A Naive Bride for the Sophisticated CEO

Chapter 80: Let’s deal with him together

Amelia, Fred and Alice got to the shopping mall shortly after a taxi dropped them off. “Here we are. Where do we start from?” Fred inquired.

“We or 1? Fred, you don’t have to go around looking for this woman for me. You don’t even know what she looks like. Just stick around with Alice When I'm done, I'll come to you. Please keep Alice safe. I trust you and that is why I'm letting you be with her.”

Fred smiled widely and nodded. “You know how much I love you and Alice. I would never let anyone hurt you. We'd go around the mall, maybe to the Game Center. But please don't stay too long. If you see or notice anything weird, call on me. I'll come running.

Amelia divulged a soft smile and nodded too. She leaned closer to him and planted a soft kiss on his cheeks “Thank you.” Amelia clutched her jaws slightly and turned to look. She looked around the mall and reminisced on where to start looking first.

The restroom.’ She thought and headed to the restroom. She often looked back at Alice as she walked, and Fred kept waving and smiling each time she did it.

“He seems so excited. I think this is the right time to finally get the hell out of his life. But I need to wait a little longer, I need to find answers to the questions bothering me before I can leave this place. Once I go back home, I may not get the chance to talk to that woman anymore.”

She got to the restroom and walked in. She met some hot ladies in front of the mirror, applying makeup on their faces.

They turned to look at her and looked away again. paying little attention to her.

After looking around and not seeing this strange woman. She thought she could be in one of the toilets so she decided to wait a little.

She knew what she was doing as so stupid and the chances of seeing this woman was so slim, but she still found herself doing it anyways. She headed into one of the toilets and shut the door behind her. She rested her back on the tiled wall and exhaled loudly.

I need to see you. I need to know if this is truly all in my head.”

After waiting for a few seconds, she stepped out of the toilet. This time, those ladies were out of the restroom. She heaved a sigh and walked to the mirror.

She stared at herself for minutes and noticed she wasn't looking as good as she used to. She had been under tough situations lately, and this was part of them.

She opened the tap and took some water in her palms. She splashed it on her face and wiped it off with her palm. She looked into the mirror again, and this was when she heard a slight noise from the door.

She hurriedly looked at the door and realized that someone had just left the door. She grabbed her bag and ran out of the restroom. She sighted a woman in front of her, walking very fast too. “Hey! Stop! Please wait!” She yelled as she ran towards her.

This woman refused to stop walking so fast, but before she could switch to running. Amelia got closer to her, pulled her by the hand and stood in front of her, panting hard.

“Why are you running away from me?!" She asked her. It was the woman she was there for.

“Why are you here? Why are you after me?” The woman asked fearfully, and yanked her hand off Amelia's grip. “You don’t work here, do you?” She asked, still trying to catch her breath.

“No, I don't.

“Then that question goes to the both of us. Why are you here? You were here yesterday, why are you here today?”

“Because

“Stop pretending. We are both here because since yesterday, we have been so confused about our meetings and we want answers to our disturbing questions. Now we have seen each other, can’t we just talk it out? And if we are wrong, we both part ways.”

“But there’s nothing to talk about. I don't know you, and you don't know me.” “We can't be so sure until we get to know each other, okay? I came back here and I found you. I wouldn't be letting you go again. Come with me.”

Amelia took her hand and began to pull away. Susan stared at her hand as she pulled her away. She has this unexplainable feeling, like that hand had touched her before.

“Where are you taking me?”

“To somewhere we can talk. I am not letting you go until I get answers. I'm tired and almost going crazy because of this.”

They got to a restaurant in the mall and sat. They sat in front of each other.

“Did you come alone today?” Susan asked, and Alice shook her head.

“No, I came with my daughter and someone not so important.” Alice responded and raised her hand to call the waiter.

“What would you like to have?” She further asked.

“Someone not so important? You mean the man that you hugged so tight yesterday?” Susan inquired, ignoring her initial question “So you saw me hug him.”

“Yes. I don’t know, but I just don't like him. I stood far away from you two and I could sense the evil aura around him

Alice stared at her face and narrowed her eyes at her. She tried comparing her face to the portrait she had at home, and she realized it was the same. person

“Actually, he is an evil person. He isn’t a lover or a friend. My daughter and I were abducted by him. It's a long story, and I’m not ready to talk about it with you. Who are you?”

“I told you. I’m not who you think I am!” “But you look exactly like her! Like who? I’m so confused right now. What are you talking about, child?”

Alice exhaled hard and lowered her head. “If my phone wasn't destroyed by that motherf**ker, I would have shown you whe I’m talking about! Are you a twin?”

“No. I’m net. I don’t know.” Susan said out of frustration “You don't know? Fine. Any families or friends? Who is your husband? “The last time I checked, I didn't have a husband.

“You don't? What do you remember?” Amelia asked in frustration.

“Listen, child. Kdon’t know what this is but the only thing I remember is that I have been living with anold ~ woman. ‘She said I was saved by Ker, and siAce then, I've been living my life vith only her. Ihad a memjory loss-and I can’t remember anything fram my past.” Content bétongs to

“Memory loss? Can I ask you something quite personal?” “No, you... “Do you have a scar?” “I told you not to ask me a personal question. Why are you asking me that?” ‘Tell me. Do you have any scars? Maybe a gunshot scar. Susan furrowed her brows and slowly moved her chair backwards. “How did you “You have one, don’t you?” Amelia added in awe ‘e... yes. I have. one on my belly.” Susan stammered and Amelia sprang to her feet. “I knew it! How did you get that shot?” “I just told you I lost my memory. How am I supposed to know? Amelia took a pause and stared at Susan for a few minutes. Tears filled her eyes and they began to stream down without control.

“You're my mom.” She mumbled, and Susan closed her eyes and heaved a sigh.

Amelia rushed to where she sat, fell on her knees and embraced her tightly.

“I thought you died that night! I have been so sad all these years. I wished all of that never happened.” She mumbled in tears.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Susan was so numb and all she did was stareat Amelia as she held tiér, She wanted to push this strange beautiful woman off her but for some reasons, she couldn'tt felt normal. ta ”

‘I’m so happy.” Amelia mumbled and shut her eyes right as she kept crying profusely. “I don’t remember a thing, child.

“I'm Amelia. You took care of me until that evil day came. You don’t have to remember me, but you need to believe what I'm saying. You are my mother. My surrogate mom!"

“Amelia?!” Fred called from the front of the restaurant. He had a confused look on his face after seeing the position she was with this strange woman. Amelia opened her eyes slowly and saw Fred staring at her. He held Alice’s Walker in his hands.

Amelia let go of Susan and rushed to where Fred was standing. “Let me take Alice with me. I want to show her to my mom.”

She held unto the Walker and wanted to take it from him, but he tightened his grip on it, making her look at him.

“Amelia, what are you doing?” He whispered. He didn’t let her answer before he grabbed her hand and pulled her to the side.

Susan's eyes were fixed on them as they spoke and moved.

“What do you mean? I have found my mom and I want to show Alice to her.

“Are you crazy? What if this woman is evil? What if she isn’t the person you think she is anymore. What if she is trying to do something crazy to you?”

“I know what I'm doing, okay?! Iam not baby;neither am I stupid. I dort care if she wants to do something crazy4 to me. I know it can’t beas worse as what you have done to me! Now, let go of the Walker.”

Fred gulped hard and let go of the Walker, Amelia didn't bother looking at him before she pushed the Walker away from him. She got to Susan and moved Alice closer to her. “Here is my daughter. She is almost a month old.”

Susan looked at Alice, and a slight smile crossed her face. “She is beautiful.” She uttered and Amelia grinned.

“Thank you!”

“Amelia, we have to go back home now. We have spent too much time here.” Fred uttered, and that was when they knew he was close to them already.

Amelia heaved a sigh and looked at Susan's face. While she stared at Fred, the smile on her face disappeared. She really doesn’t like him.' Amelia thought.

“Follow me home, susan. There are so many things I'd love to talk about.

I.

“Errrm ” She stammered and looked at Fred. Amelia leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear.

“I don’t like him either. We are on the same page. Let's deal with him together.”

She stepped back and watched a smile creep up Susan's face.
