Chapter 382 James’s True Identity
Amelie was very puzzled and wanted a complete answer.
The man didn’t talk at all.
Just as she was about to tear her face apart, two men stood at the door of Lamont’s. room on the other side.
They all were in black suits.
Her heart froze in an instant.
That was a foreign country, so she didn’t dare to act rashly, just in case…
“Ms. Cisneros, please come to the elevator, Mr. Byron is already waiting for you on the top floor.”
After the man finished speaking, he directly grabbed Amelie’s arm and pushed her into the elevator, then pressed the button for the top floor, giving her no chance to resist.
After the elevator doors closed, Amelie was left alone, and she inevitably got a little scared.
“What the hell is the President trying to do?”
But she was not going to just sit and wait for her death, she hurriedly pressed the buttons of other floors, but there was no reaction.
It was all over, there was nothing to do, it seemed that no matter how much she resisted, it was simply useless.
The elevator was very fast, and it only took a few minutes to get to the top floor.
After the elevator door opened, Amelie slowly walked out of the elevator.
The building on the top floor looked very majestic, and the decoration was done in cooler colors.
How could a hotel have such a place? Maybe here also was…
Ms. Mullen, I hope you are well.”
The man said with a smile as he was sitting down on the sofa in the next room, holding a tall glass in his hand.
“I also hope that you are well, Mr. James, and you are so intriguing. We have already met, why do you still…”
Amelie did not finish speaking yet, her eyes fixed on the man sitting there.
Deep down she seemed to already know the answer.
“Did Miss Mullen come up with something?”
“You are James Harlyn?”
Amelie was unusually calm, standing at the door.
“It seems that Ms. Mullen has already recognized who I am.” James laughed playfully.
“You dare to laugh? I haven’t seen you for about ten years, and now you’ve become like this. If my dad knew, he would definitely come over and spank you!”
Amelie looked at him sternly then went to the sofa and sat down.
“Of course you can still recognize me, but why didn’t you recognize me when in the company? Could it be my place was exposed?”
James asked suspiciously, and then quickly looked at his body.
“I’ve just recognized you too. You are really impressive, and your dress code is very similar, too. If I hadn’t seen that ring on the table, it would have been hard for me to recognize you.”
Amelie said with a smile, then, naturally, she took a glass of wine from the table and took a sip.
James and Amelie were childhood friends. They separated after they became adults. James returned to China to develop. At that time the Mullen’s Group had a very high status.
“After learning of your arrival, I arranged for someone to protect you as soon as possible. You have to explain to me why you’re with Lamont? Between you two…”
When he asked this question, his tone changed unusually.
“We are just partners, don’t overthink about it.
Amelie quickly explained, trying to clarify the relationship between herself and him.
“Also, I’m Elena Cisneros now, you’d better not call me Amelie Mullen ever again, in case someone interested hears it, I’m afraid it will be exposed.”
Amelie looked a bit unnatural.
“Are you still lying to me? I’ve known you for so long, and I can’t help but know what you look like. Although we have not seen each other for many years, I still understand you. Lamont has had a significant influence on you, so don’t hide it from me. Better tell me what exactly happened.”
Amelie also didn’t expect James’ temperament to become much more serious after years of meeting.
“You really surprised me. I didn’t expect that after so many years you still know me so well. Nothing can ge hidden from your eyes.”
Amelie took a deep breath before speaking to him.
But she did not speak of the grievances and resentment between herself and Lamont.
“So, I sent people to secretly monitor the Aylward Group on this place. After the accident with the Mullen Group, I sent people to recover some of the assets that were left abroad. If you want to restore your strength, I can definitely help you, but Willard Aylward’s current capital is still too strong, I’m afraid it will be difficult to defeat him.”
James looked sighed with a serious expression. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course, I understand what you said, but now that the arrow is on the string, I can’t easily give up. Moreover, there is a mysterious man behind the scenes. He asked me to discuss cooperation with you.”
She was full of worries.
“I know the mysterious person you mentioned. I didn’t find him, but that’s not the point. No matter what his purpose is, at least it hasn’t affected our plan. You will return home tomorrow. Since this trap has already been set, let’s give it a try.”
He sneered, feeling a little more confident in his heart.
You are right! Besides, you can’t hurt Lamont. I just see someone guarding your door? What are you doing?”
Amelie suddenly remembered about Lamont and asked quickly.
“It’s okay, I’m just worried that he will come and find you, and then our relationship will be revealed. Don’t worry, I know your feelings for him are unusual, so I won’t take any action against him. But you
must also remember that this does not mean that I will get used to seeing him. If he hurts you, I definitely won’t let him go. Nothing matters in my eyes.” James said confidently.
Amelie, of course, knew his abilities as well as his character.
“I got it, just promise me not to harm her casually.”
Amelie was still grateful to him that he did not know about the past, otherwise Lamont could have suffered a lot now.
“Since there is nothing else, I’ll go first.”
She put the wine glass on the table, then got up to leave.
“Wait, Amelie, don’t rush to leave, I have something for you.” James directly called her Amelie.
“What?”
Immediately afterwards she saw James holding out a box in her hand.
“What is this?” she was surprised.
“Just take it with you, and open it later, and you’ll find out.”
He smiled and then glanced at the men in black standing at the door.
“These three have been sent to protect you. I will be in charge of your safety here these days until you return to China, but you should also remember to stay in the room and don’t go out.”
James instructed.
“Okay, I’ll then.”
Only then did she take the box and turn to leave.
She was very happy that she was able to reunite with James, but now the relationship between them couldn’t be called good.
