Chapter: Chapter 23: Why Are You Doing This To Me?*Adrian* After being thrown out of the party hall by the security guards, who I knew were simply following the orders given by the man who was standing next to Amelia like her boyfriend or husband, I decided to start heading back home, as I didn't want to cause any more of a scene or be more humiliated than I already had been.Getting into my car, I was about to start driving back home when I remembered that I didn't come to the event alone; I had actually arrived with Melissa.Taking my phone, I immediately placed a call across to her while at the same time wondering why she hadn't come out even after seeing me being dragged out like someone who was crazy.After ringing for some minutes, the call hung up on its own as she didn't pick up. Without hesitating, I placed a call across to her over and over again, but still she didn't pick up. Noticing that she was probably angry at me for hugging Amelia and wouldn't pick up my calls, I dropped the phone and ignited my car and zoomed off;

Chapter: Chapter 22: It Felt So Good*Amelia* After leaving New York City and getting myself treated, the last thing I had wanted to do was to go back to New York City.Since I inherited a very huge amount of money and properties from my mother after she passed away, I still had enough money with me even after everything I spent on my treatment.Not wanting the money to waste away, I decided to invest it into what I knew how to do best, which is modelling. But unlike Melissa, who decided to become a model after graduating from the modelling school we both attended, I decided to open a modelling firm where not only will I be able to become a model, but I will also have other models working for my firm.At first, everything was going so slow, until James decided to step in and help me out.Not only did he invest in my modelling firm, but he also advised the shareholders of his two tech companies to also invest in my firm, which they all did, and right after that, I started getting deals from many famous brands around the

Chapter: Chapter 21: Help Me Take Adrian Down*Adrian* No word was enough for me to explain how I felt the very moment that I heard Amelia's voice. After all these years, I couldn't believe that not only was she very much alive, just like I had always thought, but she was also the one standing on that podium, looking as beautiful as ever.Given how happy and excited I was to see her, I felt like rushing towards her at the podium and hugging her before everyone and also telling her how much I have missed her, but then I held myself back as I didn't want to create a scene and also ruin her event.Despite how happy and excited I was, I still couldn't help but wonder how she transformed from the woman who depended on me for almost everything to the CEO of one of the biggest modelling firms, and given that she was able to invite all these famous people to the opening ceremony of her company here in New York City, I could already tell that she was no longer the Amelia that I knew three years ago, and whoever was backing her was no or

Chapter: Chapter 20: Someone That Looks Like Amelia* Two Years Later * *Adrian* It has been three good years since Amelia disappeared and has been nowhere to be found, and since then, I have turned the whole of New York City and its surroundings upside down while trying to find her. Even if it's not to get back with her, at least for me to know how she has been all this while.All the people who I have talked to about her, including Doctor Andrew, have told me only one thing, which is to forget about her and move on with my life, as the probability of her already being dead is very high. But as for me, I couldn't bring myself to believe that she was already dead, even though I knew that she had only six months remaining to live and that the six months had gone by for over four times since she disappeared, I still have this strong feeling that she's still alive, and almost every night, I dream of the good times we had together as a couple, even though most of those times, I was pretending to be in love with her in order to be able

So in order to avoid any issues, Adrian had asked him his favourite game, and when he told him, he called James and asked him to buy it and bring it to one of Edward's mansions, where he was with Dave.Getti

If you don't believe me, then find him so that you can run a DNA test and know if I'm lying or not," Amelia said to Edward with a serious tone, and from both her tone and facial expression, Edward could already tell that she was not joking."If what you are saying is true, then why the hell did you keep him away from me all this while?
