Amelia's POV Mirabel and I walked towards the salon and she whispered something to the hair stylist. He nodded his head in understanding before he moved closer to me to start working on my hair. After about half an hour later, I was done and the nail technicians worked on my nails. We finally went out of the salon and Mirabel swiped the card again. I stared at my just painted nails and I smiled. It looks really good. Mirabel and I walked out of the mall and dumped all the shopping bag in the back seat of the car. "Am I the only one who is really hungry?", Mirabel asked as soon as we were settled on our seats inside the car. "I am not hungry though", I said and my stomach quickly betrayed me as it made a rumbling sound. "So much for you not being hungry", Mirabel said with a grin and I smiled awkwardly before placing my hand on my stomach. Now I can't even avoid spending more money outside on food, all thanks to this stomach. "It's not dinner time though", I tried rejecting
Amelia's POV We are finally heading home and Mirabel kept smiling as we joked about the man who had constituted nuisance in the ice cream shop. Mirabel parked the car properly in the compound and we headed towards the front door of William's house. "I still can't believe you ate that much ice cream though", I said in amazement. "I wish we went on with that challenge, I would have asked for something really big from you", Mirabel said and I laughed. "Don't be like that, uhn?", I nudged at her and she whined with a pout. "Or we should bet on another thing now?", she asked and I knew I wouldn't dare. "No, thanks", I said as I pulled the door open. Mirabel went into a fit of laughter and I smiled as I looked at her. "Where have you been?", a voice sounded in front of me and I looked up to meet William's gaze on me. He looked away when his mother started talking, his eyes really sharp. "We went to the mall, then the ice-", Mirabel started saying and I smiled but she was soon cu
William's POV "Do you like her, William?", Mother asked when she made sure that all my concentration was on her. "Sincerely?", I asked, looking back at her and she nodded. "I don't know", I replied and she sighed. "What about what happened this evening?", mother asked again and I got confused. "What about it?", I asked back with a frown. "Why did you think you were really annoyed at her? Was it really because of the time we came back or was it because of her dress?", mother asked and I looked at her intently. "Your questions are too much and really boring", I replied with a small smile and she laughed. "You will say that again", she said, smacking me on the arm playfully. "I guess I just thought it looked immoral", I replied in a serious tone and mother looked up at me. "Are you sure that's it?", she asked and I sighed. "The dress was too showy, okay? The bad people out there, especially the guys might what to take advantage of her", I said quickly and mother laughed. "W
Amelia's POV I woke up to the knock on my door. I groaned as I stood up from the bed. I went to the door immediately and pulled it open and I saw the person I least expected there. William. He was already dressed in a grey designer suit. It is quite obvious that it is a rare designer piece actually. "Hi", he said in a very calm tone and I looked at him with peering eyes. "Hi", I replied back anyways. "Mother is about to leave now, I thought you should know", he said and my eyes went wide. I have not even taken my bath! "Give me some minutes, please. I will be down in a few", I said quickly before closing the door loudly. I rushed to the bathroom to have a really quick bath. William's POV I stared at the door that had been shut right on my face. Wow, I can't even do anything about it. I sighed before going back downstairs. Mother was already waiting as she sat on one of the couches in the sitting room with her travelling bag beside her. "Where is she?", she asked im
Amelia's POV I got into the house and an helpless sigh escaped my lips. I wonder what he wants to talk about now. "Oh Amelia!", Mary called out and I looked up at her. "Would you like to have your breakfast now?", she asked and I nodded. "Yes thank you, Mary", I replied and she smiled before disappearing or 'escaping' into the kitchen. ... I am just coming downstairs after having a quick nap in the afternoon. I looked up at the time and my eyes went wide. It's almost dinner time already. I guess I took a really long nap. The front door opened and I saw William walking in. He looks stressed out. "Hey", he said when he reached my front. "Hey", I replied back "Let me take a quick shower and we can have dinner together", he said and I just stared at him. He smiled awkwardly before walking up the stairs. I stared at his back before taking a sharp breath. William's POV I got back downstairs, already dressed in a new pair of clothes and Amelia was nowhere to he found. I walked
William's POV I stared at the Amelia who was in front of me and my jaw dropped. She is dressed in a white shirt and nude coloured skirt that reaches just above her knee. The skirt is just so firm around her body that it brings out her not so tiny waist. The shirt is a little loose on her body but nonetheless, it still looked so stunning on her. Her hair has been tied into a ponytail and she left just a few strand to shape out the right side of her face. The strands curled at the end and held the right side of her jaw in it. Also, her face-- is that makeup I see? My eyes went wide and I saw Amelia gulp. "What's wrong? Is the makeup too much? Is it the lipstick?", she asked and I just continued staring at her, like a dumb person. "Gosh! I knew it. I told Mirabel I didn't want any makeup. Now-", she talked quickly with a frown, not even looking up at me and I quickly spoke up. "No!", I said suddenly and even I am surprised at the tone and loudness of my voice. I looked down at t
Amelia's POV "Amelia", William suddenly called me before I could access the whole building from where I stood. I glared at him before moving my feet. Then, my legs went all jelly. I almost tripped right now. I looked down at the heels I am not so used to with a frown. "Do you want to find your way around yourself?", William asked in a very sharp tone and I looked up at him. What's with his tone now? Acting all bossy already? I walked as fast as I could towards him and he turned towards the building and started walking when I was closer to him, not even sparing me a glance anymore. Whatever. I stood by his right side while Scott was on the left as we walked in. I looked back and I saw men in black suits as tailing after us. I took a deep breath as I looked at my front. People were moving around in the big lobby but I could not help but notice how they would move quicky away from William's path and bow their head in respect as he passed by them. I am guessing most of them are
Amelia's POV I stared at the mobile phone in my hand with wide eyes. "When did you get this?", I asked, looking up at William. "Uh, on Monday", he replied and I tried to remember what happened on Monday. "And depending on the events on Monday night, I could not give it to you", he added and that was when I remembered. I had gone to the mall with Mirabel on Monday and I came home with that short dress. "Oh", I said before looking up at him again. "Come on, switch it on", he urged by raising his right hand upward, towards the box in my hand. I looked at the phone which was still inside the box in my hand before looking back at him again. "Thank you", I said in a calm tone and he stared at me before nodding his head. I walked away from his table, hoping to check out the phone when he talked all of a sudden. "Do you even know how that thing works?", he asked and I knew immediately that he was trying to tease me. "No, why don't you teach me?", I turned back and asked in a ster
