Addicted To Love

Hearing the coldness in her tone, Courtney thought that Amelia was angry with her for leaving without saying goodbye so she tried her best to coax her over the phone, "Honey, I'm sorry. I know it's my fault but don't worry, I'll be home early so I can accompany you."

Perhaps it was because she was so preoccupied in her own thoughts coupled with her misery but sullenly, she responded, "I don't need company."

Amelia wasn't childish by any standard. Sometimes, she would snap but she rarely ever lashed out. So upon hearing Amelia's ungratefulness, Courtney grew furious. She roared, "Amelia, what is it with you today? You're being so annoying! Where the hell are you anyway? I'll go where you are so I can apologize to you!"

Upon hearing this, Amelia felt a little hope arise in her heart. She asked tentatively, "Courtney, if you come here, can you take me with you?"

"Sure, just give me the address," Courtney replied bluntly.

After giving Courtney the address, Amelia was in a much better mood now. Standing in front of the French window, she patiently waited for Courtney.

When Courtney finally arrived, Amelia was surprised to see that not only did she not come alone but she also rode with Lucian to come here!

"I thought you were..." Amelia's voice trailed off. She thought Courtney was picking her up. She wondered why Courtney would come here with Lucian. However, she decided to not say anything upon glancing at him.

"Amelia, Lucian asked me to come and live with you." Courtney was very ent

ture of feelings surging in his heart. He hated talking to her like that as he felt that it hurt him even more than it did her.

Just then, he received a call from the hospital telling him that he needed to be there as soon as Shelly woke up.

The An Group was a mess. Edmund and Jonny were in a power struggle over the An Group. Meanwhile, Lucian was just waiting for the right time to attack and weaken Edmund's power so he could finally terminate his marriage with Shelly.

Shelly was confined in the biggest hospital in the city. As she lay in her bed, she looked out the window, her eyes blank. When she heard about what was going on in the An Group, sadness immediately filled her.

She was the one who had offered help to the Zhan Group when they fell into a crisis. Their agreement was that if Lucian married her, the An Group would help the Zhan Group through their crisis. However, with the way things were going, Lucian would hate her more let alone fall in love with her.

"Shelly, I cooked some porridge for you. You need to eat something since you just woke up," Emma gently said as she made her way to Shelly's bed.

Shelly cast a hateful look at her and accused, "I bet your son garnered a lot of your support for what he did, huh?"

As soon as she woke up, the first thing she did was call Edmund. Even though the person she really wanted to see first was Lucian, she knew that the person who was going to listen to her was Edmund. Despite everything, the person she still trusted the most was him.
