Addicted To Love

But it was a good thing. Amelia felt much better now, her mood had lightened up. Michael tried to play it off as a joke but in fact, his concern was genuine.

She knew that the harder she tried to comfort herself alone, the more depressed and desperate she would feel.

"Have you really broken up with Sasha?" She didn't know what else to say to him so she ended up bringing up a topic that would upset both her and Michael.

"If I had known how good-tempered you were in nature maybe I wouldn't have ignored some matters in the first place," Michael said casually.

"What do you mean?" Amelia asked doubtfully. As she looked at Michael's profile, she couldn't help but admire his handsome face. He had a pointed and tall nose that only made him look more charming especially under the light.

He looked elegant even when he wasn't saying anything—there was just something about him that made him stand out.

"I'm sorry for what I did to you," Michael said apologetically.

Amelia didn't want to pry anymore. She figured Michael was probably still upset from having to break up with his girlfriend.

"I just found out on my way to the beach that how pathetic I have been." Amelia's gaze fell on the sunset, its shadow dimming her face beautifully.

She frowned and asked, "Darren, did you call a doctor for dad?"

While she genuinely cared about Nicholas, she also purposely tried to play down her concern for him.

"Mrs. Amelia, you don't have to worry. I've already arranged everything." Darren couldn't help but be moved on behalf of Nicholas for Amelia's concern. Then he asked, "Mrs. Amelia, are you going out?"

"Yes." Amelia nodded. She didn't want to tell anyone that Lucian was forbidding her to see Mark so she just made up an excuse—she said she was just going to get something from the SJ Garden.

When Amelia said this, she realized that it was a good excuse to pack up some of her things that were left in the SJ Garden and at the same time, she could also see Mark.

Darren had a strange look on his face that he quickly replaced with a smile. He offered, "Did you leave a lot of things in the SJ Garden? I can drive you there."

"No, thanks. I can drive by myself." With that, Amelia hurriedly waved her hand. She didn't want Darren to report anything to Nicholas if something else happened in the SJ Garden.
