    Chapter 4 His Long Lost Love


    “Oh em gee, REALLY?” Be’s jaw hung open in shock.


    She pulled Olivia close and whispered excitedly, “Didn’t you say that the CEO of the Evans Group


    wasn’t interested in women? Sounds like he might have a secret love! AND she’s the future CEO of our


    Olivia patted Be’s hand with a smile. “You really should try to be more informed about these things,


    Be. How can you work in


    the CEO’s office and not know all this hot


    gossip?”


    “Well c’mon, hurry up and tell me now, I’m


    all ears!” Be said, quickly tugging on


    Olivia’s sleeve.


    Olivia lowered her voice. “Mr. Evans and


    the chairman’s daughter were childhood


    sweethearts. Rumor has it, Mr. Evans


    proposed to Ms. Moore five years ago.


    But she turned him down to focus on her


    studies, so they split up. They haven’t even


    contacted each other for thest five years.


    But as soon as Ms. Moore returned to the


    country, Mr. Evans personally went to the airport to pick her up. That’s enough to


    prove that Mr. Evans still has strong feelings


    for her.”


    Be covered her mou th, widened her big round eyes, and almost eximed, “Oh my


    god! It’s like the perfect sweet romance!”


    Amelia’s heart ached in her chest, and gloom spread through her face.


    So the truth was… James terminated their


    contract early because his long lost love, his


    real love, hade back.


    But if he already had a childhood love, why did he buy her for one night five years ago?


    And after sleeping with her just once,


    he even forced her to sign a contract to


    continue their “rtionship”.


    And whenever he touched her, he went so


    crazy that he couldn’t control himself and keep his hands off her, spending hours and hours in bed


    together.


    Amelia couldn’t believe it. Just as she was


    about to ask Olivia where she had heard


    this gossip, the elevator opened with a ding!


    The executive assistant of the chairman,

    Lily, and several department managers walked out first. Right after, a man in a


    luxurious suite with a cold aura followed.


    He had a face and body carved and chiseled by the gods, with the same aloof


    temperament.


    He seemed almost unreal, like he’d stepped


    out of an oil painting, a mix of elegance and coldness, always keeping a distance from


    others.


    Amelia would recognize that face


    anywhere. ‘James…’


    Lily gestured to the people inside. “Mr.


    Evans, Ms. Moore, here is the president’s office. This way please.”


    ‘Why is he here?’ she thought, watching


    James turn and offer his hand to someone


    in the elevator. Then, a delicate, fair hand


    was ced in his, and a woman stepped


    out.


    The moment Amelia saw her face, she finally understood why James bought her for the night and


    made their contract, all


    those years ago.


    Except for a few minor differences, Amelia had almost the exact same face as James’


    former lover.


    She used to think James would return her feelings one day and love her for who she was, but now she


    knew… she was just a temporary substitute.


    Her chest suddenly tightened, and pain swept through her body, turning her face pale.


    Be immediately asked with concern, “Amelia? What’s wrong? Are you feeling


    sic k?”


    Amelia shook her head gently, and before


    Be could say anything else, Lily led the


    two of them over.


    She quickly lowered her eyes and didn’t dare look them in the eyes. She couldn’t


    stop her hands from trembling on the keyboard as Lily introduced them one by


    one.


    7/9


    “This is the president’s office. The assistants here are avable to help you with anything you need,


    Ms. Moore.”


    Ms. Moore nodded, looked at everyone, and said softly, “Good morning, everyone. My name’s Emily


    Moore. Starting today, I’ll be your new CEO.”


    ‘Emily…’


    Amelia couldn’t seem to get enough air into


    her lungs, and she felt lightheaded.


    Memories started flooding back of her and


    James, their bodies writhing and entwined


    in bed.


    8/9


    Every time, he’d softly call out a name that she could never fully hear, and she always hoped it was


    hers-Amelia…


    Only now did she realize that he was not calling out to her, but to Emily…


    Amelia clenched her fists, and her long nails dug into her flesh, but she felt no pain.


    The suffocating feelings of humiliation and abandonment overwhelmed her, and she couldn’t fight her


    tears.


    She was so stu pid to have fallen in love with


    James, a man who would never ever love


    her back.
