Chapter 1481 Draw a clear line Ameliaâs misfortune also changed Evaâs life. She went from being a quiet and reserved person to becoming the owner of a nightclub. She picked up smoking and drinking during that time. After going through a divorce and losing loved ones, Amelia didnât know how she managed to get through it allâ¦.
Perhaps during those three years, she indeed had feelings for Paul. But Paul was known for being a playboy, so Eva never dared to give her heart to him. Plus, he never expressed any interest in her and always acted like he didnât care about her. So, Eva couldnât rely on or trust him.
She thought that she would end up with Jayden. For Eva, she didnât need to marry someone she loved or be madly in love with someone before marrying them. She felt she wasnât deserving of love. All she wanted was to marry a reliable and faithful man who could provide her with a stable home.
Many couples lived their lives respectfully and peacefully, like a calm river flowing. That was all she wanted â a sense of peace. But she didnât realize Jayden didnât feel the same way. His so-called secret admiration for her was just his unwillingness to accept that he couldnât have her when they were young.
Eva was only in her thirties, but she had already experienced countless hardships. If talking about suffering, Amelia had also suffered a lot, but she was slightly luckier than Eva. At least she found her sister and saw videos of her mother, so she knew what they look like Eva didnât even know who her parents were.
Thinking about Evaâs experiences over the years, Amelia hugged her tightly in sympathy.
âEva, itâs my fault. I didnât protect you well.â
It was her fault for not stopping them when she realized Jayden wasnât a good person, which led to Evaâs ordeal.
With her bandaged hand, Eva, who had already cried, gently stroked Ameliaâs waist-length curly hair, soothing her softly.
âIâm fine, donât worry, and donât blame yourself.â
This had nothing to do with Amelia. It was her own fault for not being able to judge people clearly when it came to relationships, and she only realized it was a mistake after taking the risk.
Honestly, a person like her shouldnât have gotten involved in marriage. She should have lived a solitary life and grown old peacefully, living a quiet life.
Thinking this, Eva looked at Paul, who was still sitting by the bedside, and a bitter feeling overwhelmed her, making her eyes turn red once again.
âPaul, thank you for saving me.â
The calmness in her tone seemed to be a way of expressing gratitude and separating herself from him.
