Chapter 1 No Dogs and Amelia


    A snowy day.


    Amelia was rubbing her own belly. It was so painful as if there were a knife stabbing into it. She almost


    fainted and fell on the ground; but finally, she made her way to the gate of the Shallow Bay Vi.


    "Lawrence, please lend me 500,000 dors! Leigh is your child! He''ll die without the surgery! Please,


    please help us!"


    The pain in her belly had be more and more intense. She couldn''t control the spasms of her body


    anymore. She tried to straighten her back, but the pain made her cramp like a shrimp.


    The advanced gastric cancer was putting her in real suffering.


    Amelia gritted her teen and keep knocking at the closed gate.


    "Lawrence, please! I''ll do whatever you want me to do, as long as you can lend me the money!!


    Please!"


    Cracking! The gate to the vi was pushed open. Amelia''s desperate eyes were lit up with a hint of


    hope.


    "Is Lawrence going to see me?"


    The housekeeper of the vi walked out, and put a sign in front of her with a poker face. Then he


    closed the gate again.


    Amelia almost sat on the ground when she saw the sign. Tears rolled down her cheeks immediately.


    "No dogs and no Amelia."


    Puff...Ameliaughed out with tears sheathed her face. The sign was more of a praise to her. Lawrence


    would''ve treated her better if she were a dog.


    Lawrence believed Amelia was a vicious woman. He was just a humble young man four years ago, and


    Amelia had their kids aborted because she wanted to marry the rich guy from the Moss family. She


    killed their kids and broke up with him without hesitation. She had even hired someone to break his


    legs.


    But that was not true. He wouldn''t believe the truth no matter how hard she tried to exin.


    The wind was howling, and the snow grew heavier. Snowkes had been blown into her clothes, which


    felt freezing cold. She couldn''t even tell which was colder, the snowkes or Lawrence''s heart.


    A few dead leaves stuck to her right arm. She raised her hand and tried to get rid of them until she


    realized her left arms could no longer move.


    She had been imprisoned by Lillian and Jimmy for four years, during which her left arm was disabled.


    Lawrence never knew what she had to put up with during the past four years. Sometimes just recalling


    it would make her shiver. The four years was like a hell surging in the blood, without the slimmest ray of


    light.


    It took her three days to finally see Lawrence. She and he were more like a harlot and her John,


    instead of a woman and her husband.


    Even the small apartment he arranged for her was located in Willow Alley, a ce used to house


    prostitutes...


    That was a very vicious but urate metaphor.


    Usually, it would be impossible for her to find Lawrence when he was needed, but when he wanted to


    torture her and had sex with her, he woulde to Willow Alley by himself and destroy her dignity


    again and again.


    Now, he forced her to kneel on the ground. He was so violent and fierce, like a demon.


    "Lillian..." When he finally came with satisfaction, he rudely mmed her to the ground. Then he tidied


    his own suits. It looked so neat and elegant. In his ck eyes, there was only coldness and disdain left.

    He condescendingly looked down at Amelia who was lying down on the ground with embarrassment.


    Then he said, "You''re not Lillian! Get out of here!"


    Amelia had a spasm on her stomach. She pressed on her belly hard, lips twitching in pain.


    That was the pain brought by advanced cancer, and her heart felt equally painful.


    "Lillian Palmer..." He regarded her as Lillian again.


    He once said if he had to do it, he could only take her as Lillian. Otherwise, it would disgust him.


    But that was not who he used to be.


    When they first met, she was his cherished little girl. The night he popped her cherry, he was so afraid


    that she might felt painful... however, now he wanted nothing but to let her suffer.


    She woke up from her memory, and then she crawled over and tried to grab his hand.


    "Lawrence, can we settle from today on and get along well in the future? You must''ve had lots of


    misunderstandings about me, but I can exin! What happened four years ago was not like what you


    saw... the truth is..."
