Chapter 520 Firing Back


    The reason Noah didn''t mind Amy''s background was that he didn''t want to be dumped again. If he


    found a girlfriend with a more humble background than him, he reckoned that he could dominate the


    rtionship. Little did he know, Fate had yed a trick on him. Amy might seem to have a more


    humble background, but she was actually a hidden queen, and he didn''t see iting.


    Amy had a gentle and submissive personality. When they were together, she was obedient and listened


    to him, unlike Reba, who was spoiled and temperamental.


    Although his parents never liked Amy and didn''t want him to date her, he liked her character and


    appearance.


    This rtionship was sweeter, and he wasfortable and more at ease than when he dated


    Reba.


    He genuinely liked Amy and even nned to marry her, even if it meant going against his parents.


    Despite that, he never expected that it was Amy who gave up on this rtionship first.


    Noah had only been in two rtionships; the first one ended with Reba breaking up with him, and


    now, Amy ended their rtionship.


    Am I really such a terrible person? he asked himself, tugging at his hair and sweeping everything off


    the table in frustration.


    The thought of not being able to see Amy''s gentle smile or hear her sweet nothings made his heart


    ache uncontrobly.


    I... love Amy more than I imagined, he realized, slumping into a chair in agony, desperately trying to


    calm himself down.


    He wanted to salvage this rtionship and change Amy''s mind.


    I don''t want to break up. Never!


    Meanwhile, Amy went shopping with Madeline. Worried about her injured foot, Madeline advised her to


    wait in the car, but she felt ufortable and insisted on apanying her.


    Her sprained ankle wasn''t serious, and the medicine Madeline gave her was very effective. Her injury


    had already improved a lot, but what hurt more than her injured foot was her heart.


    She wasn''t as carefree as she imed to be. If she really was as carefree as she imed, she would


    have broken up with Noah a long time ago.


    It wasn''t news to her that Noah didn''t care enough about her, and she had been aware of this for a


    while already. Although they were together because he pursued her, she quickly realized that Noah had


    ced himself in a dominant position by being arrogant, self-centered, and rarely considered her


    feelings.


    Nevertheless, Noah was outstanding, exactly the type of man that she liked—tall, handsome, and


    capable, he didn''t drink, gamble, or flirt around with women. It was rare to find a man of his age with


    such qualities.


    She told herself that no one was perfect, and she was not, too. So, she gently tolerated Noah''s


    shorings and thought that as long as she wholeheartedly devoted herself, she could touch him and


    make him love her more every day.


    As it was proven, she had over-simplified the situation.


    They were originally from two different worlds, so it was a mistake for them to be together, and now,


    this mistake had been corrected.


    This is for the better, Amy thought.


    After Amy finished shopping with Madeline and left the mall, she suddenly heard someone behind them


    say, "Hey, isn''t this Amy-boo?"


    Yes.


    That person had called her Amy-boo instead of Amy, but the voice was very familiar, so she knew that


    he was calling her. She stopped in her tracks and turned around to look. Not far behind her stood


    Noah''s two childhood friends and Reba.


    Standing between Noah''s two friends, Reba wore a white dress and was adorned with delicate


    makeup. Her long hair was flowing gorgeously,plimenting her rosy lips and beautiful eyes. She


    looked like a princess being guarded by her protectors.


    Amy only nced briefly at Reba and turned to Donovan Brighton, who had just spoken as one of


    Noah''s friends, and snapped, "Using someone''s name to mock them is a prank that only children pull.


    Are you still a child at your age?"


    Stunned, Donovan didn''t expect Amy to fire back.


    This girlfriend of Noah''s had a humble background, and although she had a gentle personality and was


    obedient to Noah, Donovan and the others had never approved of her.


    For people like them, it was a piece of cake to find a woman who would be obedient to them. As long


    as they were willing to spend money, they could easily find a thousand or eight hundred women.


    However, what they needed was not a woman who would be obedient to them, but one from a


    prestigious family who could help their own family.


    They thought that Noah was just fooling around with Amy, and once the novelty wore off, he would


    break up with her. Unexpectedly, when they tried to match up Noah and Reba after her return, Noah


    told them that he wouldn''t reconcile with her.


    The one he loved was Amy, and he wanted to marry her.


    Everyone was shocked, thinking that he had lost his mind.


    Reba was the best girl in their circle. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also talented in


    everything and the only daughter of the Richardson Family.


    If Noah married Reba, the Richardsons and the Ellis Family would form a strong alliance, and Noah


    wouldn''t have to work as hard as before. Despite that, Noah firmly stated that he wouldn''t marry


    Reba, and his future wife would be no one but Amy.


    They assumed that Noah was deeply hurt by the incident where the Richardson Family refused to help


    when the Ellis Family faced a crisis and tried to talk him around by telling him that he and Reba


    were just dating as a couple at that time. So, it was understandable that the Richardson Family didn''t


    help. But if he married her, their families would be connected, and the Richardson Family would extend


    their help without hesitation if the Ellis Family encountered any problems in the future.


    As Reba was childhood friends with Noah and Donovan, Reba had asked him and their other


    friends to mediate the situation, and of course, they would be delighted to see them get married.


    To their dismay, Noah refused to reconcile with her despite their efforts.


    Seeing that a perfect match—a match made in heaven—turned into a missed opportunity in the end,


    they found it a shame and med Amy for it. As a result, their disgruntlement with her soared.


    It so happened that Donovan and Mathias Fitzgerald were apanying Reba out of the mall


    when they noticed Amy limping in front of them, and Donovan couldn''t help but make a sarcastic


    remark.


    On more than a few asions, they had thrown sarcastic remarks at Amy before, and she would


    pretend not to hear them. Every time it happened, Noah rarely spoke and always carried a cold and


    distant attitude, never bothering to stop them from making these jokes.

    Every time, Donovan and Mathias would get away with it in triumph, gleeful that their sarcasm ced


    them above Amy.


    This was the first time Amy fired back, and Donovan was so shocked that he forgot what he should say.


    Reba nced at Amy and smiled. "Miss Atkinson, don''t mind Donovan. He''s just joking. What


    happened to your leg? I noticed that you''re walking a bit strangely. Are you hurt?"


    Amy gave her a nonchnt look and ignored her, saying to Madeline, "Maddie, let''s go."


    All of a sudden, fury got the better of Donovan. "Hey, Amy-boo, what''s with your attitude? You''re just a


    poor girl from a small family and have no manners. With that character of yours, do you imagine that


    you could marry Noah? Keep dreaming!"
