Chapter 388: Finally Realized


    His fingers were slender, but they weren''t pretty due to the huge knuckles.


    In addition to that, there was a thinyer of callus on his palm, which wasn''t something one would see


    on the hands of a pampered individual.


    Amora felt her head go nk before another pair of hands appeared in her head.


    Yes, this is exactly how I remember that pair of hands! The fair and slender fingers...


    The huge knuckles that looked like they were sculpted out of marble...


    The fingernails that look so smooth and shiny...


    Amora was so shocked that she froze on the spot.


    "Sha? What''s wrong? Um...You know what? Maybe we should just keep the money in our savings


    instead.The Rory family is going to start over again soon, and we''ll be needing a lot of money then,"


    Lance said, thinking she was reluctant to hand over the money.


    He knew Amora''s family would need a lot of money as Rufus would be released from prison soon, so


    he decided not to ept the money she offered.


    After he left the house, Amora staggered for a bit and threw herself on the couch as tears rolled down


    her cheeks.


    Why didn''t I believe it? I had a clear view of it back in Corleon, but I kept telling myself that it was just in


    my head, and that it wasn''t real.


    Damn it, how could I lie to myself about something I saw with my own eyes? Amora clutched her


    heaving chest tightly as she felt an overwhelmingbination of joy, pain, and shock surge through


    her.


    Regardless of what happened between them, he had always been the one she truly liked deep down


    inside.


    She had liked him for so many years that she couldn''t possibly let go of those feelings so easily.


    But...


    Trevor erased his memories through hypnosis, didn''t he? So, why did hee back to me all of a


    sudden in such a fashion? Amora''s mind went nk at the thought of that, and she simplyy on the


    couch for what seemed like eternity.


    The sky was dark by the time Lance had bought the groceries and brought Vivian home.


    "Hmm? Why are the lights off? Could your mommy have gone out or something?"


    Lance mumbled when he saw that the lights were off in the house.


    Vivian climbed out of his arms when she heard that and ran into the house.


    "I''ll go check inside! Maybe Mommy''s in her bedroom!"


    Naturally, Lance knew that was unlikely the case as Amora was often busy with errands even at night.


    He then unpacked the groceries in the kitchen and took about twenty minutes to make dinner.


    As Lance was about to serve the poached salmon he had made, a slender hand reached out and


    passed him a te from behind.


    "Here you go..."


    "Ah, Sha, you''re back!"


    Lance jumped in surprise when he saw Amora standing behind him.


    Amora then took a step back, and that was when he noticed her grim expression and the redness in


    her eyes.


    "Sha?"


    Lance gave her a strange look.


    Amora averted her gaze and said, "I''m fine.Go ahead and serve the food.I''ll go get Vivi."


    She then ran out of the kitchen in a hurry, leaving a confused Lance rooted to the spot.


    What on earth has gotten into her? She''s dressed in her casual clothes, which means she''s been home


    the whole time...


    If that''s the case, why didn''t she turn on the lights? The sound of Vivian''s voice snapped Lance out of


    his train of thoughts, and he quickly ted the dishes before serving them up.


    After that, the three of them sat down at the table and had dinner as usual.


    Lance was a little hesitant at first but decided to speak up anyway.

    "Sha, you don''t have to tell Andy about the extra money you made, right? I mean, that''s tens of


    millions! With Uncleing out of prison soon, we''re probably going to need that money."


    Amora, who was feeding Vivian at the time, looked up at him upon hearing that.


    "Of course not.Why do you ask?"


    It''s not like I wanted to bring this up, okay? With that thought in mind, Lance quickly avoided her gaze


    and said, "Oh, no reason in particr! I mean, it''s a lot of money, so I was worried that Andy would find


    out about it.Just thought I''d remind you, that''s all!"


    Amora paused in her actions.


    Remind me? Is it Lance reminding me, or is it the other guy? Amora felt her heart that had finally


    calmed down begin to ache once again, and it hurt so bad that she could barely hold her spoon steady.


    Lance went to bed in his room shortly after dinner.


    Amora gave Vivian a bath and was about to tuck her in as well when she asked all of a sudden, "Are


    you feeling sad, Mommy?"
