Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) -
Chapter 328
Chapter 328 The Rich Kids
"Yeah, I've been in Manovia for over six months. Why are you still haunting me?
I mirrored Amelia's tone, sending her words back at her.
Her face twisted in anger, but I didn't feel satisfied.
We had shared a dorm for four years in university-not quite sisters but close enough.
Thadn't expected our relationship to devolve into such hostility as if we both wanted the other to disappear. A pang of sedness hit me, and I took a step back, intending to bypass them to meet Jill.
Amelia's mocking laughter echoed behind me.
"Eva, you divorcee, why bother putting on a show?"
I turned back just in time to see her caressing her belly.
"Eva, I'm having a son. He'll be the future heir of the Harmon family. I know you're envious, jealous, and hateful, but some people are just born without that destiny. Your parents are dead because of you, and your child-" "Enough!" Leonard stepped in front of me, the temperature around him dropping, "If you say another word, you'll go back home!"
"Leo!" Amelia's eyes brimmed with tears, looking pitiful she then shot me a fierce glare. Then, unexpectedly, she laughed. "Alright, I won't say anything more. A happy family of three is more important than anything else. Let's go." She reached for Leonard, but he remained motionless, pulling his arm away from her with a hint of disgust
Amelia, however, didn't seem offended. Instead, she glared at me maliciously.
"Haunting us like a ghost, this homewrecker."
I was speechless. How could she have the audacity to say that?
I could no longer hold back, especially since she had mentioned my child. I had intended to let things go since she was pregnant, but now, I wasn't willing to
"Amelia, I hope you haven't forgotten how your child came to be Oh, but it must be hard for you your belly is so big, yet you're still unmarried." That was something I heard from Emma.
Rumor had it that Amelia had been working at Harmon Group for several months. Yet no matter what she did, Leonard refused to marry her. He always said they needed to wait as public opinion against the Harmon family was unfavorable. But now that Amelia was nearing her due date, what was there to wait for?
Seeing the fury on her face felt pointless.
Just as I was about to turn away, Leonard grabbed my hand.
"Eva, are you okay?"
His voice was becoming hoarse, and I could barely make out what he was saying.
"Excuse me, sir, do you need something from her?"
Jack emerged from a convenience store, pulling my hand free from Leonard's grip and handing me a sandwich and a bottle of warm milk. "Have something to eat."
I nodded dazedly, realizing he had gone to buy food for me
He didn't spare me a glance and instead turned his attention to Leonard. "Sir, if you have nothing else, please step aside, will you? We're here to pick Someone up.
Jack's expression was more stole than Julian's, and his strong presence diminished Leonard's. He draped his arm around my shoulders, ignoring Leonard completely as he walked forward.
I finally felt a wave of relief. Seeing that couple together was just bad luck for me.
"Is he the rich kid you dated in your final year of university?"
Amelia interjected with a provocative tone, "It makes sense why you came to Manovia. It's because of him, right?"
She strutted over and linked her arm with Leonard's
"Eva, you're really something! You dumped Leonard for him in your final year, and now, you're divorcing Leonard for him. Did you leave Leonard because you weren't confident that he would become the heir of the Harmons?"
