Chapter 229 The Other Side Of Jonny (1/2)

”Miss Shelly is not at home, but Mr. Jonny and Mrs. Emma are here,” the butler answered respectfully.

Amelia frowned. She knew that both Jonny and Emma were in the house except Shelly.

She was a little disappointed, and for a moment she refused to come inside. However, turning back was not an option, if only for courtesy. It would be rude not to enter, all thing considered.

Jonny sat at the living room with his eyes trained on a thick business book. As he vaguely felt the presence of someone entering, he looked up and was surprised at the sight that greeted his eyes. ”Amelia, why are you here?” he asked in surprise.

Under the light of the crystal lamp, Amelia's fair skin seemed to glow. Her bare face was as radiant as moonlight.

Jonny put his book down on the table. It was as if something had enchanted him. He moved, half-conscious, and crossed the room to where she stood.

”I... I happened to be nearby, so I came over for a visit,” Amelia answered.

Jonny nodded unsuspectingly at her response. ”I see. Take a seat,” he said.

Amelia felt uneasy under the weight of Jonny's gaze. She craned her neck to look further inside and asked politely, ”Is sworn mother home?”

”Yes. I'll get her.” Jonny gave her a smile then walked inside.

The lingering agitation in Amelia's chest grew with each passing minute. However, it would be terribly impolite to walk in and leave just like that.
