The Return of the Disguised Princess

Chapter 19

“You…” Lamont snorted coldly. “Ms. Mullen has recovered her identity and is becoming more and more eloquent. Back then, you fooled my grandpa with that, right?”

“Grandpa? You still have the nerve to mention your grandpa!”

Amelie wanted to laugh out loud. “Lamont, it is your grandpa’s greatest sorrow to have a grandson like you who refuses to investigate the cause of his death!”

As they were arguing, Emilee instantly understood what had happened.

“Humph.” Emilee sized up Lamont and said to Amelie in disdain, “Hey, Amelie, is he the person you wanted to marry at that time? He doesn’t look that outstanding. After all, there are so many people like him in Oakland.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Emilee’s words were harsh, and she looked down upon Lamont very much.

“Watch your language.”

When Leila and Elizabeth came out of the bathroom, they found that Amelie had also appeared in this pool hall. Hearing Emilee mock Lamont, they suddenly felt that it was a good chance to show off.

A few days ago, when Elizabeth called Leila and told her that Amelie became the daughter of the Mullen family, Leila could not believe it. If so, in terms of family background, Amelie was more suitable for Lamont than Leila, the adopted daughter of the Aylward family.

Leila thought, given Amelie is so obsessed with Lamont, I don’t believe that this bitch would give up so easily. Moreover, Elizabeth said that Lamont did not deny that he would marry me.

At that time, Leila had regarded herself as Lamont’s fiancée, and she looked at Amelie vigilantly as if Amelie was a home wrecker.

Leila raised her sharp voice and mocked, “Oh, Amelie, there you are. Weren’t you from the Byron family? I heard that you’ve now become the Mullen family’s seventh daughter?

“Well, don’t think that you can go everywhere since your identity has changed. This is a top pool hall. Why are you here since you know nothing? Are you here to make a fool of yourself?”

Leila looked at the pool cue in Amelie’s hand and burst out laughing. Leila clearly remembered that when they went to the pool hall together, Amelie acted like a bumpkin.

In Leila’s eyes, Amelie didn’t know how to play pool at all, and she didn’t know what to do with the cue either.

Amelie clearly saw Emilee’s strange expression. She probably didn’t expect that Amelie could act so well. Emilee couldn’t help but reach out to pat Amelie on the shoulder and give her a thumbs–up.

‘Amelie, you are a tough guy.

Amelie was actually a good player but pretended to know nothing. Emilee certainly thought Amelie was a tough guy.

Azelie listened to Leila’s provocative words and said disapprovingly, “How do you know that I can’t play it? I was just fooling you back then. If you took it seriously, don’t blame me.”

“Humph, Amelie, don’t keep up appearances.” Elizabeth said disdainfully, “If you play well, do you dare to compete with Leila? Leila is the runner–up in the city women’s pool game.”

Hearing Elizabeth’s flattering words, Leila immediately raised her head and glanced at Amelie arrogantly.

Leila thought, Amelie, I know your ability. Today, whether you agree with the competition or not, I’ll make you embarrassed.

So what if you’re the daughter of the Mullen family? You’re still a good–for–nothing who has been bullied by me for five years.

“Okay!” Amelie leaned against the table. “What’s the rule?”

“What do you mean by that?”

Leila did not understand what Amelie was up to, but she didn’t expect that Amelie would dare to agree to the competition.

Leila thought it was great. Today, she was going to trample on Amelie and have everyone know that Amelie was still a bumpkin even if she became a Mullen.

Amelie looked at the smug Leila and remembered that she was the one who had killed Draven.

Amelie was instantly furious. But she held back her anger and said, “Since it’s a game, there must be a prize.”

“Amelie, a man’s got to know his limitations.” Lamont suddenly stirred up trouble and stopped her.

“If you don’t make a bet, I can still speak for you in front of Leila, so you won’t lose so badly.”

Lamont winked at Elizabeth, indicating her to stop Leila. Now, they were on the Mullen family’s turf. It was not good for them to embarrass the daughter of the Mullen family.

Amelie raised her head and glanced at Lamont. She was polite and indifferent to him. Amelie didn’t admire him anymore, making Lamont feel bad.

“Thank you, Mr. Byron. But … how do you know that I will lose?“
