Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 803

Amelia left the apartment and rang Eva, but it went unanswered.

She grew terribly anxious as she had been searching high and low but still couldn't find Eva.

Jolin remarked, "Mrs. Clinton, calm down, okay? I'll report it to Boss. Boss will send some men over, and we'll be able to find her soon."

Amelia shook her head. Just as she wanted to say something, her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Eva.

Amelia answered the call. Eva, on the other end of the line, uttered, "Amelia, what's wrong? I received a call from the base saying that a new recruiter has to carry out a mission, and they need me to get back to train them urgently. Hence, I packed up and got back."

Amelia wasn't convinced. "Really? Have you reached there yet? Or are you still waiting for your flight at the airport? James sent me a few photos of you wearing nothing but undergarments, and there are bruises and cuts on your body. What the heck is going on?"

Eva went silent for a while and answered, "Those are just injuries I've suffered during the training. I just wanted to make James feel bad for me, so I let him take my photos. However, I think it didn't affect him that much, and I felt it was rather pointless. Therefore, when the base asked me to go back, I didn't give it much thought and took the flight. I left in a hurry and hadn't had time to bid you goodbye. I hope you don't mind."

Amelia finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She was really worried that something bad had happened to Eva.

After all, young ladies were prone to making rash decisions.

Just when Amelia wanted to say something, she heard an automated female voice announcement from the other end of the line. "Are you still at the airport? Wait there. I'll be right over."

Eva immediately stopped her and said, "Amelia, you don't have to come here. I'll board the plane in five minutes. I'll come to visit you again when I'm on vacation. Now, I feel too embarrassed to see you." With that, she hung up the phone.

Seeing that the call was ended, Amelia couldn't help heaving a sigh.

Eva, who was sitting at the airport, looked at the flight ticket in her hand and brushed her hand against her injured cheek. She inhaled sharply in pain when her hand came into contact with her injured cheek.

Actually, she was indeed injured after being ruthlessly wrestled multiple times to the ground by Oscar the day before. Right after she left the park, she spewed a mouthful of blood and went to see a doctor. The doctor told her that she was bleeding internally, and she was asked to stay in the hospital for a day or two for further observation. However, she merely asked the doctor to give her some medication before she left. Initially, she thought of earning James' sympathy by appearing pitiful. Unexpectedly, James just took some photos of her placidly and left after telling her he would ask Amelia to come and see her.

It was obvious that James was heartless toward her.

Eva felt disappointed after being heartlessly rejected. Hence, she chose not to tell anyone before flying to another base. Not only did she not know how to face Amelia, but she also didn't feel like seeing James for the time being.

Because of love, she began to hold a grudge against

James. She felt as though all her efforts and sacrifices were worthless to James. That was the reason why she was furious and sad.

When the time came, Eva boarded the plane. She temporarily replaced her phone card with another, trying to cut off all communications with the people in Tayhaven.

Amelia, who stood rooted to the spot, pondered for a while before calling Eva again. However, an automated voice came from the other end of the line. "We're sorry, but the number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

Amelia furrowed her brows.

"Mrs. Clinton, she is not a child, and she knows what she's doing. You're not her parent, so you don't have to be responsible for her actions," Jolin uttered calmly.

Amelia took a glance at Jolin and put away her phone. "Let's get back to the office. I have to complete some drawings."

Jolin nodded and followed Amelia quietly.
