Chapter 499 I Rejected Him

During the evening, there were hardly any people in the garden. Such a situation couldn’t simply be explained away as a mere coincidence.

Amelia blinked, twirling a strand of hair, she said, “You’re Lysander, right? Don’t get me wrong. I’m not referring to the one who’s still hung up on Mr. Guerra.”

It seemed she knew quite a bit about Josiah.

Lysander admitted. “Did you need something from me?”

“It wasn’t anything significant. I just didn’t expect to run into you here, so I couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.” Amelia spoke with a laugh in her voice, her tone surprisingly not off–putting

“What are you looking at me for?”

Amelia tilted her head and let out a chuckle, abruptly changing the subject. “Ms. Thorne, your outfit is quite stunning,” she praised. “Would you mind telling me where you got it? I’d love to try something

similar.

“So, you’ve followed me all this time just to ask about my clothes?” Lysander naturally didn’t believe it and stated bluntly, “What I’m wearing might not exactly match your style.”

Amelia’s attire was incredibly bold, her makeup even more so, favoring the fiery red lip look of a dominant woman. To her, Lysander’s dress was so plain it bordered on boring. Yet, Amelia sincerely said, “No, I really like it.

“Is that so?” Lysander asked.

With a sly smile, Amelia said, “Because this outfit was personally selected for you by Mr. Guerra.”

Recently, Lysander had been dealing with one complex situation after another. She really didn’t have the extra energy to decipher the hidden meanings in Amelia’s words. She went straight to the greenhouse, found a rocking chair, sat down, and asked, “You have something to say, just spit it out. We met at the karaoke lounge last time. Your name is Amelia Scott, right?”

The name was something Tiffany had told her, and Lysander could only hope she hadn’t misremembered

    speaking further, Amelia took the initiative and began, “If we’re being exact, our first meeting was actually at the karaoke lounge. However, the circumstances then weren’t quite ideal. Perhaps, it’s best if we forget about that. Let’s just pretend that today is the first time
