The Return of the Disguised Princess

Chapter 131

Chapter 131 She Has Been Drugged

After Emilee fell asleep, Amelie’s entire body was covered in tears and snot.

Because she had maintained a posture for a long time, when she broke free from Emilee, her entire body was already sore.

Amelie called the receptionist to deliver a clean set of clothes. She still had to return to the banquet hall once more.

This was because the banquet brought together the members of the Five Great Families in Oakland for the first time in five years.

She decided to make herself known. Regardless of whether it was a scandal or a good deed, she had to let all the famous people in Oakland know her.

When she went back, the banquet was close to the end. Fortunately, there were many guests here who had no intention of leaving.

“Oh! Ms. Gladstone is really busy today.”

Amelie must have not checked the date when she went out today. She disliked Cynthia

but met her twice a day.

It was as if she was afraid that she would lose her memory and forget what this woman.

was called.

However, it was also quite interesting. Cynthia had just accompanied Lamont here, and now she was drinking with Jeff.

Amelie really admired such a woman.

The moment Cynthia saw Amelie, her secret movements were extremely conspicuous. In order to show her relationship with Jeff, she almost stuck to him.

Amelie could not hold back her laughter, but she was not laughing at Cynthia. Instead, she was laughing at Jeff. The reluctance on his face was really too funny.

However, she did not have the time to watch the two do PDA today. Her goal today was

the chairman of Oakland Club, Alex Hampson.

Alex was Luciana’s second uncle, and he had many service industries under him.

She wanted to cooperate with Alex intentionally.

The Hampson family had a total of two sons. One had no intention of doing business, so the business would sooner or later belong to his granddaughter, Luciana.

And Alex was interesting. He clearly had such a huge property to inherit, but he wanted to establish his own business and start from scratch.

What Amelie admired most in her life was a person like him.

However, the person standing beside him seemed to be Lamont.

Was Lamont also talking about cooperation with Alex?

She absolutely could not let them cooperate with each other.

Amelie rushed forward with small steps and grabbed Lamont’s arm all of a sudden.

Lamont’s entire body stiffened and trembled. His face was filled with impatience.

Alex seemed to understand everything.

“You guys chat. We’ll talk again when we have the chance.”

Lamont still wanted to keep him, but he had already gone far away.

“Amelie!”

Seeing that he had left, Amelie pouted unhappily.

“He left before the good show that I meticulously prepared started. How boring!”

Looking at Lamont’s eyes which had already turned red from anger, she secretly felt

good in her heart.

“Mr. Byron, is my acting perfect? Are you going to give me a pass in the final of the audition in a few days?”

Lamont dusted his arm, still very disgusted.

“Did you go out without taking any medicine?”

Amelie smiled. Anyway, she had already made him unhappy just now. Now, as long as she pretended that she did not care or became angry no matter what he said, he would

definitely not succeed.

“What? Do you miss me as you haven’t seen me for a long time? Do you want to return to my side?”

Lamont was close to Amelie’s ear. When he said this, Amelie almost vomited.

Amelie would not be Lamont’s match when it came to who was more thick–faced.

Her hands were clasped together, and she chanted many times in her heart, I’m not angry. Not angry! He can’t trick me!

“Mr. Byron is really shameless. You dare to say anything. Why don’t you examine yourself in the mirror and see how shameless you’re?”

“Amelie, you don’t want to the hard way, right?”

Amelie was sharp–tongued. She was so confident because she was sure that Lamont would not be able to gain the upper hand in a face–to–face confrontation.

Suddenly, someone slammed into her from behind.

Amelie did not expect such a thing to happen.

She lost her balance in an instant and fell straight to the floor.

She wondered, I’m finished. If I make a show of myself in front of Lamont, he will definitely take this chance to show off for the rest of his life.

Amelie closed her eyes and waited for the bad consequences. She was already thinking about how to escape from the banquet later so that she did not look so awkward.

In the end, she had already closed her eyes and was already waiting to fall to the

ground, but she was caught.

Opening her eyes, Amelie was directly shocked. It was Lamont who had caught her.

She suddenly stood up and broke free from Lamont’s arms. This seemed to be more awkward than falling to the ground.

Amelie clenched her fists tightly. If she found out who had just bumped into her, she would definitely not show any mercy.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Amelie gulped down the wine on the table. There was

no way for her to thank Lamont.

Lamont also did not speak and drank the other glass of wine on the table.

He was also annoyed by his subconscious action.

It was quiet for a few seconds.

Amelie choked and wanted to escape, but she felt dizzy.

She was drugged.

She looked back at the wine glass on the table immediately. There was something wrong with the wine.

Then she looked at Lamont beside her.

“Scum!”

Before she could finish speaking, Amelie fainted. Lamont thought that she was pretending again.

“Amelie, don’t think that you can arouse my sympathy for you just because you are like

this. I…”

Amelie did not react at all. On the contrary, she looked a little painful.

If she wasn’t pretending, could it be that there was something wrong with the wine she had just drunk? Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Lamont picked her up

and unconsciously began to worry.

While walking, he was complaining that Amelie was a woman who always made him

worry.

“I’m thirsty!”

Amelie carelessly rubbed her head against Lamont’s chest and weakly spat out a few

words.

Lamont’s heart trembled again, and he suddenly remembered what had happened five

years ago.

Amelie had a high fever for the whole night and spoke in her sleep all night.

Her tone was also affectedly weak. At that time, she didn’t know how to take care of herself. He didn’t expect that she would still be so after the divorce.

If Lamont hadn’t fed her antipyretic medicine and covered her with the quilt that had constantly been kicked away the whole night, she would probably have become silly from the fever.

In less than a year of divorce, Amelie had changed a lot, from a delicate girl to a domineering elite.

He had not heard Amelie speak in this tone for a long time. This time, he remembered a

lot of things.

How did they get to the point of divorce?

When did he start to hate this woman?

It was probably because he knew that she had killed his grandfather and had ill intentions toward the Byron family.

It was probably because he had enough of her, who would not make a sound when she was being bullied.

But who could say clearly about feelings?

He clearly knew that she was the one who killed his grandfather, but he still could not

control himself and wanted to get close to her.

Amelie began to move again.
