Reborn on Wedding Night: Flirting the Cold Bigshot into Blushes Chapter 145: Amelia Gave Him a Gift
Alia Wright said she wanted to return to the Imperial Garden.
Emma Lewis disagreed, "I don’t agree with you going back. Who knows what kind of madness Godfery Shaw will act out again? He used to seem like a cold, unapproachable person, but behind the scenes, he’s capable of such twisted things."
Alia Wright’s gaze was calm, "I promised him I would return."
"So what if you promised?" Emma Lewis seed to explode, "Alia, what are you thinking? After how Godfery Shaw treated you, don’t you hate him? Yet you still want to see him."
Alia Wright shook her head, "I don’t hate him. There are many things you don’t understand."
Emma Lewis’s shoulders slumped as she pitifully said, "I don’t understand, so why don’t you tell ? Aren’t we brothers... friends?"
Emma originally wanted to say siblings but awkwardly corrected herself to say friends.
"Hmm, we are friends, so there are so things I can’t let you get involved with." Alia Wright’s tone remained calm, as if discussing matters neutrally.
Emma Lewis’s shoulders slumped even lower.
She felt that what Alia said made no sense, but she didn’t know how to refute it.
Emma Lewis didn’t realize that Alia considered her a true friend, which is why she didn’t want her to get involved.
Emma Lewis was a bit angry, "Even if you have to et, Godfery Shaw should co to see you. You can’t even walk, how are you going to et him? Call him and make him co over!"
Alia Wright thought that made sense and was about to make a call when she realized her phone was missing.
A flicker of surprise flashed through her affectionate eyes, then she gazed hopefully at Emma Lewis, "Emma, my phone is missing. Can I borrow yours to make a call?"
Looking at Alia’s delicate and vulnerable appearance, Emma Lewis couldn’t stay mad.
Oh well, since Alia is so fragile, making allowances is only right.
Emma Lewis handed her phone to Alia Wright.
Alia dialed Godfery Shaw’s number.
She had dialed this number so many tis in her past life that she rembered it by heart.
As it connected, Alia suddenly rembered she ant to call Julius Shaw but had dialed Godfery’s number. Just as she was about to hang up, the call connected.
A man’s voice, as cold as frost, ca through the receiver, "Who?"
Alia could only respond, "It’s ."
The coldness on the other end seed to thaw, and the voice sounded sowhat aggrieved, "Alia, you said you would co back."
Alia was stunned; it wasn’t Godfery Shaw on the other end, it was Julius Shaw.
Why was Julius Shaw holding Godfery’s phone?
At that mont, Alia couldn’t think any further.
Godfery Shaw’s long wait in the Imperial Garden had negated the effects of his dication, leaving him in a semi-lucid state. He asked again, "Alia, you promised you’d co back."
Although it sounded like a tender request, there was a latent hostility, as if sothing unpredictable might happen if Alia didn’t return.
Alia composed herself, "My legs make it difficult to move. Co to 32 Old Town instead."
After Alia spoke, there was a sudden loud bang on the other end, as if sothing was knocked over.
She was about to ask when she heard an eager voice, "Alia, are you inviting to your ho?"
Alia said, "...Sort of."
"Okay, I’m on my way. Alia, wait for ."
After the call, Alia returned the phone to Emma Lewis, "Emma, go ho and rest."
Emma Lewis said angrily, "Hmph, I’m leaving."
Emma Lewis left Alia’s small house but couldn’t leave at ease, so she turned to the next door.
She knocked on the door, then went straight in and said to Hailey Smith, "I’m staying here tonight."
Hailey Smith was taken aback, "You... want to stay here?"
Emma Lewis retorted angrily, "What, I don’t mind you being guys; do you mind being a girl?"
Hailey Smith, a little intimidated by Emma, tugged on her brother Basil Smith’s sleeve, "Bro, she wouldn’t actually stay here to beat you up, would she?"
Emma Lewis: "..."
Basil Smith: "..."
The room had just one bed and one sofa.
Hailey Smith had originally planned to sleep on the sofa while her brother took the bed.
Now Emma was here.
Hailey Smith worried his brother might get beaten up and suggested, "Bro, why don’t you sleep on the floor?"
Basil Smith was just about to get up.
Emma Lewis, with bravado, said, "No need, I’ll sleep on the floor."
Her eyes seed to say she wouldn’t take things from weaker people.
Hailey Smith felt his brother was being belittled again; since childhood in the orphanage, many thought his brother was frail like a girl.
Emma Lewis laid out a floor mat and lay down to sleep, conserving her energy. If there was any noise next door, she’d rush over to help in ti.
Basil Smith slept on the bed and, for the usually composed him, had a restless sleep.
...
Next door at 32.
Shortly after Alia finished the call, there was a knock on the door.
Emily Allen answered the door and let Godfery Shaw in.
Alia Wright felt very conflicted about this person now.
The person she once held dear in her heart had beco two n.
She did not wish to discuss matters of the heart with anyone; she felt reborn into a vendetta where love had no place, so once she realized her intentions with Godfery Shaw were off, she imdiately wanted to withdraw.
But Julius Shaw was different from Godfery Shaw.
Julius Shaw’s ntal state was obviously problematic.
Alia Wright had long noticed that his emotions were uncontrollable, an indignant and sickly obsession.
Alia couldn’t accept the normal Godfery Shaw approaching her.
However, she could accept the abnormal Julius Shaw getting close.
Just as she only allowed those who already lived in twisted suffering, like Emily Allen and Julius Shaw, to approach her.
This wasn’t love, but rather empathy and pity she felt for them.
Just like the pity she felt for herself.
Soon as Julius Shaw entered, he looked at her legs.
Alia imdiately said, "Julius Shaw, there’s just one thing: you must not use drugs to control my movents any longer."
Godfery Shaw gazed at Alia Wright, listening to her words without responding.
Alia t his gaze, "If you don’t let do what I need to, I will die. If I’m dead, we can’t live together anymore."
Alia’s eyes were firm, stating a fact: if she couldn’t fulfill her vengeance, indeed she would die.
In his unstable state, Godfery Shaw was not afraid of death; he even welcod dying with Alia.
However, he wanted even more to live together with Alia.
Under this gaze, Godfery Shaw asked, "You want to live with together?"
"Yes, if that’s what you want."
Just like taking in Emily Allen, she was just taking in another.
Godfery Shaw liked Alia’s calm deanor, and like soone bewitched, he unconsciously nodded, "Okay, I agree."
Alia felt relieved; she knew that people with overly obsessive minds often can’t control their thoughts.
Alia gave Julius Shaw a leather cord bracelet, "This is for you to wear. If you can’t control your thoughts, pretend it’s a lock, and it will bind your out-of-control mind."
Godfery Shaw suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at the bracelet, "Is this... a gift from Alia to ?"
Alia was montarily taken aback; it was a gift from the Cloudglow Design Departnt for VIPs—she just happened to have one at ho.
Though not, it was indeed personally designed by her.
So Alia said, "Yes, it’s a gift from to you."
Godfery Shaw held the bracelet, his composure faltering.
Alia gave him a gift!!!
