Chapter 137_ The final laugh
Allison squealed in excitement and ran into her father’s embrace. “I love you so much daddy! you did it!”
The mayor patted her back gently, his daughter’s happiness was his happiness.
“I don’t keep false promises”
Mrs Williams walked into the room, she shook her head at the sight before her, her husband and children can do anything they want even if it means ruining other people’s lives to get what they want.
Allison’s smile vanished she pulled away from her father “Dad I will be upstairs” she announced and was about to leave.
“Don’t leave yet Allison” Mrs Williams called back.
Allison rolled her eyes and folded her arm beneath her bossom. “I Know what you are about to say and trust me I’m not interested in any way!”
“You should be! you all have committed a huge crime by separating those two… don’t you have any empathy?”
Allison glanced briefly at her dad “Dad please deal with this” she nonchalantly commented and walked out.
“You should be correcting her mistakes and not helping her instead”
The mayor raised a brow “If you have a problem with her happiness, you are very free to leave this house or just pretend to be supportive”
..
Cecile massaged her head in worry, Liam was in a bad condition and Amelia was nowhere to be found.
“Daddy will big bro be okay?” Chloe innocently asked to receive a nod from her dad.
Mark wiped his face with a white neat face towel, he was in a tough situation whereby his wife and son were being hospitalized.
There was a little commotion as three guys hurriedly came into the building.
Cecile and mark turned their attention to them, they recognized them to be Liam’s friends.
“Uncle.. aunt what is the doctor saying about his condition?” Dylan inquired with a worried tone.
The door to the ward opened, the doctor came out.”Is he going to be fine?” James inquired
“He lost a lot of blood… I can’t say anything just yet because he is under strict observation…”
Cecile placed her palm over her mouth muffling her cries. she wondered which of their enemies had casted such an evil eye on their happiness.
“And what about my wife?” mark asked worriedly.
“She is okay and awake you can see her now” the doctor announced and almost immediately mark dashed off.
Dylan turned to Steven and James, he knew something about this accident was fishy.
“I will find out what caused this accident… you both will go out and find Liam’s wife by the looks of things she is missing”
They nodded to his words and hurriedly left the hospital. Dylan turned to Cecile who was still trying to reach Amelia’s line.
“Aunt.. don’t worry about anything we will do our best to find your daughter and at the same time… I will make whoever that is responsible for Liam’s accident pay dearly”
..
Amelia ran in front of a moving vehicle, she waved her hand for the driver to stop. The car made a screeching noise before it came to an abrupt halt.
She glanced back and saw the men coming after her, without wasting much time she entered the car.
“Move! what are you waiting for?!” she yelled at the guy who gulped down nervously and started the car, he sped off and soon joined the highway.
Amelia threw her head back on the headrest, she noticed the guy was staring weirdly at her.
“I can swear that you didn’t pick a mad lady or a thief” she blurted out which somehow amused him.
He offered her a napkin which she accepted and wiped her tears…
“Who were they?” he questioned.
He was a bit startled when she suddenly bursted out into tears.
Regardless of who he was she still cried her eyes out, what was the use of living if everything she had was all gone?
The car stopped by the roadside, he glanced at her when her cries became too much.
“miss.. can you tell me what’s wrong? I’m heading to the airport and I don’t want to miss my flight”
Amelia sniffed back her tears and raised her head to meet his eyes.
He was a bit taken aback, he recognized her as the popular tv actress that his sister daisy loves talking about.
“You are Amelia Hart!” he exclaimed in shock and surprise.
Amelia was in no mood to smile at a fan, what happened back at the hotel flashed back to her mind, it all felt like a dream… and what about the look of hatred and disgust she saw in Liam’s eyes…
She cursed her fate so much…. why does everyone she loves have to leave her at some point?NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
She wiped her tears and stared ahead “I’m not weak… Liam hates me so much now that he sent his guards after me to get rid of me… take me to the airport”
Jason had a weird look on his face, he had no idea of what she was talking about, but he obliged since he needed to be at a business meeting..
.
Few days later after the accident…..
Louisa handed Dylan a mug of hot tea, they’ve been searching for Amelia for days now.
Dylan stared at the mug with a raised brow, he still didn’t know why exactly she was acting all nice to him…
“Clara told me everything” She said after a while, Dylan hissed in annoyance.. that Clara gave him off.
“Hmm cool” he muttered and accepted the mug from her.
Louisa pulled her fingers, she was still contemplating on how to say what was on her mind.
Dylan noticed her uneasiness “Do you want to say something?”
Louisa licked her lower lips “Yeah… Clara told me that you both weren’t really in a relationship… so does that mean that our engagement is still valid?”
Dylan was intrigued, he loved where this was heading and he decided to play dumb.
“I don’t get what you are trying to say Louisa”
Louisa released a deep breath “Are we still engaged?”
Dylan had a teasing smile on his lips, he simply shrugged his shoulder and took a sip out of his cup..
“It all depends on you Lou… what do you really want?”
Louisa’s heart skipped a beat, what does she really want? he knew well what her answer will be so why was he still asking?
“I think we should call it off” she said in a really low tone.
Dylan raised his mug to her and placed it back on the table..
“Is that what you really want? anyway I think I have a better solution… how about we give our relationship a trial for one month and see where it leads us to”
..
Brianna touched Liam’s face and sobbed gently,”Liam why have you been avoiding my questions? where is Amelia?”
Liam tried his best to stay still but the mere mention of her name seemed to give his pretense away.
Liam raised his hands and pulled off his oxygen mask..
“Mum… if you want to see me recover then you have to promise me that you won’t mention that name ever again”
Cecile touched his arm and caressed it lovingly.
“Liam dear… please don’t punish me this way.. I’m very certain that you know about Amelia’s whereabout”
Liam groaned out loudly as he clutched his chest gasping for air…
“Liam!.. what is wrong?” Brianna asked worriedly, the door pushed open as the doctor came in to examine Liam..
“Please you all can leave now… he is still so weak”
A nurse showed them their way out, however when they got out they were surprised to see Allison and her brother waiting patiently for them.
“You!” Cecile pointed at Allison and pulled her hair backwards, Allison flinched from the sharp pain as she tried to free herself.
