Amelia looked at the familiar surroundings. She knew this villa well. She brought Jonny into the hall and made him a cup of tea. Her actions resembled a hostess rather than a guest.
Jonny quietly stared at her moving around the hall with complicated emotions in his heart.
"Congratulations, Jonny." Amelia sat opposite to Jonny and gave him a polite smile.
Jonny took a sip of tea and raised his cup, almost as if he was mocking himself. "Congratulations!" He knew that Amelia was too naive to understand why he was so engrossed in fighting with his father.
"It's good news. Congratulations!" Amelia gazed at him with a sincere smile.
"Then, I'll take your blessing." A bitter smile formed on Jonny's lips.
Amelia's brows drew closer in concern when she saw that lonely smile on his face. "So, will you continue to be a designer?"
Ever since Jonny took over the An Group, he had been busy. She wondered how he would manage to keep up with his hobby.
"You know me well." Jonny's lips curved up to flash a big grin to Amelia.
A trace of blush formed on Amelia's cheeks. "Of course, I do! You are a fashion designer."
"Rest assured. I know Lucian is the only one in your heart." Jonny wanted to tease her, but his heart couldn't help but be jealous.
Amelia frowned when Lucian was mentioned.
"What's wrong? You look pale." Jonny fixed his eyes on changed expressions, thinking she was sick.
Amelia wasn't paying attention at first, but a thought suddenly stuck in her head. Maybe she could ask Jonny's help? She excitedly looked at him.
"Jonny, I have been here for a week." When she didn't receive any response, she pouted.
"Don't you think this place has a pleasant environment?" Jonny narrowed his eyes at her and pretended to be confused.
"I'm not happy. I just want to get out of here." She couldn't tell him that she wanted to leave the place related to Lucian.
