Chapter 98 – Untitled
Well. Was this supposed to happen?
This wasn’t how she wanted it to be. This wasn’t supposed to be how it would be. Though she smiled that day to ease Mathew’s panic, that didn’t make her happy.
Amelia blamed herself for succumbing to the heat of that moment. It was like she took advantage of Mathew. Mathew wasn’t in his right senses, yet she was, but when his lips eloped hers, she folded under him. Embraced him, hugged him, kissed him, and rolled in bed with him.
Amelia dropped her head, her head resting on her folded arms on the front desk. Any chime from her phone made her jolt in alert, quickly checking it, and her hope deflated when she saw it wasn’t from who she was expecting.
She didn’t think he would be like this.
She had tried to bury herself in work, but that shit wasn’t working when there were many things running in her head and mind. She had made numerous mistakes today and yesterday that some of the staff members told her maybe she should take a break, but she couldn’t.
Because she didn’t know when he’d pass by, that was why she took the front desk work.
There was this ache, this lingering ache in her heart that she knew it was only him that could mend it.
Mathew had been avoiding her. She knew Mathew was in the hotel but couldn’t find him. Mathew never avoided her, he never does. He always sought her out most of the time—maybe to ask for recommendations, chat about anime, but now, it was like a shadow she couldn’t catch.
The distance was even worse than when they had never known each other.
Amelia chomped on her burger angrily as her brows furrowed. There was nothing shameful with the night they had together, or did Mathew not like it?
