she took another sip of her drink and looked at Amelia with pity.

"I must say they all are too cheap. I didn't even know how your family is bearing both of them. If it would have been my family, my father would have thrown me out if i had dared to come back after running away in the middle of the night." her eyes filled with disgust too as she felt like they were treating the whole incident way too lightly by throwing a party for a runaway girl.

"I think she did not dare to attend the functions because she knew that other nobles would show her the mirror! How could she even have the audacity to stand in between us!" she added when none of them replied to her. 

They all exchanged glances, even if they did not say it loudly they all agreed to her that taking the daughter back at home after running away was a felony even when they all were women.

"Yes! You better go and tell your father to make an excuse and announce a different reason for throwing today's party. You will be mocking your father for a long time in the social circle for today's event. ``A girl even pushed Amelia towards her father.

Amelia was so satisfied with the result that she was grinning ear to ear after listening to all of them but did not say a word. She bit her lips and looked at them with a worried face.

"Friends, I understand that she had made a few mistakes but who had not? We all do some when we are young.

But we all get a second chance. So, why don't you be big hearted and forgive my sister too. I am sure that she would apologise for her mistake from all of you." she squeezed a tear in her eyes as she pleaded from all of them like a mature sister who could not bear the insulting words against her loving sister.

"Oh my! I do not know how to open your eyes. Even after saying so much, you are still taking her side!" The girl shook her head as if she was highly disappointed by the words of Amelia who bowed her head like a little girl who knew her mistake.

"Amelia. You are saying that she would come and apologise to us. But look here. It has been an hour since the party had started but she is not even here. 

I am sure that she was too ashamed to come and face all of us. So, let her go and do not create rifts between friends, alright?" said a girl with a soft face as if she was too worried that Amelia would be out casted too if she did not stop.

"But.. sigh! I think you are right. She is not going to come and attend the party. 

But I thought that she would come and apologise to everyone to atone for her sins! I think I should give up now!"
