Chapter 7
Lamont was so pissed off that he smashed his phone and immediately mobilized all his men to find
Amelie.
He thought, I have no idea. She was by my side for five years, and she is so scheming.
In the blink of an eye, she took half of my family’s assets away.
I don’t have much time. Right now, I am in a hurry to attend a banquet in Oakland.
Whether I can cooperate with the richest man in Oakland depends on it.
Also, it’s Grandma’s birthday. I’m planning on taking her to spend some time in Oakland.
His subordinates had already begun to search for Amelie, and Lamont did not waste another
second. He brought Karina Bradley, his grandma, onto the plane to Oakland.
Amelie was in Oakland. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
A villa of nearly 10 thousand square feet sat at the foot of a hill. It was equipped with an elegant and
unique courtyard and was well–spaced. Although it seemed low–key, it was also obvious that the
ordinary couldn’t afford to live here at all.
In the spacious and bright villa, Amelie was sitting on a leather sofa, sipping a cup of tea. The elegant tea fragrance filled the room.
She took a deep breath and leaned back comfortably, her face full of satisfaction.
She thought, what was I thinking? Why on earth did I suffer for five years?
Why didn’t I stay home and enjoy being pampered?
Even the tea back home is way better than that of the Byron family.
As soon as Daron returned home, he asked the servants to open the window of Amelie’s dusty bedroom.
He also ordered them to purchase a lot of Amelie’s usual supplies as quickly as they could.
The supplies included practically everything, from sheets and curtains to pajamas and skincare products. All of them were from Amelie’s preferred brands.
After everything was settled, Daron went downstairs and looked at the satisfied Amelie on the sofa. His eyes were filled with tenderness.
In the five years without Amelie, her six brothers were always at loggerheads.
Now that Amelie was back, they finally had a common goal.
They wanted nothing but to dote on her completely!
“Amelie, I’ve already called Mom and Dad. They’re on their way back from Australia and won’t be home until tonight. It has been a long day, so go get some sleep.”
Amelie thought about it and went upstairs to go to rest.
She had been suffering for so long and had been busy after she returned to Oakland.
Even if she didn’t feel tired, her baby needed rest.
After Amelie returned to her room, she changed into a set of soft silk pajamas, went to bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
In those five years, she had been trying to figure out ways to make Lamont care about her, and she didn’t even get a good night’s sleep.
Today was the deepest, soundest sleep she had in five years.
By the time she woke up, the sky had already darkened.
Celia Gunther, Amelie’s mom, and Eden Mullen, Amelie’s dad, had already arrived home. They went to her room several times, yet they couldn’t bear to wake her up.
When Amelie woke up and went downstairs, all of her family members surrounded her, wanting to see her and talk to her as soon as they could.
The whole family sat around Amelie on the sofa, caring about no one but her.
Celia held and looked at Amelie’s face for a long time, feeling that Amelie had become skinnier. Celia’s eyes were red due to her heartache.
Amelie endured the gazes of her family and looked around, only to find that a few people were missing.
“Where are Rex, Mark, and Tyler?”
