Chapter 269 I Want To See You

"Josie, let's talk about it after I come back," Lionel replied.

"No, I don't want to. Just tell me, are you going to find her? Are you going to stand by her side whatever
happens to her?"

"I can't leave her alone at this time. It's all my fault," Lionel replied.

"Fine. I will let you go. But you have to tell me that you will come back soon. Right? You won't be
involved with her. You'd better come back to me. I am still your fiancee, right?"

Lionel didn't say anything, and tears began to well up in Josie's eyes. She waved her hand and said,
"You can leave now."

"I'm sorry." After saying that, he turned around and left.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Tears started streaming down her cheeks.
"Amanda, why don't you go to hell?" she cursed.

She had never hated a woman so much. Maybe the biggest enemy of a woman was called love rival or
ex girlfriend.

As soon as Lionel stepped out of the hotpot restaurant, he hailed a taxi and called Amanda.

It was snowing and the air conditioner in the room made her drowsy. Amanda took a shower and sorted
out the documents in the bed. She was going back to the Cheng Group tomorrow. How could she face
all the things in the company?

Since Darren had made up his mind to divorce her, Simon and Charles wouldn't give up as long as
they saw that the case was messed up. Since they didn't have the courage to get even with Darren,
they would surely put the blame on her.



But she didn't care at all.

Amanda told herself to be calm and common because she knew there would be many things she
should take care of as a pregnant woman.

Maggie had changed the medical record of the hospital for her. No one in the hospital knew about her
pregnancy, which satisfied her. It was her own baby, and she didn't want anyone to know.

But in order to conceal the news completely, Amanda had to leave the city for a new environment
where no one would know her.

All of a sudden, her phone buzzed. Amanda answered the phone casually and said, "Hello."

However, there was no reply from the other end of the line. Amanda was surprised by the person who
called her, and then she asked, "Are you back?"

"I'm back. Where are you?" Lionel took a deep breath. He was on his way downtown. After hearing the
news, he couldn't wait to see her and know she was fine.

"No need." As Amanda listened to what Lionel had said, her eyes welled up. Now she had been in such
a situation. Back then she chose to be with Darren, she and Lionel had been impossible.

What was more, Lionel was in a tough situation too. Every member of his family was staring at him with
greedy eyes, and wanted to swallow him when he relaxed his vigilance. How could she let Lionel
intervene in her affairs at this moment?

"Please take care of yourself when you come back. I don't want anything to do with us." Tears
streamed down from her eyes as Amanda was about to hang up. It pained her so much no matter how
long it had passed. She used to be such an innocent and pure girl who cared deeply about him. She
couldn't help crying when she heard a determined voice from the other end of the line, "No, I can find



you, but don't force me to check the room number of all the hotels. I can find you. It's just a matter of
time. If I can't see you, I'm not afraid that anyone would know that I'm looking for you. I'm more
qualified than anyone else to find you."

Afraid that he might make a scene, Amanda told him where her hotel was. He was determined to come
to her. When she was in trouble, he couldn't help but come to her.

"Lionel, what's on your mind?" Amanda said to herself. Amanda looked out of the window. Because of
the warmth of the room, the cold air outside condensed a layer of water vapor from the warm glass,
looking very beautiful. When the water vapor condensed, it would fall down from the window as tears
trickled down.

In no time, Lionel arrived at the hotel where Amanda stayed. Amanda asked him to come in.

The doorbell rang outside. She knew it was him. She took a deep breath. It had been a long time since
she met Lionel last time. What should she feel if she saw him again? No matter what, she had really
liked him at the very beginning. She couldn't accept it after she met him because she liked him before.

But after the accident, Amanda found herself in love with Darren, who had helped her many times, just
like a heroic Knight guarding her.

Amanda had never thought of herself as a princess, or even worse than an ordinary girl. She didn't
have the life of a rich family, but she had to bear the twists and turns of the wealthy families.

Some people said that she was a shrew, a trash in the upper class. But she had no choice. If she was a
little weak, and other people could ruin her easily. She had to be strong because no one protected her.
But only a strong girl like her could understand how happy it was to be protected.



There were several times that Darren risked his life to save her, to save her face, to save her
reputation. Although Amanda tried to play tough before, she couldn't forget Darren's love. As a result,
even now she was in the hotel, there were so many news that Darren didn't want to see her. Even if
she stayed here now, and her scandal was everywhere. It said that Darren who gave up on her, but
Amanda didn't take it seriously. At least, those once wishful thinking happiness belonged to her.

She didn't think that all the good things in the world should belong to her, because she was not jealous
of every person who was better than her. Such good love, such a perfect marriage. As long as she had
it, even if she lost it, she would have nothing to worry about. She didn't want to force others to love her.

Amanda was broad-minded in many things, which, of course, caused a lot of headache to Darren.
Unlike other women, she wouldn't force him to stay, she always gave him the illusion that she didn't
care about him at all, but now, Darren could only hope that the open-minded would make her feel better
for the time being.

When the door was opened from the inside, Lionel saw Amanda standing behind the door. She looked
calm, and her eyes were as deep as the sea. There was no waves in her eyes. Her long black hair was
casually over her shoulders, and her hair became longer. She also brought some baby fat. She was not
as messy as it was said.

It was quiet in the room. Amanda only opened one window. The air circulation was good. But because
the window was opened, the temperature was not too high. And she wore too thin, not caring about the
temperature at all.
