Chapter 273
Amelia didn’t feel less worried after Killian said nothing would happen to him. He knew what could and couldn’t kill him, but she still had to worry about him. Amelia wasn’t in the mood to attend dinner now, but she was currently walking to the dining hall with Killian by her side because she had already said she would be attending.
"All of you should stay out here," Amelia said to Edith and the others who were here to guard them.
The dining hall rarely had guards and was mostly filled with maids. If anything were to happen, they were not far away and Killian was right by her side.
Amelia squeezed Killian’s hand she was holding as they entered the dining hall. Fraser, Margaret, and Beth were already seated. The fact that Cedric nor men from the court were present was a good sign that Amelia could tolerate what would be said at dinner.
Fraser found Amelia to be doing too much by dressing as if she was attending a ball when they were just having dinner. Was she trying to make up for her poor appearance earlier? He almost wanted to laugh at the fact she was trying to compete with him and failing miserably.
He effortlessly looked like a king when he walked and spoke while Amelia looked like a little girl playing pretend. Fraser was enjoying that she wanted to try to show off, but there was something that bothered him.
Fraser disliked seeing Amelia holding Killian’s hand as if announcing that their marriage was working and they were happily in love. He had hoped that a man like Killian would ruin her and have her begging to come back home.
There were a few men who always had an interest in her that would take her to be their wife should she return home. Many would want to see what the woman who was once married to Killian Bune was like.
Fraser became irritated as he thought of his mother’s words which he thought were wrong in the past. Her saying that Killian loved Amelia already and should he try to do anything to Amelia, Killian would kill him. Why couldn’t Killian just be the animal that Fraser thought he was and ravish Amelia instead of falling for her?
