章節 867: Bending the law for love

Amelia had tried her best to avoid being cornered again and left alone with Evan. After their unexpected encounter earlier, the last thing she needed was to be placed in a similar situation again.

She kept busy with the baby, using her as a distraction until she decided she could not stand being in the same place with him. She just needed some space to breathe without smelling his musky perfume.

"I am sorry, but something urgent came up with the foundation. I have to leave." Amelia excused herself from the group after going to her room and grabbing her bag. 

"But I am about finish with the meal. Aren't you joining us for dinner?" Angela asked, concern written all over her face.

"I am sorry, Angela, but I can't," Amelia quickly responded, not letting her friend sweet talk her to staying. "Don't wait for me. I might come back late." She continued as she strode to Eida's side, kissing Luisa, cradled in her friend's arms.
