Chapter 270 The Reunion She looked at the man she loved deeply, and her heart stung. “Go to bed.
You must’ve been exhausted after running around all day.” Lamont’s words were thoughtful. Amelie
nodded and then didn’t say anything in response. She was thirsty, and when she was about to pour a
ss of water, Lamont suddenly approached her. “How are you doing abroad?” Lamont’s words took
Amelie by surprise. “Not bad.” Amelie answered stiffly, dodging eye contact. “By the way, there is one
more thing that you may not know. Jeff returned to his Kappa family and… was injured.” Amelie looked
at him in shock. “Howe?” “That’s what I know. You can go and visit him if you have the time.” The
next day, Amelie came to a vi in the suburbs ording to the address in the text message. There
was a road outside the vi. After Amelie got out of the car, she walked towards the vi’s gate. As
soon as she arrived, she saw Emilee watering and cutting up flowers and nts in the yard. “Emilee!”
Amelie was overjoyed as she saw an old friend. Emilee was surprised when she heard the familiar
voice. It took her a few seconds to react, and when she came back to her senses, Amelie had already
pushed open the door of the vi and walked in. “I’m not dreaming! You’re really back, Amelie!” Emilee
chirped in thrill. She fixed her gaze on Amelie in disbelief. “Yeah, you’re not dreaming. I’m really here!”
Amelie confirmed. Then she took Emilee’s hand and walked to a bench, and sat down. “I’m sorry, I left
without saying goodbye at that time, and I didn’t tell you the news until I got on the ne. I just didn’t
want…” Amelie stopped in the middle of her sentence and didn’t know how to continue. “You don’t
need to exin. I understand. I knew you were in a dilemma. How is Mr. Mullen?” Emilee finished it for
her. “You knew?” Amelie was surprised. “Yes, I knew. I am one of the few people that knew why did you
leave. So I understand. I am really happy that you are back.” Emilee pulled Amelie into the house.
“Does Lamont know?” Lamont’s face appeared in Amelie’s head. If Lamont knew why she had left,
maybe it wouldn’t be so hard for him to ept. “I don’t know about that. You are here to shot a movie,
right? I heard you are a famous actor abroad now, and the world-renowned director thinks highly of
you!” Emilee started to ask questions and praise Amelie. “It’s just a coincidence. As long as I can
return, all that is worth it.” The two chatted happily and had a great time. The shoting of the movie
started after two days. Eden had already gone abroad for recuperation, so she could rx for a while.
In the evening, there was a dinner party arranged by the director and the film crew. Amelie didn’t want
to go, but Belen said that an important investor. start over. be at the party, and it might help her to
Amelie didn’t believe it at first, but Rey.. the: ie thing. Eventually, Amelie nodded in agreement. Before
attending the party at night, Amelie deliberately dressed very simply, not wanting to stand out at the
party. She just wanted to make an appearance and didn’t want others to think she was a diva. But she
wouldn’t expect Lamont would be in this party. Amelie spotted him the moment she entered the room.
“Let’s go have a drink with that investor. After that, we just have to wait for a while and leave.” Belen
was very considerate. Amelie nodded and picked up a ss of champagne. After several seconds,
they found the investor. Amelie looked at the man in front of her in confusion. She had never seen the
man before. Could it be because…. Just when A was pondering about the investor, someone Amelie
loathed the most came over.. Although Amelie hadn’t seen him for a year, she was still disgusted when
she looked at his face. Just when she was about to walk past him, the man stopped her. “Why are you
leaving in such a hurry, Ms. Mullen? Are you not happy to see an old friend?” “Old friend? I don’t
understand what you are saying, Mr. Evans. Are we friends? I don’t think so. 1 don’t know you that
well!” Amelie wanted to leave just after she finished her words, yet the man didn’t let her. Amelie was
pi*sed. Just when she was about to scold him, someone appeared in front of her. Amelie took a closer
look and realized it was Lamont. “Have some respect, Mr. Evans. This is a public ce, after all. You
don’t want to be in the news because of harassing women, right?” Albert’s heart shriveled up in fear by
Lamont’s threat. “Very good, Mr. Byron. Hope we won’t run into each other again.” Albert walked
away hurriedly while gritting his teeth. Before leaving, he eyed Amelie up and down, and a meaningful
look crossed his face. It was like he was up to something “Why did youe here? There are so many
people here. If people see you, they will exaggerate things and our names will appear in the hot topic
again.” Amelie was worried. “Don’t worry about it. This is a private party. People won’t know.” 8
Lamont’s tone was confident. Amelie didn’t bring it up again, but she kept her distance from Lamont.
Lamont sensed her movement, but he wasn’t mad. He led them to the investor. Amelie looked at the
man peacefully. The man was over fifty. “This is Mr. Smith. He is the producer of a famous TV show.
That show is pretty famous here.” Lamont briefly introduced. Amelie was stunned. She didn’t expectContent protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
this ordinary-looking man in front of her to be a producer of a famous show. “It’s so nice to meet you,
Mr. Smith. My name is Amelie.” Amelie greeted him politely while holding the champagne ss. “Nice
to meet you, Ms. Mullen. I know who you are. I thought you were just good at acting. But now I met
you, I realized you are breathtakingly beautiful.” People around Amelie were shocked as they heard Mr.
Smith’s praise. “You are too kind, Mr. Smith.” It was the first time they met, and Amelie didn’t want to
act like she was too desperate. Thus, she drank up the champagne in her ss and prepared to leave.
“Wait, Ms. Mullen. I still have something to tell you.” Mr. Smith stopped her.
