Chapter 449
"No, he just helped me with the lawsuit. There was nothing else! Valerie, how dare you scrutinize me
like this?"
Amelia never would've expected that Valerie would say something like this!
She did think about it, but there was nothing between the two of them. She had always thought that
she'd been working hard to help Valerie get out of prison, but Valerie had the nerve to think otherwise!
Amelia was very heartbroken.
She had always been faithful in her marriage, but even her own daughter did not believe her.
"Isn't it true? You've paid him a handsome amount in lawyer fees, haven't you? I heard that it even
exceeded a million. Do you know how many other actual good lawyers you could've hired with over a
million?"
Valerie couldn't trust Amelia at all.
"I didn't have much time back then."
Amelia felt that she had been extremely misjudged.
"Is that so? Mom, no one is stupid. Stop hiding it. Even if you did something shameful behind Dad's
back, I can't control it. I'm in jail and have no time to care about your problems."
Valerie's expression was filled with mockery.
Amelia felt very sorrowful when she heard this. "Valerie, is that what you think of your mother?"
"That's right. Everyone is disgusting to me now."
Valerie looked at Amelia blandly. She did not feel that she had said something insensitive.
"Valerie, how did you become like this? You weren't like this before! Who are you? You are not my
Valerie. Who are you?"
Amelia looked at Valerie, whose face was pressed against the glass wall. She had become a lot thinner
and there were no emotions on her face.
Amelia realized that Valerie looked like a total stranger!
In addition to her voice, what she said made Amelia feel that she did not know her own daughter at all.
However, Valerie looked at Amelia panicking while she remained calm. The corners of her mouth
curled into a slight grin. "I've always been like this, but I've already had enough of pretending to be a
good girl. I'm tired and being imprisoned is a relief for me. I don't have to wear a mask every day and I
can stop facing those hypocrites with a fake smile."
Ever since she was young, she had been a people-pleaser.
She had always known how to make others gravitate towards her, so throughout elementary school to
university, she had always been popular.
However, only Valerie knew that it was all fake.
"Valerie..."
Amelia blankly looked at Valerie and did not know what to say.
"Alright, time's up!"
The prison guard came in and gave a rude announcement as he stood behind Valerie.
"You can go now. Don't ever come to see me anymore. Pretend that you never gave birth to your
daughter."
After saying that, Valerie hung up the phone, turned her head and went back in without even turning
back once.
"Valerie! Valerie!"
Amelia slammed her fists on the glass wall but Valerie never looked back and didn't even look at her.
Amelia collapsed onto the chair, feeling extremely dejected.
She didn't know what she had done wrong either. How could such a well- behaved daughter become
like this?
Amelia sat there for a long time as her mind was in a mess.
She didn't know who to talk about these things with at that moment, so the first thing she thought of
was to visit Yoel and have a chat with him.
Amelia then arrived at the hospital.
Just as she walked to the door of Yoel's ward, she heard a woman's voice coming from inside. Amelia's Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
heart started to pound.
Her intuition told her not to go in, so she stood at the door to listen.
"Harvey, I've already said that Yoel is my boyfriend. Believe it or not!"
Amelia had never heard this voice before, but from her tone, she could tell that this woman was
younger than her.
She was much younger.
"Xenia, don't lie to me. Do you know what this man does?" "I know, but does it have anything to do with
you? I've said that I'm done with you. I'm going to start a new life and I also hope that you can start
yours."
They were Xenia, Harvey, and Yoel.
After Xenia advised Harvey to start a new life, Yoel added, "Dr. Felton, I know that you are reluctant to
let her go, but to tell you the truth, I want to thank you. If your mother hadn't provoked Xenia, she
wouldn't have kicked my car and we wouldn't have known each other."
"How long have you known each other? And he's already your boyfriend? Xenia, stop joking. Please
give me some more time, okay?"
Harvey was almost about to beg Xenia. By coincidence, he had seen Xenia coming to the hospital, but
she was there to visit Yoel.
When he followed behind her, he saw that Xenia and Yoel were sharing an apple with each other and
his heart was about to break!
"Doctor Felton, it doesn't matter how long we have known each other. I know that I have a bad
reputation, but I've decided to change for Xenia. I will work hard and I will treat her well with all my
heart in the future."
"Shut up!" Harvey grew angry as soon as he heard Yoel's words. "Treat her well with all your heart?
How many rich women have listened to your words? You just want Xenia because she's young, so you
want to take advantage of her for even longer, don't you? Let me tell you, she may have been
scammed by you now, but she will wake up sooner or later."
"Doctor Felton, I will prove to you with my actions that I actually do love Xenia."
Yoel's voice was very pleasant. When he said this, it sounded extremely affectionate.
Amelia, who was listening outside, could already imagine Yoel's expression even though she wasn't
inside.
She stood at the door as her face paled, and she staggered backwards. "Xenia?"
A surge of jealousy flared up in her heart. She was already feeling dejected after visiting Valerie, and
now that Yoel was with another woman, she couldn't help but feel angered.
Nobody in the ward realized that Amelia had come by and they were still putting up an act for Harvey.
"I trust him, Harvey. You know, my family doesn't have rules on my future husband's family background,
so I hope you can bless us... And we..."
Xenia turned to Yoel and gave him a look.
Yoel immediately added, "Yes, we've already done that and Xenia has already given her first time to
me."
"What did you say?!"
Harvey's mind went blank as soon as he heard this and he swung his fist at Yoel's head!
"Harvey!"
Xenia was frightened and rushed to stop him.
With Yoel's current state, Harvey could easily beat him into a pulp without even trying!
But after all, Harvey was a man. How could Xenia stop him? Harvey ignored her and rushed over to
beat Yoel up.
He landed punches on Yoel randomly without aiming.
Yoel couldn't move either. He could only turn around and let him hit his back.
"Ouch!"
Pitiful screams echoed in the ward.
Xenia was really afraid that Harvey would actually hurt Yoel. In that case, Harvey would have to take
the responsibility, so she could only try her best to hold him back.
Harvey's eyes were red with fury. He didn't care about anything. Thinking of what Yoel had just said, he
turned Yoel's body over with one hand, lifted his foot and kicked him!
"Ah!"
In an instant, another pitiful scream sounded from the ward.
