Chapter 132: Oddly Familiar
The burly bodyguards paid him no mind and continued to yank the man out by his arms, but Amelia frowned.
Related? For all she knew, she only had her father left as her only kin after her mother’s passing. Only recently she had reunited with her mother’s side of the family, and even so, she was sure this man wasn’t one of them. Otherwise, Matteo would’ve surely recognized him as well.
"Get your hands off of me!" the man continued to scream. He kicked and punched, trying his best to worm free. Then, his eyes fell on Amelia and Matteo, who were trying to walk past him as quickly as they could.
His eyes went wide, and in a sudden burst of strength, he managed to tear free from the grips of the bodyguards. In the short second before those guards could respond, the man darted forward and all but hugged Amelia’s legs, unwilling to let go.
"Hey!" Amelia screamed in shock as the man gripped even tighter. "Let go!"
Matteo sneered, and with one ruthless kick, he pried the man off of Amelia and sent him tumbling a few steps away. The man groaned as he rolled, stopping only when his back hit the wall with a grunt.
"Are you alright?" Matteo asked, holding Amelia protectively as she shakily looked at the man.
"I’m fine..." Amelia trailed off, but the moment she got a clearer look at the man, her eyes widened.
With a mop of dirty blond hair, the man ran a hand through his messy hair to hold the strands out of place as he cussed. When his hair was out of his face, Amelia was even more sure― he looked strangely similar to her father!
