Chapter 5 Excitement turned to Shock

He wanted to protect Amelia for the rest of his life.

He couldn’t bear to see her all alone in the middle of the night, and her pain was unbeknownst to everyone…

Right this moment, there were a sound of footsteps at the door.

Denzel’s eyes turned cold. He gently put Amelia’s hand down and quickly pulled the needles out of her body. Then he opened the window and jumped out!

Fortunately, her room was on the first floor of the villa. After Denzel jumped out, he looked back at the window reluctantly and strode away.

Amelia, on the other hand, seemed to have had a long dream. It felt calm and tranquil in her dream. The only thing she remembered clearly was with a man with a wounded look in his eyes. She stayed with him for the rest of her life and never left him.

When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn.

There were two people standing in front of her.

One of them was Jane Zhang. Looking at the second person, Amelia felt extremely disappointed.

It was Alfred Gao, a man who had been pursuing her for a long time.

It wasn’t the person she wanted to see. It wasn’t ‘him’…

When Jane saw Amelia wake up, she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a lingering fear, “Amelia, you finally woke up. Did you known that you had a hear attack last night? You almost died!”

Amelia nodded, but suddenly she remembered in a daze that there seemed to be a man who saved her…

His hands were very warm…

And yet, his heart was cold…

“Who was it…”

At this time, Jane pointed to Alfred and said, “If it weren’t for the fact that Alfred and I had something to discuss with you, we wouldn’t had known that you were having a heart attack!”

“It’s all thanks to Alfred, who saved your life by doing acupuncture using his silver needles. You’d better thank him properly!” Jane added.

“Alfred? Was it Alfred who saved me last night?” Amelia wondered.

“Then the man in my dream…”

In that moment, Amelia’s face turned pallid.

It turned out that it was a dream after all.

When she woke up from her dream, that person had left too…

Alfred looked at the delicate Amelia with a flash of heated desire in his eyes. He said sincerely, “Amelia, do you know that you are seriously ill? If it weren’t for Auntie and myself coming over last night, the consequences would be unimaginable…”

“Thank you” Amelia squeezed out a smile and thanked him.

At this time, Jane took the opportunity to say, “Amelia, don’t you understand Alfred’s feelings for you? He is your savior now…”

“Mom, I will repay him for saving my life in the future,” Amelia said. She was little morose and could not help interrupting Jane.

Jane, however, was not reconciled and said, “Well, let’s not talk about this for now. By the way, aren’t we going to the Helping Hands Medical Center to talk about the deal today? Yesterday, I talked to Alfred, and he immediately promised to help us.”

Amelia couldn’t help but glance at Alfred.

Alfred smiled and said, “Haha, I have good relations with the Helping Hands Medical Center. The host, Ellen Wang, is my buddy’s friend. I have already set up a meeting with them and we can sign the contract in the afternoon.”

“Really?” There was a flash of light in Amelia’s eyes.

The Mo family’s line of work was in the pharmaceutical business. In the early years, many major hospitals and medical centers in Jiang city would collaborate with their family just so they could meet one of the Mo family’s beautiful women during their negotiation.

However, since Amelia and Denzel got married, the family’s successes had been failing. Their pharmaceutical business had not been prosperous, and their deals with the hospitals and the medical clinics had not been very smooth.

For the collaboration with Helping Hands Medical Center, Amelia had asked a lot of people for favors.

However, that Ellen Wang didn’t show any sign as if she could be moved at all.

Amelia didn’t expect Alfred to have such powerful connections.

If this negotiation was successful, she would really owe him a big favor.

“Thank you. Thank you for your hard work that afternoon,” Amelia said gratefully to Alfred.

Seeing that Amelia’s attitude towards him became softened, Alfred felt even more happy.

“Hahaha, there is no woman that I can’t get!” He thought arrogantly.

Amelia struggled to get up, but suddenly, she let out a cry.

She took out a silver needle from her underarms! The first half of this silver needle was scarlet in colour…

“Eh?” Amelia couldn’t help but be surprised.

Alfred’s eyes narrowed.

He immediately laughed and said, “Ha ha ha, It’s my fault for being careless. I was busy healing you last night, that I must have missed pulling out one needle.”

After that, he took the silver needle and threw it into the trash can carelessly.

As she looked at Alfred’s carless movements, she suddenly had a trace of doubt in her heart.

She politely sent Alfred away and agreed to meet him at the entrance of the Helping Hands Medical Center at three o’clock in the afternoon.

After they left the room, Amelia struggled to get up, but mysteriously, she looked at through the trash can and took out the silver needle that Alfred threw away.

She felt that there was something strange with this silver needle.

“Why did he have such scarlet-tinted silver needles?”

She couldn’t think of anything for a moment, but carefully put the silver needle into the bag.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Denzel appeared in Helping Hands Medical Center. He stood in front of the entrance and called Ellen on his phone. She said that she would arrive at the clinic soon and asked Denzel to wait for few minutes.

Denzel had lost his beloved grandfather, plus the divorce with Amelia hit him hard. He seemed to have gone through so much misfortune overnight, to the point his stubble was not shaved, which made him seem completely bedraggled.

He went to the bathroom to tidy up his appearance.

However, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside.

There was also a triumphant voice. “Hahaha, brother, I’ve got the medicine. Thank you, It’s up to you whether you can take down Amelia tonight”.

Amelia?

Denzel frowned. When he heard the voice again, he knew that it belonged to Alfred.

Alfred had been chasing after Amelia all these years as if he did not care for Denzel’s existence at all.

Denzel knew Alfred’s intentions.

“What does this guy want to do to Amelia?”

He stepped into the compartment of the toilet.

Alfred walked into the bathroom and said proudly, “Ha Ha! I heard that Amelia had signed a divorce agreement with her useless husband. Last night, I inexplicably became her lifesaver. Today, I will help her take over the negotiations of the Helping Hands Medical Center. I’ll do her such a great favor, she’ll throw herself at me.”

“When the time comes, all I need to do is treat her to a candlelight dinner, and then put this into her red wine. She’ll have to give in to me. It’s said that despite being married to that useless husband for three years, She’s still a virgin, hahaha…”

Hearing all of this, Denzel was irritated!

This Alfred!

“How dare he use such a dirty trick against Amelia?”

“Bang!”

The door of the stall burst open in an instant!

Alfred turned around and saw Denzel standing behind him. He was stunned. “Denzel Lu…”

Denzel’s face was as cold as ice. He rushed forward and punched him in the face!

Alfred had been indulging in alcohol and women for many years. His wanton lifestyle made him unhealthy and weak. How could he match up against Denzel?

‘Fuck! How dare you hit me?’ Alfred was enraged. He dropped his phone and hit Denzel!

However, he was extremely cunning. He even secretly slipped the bottle of liquid medicine into Denzel’s pocket, while Denzel was beating him up.

Denzel was so angry that he didn’t notice it at all.

All of a sudden, Alfred unleashed all his strength. He forcefully pushed Denzel away and ran outside.

Denzel chased after him.

But as soon as they arrived at the hall, Denzel heard a surprised voice coming from behind. “Denzel! Why are you here?”

When Denzel turned around, it turned out to be the pure and beautiful Amelia!

Jane was there too.

Alfred rushed to the side of Amelia and said angrily, “Amelia, look, how do you know this piece of garbage? This guy, I don’t know how he heard that we are going to come here, but he was hiding in the toilet and then ambushed me!”

Looking at Alfred’s swollen nose and face, Amelia had a strange feeling in her heart.

She looked at Denzel.

He looked poor and disheveled, but his eyes were full of arrogance and recklessness!

Jane was furious immediately.

“Denzel! You are worse than a beast! Did you come here to take revenge on Amelia after the divorce? Or did you choose to be here to shame our Mo family so that the Helping Hands Medical Centre will look down on us and cancel the deal? You are really wicked!”

Hearing this, Amelia felt even more upset!

“Denzel, are you really such a person?”

“You have disappointed me so much!”

“It’s a pity that last night, I thought…” Amelia’s mind was in a mess.

Ignoring Jane, Denzel rushed straight towards Alfred!

However, he was pulled back!

It was Amelia!

Amelia looked at the irrational Denzel in front of her, and her disappointment was even more intense.

She suddenly raise her hand and slapped Denzel’s face!

All the people present were shocked by this sudden act.

Denzel covered his face and looked at Amelia with burning eyes. It seemed like something broke in his heart!

On the other hand, Amelia’s voice choked and her face was full of desperation. “Denzel! Do you know what you are doing? Are you crazy?”

“Well, It was I who wronged you! If you are a man, come and hit me! Why are you beating Alfred up?” She said vehemently.

“He’s my savior! Where were you when I was about to die last night? When you were absent, he saved me!”

“I hoped that you were a person full of passion and courage, but it doesn’t seems so anymore!”

“You’ve changed. You’ve changed so much that I can’t believe it! You’re horrifying…”

When Denzel heard her pained words, he fell into a state of grief!

“Amelia, do you know what you’re talking about?”

“Do you know why I hit Alfred?”

“Do you know who saved you last night?”

“You don’t know anything!”

“You don’t understand anything, and yet you hit me!” Denzel’s heart was in pain as he said these words to himself.

Hehe…

“Who have I been protecting and caring for, for the past ten years?”

It was not a woman, but a poisonous snake who returned kindness with ingratitude!

Seeing Denzel’s wounded eyes again, Amelia’s heart suddenly softened.

“Did I go too far?”

“That’s right. Everyone knows that he loves me…” She thought.

“It was reasonable for him to do anything extreme given I cut off the relationship with him in such a heartless manner…”

“However, I really don’t like it when he’s like that…”

Alfred, who was standing by, was proudly watching the ‘show’. He felt that he ought to score full marks for his ambitious scheme..

But when he saw Amelia’s eyes suddenly full of sadness, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

This b*tchy couple still had feelings for each other!

What the F*ck!

“Then, don’t fault me for what I’m about to do!” He thought.

“Amelia, today, I’ll show you what a heartless wolf has been beside you for the past ten years! Look at what he wants to do to you!”

Alfred suddenly rushed to Denzel and took out something from his pocket.

And when Amelia saw the item, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning!

Her family business was in the pharmaceutical industry. How could she not know what it was!

“Denzel, you b*stard you’ve reached such a level!”

“He wanted to do something to me…” She was so disappointed at this revelation.

In the past three years, she had not slept with him in the same room. Unexpectedly, he had so much hatred in his heart!

The way Amelia looked at Denzel had completely changed!

She became vicious and cruel!

She grabbed the vial liquid and threw it out of the door. Then, she slapped him again!

She slapped Denzel’s face!

“Slap!”

“Denzel, from now on, I don’t want to see you anymore! Leave!”

There was another slap on his face, which made Denzel wide awake.

All of a sudden, he laughed coldly, and a hint of coldness appeared on his face.

“Amelia, if that’s what you want!”

“Don’t forget!”

“It’s me, Denzel, who divorced you first! You and I have nothing to do with each other anymore!”

After Denzel finished speaking, he strode outside.

Just after taking two steps, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure appeared in front of the clinic in a hurry.

When Alfred saw her, he immediately became excited. “Look, the spokesperson for the clinic is coming. Let’s go, let’s hurry up and go!”

Amelia was being dragged forward by Jane, as if she had just woken up from a dream. She followed her in a daze.

Passing by Denzel, Jane shoved him aside with her body. “Get out of here! Obedient dogs don’t block the way!”

Instead, Denzel stopped and did not leave.

Jane whispered to Amelia, “Fortunately, Director Wang didn’t see the farce just now, or it would be really shameful. It’s all that b*stards fault! I’ll get some people to kill him later!”

In the blink of an eye, Alfred and the other two had already stood in front of Ellen. Alfred smiled humbly and stretched out his hand, said, “Director Wang, I’m Alfred, I was introduced to you by an acquaintance. I’ve brought someone from the Mo family to sign a contract with you today. Thank You! You’re so busy but…”

However, before he could finish his words, he saw that Ellen walked past him without stopping.

She was walking towards someone else.

She walked up to the sorrowful man and smiled charmingly, like a flower in full bloom.

“Young Master!”
