Chapter 1201
Anthea suddenly sat up a little straighter.
Adam seemed to say something to the person beside him, "Okay... I know." This was heard by
Anthea.
Then, Adam put his mobile phone close to his ear again and answered Anthea''s question that had
just been interrupted. "There will be guestsing tonight. I''ll have to have dinner together with
them. I don''t know exactly when I''ll be back. I''m afraid it will be a littlete."
"Oh..." Anthea replied in a muffled voice.
"Do you remember when to eat your dinner by yourself?" Adam reminded her again.
"I know!" Anthea pursed her little mouth and tried to ask him through the phone line, "Just now I
heard the voice of Miss Celestin. She is the guest you mentioned just now, right?"
Adam didn''t hide anything from her. "Yes, I''m here with Amelie and her father. They are my guests."
"Oh!" Anthea scratched the sofa with her fingers.
Adam added, "I have to go downstairs to have dinner now. Be a good girl... Wait for me at home."
"Got it!"
After hanging up at the other end of the line, Adam put down the mobile phone.
He turned around and looked at Amelie Celestin, who was walking in.
When Adam went upstairs and entered the room, he didn''t close the door because this was his own
home. He made the phone call to Anthea in front of the French window. Perhaps because he was
too concentrated on chatting with Anthea, he ignored the surroundings.
Amelie today was not wearing the military uniform. Instead, she was wearing a purple sweater,
which made her less valiant but more charming than usual. Her hair was tied up, while her makeup
was exquisite. Her lips were red, revealing her elegant temperament.
She just knocked on the door symbolically, walked into the room, and stopped behind Adam.
Amelie heard Adam saying "Anthea..." from his mouth. She realized that Adam was talking to his
girlfriend on the phone.
Adam and Amelie grew up together and were childhood friends. They were alsorades-in-arms
in the army. Although the two of them had known each other for so many years, Adam was always
indifferent to Amelie. In fact, Adam was not
talkative, even when he was with his parents or brothers.
It was perhaps because of Adam''s personality that he had acquired his special aura of being cold
and nonchnt. His face was almost expressionless, which could be called a poker face. His eyes
were sharp and piercing. In the army, he was dubbed the Walking Hell-king.
But this time, Amelie felt something different in Adam.
Just now, when Adam was talking on the phone, his faint smile was just like a breeze in the spring.
Where had his poker face gone? His deep voice was also full of warmth, which was something
strange.
Although Amelie had been standing behind Adam, she could still see the reflection on the window.
Adam''s handsome facial features seemed to look gentler now. In the past, he would smile to her
and otherrades-in-arms asionally. But now, his smile was carrying something with it,
something like tenderness, love, and care.
It seemed that while talking to Anthea, Adam''s whole temperament, which used to be cold and
fierce, had be soft.
Amelie had to admit it even if she didn''t want to.
Previously, during the time they spent in the army, Amelie had witnessed how much Adam doted on
Anthea. She felt that Adam''s affection toward Anthea was sincere and passionate. This might be
true love.
Amelie was unsure whether Adam simply treated Anthea like a goodpanion to dispel his
loneliness...
However, she still thought that the little girl called Anthea, who was too young and too naive, was
still not good enough to be Adam''s girlfriend!
The only girl who could stand together with Adam was none other than herself! Amelie thought.
As Adam was talking to Anthea in a gentle voice, Amelie clenched her fists and almost inserted her
fingers into her skin. She was very jealous of them, but she was at the same time not in a hurry. She
was confident that what she wanted would be acquired through hard work. She was determined to
get it. Moreover, Adam was destined to be hers, she thought.
Before returning home, Adam''s mother, Meadow Yamada, had called Amelie. In her words,
Meadow implied that she wished Amelie to be her daughter-inw. In this way, Meadow had
handed her an olive branch of hope. Amelie felt confident and assured, and she intended to start by
getting along well with Adam''s parents.
Thinking of this, Amelie''s clenched fists gradually
rxed.
She patiently waited for Adam to finish the phone call and asked him with a smile, "Adam, were you
talking to Miss Lee?"
"Yes." Adam nodded.
Amelie asked with concern, "By the way, how''s her leg? You know I''ve juste back here and
have been busy with many things in the army. I haven''t had time to visit her!"
"She''s recovering well," Adam replied.
"That''s good!" Amelie smiled with relief and then added softly, "Adam, let''s go downstairs first. Don''t
let uncle and auntie wait too long for us!"
"Okay." Adam replied faintly and followed her down the stairs.
In another residential area of the military region...
After finishing the phone call, Anthea sat stiffly on the sofa, and her delicate eyebrows were almost
frowning like a bush.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" There was a shouting girl in her mind.
Amelie was there too!
Anthea was almost going to lose her temper, while the surface of the sofa was scratched and torn
up by her.
Adam told her that the two families were old friends and it was normal for Amelie and him to meet
and have a meal together. Anthea could not find any fault with this saying.
But when she thought of how her boyfriend was now dining with another girl, Anthea felt very
ufortable, especially for the fact that Amelie had an improper desire for Adam!
Anthea didn''t like Amelie at all. It was during her second meeting with Amelie that she learned about
Amelie''s affection towards Adam.
Anthea was not in the mood to watch the wonderful plot of the South Korean TV dramas, let alone
having her dinner. She was alone at home and felt wretched, but Adam was chatting and dining with
another girl. How irritating it was!
N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
Anthea picked up the mobile phone thrown in the corner of the sofa and dialed the number angrily.
"D*mn it!"
Leonardo cursed from the other end of the line. Anthea was not in a good mood. "You b*stard!"
Leonardo was stunned by her roaring voice. He became less arrogant and asked tenderly, "Eh?
What''s wrong with you, Anthea? Why are you so angry?"
Anthea''s voice was muffled. "Nothing. Golden Leonardo, where are you now?"
"The Inte cafe!" Leonardo replied without any surprise to others, "What are you talking about?
Just now, you called in and my WOW''s qualifying match was in full swing. Now, my Pdin is dead.
He is waiting for his resurrection. I have been scolded to death by my teammates!"
Anthea looked out of the window and snorted at someone. "Golden Leonardo, send me the
address, and I''ll hang out with you!"
In the dining room of the Chin''s Mansion...
The long dining table was full of delicious dishes made by the chef, including seafood, meats,
vegetables, and fruits. The servants stood in the corners of the dining room, waiting for instructions.
Bemy Chin was sitting in the main seat, and on his right side was his wife, Meadow Yamada, as
well as his eldest son, Adam. The guests who were invited were Mr. Celestin and his daughter
Amelie Celestin. The atmosphere of the dinner was very lively, and the aroma of steamed rice was
floating in the air.
Bemy and Mr. Celestin, Amelie''s father, used to work together in a military region when they were
young. Their rtionship was also very good in private.
Right now, the two of them were both dressed in military uniforms again, talking to each other in a
rather cheerful manner. It seemed as if they had endless things to talk about.
Adam was quiet in his ways. After he sat down, most of the time he was in silence. Sitting opposite
him, Amelie interrupted their parents'' conversation from time to time, making the atmosphere
happier.
However, Meadow was the only person who secretly frowned with a worried look.
... She felt helpless.
