The Return of the Disguised Princess Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Earnest’s Secret

Amelie hurriedly looked around and found that no one was around. She quickly picked up the plate and stuffed it

into her bosom.

She found a corner, held the plate in her palm, and studied it.

“I don’t know who dropped it, but the plate certainly stands for his high status!”

Amelie put the plate to her teeth and bit it.

“Oh! My teeth!”

She hurriedly took a look and found that a mark was left on the plate.

Without a doubt, it was made of gold.

Such a large gold plate was really rare.

She looked around vigilantly. Confirming that no one else was there, she prepared to

leave.

No sooner had she taken a few steps than she saw a familiar figure. To her surprise, it

was Willard’s lover.

Amelie was shocked by the coincidence. Why was she doing here? Could it be possible…

Then she saw another familiar figure out of the corner of her eye. It was Earnest.

The two ran into each other and smiled at the same time.

Amelie instantly tensed up.

What was their relationship? How did they know each other?

She quickly found a hidden place and observed them secretly.

The two just talked at the door without any other actions.

Amelie watched and felt anxious.

What kind of person was Earnest? Why was he related to Willard’s lover? And they agreed to meet here. It was

really weird.

Although Amelie was full of doubts, she didn’t dare to linger.

About ten minutes later, the two separated.

Amelie hurriedly hid aside, for fear of being seen.

It wasn’t until that woman left that she heaved a sigh of relief.

Then she found that her phone picked up a signal.

She immediately called Lamont, hoping that he would come to pick her up.

As soon as she held up her phone, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

“You are really here!”

The speaker was none other than Earnest.

Amelie was startled and wanted to break free, but it was too late.

“How did you…”

“How did I find you? Do you think your petty trick can fool me?”

Earnest said coldly, a trace of indifference flashing in his eyes.

“What do you want? What is your relationship with Willard?”

Aware that she couldn’t escape, Amelie asked straightforwardly.

“I know what you want to know, but you shouldn’t know. Amelie, you shouldn’t have come back. Everything has

changed with your return.”

With that, he sna tched her phone.

“Give me back my phone. You’re restricting my freedom. I’m a member of the Mullen family. Even if we’re not a top

clan, our current power is still not something you can

trifle with.”

Amelie threatened, glaring at him.

“Do you know what you took? It’s evidence of Willard’s crime. It took me several years to get it. Do you know how

much effort I put in?”

Evidence? Evidence against Willard.

Amelie’s eyes widened. She thought that she had heard it wrong.

“You heard me right. What I said is true.”

“Then, what are you…”

“Who am I? I thought Lamont would tell you everything. Ms. Mullen, don’t be too self-righteous. I advise you to be

careful and not be deceived easily.”

With that, Earnest turned around and left.

Amelie looked at the weak man with mixed feelings.

She had a feeling that this strange man was hiding something.

Was he really an enemy of Willard?

Just then, her phone rang on the ground.

She quickly picked it up and found it was Lamont calling.

She told Lamont where she was before she sat aside and waited for him.

On the way back, Amelie looked at the scenery outside the window and felt upset.

“What’s wrong?”

Lamont was a little worried seeing her like this.

“Nothing. I’m just a little tired.”

Amelie quickly explained, trying to cover up the fact that she had met Earnest.

“Why do you suddenly think of coming here to offer incense? I never know you are a

believer.”

Lamont was curious.

It was strange that she came here alone.

“I was just there to pray. Nothing more.”

Amelie tried to sound calm and then fell silent.

About half an hour later, the car stopped at the apartment building.

Noticing her bad condition, Lamont insisted on walking her upstairs.

“I’m fine. You don’t have to.”

“No, I can’t let you go back alone like this.”



Lamont was insistent, and she had to agree.

The two of them then returned to the apartment together.

As soon as she entered the room, Belen came up.

Amelie, where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come back? I was so worried about you.

Belen stepped forward and hugged Amelie.

I’m fine. Didn’t I come back safely? I was just feeling bored and went out for a walk. Don’t think too much about it.

She then walked to the side and put her things on the sofa.

Really?

Belen was skeptical.

Lamont winked at her as a signal for her to leave.

Amelie, since you’re back, I’ll go to get you something to eat. You must be starving, right? Wait for me at home.

The clever woman found herself an excuse and left in a hurry.

Amelie sat down on the sofa, holding a glass of water she had just poured.

What Earnest said kept echoing in her mind.

We have a promise not to keep things from each other.

I… I’m just curious about one thing.

Amelie felt relieved and prepared to tell him everything.

Lamont listened carefully, but his face was getting more and more serious. In the end,

he took Amelie into his arms and held her tightly.

“If that’s the case, this man is far from simple.”

But he claimed you knew him…

Amelie furrowed her brow in suspicion, confusion clouding her thoughts for a moment.

I know him, but I can’t say I’m familiar with him. He presents himself as a charming young man with a heart of

gold, but no one truly knows what goes on in his mind. We’re all in the dark when it comes to Earnest. He may

appear to be investigating Willard, but I don’t know if he and Willard are foes or allies.

That made sense.



You’re right…

Amelie was more confused.
