Chapter 293 Not Meant To Be

Amelia, Tiffany, and Kurt were having breakfast the following day when somebody banged on the front door. Baffled, Amelia quickly moved her gaze onto Tiffany, who seemed just as mystified.

“I’ll go see who it is,” informed Kurt after setting his fork down.

Checking the monitor beside the door, Kurt could see a good-looking man standing right outside. He just so happened to have met the man a couple of times when they were both working for Oscar.

Furrowing his brows, Kurt was somewhat reluctant to let the man in. However, at that moment, Tiffany inquired, “Who is it, Kurt?”

“Some lunatic. I’ll take care of it. You guys enjoy breakfast,” replied Kurt without turning around.

“If there’s a lunatic out there, I think it’s best you stay inside, Kurt. Let him bang all he wants. I’m sure he’ll leave once he’s had enough,” suggested Amelia with a weak voice. Because of the hangover, she still had a headache and was as pale as a ghost.

Amelia only regretted drinking too much the night before when the hangover took its toll on her.

“It’s going to be fine. I know how to fight, remember? Lunatics like this guy don’t stand a chance against me. I’ll be back before you know it. Enjoy your breakfast.” With that, Kurt opened the door just as quickly as he closed it behind him so that Amelia and Tiffany could not catch a glimpse of the person outside.

Leaning his back against the door, Kurt narrowed his eyes at the man in front of him.

“Who are you? I’m here for Amelia. She’s inside, isn’t she?” questioned Carter Scott as he glared at Kurt hostilely.

“You’ve got the wrong place, pal. There’s no Amelia here.” Kurt decided to lie to the man.

“Isn’t this Tiffany’s place?” continued Carter with knitted brows.

“Nope. As I said, wrong place, so I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to leave. If you refuse, I’ll call the police,” warned Kurt with a stern face.

The two men then stood their ground and sized each other up.

After a while, Carter unexpectedly dashed past Kurt to open the front door and went inside before the man could respond.

Amelia, still having her breakfast, immediately jumped up when she saw Carter barge in. “Carter? How did you—”

Before Amelia could finish her sentence, Carter rushed forward to wrap his arms tightly around her.
