Chapter 270 The Reunion She looked at the man she loved deeply, and her heart stung. “Go to bed. You must’ve been exhausted after running around all day.” Lamont’s words were thoughtful. Amelie nodded and then didn’t say anything in response. She was thirsty, and when she was about to pour a glass of water, Lamont suddenly approached her. “How are you doing abroad?” Lamont’s words took Amelie by surprise. “Not bad.” Amelie answered stiffly, dodging eye contact. “By the way, there is one more thing that you may not know. Jeff returned to his Kappa family and… was injured.” Amelie looked at him in shock. “How come?” “That’s what I know. You can go and visit him if you have the time.” The next day, Amelie came to a villa in the suburbs according to the address in the text message. There was a road outside the villa. After Amelie got out of the car, she walked towards the villa’s gate. As soon as she arrived, she saw Emilee watering and cutting up flowers and plants in the yard. “Emilee!” Amelie was overjoyed as she saw an old friend. Emilee was surprised when she heard the familiar voice. It took her a few seconds to react, and when she came back to her senses, Amelie had already pushed open the door of the villa and walked in. “I’m not dreaming! You’re really back, Amelie!” Emilee chirped in thrill. She fixed her gaze on Amelie in disbelief. “Yeah, you’re not dreaming. I’m really here!” Amelie confirmed. Then she took Emilee’s hand and walked to a bench, and sat down. “I’m sorry, I left without saying goodbye at that time, and I didn’t tell you the news until I got on the plane. I just didn’t want…” Amelie stopped in the middle of her sentence and didn’t know how to continue. “You don’t need to explain. I understand. I knew you were in a dilemma. How is Mr. Mullen?” Emilee finished it for her. “You knew?” Amelie was surprised. “Yes, I knew. I am one of the few people that knew why did you leave. So I understand. I am really happy that you are back.” Emilee pulled Amelie into the house. “Does Lamont know?” Lamont’s face appeared in Amelie’s head. If Lamont knew why she had left, maybe it wouldn’t be so hard for him to accept. “I don’t know about that. You are here to shot a movie, right? I heard you are a famous actor abroad now, and the world-renowned director thinks highly of you!” Emilee started to ask questions and praise Amelie. “It’s just a coincidence. As long as I can return, all that is worth it.” The two chatted happily and had a great time. The shoting of the movie started after two days. Eden had already gone abroad for recuperation, so she could relax for a while.
In the evening, there was a dinner party arranged by the director and the film crew. Amelie didn’t want to go, but Belen said that an important investor. start over. be at the party, and it might help her to Amelie didn’t believe it at first, but Rey.. the: ie thing. Eventually, Amelie nodded in agreement. Before attending the party at night, Amelie deliberately dressed very simply, not wanting to stand out at the party. She just wanted to make an appearance and didn’t want others to think she was a diva. But she wouldn’t expect Lamont would be in this party. Amelie spotted him the moment she entered the room. “Let’s go have a drink with that investor. After that, we just have to wait for a while and leave.” Belen was very considerate. Amelie nodded and picked up a glass of champagne. After several seconds, they found the investor. Amelie looked at the man in front of her in confusion. She had never seen the man before. Could it be because…. Just when A was pondering about the investor, someone Amelie loathed the most came over.. Although Amelie hadn’t seen him for a year, she was still disgusted when she looked at his face. Just when she was about to walk past him, the man stopped her. “Why are you leaving in such a hurry, Ms. Mullen? Are you not happy to see an old friend?” “Old friend? I don’t understand what you are saying, Mr. Evans. Are we friends? I don’t think so. 1 don’t know you that well!” Amelie wanted to leave just after she finished her words, yet the man didn’t let her. Amelie was pi*sed. Just when she was about to scold him, someone appeared in front of her. Amelie took a closer look and realized it was Lamont. “Have some respect, Mr. Evans. This is a public place, after all. You don’t want to be in the news because of harassing women, right?” Albert’s heart shriveled up in fear by Lamont’s threat. www “Very good, Mr. Byron. Hope we won’t run into each other again.” Albert walked away hurriedly while gritting his teeth. Before leaving, he eyed Amelie up and down, and a meaningful look crossed his face. It was like he was up to something “Why did you come here? There are so many people here. If people see you, they will exaggerate things and our names will appear in the hot topic again.” Amelie was worried. “Don’t worry about it. This is a private party. People won’t know.” 8 Lamont’s tone was confident. Amelie didn’t bring it up again, but she kept her distance from Lamont. Lamont sensed her movement, but he wasn’t mad. He led them to the investor. Amelie looked at the man peacefully. The man was over fifty. “This is Mr. Smith. He is the producer of a famous TV show. That show is pretty famous here.” Lamont briefly introduced. Amelie was stunned. She didn’t expectContent held by NôvelDrama.Org.
this ordinary-looking man in front of her to be a producer of a famous show. “It’s so nice to meet you, Mr. Smith. My name is Amelie.” Amelie greeted him politely while holding the champagne glass. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Mullen. I know who you are. I thought you were just good at acting. But now I met you, I realized you are breathtakingly beautiful.” People around Amelie were shocked as they heard Mr. Smith’s praise. “You are too kind, Mr. Smith.” It was the first time they met, and Amelie didn’t want to act like she was too desperate. Thus, she drank up the champagne in her glass and prepared to leave. “Wait, Ms. Mullen. I still have something to tell you.” Mr. Smith stopped her.
