My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy) novel Chapter 77

Richard didn't come back all night. Amy didn't know if he had made up with Allison. Anyway, Amy didn't sleep well either. There were lots of things going on. And sometimes, she thought of Richard.

When Amy woke up the next morning, she got dark circles under her eyes, which made her eyes look even bigger.

Amy wanted to cover the dark circles, but she couldn't find any makeup. She never wore makeup. She only had a lipstick.

Forget it. Even if she managed to cover them, it couldn't cover up how she was feeling. She was so tired.

"Mrs. Carter, Mr. Carter said that you don't need to go to work today. You should rest at home." Robin said to Amy when she went downstairs.

‘What? He just doesn't want me to upset Allison.’ Amy thought to herself. Never mind, she didn't care about it. Even if she couldn't work at the HD Group, she could find another job. It was time to resign. It seemed that she couldn’t stay in the company any longer.

"Alright," Amy replied. She sat down and took her time with breakfast. She majored in German, so she might be able to find a few part-time jobs and do some translation. She couldn't work outside. Otherwise, Robin would ask her about it. After she made some money, she could move out.

Robin felt bad for Amy as she remained silent. But he couldn't say anything because Richard told him not to talk much.

Robin couldn't understand young people nowadays. He could tell that Richard cared about Amy. It was just that he didn't know how to show his care. Anyway, Richard would suffer in the end.

After breakfast, Amy went upstairs silently. She turned on her computer and started looking for a job. She wouldn't resign to her fate. She would find ways to survive no matter what.

On the other side, Richard did not sleep well either. He stopped following Allison after she got home.

Then, he called Hadrian, Allison’s brother, and told him everything, hoping that Hadrian could persuade Allison.

Richard never wanted to expose Amy to the public, but Allison had gone too far at that time. Moreover, he didn't know that Cathy had given the jade bracelet to Amy. But it showed that they had taken Amy into the family.

What should he do now? If Amy came back to work again, what should his employees call her? Mrs. Carter? So, his wife worked in the secretariat, but another woman stayed in his office?

It was such a headache. Yesterday, Allison was so sad that she ran away. Richard couldn't just tell Allison to move out of his office when she came to work today.

Richard had never been such a coward since he entered the business world many years ago.

"Richard, what was going on yesterday? Amy is your wife. So, that investigation you required was to check her background before marriage?" Kevin heard about it and came to Richard's office early in the morning.

Kevin looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Yeah," Richard said indifferently.

"You married Amy, so you should tell Allison about it. Now what are you going to do? Who will you choose? Are you going to divorce Amy since Allison is back?" Kevin asked.

Everyone in R City knew that Richard loved Allison. Now that they pointed to a hard truth and only Amy would get hurt.

"No." Richard looked at Kevin with dissatisfaction.

"Then you're going to have both? I don't know if Allison will agree to it, but Amy will never compromise! You know Amy well." After seeing Amy for a few times, Kevin knew she was a tough girl with principles.

"Who told you that?" Richard was getting angry because of Kevin. He had never thought of having both. He only wanted Amy.

"Then what are you gonna do?" Kevin was relieved that Richard was not a jerk. If Richard gave up on Amy, Hannah would probably never speak to Kevin again.

"If I knew what to do, I wouldn't be sitting here. I'm thinking. I wanted to tell Allison that I was married long ago, but I just couldn't say it." Richard was helpless.

Richard looked like a tough man. But Kevin knew that he was soft-hearted when it came to Allison.

"Then you can say it to Amy?" Kevin reminded Richard.

Richard only sighed. He didn't know what to do. He didn't even go back last night. Amy must have misunderstood him again.

"Richard." Allison's sweet voice came outside the door. Nobody had expected that she would come to work today.

Kevin smiled awkwardly. "Well, you guys must want to have a talk. I got something to do." He glanced at Allison and knew that she didn't sleep well last night either. She got dark circles under her eyes.

After Kevin left, Allison closed the door.

"Richard, did you get married by accident? Did Amy seduce you and force you to marry her?" Allison walked to Richard and sat down.

"No." Richard smelled Allison's perfume. He missed the natural fragrance on Amy.

"Then your family forced you, didn't they?" Allison asked again, leaning on Richard's shoulder.

Richard fell silent. His family did push him to get married, but he chose Amy himself.

"Allison, it's not what you think. I chose to marry Amy." Richard concluded that he married Amy of his free will. Amy was the one who was forced to marry him.

"Richard, is this your revenge on me for leaving you? But you didn't have to marry such a woman. Her family is bankrupt, and she was married before. I could accept it if you chose anyone else." Allison cried.

Amy was married? Richard had never thought about it. It didn't matter to him. Amy was a virgin when she married Richard. Matt was just a scum.

"Allison, you're a good girl. Now that you've come back, you should marry a good man who loves you. I'm married, so don't waste your time on me." Richard said firmly in the end.
