Love in Prime Years

Chapter 23 It Hurt

No! She did not want to lose her pinky! Actually, she was afraid of the pain.

The gate of the dungeon was open suddenly. Several bodyguards walked ahead, and then Rufus

walked in leisurely.

Seeing Rufus, Madeleine walked to him and her lovely face was filled with anxiety, “Rufus, please let

Amelia go. She is my friend and she did not mean to do that! Rufus, I’m fine. Would you please forgive

Amelia this time?”

“Sweetheart, I said that those who hurt you must pay the price!”

Rufus turned around and stared at Amelia coldly. His handsome face covered with chill was kind of

frightening.

Rufus’s lips were thicker than Lawrence’s. Amelia once heard Sapphire say the man with such lips was

generous. Amelia once thought Rufus was a gentleman with a generous character, but after their

reunion, she realized that a man, who did not care about you, was ruthless and cruel even though he

had a generous face.

“Amelia, why did you hurt my Sweetheart’s hand?”

“I didn’t!” Coming back to her senses, Amelia explained hurriedly, “Rufus, I have no idea what you are

talking about! I went back home after I left the underground garage tonight. How could I hurt her hand?”

“Madeleine, I didn’t hurt you at all. Why do you frame me like this?”

“Amelia, don’t get me wrong. I did not do that. I did!” Madeleine was Lillian’s good friend and they were

both good at pretending to be the victim.

She grabbed Rufus’s sleeve pitifully, “Rufus, please let Amelia go! I believe she didn’t do it on purpose!

Please don’t please her!”

“She did not do it on purpose? She had you hand broken, how can you say she didn’t do it on purpose?

Sweetheart, you are just too kind to make me grieved!”

“Kind?” Amelia was so angry about Rufus’s words that she was about to laugh, “Rufus, I always

thought you were smart and wise. I didn’t expect that you are so stupid! Madeleine is setting me up.

How could you say that she is kind?”

“Amelia, you are so unrepentant!” Rufus stared at Amelia with sharp eyes, “The people you employed

have confessed. You hold a grudge against Madeleine for what happened in the garage, so you

employed them to hurt my Sweetheart!”

“Amelia, you hurt my Sweetheart and your death cannot atone for the offence!”

“No, Rufus! Please don’t hurt Amelia! No matter what mistakes she has made, she is still my friend.

Please don’t hurt her!” There were tears in Madeleine’s eyes, and it seemed she did actually care

about Amelia.

Rufus held Madeleine’s hand tightly, “Sweetheart, she hurt you. I can’t spare her!”

“Rufus, please don’t kill her!” Madeleine knelt on the ground directly and begged with anxiety, “Please

keep her alive. Since she hurt one of my finger, you just take one of hers, okay? Please just take her

one finger!”

“Sweetheart, get up!”

Madeleine continued to kneel stubbornly on the ground, “Rufus, if you don’t promise me, I will keep on

kneeling on the ground!”

Rufus sighed with tender and resignation, “Well, I promise you.”

Then he ordered coldly to the bodyguard, “Chop one of her fingers!”

“No!” Amelia struggled desperately, but two men pushed her shoulders down and she could not escape

at all.

“Rufus, you can’t do this to me! You will be regretful when you regain your memory if you hurt me like

this!”

There was no change of Rufus’s expression, “Amelia, if I am regretful, I will regret that I didn’t cut you

into pieces today! Do it!”

“No!” Amelia shook her head violently. Catching a glimpse of her cell phone on the floor beside her, she

grabbed it with difficulty and called Lawrence.

Amelia thought it was so ironic that Lawrence had hurt her so deeply, but he was the first person she

thought of when she was in desperation.

The phone was connected immediately, then Amelia said hurriedly, “Lawrence, help me!”

“Amelia, it’s me.” Lillian’s voice was full of schadenfreude, “Are you going to have your finger chopped

off soon? I heard my mother say it’s wonderful to have your fingers chopped off. Just enjoy it!”

“Lillian, give the phone to Lawrence!”

“He has finished taking a bath. I’ll give him the cell phone.”

Taking a bath... Lawrence was with Lillian and he was taking a bath.

Amelia felt her heart aching, like a knife was stabbing into her heart. She knew Lawrence had had sex

with Lillian, but she felt heartbroken when she heard that Lawrence was taking a bath in Lillian’s house.

After a short pause, the voice of Lillian sounded on the other end of the phone, “Lawrence, it seems

that Amelia is in a trouble and she said she wants you to save her, or she will die!”

Lawrence was not next to the cell phone, but Amelia heard his grumpy roar clearly because of his loud

voice.

"She deserved to die!"

“Bum!” The phone in Amelia’s hand fell on the ground. She lost all the strength to resist all of a sudden. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Her mind was bombed by what he had just said that she deserved to die.

Her hand was pressed heavily on the ground, and then her pinky was chopped off. The bright blood

splashed and blurred her vision. Even the pain caused by chopping her finger off was not stronger than

the pain in her heart.

“It hurts...” Amelia pressed hard on her heart with her uninjured right hand, but she was still too painful

to breathe smoothly.

“Lawrence, it hurts...”

Amelia murmured like a poor girl, who had forgotten her way home. When she cried out her pain,

Lawrence would appear in front of her and comfort her gently, even if he was in a distant place.

But now what was Lawrence doing when she told him her pain?

Amelia curled up awkwardly. She turned around stiffly and saw it was still on the phone. She didn’t

want Lillian to hear her helpless cry of pain. Even though Amelia was desperately painful, she would

not show Lillian her desperation.

She was about to held out her trembling hand to hang up the phone when there was a sound from the

other end of the phone.

It was Lillian uttering a libidinal sound. Amelia was heartbroken, while Lawrence was having sex with

others.

Amelia could not control her emotion, and then her tears fell on the phone. She kept telling herself in

her heart do not to be so weak, but she could not hold back her tears.

Rufus stared coldly at the embarrassing woman with blood all over her body on the ground. He thought

he would be very delighted to teach Amelia a lesson to avenge Madeleine, but he felt his heart ached

at the sight of her falling to the ground helplessly, crying and laughing.

Rufus did not dare to stay here, in case that he would do something unreasonable if he continued to

saw Amelia, so he left quickly.

“Miss Gibson, how do we deal with the finger?”
