Chapter 330: The Necklace And The lrises

Amelia's POV:

Anthony's and Jennifer's visit made me very happy.They just kept proving to me over and over again
that they truly cared about me.

After I reported to them about Larry's most recent condition, Jennifer looked both relieved and ecstatic.

With a big smile, she said, "Amelia, you're awesome.Without you, we wouldn't have been able to deal
with Larry so easily!"

Jennifer's words made me blush.

I quickly said, "No, I can't take all the credit.Everyone helped.Without Morgan and the other wizards,
we wouldn't have developed the magic drug.Moreover, without you two, our plan would never have
succeeded.If you hadn't saved me back then, I would still be locked in that small room in Larry's
house!"

"You're always like this, Amelia," Jennifer scolded.

"You're a wonderful person and you should take credit for it.Anyway, be careful when you meet Larry,
okay? We know how cunning he can be."

Anthony added, "I will send my men to follow you two in secret.They won't let Larry do anything to you."

"Thank you so much, Mr.Jones, Jennifer.I'll do my best."

After I exchanged a few more words with them, Jennifer and Anthony stood up to leave.

However, before closing the door behind them, Anthony suddenly turned around and smiled at me
apologetically.



"I'm sorry, Amelia.I almost forgot something so important.A few days ago, Morgan asked me to deliver
a gift to you, but I wasn't able to find the chance until now."

As he spoke, he gestured at an attendant behind him.

The attendant immediately went to fetch a pink box and handed it to me.I opened my mouth wide in
disbelief, but soon accepted the box excitedly.

"Thank you, Mr.Jones."

Oh, my dear Morgan! I missed him so much! We couldn't be together for the time being, but he had
sent me a gift.

The butterflies in my stomach fluttered with excitement.

"I'm sorry, Amelia.I promise that, after we defeat Larry, you and Morgan can be together without having
to worry anymore," Anthony assured me.

I tried my best to suppress the excitement in my heart.

"I understand, Mr.Jones.The difficulty is only temporary."

"I also firmly believe that," Jennifer echoed with a smile.

"Take care of yourself, Amelia."

Anthony and Jennifer waved goodbye and left.I closed the door and hurried back to my room.

I opened the pink gift box excitedly, my heart pounding against my chest in anticipation.

Inside lay a heart-shaped diamond necklace and a note.



"I love you forever.Thousands of kisses."

I clutched the note tightly, and before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face.

Morgan! It turned out that he felt the same way I did: tortured by our separation.How I missed him! I
scrambled to find a piece of paper and started to jot down my feelings.

"Honey, you are the only reason I hold on," I wrote.

Then, I asked a maid to help me send it to Morgan.Thinking about how I was going to meet Larry
tomorrow, I sighed helplessly and dragged myself to the shower.I planned to go to bed soon so that I
could get up early the next day to get dressed.

Before going to bed, my phone beeped.

It was a message from Larry.It read, "Honey, don't forget about tomorrow's date."

My nose wrinkled in disgust when I read his message.

Swallowing the resentment in my heart, I replied, "Of course, honey."

The following day, I got up early and stripped off my clothes in front of the mirror.I knew that Larry liked
to see me in white, so I chose a white dress from the wardrobe and put it on.Then, I spent half an hour
putting on makeup.

After one last look in the mirror, I nodded and set out to meet Larry.

We had decided to meet in a park.

When I arrived, I found Larry already there, sitting on a bench.He still wore his youthful, handsome
face, which made passers-by stare at him.I sighed inwardly and walked towards him.



"Larry, I hope I didn't keep you waiting."

"Amelia!"

Larry jumped up at once and broke into a charming smile.

"Oh, my God! I've missed you.When are we leaving? I can't stand another day without you!"

Larry's POV:

I didn't know if I was imagining things, but lately, I felt as though I was getting weaker.

Not only did I feel exhausted all the time, but I also felt somewhat powerless, as though I was sick.

Before I left to meet Amelia today, I felt dizzy as I cast the disguise spell on myself.It took me a while
before I felt well enough to walk.I usually practiced black magic to enhance my power.

Recently, however, I didn't dare to practice it too frequently, because it seemed like every time I used
magic, I felt that my energy was flowing out of my body like a stream.

What the hell was going on? I shook my head, trying to get it together.

Using the incantation to scan my body, I didn't find anything unusual.

Alas, maybe I was just getting old.

Time was being unkind to me now, so I had to pick up the pace and execute my plan faster.I had to
take Amelia away as soon as possible.

If what I feared was true and I was indeed getting weaker and weaker, then I couldn't handle the
werewolves anymore.



The second I saw Amelia, I urged her to leave with me.

"Amelia, I can't wait to take you away," I kept saying, staring into her beautiful eyes.

"Will you go with me?"Amelia averted her gaze hesitantly.

"Yes, but I'm not ready yet, Larry..."

Hearing the same answer over and over again, my patience gradually grew thin.

I couldn't help but snap at her, "Why are you still hesitating? Amelia! I've been waiting for you for a very
long time and I can't wait any longer!"

I was out of breath when I finished speaking.

All the color drained from Amelia's face.

Alarmed, I hurried to comfort her.

"Oh, no, honey.I'm sorry.I didn't mean to scare you.I was just too anxious! I will treat you gently from
now on.I promise!"

Amelia struggled in my arms for a while before finally calming down.

"Oh, Larry.It's not that I don't want to go with you.It's just that, whenever I recall the time you
imprisoned me, I get so scared.I think I might have post-traumatic stress disorder, and I need the time
to overcome it."

I held Amelia close and felt her trembling body.I couldn't help but feel remorseful.I had been too
impatient with her.I was painfully aware that I couldn't force her.



Recently, I noticed that more guards were secretly protecting Amelia.I figured they were sent by
Anthony.

If Amelia didn't want to come with me, I couldn't just whisk her away.

To show my sincerity, I took Amelia's hand and led her towards the river bank.

"Honey, I'm sorry.I was in the wrong.Let's cool down by the riverside."

Growing along the riverside were clusters of irises.

When I caught sight of those beautiful flowers, I immediately recalled what Amelia had told me when
we were young.I quickly picked some irises and put them in Amelia's hair.I said with nostalgia, "Amelia,
I remember that the iris is your favorite flower.Wear this, and you'll look as youthful as before!"

Nostalgia washed over me.

I remembered when we were young and in love, I promised her that I would build a big house for her
and plant her favorite irises in the garden.

In that moment, I vowed it wouldn't stay a dream.I would make it a reality for her this time.

Amelia was the love of my life.Even if it meant risking everything, I had to take her away.
