“Of course I will. But you really should find a bridesmaid who isn't married yet. I'll visit you tomorrow and talk to you more about it.”
“Okay. See you tomorrow.”
Hanging up the phone, Amelia grinned widely. “Tiff and Derrick's wedding has been set. I guess they finally won over Mrs. Hisson.”
“Are you happy now?”
Amelia nodded because she was really happy.
Her husband loved her, her son was obedient, her in-laws had chosen to forgive her, and her best friend was getting married. It was one good news after the other. She felt as though all the misfortunes she had suffered before were a lifetime ago.
With that good news in mind, she quickly fell asleep.
The next day, Amelia dressed plainly before heading out. To her surprise, she saw Sean waiting downstairs.
“Hey, Amy. Can I call you that?” Sean stared at her warmly.
Amelia smiled sincerely. “Of course you can. You're my brother, after all.”
Sean shrugged mischievously. “Do you have time, Amy? Walk with me. I have something I want to
discuss with you.”
Amelia said yes.
Both of them strolled out of the neighborhood, and she asked, “Do you want breakfast? How about I chat with you while we eat?”
“It's fine. I've already eaten. The reason I'm here early, Amy, is because I'm wondering if you can convince Mom to go home. I know she listens to you, so much so that Amelia's and my words can't get through her. If she doesn't go back home this time, my dad's going to strip me of my right to inherit the company and Amelia of her allowance. I want to do my best for the company, but he gets the final say on company-related matters. If Mom doesn't come back, both of us will be left with nothing. He has a woman outside the family. I'm not happy about it, but I got no other choice. Right now, I'm not powerful enough to snatch the ownership of the company from his hand. So... can you help me convince Mom?”
Amelia glanced at him.
Sean smiled. “I know the Hutton family has let you down. But I don't think grudges should be passed down from one generation to the next. Isn't that right?”
Amelia lowered her head and agreed, “I'll try, but I can't guarantee if she'll listen to me. After all, it's her marriage. She decides what she wants to do. We can't restrict her freedom based on what we want, either. If she isn't happy, I don't think we'll be happy.”
Sean nodded. “You're right. Just do your best, then.”
“Okay.”
Sean pointed at a car not far from them. “My car's over there. Where do you want to go? I can drive you there.”
Amelia didn't reject the offer.
Upon arriving at Tiffany's neighborhood, she opened the door and said, “Thanks for driving me here, Sean. I'll do my best to advise Mom. After all, all of you are a family. I'm just someone who showed up not too long ago. It's obvious who she has a closer connection with.”
Sean stretched his hand and grabbed her. When she turned back, he let go and smiled. “I've always wanted an older sister, especially one who's as generous and thoughtful as you. Really. More importantly, you look a lot like Mom, even more so than Amelia. Just looking at you reminds me of Mom. I'll be counting on you in the future as your little brother.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Amelia laughed out loud.
“I'll be leaving now. Talk to you later.” She got out of the car and left. Sean remained in the car as he watched her leave. There was an inscrutable look in his eyes.
