Chapter 407 - Portrayed your departure as a form of betrayal... (1/2)

”You told us that you've met each other at Fusion for the first time, right?” Mr. Jones threw another question at them.

”No Dad.. We've met each other two years ago..” It was Amelia who had disclosed the information to them this time which made all of them to get a big shock with this revelation.

Not even a single person was aware about it... Though Reuben and Veronica had already guessed about their relationship from beforehand but they never knew that these two people in front of them who were connected to them by different relations, were already accustomed to each other from past two years..

It was a really long span of time but no one was aware about it. They didn't even get a simple doubt about this couple.

”What? You guys know each other from two years? How could that be possible?” Myra asked being still in her shock.

Alonzo nodded his head and said, ”Actually.. you're somewhere right and somewhere wrong too. We don't know each other from two years ago but we had a meeting together in Country M two years ago.”

Amelia then looked at the confused faces of her parents and friends who had a look of puzzlement showing on their expressions and inhaled a sharp breath.

After that, she gazed at her parents and asked, ”Do you remember Mom that I needed to attend a business party two years ago on the behalf of Dad as he was out of country that time?”

Both her parents pondered over the matter and when they got back their memory of that time, they nodded at her.

”Yes, I do remember. You had just started working under me that time. And it was an emergency for which I need to go abroad so I let you attend the party.” Mr. Jones said remembering the particular day.

Amelia confirmed her father by saying, ”Yes dad.. You're right. That day, I met Alonzo for the first time. He too had come to join the party and we talked about few business related stuffs with others on the night of the party.”

”So… After that night, you continued to have a connection between each other? But whatever I've known about Alonzo, he was behind our Vero, right?” Jack asked one of the most important questions of the time being.

Alonzo sighed and replied, ”Yes… You were right that I was behind Vero till few days ago. And about keeping connection between each other from that day, you are absolutely wrong…

Because that was the first and last time I had any conversation with Amy. We were just strangers who met at a business party and spoke a little bit for business purpose. Nothing more…”

Amelia looked at Alonzo and then replied, ”Yes.. That's right. It was after the engagement day when we came face to face again after two long years at Fusion...

Alonzo couldn't recognise me at first but it didn't take me much time to acknowledge him as I became a fan of his impressive business talks in that party..”

”Wait a minute! You are talking about the same day when we had a huge revelation about a lot of stuffs…right?” Veronica asked as she calculated the date by their mentions.

Amelia nodded her head again and said, ”Yes.. It was the same day when I came to know about my mistakes.”
