Love in Prime Years novel Chapter 19

"Ah ...... Lawrence?" Amelia was taken aback by what Lawrence did.

Their relationship had become much better, why would he suddenly treat her like this?

"Amelia, you lied to me!" Lawrence frowned in displeasure. The expression on his extremely handsome face was violent, which made him look like a blood thirsty devil.

"Lawrence, I don't understand what you mean by that!" Amelia managed to say, "And Lawrence, I have never lied …

"Amelia, you don't even have gastric cancer, do you?!" Lawrence coldly cut Amelia's words off, "Do you find it interesting treating me like a fool and watching me get fooled by you?!"

"Lawrence …"

Amelia froze for a long time and she understood exactly what Lawrence meant by this.

She cherished the current situation, for the relationship between her and Lawrence finally smoothed, so she didn't want any more unnecessary misunderstandings between them.

So, even though it hurt so much being strangled by him like this, she still struggled to defend herself, "Lawrence, I'm not lying to you! I really have gastric cancer! The doctor said that I have terminal gastric cancer. I don't have much time left. Lawrence, let's get along well during the last period of my life, okay?"

"Doctor? Heh!" Lawrence let out a cool laugh as he violently shrugged Amelia off and watched her fall on the ground.

"Amelia, you do impress me. In order to lie to me, you even conspired with the doctors! Unfortunately, to your dismay, I am not that stupid!"

"Lawrence, I didn't conspire with the doctor to lie to you, I'm really not feeling well. Advanced gastric cancer is not a good thing, why would I curse myself?"

Amelia struggled to get up from the floor and clutched Lawrence's hand to plead him with caution, "Lawrence, can you trust me for once?"

"Trust you?" Lawrence sneered, "Amelia, you do not deserve my trust!"

After that, he turned around to walk out of the ward with no reluctance.

Amelia knew if he left this time, she might never see him again. She was dying. It didn't matter that she couldn't see him anymore, but she was afraid that he would not keep his promise to save Leigh anymore.

She grabbed the corner of his shirt almost desperately, "Lawrence, you promised me you would lend me money for Leigh's surgery. The doctor said Leigh could have surgery after two or three more days of recovery. Lawrence, would you lend me a million dollars first?"

"Amelia, you're really doing everything you can to save that bastard! You can even come up with such a clumsy way of pretending to be sick!"

"Lawrence, Leigh is not a bastard!"

Thinking of this, Amelia hurriedly took out the paternity report, "Lawrence, this is the paternity report! Look, the hospital has confirmed that you are Leigh's father!"

"Lawrence, please, please save our son, please!"

Lawrence did not reply at once. He lowered his eyes and fixed his eyes on the paternity report in Amelia's hand for a moment.

Lawrence only felt the red words ironic when seeing the report.

"Biological relationship is confirmed?"

Amelia nodded hard, "Yes, Lawrence, Leigh is indeed your biological son! Four years ago, I didn't abort our child! There is nothing between me and Jimmy, Lawrence, I have only been with you!"

"But Amelia, I don't believe half of the words on this report!"

Lawrence said calmly but coldly, which made people chill from the bottom of their hearts.

"I only know that four years ago, you mistook me for a poor boy. In order to enjoy the luxurious life in the Moss family, you abort our child without hesitation! I only know you ruthlessly smashed my child's body on my face. When the glass bottle shattered, I couldn't tell whether it was my blood or my child's blood falling on my face!"

"All I know is that I was in pain, you were having sex with Jimmy! I only know you pretended to be innocent to please Jimmy. In order to cover up the fact that you were with me, you hired a murderer to create a car accident. I almost became crippled in that accident! All I know is …"

"Lawrence, it's not like that! Four years ago, the reason for me to break up with you was Lilian…."

"Amelia, don't tell me again that you would break up with me because you were forced by Lilian! You really make me sick seeing you frame Lilian!"

"Amelia, I don't believe you, I only believe my own eyes!"

Amelia was just about to say something else when Lawrence suddenly grabbed the paternity report out of her hand.

She thought he had changed his mind and wanted to take a good look at the report, but the next second, he tore it up without any emotion.

"How could a bastard have any relationship with me, Heh?"

In the past, Amelia liked Lawrence's eyes the most. They were just like stars. But now there was only coldness and cruelty in them. "Amelia, leave with you dirty child, I feel sick."

"I have a cleanliness fetish. You are too dirty!"

Lawrence ruthlessly smashed the torn paternity report on Amelia's face and left without looking back.

The fragments fluttered down Amelia's face, just like her broken heart that could never be put together again.

She suddenly lost all the strength to chase him back. She just leaned against the wall and half crouched on the floor. She was trying to heal the wounds in her heart.

The door to the room was suddenly pushed open, Amelia thought Lawrence had returned. But she didn't expect that the one who came in was Leigh.

Leigh was still wrapped in bandages. As he limped in, he seemed to be funny but pitiful.

Amelia hurriedly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes to keep her vulnerability from being exposed to Leigh. Then she smiled, "Leigh, why are you coming over?"

"Mom, I don't want daddy anymore. I will never ask for my daddy again." As he said this, his eyes fell on the paper scraps on the ground.

Amelia could clearly see that all the light in his eyes gradually dimmed. Then, there only remained silence.

He murmured like he was in a dream, "I don't need Daddy. I don't need Daddy."

The little boy suddenly lifted his face to look at Amelia. In his dark eyes, there was a firmness and seriousness that did not belong to his age.

"I don't want daddy. So, Mommy, don't let him bully you anymore. It hurts me to see you sad."

Amelia could no longer control her tears and they fell with a snap.

Even a three only child knew how to care about her. What about Lawrence, why did he always hurt her?

Amelia knew how much Leigh wanted his father's love deep inside his heart. As she was just about to say something to comfort him, she heard Leigh ask in a choked voice, "Mom, is it true that you have advanced gastric cancer?"
