Chapter 62 STAYING TOGETHER
- Amelia POV
- “Don't tell me you're here to pull your dirty stunt again” My anger flared in an instant, scowling directly into his eyes as he towered above me. Staring at me, his lips curved into a mischievous smirk. “Has anyone ever told you that you look cuter when you're angry?” I felt my heart make a quick movement at his words. However, I refused to be affected. “Answer my…” His domineering and husky voice interrupted my words. I held down my tongue immediately and listened to him. “I'm not here because of you. And as a matter of fact, I never expected to bump into you here” I watched his lips as he speaks with my elbows creases beneath my breasts. 'If he's not here because of me, then what's he doing here?' I thought in my mind. “I'm leaving this country” He continued, the corner of his eyes crinkled as he narrowed his eyes a bit. 'Have I heard wrong? He's leaving the country to where? And why is he telling me this? The last time I checked, Callie is his girlfriend, not me.' Suddenly, his insignificant chuckle brought me back to reality, “You should say whatever it is you have in your mind, I'll answer you. Moreover, you look more pretty with your black hair” He said cautiously in a gentle voice. Still, I held my tongue tightly, hoping he would just be precise with where he was going. He began again, “I'm sorry for all those times, I hope you can forgive me” Hearing his short sentence, my eyes widened in awe. Does he have a twin brother too? Is this his twin brother? No, I'm confused now. The jerk I used to know would never apologize.
- “And I hope Callie would come around soon. When that time comes, please tell her I'm truly sorry” Looking up at his impeccable face, his eyebrows were smooth, making him look a lot less domineering. His eyes were twinkling with light while he was looking remorseful. I lowered my gaze and quickly sought what to say, but unfortunately, I had no words, so I just looked up at his face and continued to stare at him in silence. Moments later, his lips curled up in a smug smile, “I'll take my leave now. Take good care of yourself” He passed by me and walked off. “Where are you going?” The words had flown out of my mouth before I could stop myself. He slowly halted his pace, then turned around to face me. “To another part of this country. To continue my education” He answered with a carefree smile on his lips. My throat constricted that I found it so difficult to gulp. He put forward a step to where I was, “I hope to see you again in the future, Snow White” He was grinning, but the solemnity in those few words of his made my heartthrob. He lifted a hand and pulled my cheek playfully, causing the tears in my eyes to drop. It was then I realized my eyes were already swimming in tears. “Bye,” He said softly then waved at my back, “Bye sir” With that, he walked away step by step. Watching his receding figure, it felt as if my heart was breaking into a million pieces inside my chest, and it was never going to be whole again. “Now I see your variety” I wiped off the tears on my cheeks quickly then spun around. “Sorry about that, sir” My voice was hoarse, so I let out a small cough. “What a nice catch, anyway” His lips were curled up in a mocking and sarcastic smile. Secretly, I glared coldly at him then raised my head, defiantly. “He's not my boyfriend” I stated clearly, couldn't help but feel morose. “Who said he's your boyfriend?” He taunted then proceed with his pace, not after casting a contemptuous look at me. My hands clenched into fists as I watched his back. 'Can I ever deal with this man?' I muttered irresolutely to myself, drew a deep breath, then also began to walk in his direction.
