Chapter 800

Amelia pulled Eva behind her and said to James coldly, "James, Eva is rather upset now, so I'm taking her home. Go back to the hospital. We'll talk another day."

Rubbing his swollen cheek, James nodded. "I'll be going back, then, Amelia. Do talk to her."

After saying that, he swiftly left. Eva initially wanted to chase after him, but Amelia held her back.

Stop messing around, Eva. Right now, go back to my house and stay there. I'll have a chat with you when I return after work. I think you've already reached the point where you've got no bottom line in loving someone," Amelia reprimanded with a stony expression.

Eva bit her lip hard. Yet, her eyes remained trained in the direction where James left, making it clear as day that her thoughts were still on the man.

At the sight of her in such a condition, sheer disappointment swamped Amelia.

Go home. Otherwise, our relationship ends here," Amelia ordered austerely.

Eva wavered for a while, but still, she left in the end.

When Amelia returned home in the afternoon after work, Eva had several pamphlets on cosmetic surgery centers spread in front of her and several books on increasing one's height through surgery scattered by her leg. The instant she saw all that, her expression darkened frightfully.

"Eva." She walked over, keeping a tight rein on her fury.

As soon as Eva saw Amelia and Oscar entering the house, she put away the books on the table. Feigning calmness, she greeted with a smile, "Amelia, Oscar, you're both home."

Amelia pointed at the books in her hands and demanded, "What's with all these, Eva? You should give me an explanation, no?"

Eva shook her head and fibbed, "It's nothing, Amelia. I was merely looking through them casually. Since both you and Oscar are home, I'll go back to my room. I'll have to return to base for training in a few days."

Stop right there.'

"Amelia," Eva purred, hoping to diminish Amelia's dissatisfaction.

We shall talk after dinner," Amelia stated without any room for negotiation.

Left with no other choice, Eva could only relent.

After dinner, Amelia called Eva to the study.

She crossed her arms before her chest, looking all serious.

"Eva, no matter what, I'll never agree to you undergoing cosmetic surgery. It's true that a woman beautifies herself for her beau, but that's on the premise of not damaging her own countenance. If you really go for cosmetic surgery and limb-lengthening surgery because of a single remark from James, I'll break your leg straight away. Also, I'll feel ashamed on your behalf that you're stooping so low in loving someone," she asserted gravely.

Eva remained silent, but her eyes slowly turned red- rimmed.

I really love him a lot, Amelia. I've never liked someone so much. From the moment I laid eyes on him, I felt that he was my Prince Charming. He's so outstanding that he practically shines. Truly, I can't live without him. Amelia, cosmetic surgery and limb-lengthening surgery are the only methods available to me. As long as I become his type, I believe he'll fall in love with me," she countered aggrievedly.
