Farren Austin’s low voice echoed through the locker room, as if the words meant something.
Grapes?
Amelia Bright pondered for a moment and frowned, saying
“Is it wine? That’s not what wine tastes like, is it?”
She was completely oblivious to the ironic look on Farren Austin’s face in the mirror behind her, a look that was almost a fuse light away from exploding.
“Come here.”
“Huh?” Amelia Bright froze for a moment, “What’s wrong?”
“Get a new one.”
“You don’t like this one, huh?”
“Yeah.”
“Then I’ll get you a new one.”
Amelia Bright was about to go to get another dress when she was suddenly yanked by a strong force, followed by the whole person was pushed against the closet door, her back was almost shattered, and the door collided with a loud ‘bang’, she exclaimed in pain.
“Ah …”
“You can change the clothes if you don’t like them, but not the person.”
When she opened her eyes, Farren Austin pressed one hand on her shoulder, pinning her firmly to the closet door, the cold eyes as if they were sucking black holes emitting a cold chill.
“What are you doing?”
“Where did you go last night?”
“I …” Amelia Bright’s face turned white all of a sudden.
Farren Austin’s military intelligence was top-notch, did he already know about his cheating last night?
A good man does not want to lose.
She made an immediate decision, while pinching her thighs with her hands, biting her lips and squeezing out a teary-eyed look, choking back a sob.
“You know all about it?”
Farren Austin’s brow furrowed and his grip on her shoulder became heavier.
“What happened last night was an accident …,” Amelia Bright sniffled heavily, her eyes downcast.
“I … I drank too much because of the company, and I also wanted to perform in front of Dad, so I was greedy and just drank a little with the client, did someone tell you something? I can definitely not betray you.”
“A client?” Farren Austin sneered, “Which client, and what’s his name?”
Amelia Bright got a lump in her throat, she couldn’t give up Bohdi Olson’s name.
“Don’t want to talk?”
Farren Austin’s face was cold, and he took her chin, forcing her to look up at him, “Tell me, who is Bohdi Olson?”
Amelia Bright felt her jaw almost crushed and looked up in pain to see a condescending stare that submerged her entire body in the dim light like an abyss.
She still underestimated this man’s ability to find out information? He even knew about her being with Bohdi Olson last night?
“You, you misunderstand …” Amelia Bright’s mind raced, “I don’t know Bohdi Olson at all, I just met him once before at Halyn’s birthday party and you were there that time.”
“So what happened last night?” Farren Austin pressed.
“Last night …” Amelia Bright was not sure how much Farren Austin knew, but she felt that Farren Austin could not have done something like let someone take a video, otherwise she would have several The life has long been accounted for outside, still waiting for him to come back to question it?
So she tried to say, “I just went out with him to drink two glasses of wine, but nothing else, at most he sent me back to the hotel, we both drunk, you should know, drunk people actually can not do anything, if …”
She gritted her teeth, “If someone told you that we both went into a room, that’s not really the whole truth, after all, after all, you didn’t see it with your own eyes, did you?”
“Did you?” Farren Austin’s eyes were cold to the core.
Caught off guard, Amelia Bright’s shoulders tightened abruptly and she let out a cry of surprise as the sound of fabric being shredded rang through the air with a “sting” that echoed through the small dressing room.
“What are you doing?”
“Are you trying to say you didn’t do anything last night?” Farren Austin didn’t make any next move, just stared over her shoulder, furious.
Following his gaze, Amelia Bright saw the hickeys on her shoulder.
Dense hickeys that couldn’t be denied if they tried.
“This … this …”
She could not make up any more nonsense, the guilt stirred in her heart, half the time, she finally said feebly that
“Sorry, maybe you won’t believe me when I say this, but what happened last night was really an accident, I drank too much, so something irreparable happened, I have no way to explain and accept all the consequences.”
Whether she was forced to say nothing, or really apologetic in her heart, Farren Austin squeezed her shoulder hand tightened a few points, saw her pained look, but finally let go of the hand and turned away.
The expected anger did not come, Amelia Bright froze for a moment while her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Farren Austin should be a person who can’t have sand in his eyes, after such a big incident, he actually let himself go so easily?
She picked up the clothes on the ground, something fell out of the pocket, wavering on her feet, she froze for a moment, squatting down to pick it up again.
The moment she saw the handwriting on it, it was like a pot of cold water splashed down from the head, her eyes were staring straight.
What the hell? This note she had left on the bedside of the inn this morning, how could it be in Farren Austin’s hand.
The faint smell of alcohol came from the clothes in her hand, and she snapped out of it.
Was it Farren Austin last night?
When she went out after him to ask for clarification, Farren Austin had already gone out.
The whole dinner time, with the Austin family present, she couldn’t ask anything, she just had to repent her mistake this time with her actions, one after another, and give Farren Austin a dish.
“The melon is fresh, Farren, try it.”
Farren Austin didn’t pay any attention to her, his chopsticks reaching for the egg rolls next to him.
Amelia Bright was quick to grab the egg roll and put it in front of him, “Let me help you.”
“I’m not so far gone that I can’t take care of myself.”
A word that froze the atmosphere at the table.
Erlina Lee and Halyn Austin both exchanged a look, both with stunned faces.
Usually at the dinner table, Farren Austin and Amelia Bright two people to be more tacit understanding, but also often love show people’s scalps, they were used to it, today this is a farce again?
Amelia Bright also embarrassed, half a long time to explain.
“I didn’t mean that.”
Farren Austin frowned, his face clearly hanging a few points of displeasure.
Amelia Bright followed Farren Austin back to her room with a lot of apprehension.
When she returned to her room, she peeked at Farren Austin’s face, which was almost pulled to the floor.
“Do you drink tea?” She asked.
Farren Austin doesn’t respond.
“Jasmine tea, I brought it back from Miyun town.”
Farren Austin’s face sinks even deeper as he dares to mention Miyun.
“The innkeeper’s wife gave it to me, gave me two cans, if you don’t drink it, I’ll give it to Adjutant Xun tomorrow morning when he comes.”
Farren Austin turned the book with a rustling sound.
Seeing how badly he took Joe, Amelia Bright also became impatient and heavily set aside the tin can containing jasmine tea, annoyed, and said
“Farren Austin, are you done with this?”
