What was Amelia doing now? She was busy admiring the photos of the handsome men she had
collected in the past.
Ever since her fight with Frank, she no longer took sneak shots of beautiful men. She did not get many
chances to do that either because Frank constantly instructed his men to bring her over to the
Mendelson Residence and ordered her around as if she was his servant.
Knock. Knock. Sophia pushed the door open and entered the room.
She found her daughter standing next to the wall and silently admiring her past masterpieces. "Amy, it's
nearly noon. Why aren't you at work yet?"
As much as Sophia disagreed with Amelia's 'job' at Mendelson Residence, she knew her objections
were useless.
Amelia had agreed to Frank's request to work at Mendelson Residence as a kitchen hand in charge of
soups. Although she was employed as one, Sophia kept having the feeling that he purposely arranged
this job for Amelia to approach her, while the job was merely an excuse to deceive everyone.
Earlier on, word of Frank's schemeful action of pursuing someone else's wife had spread like wildfire in
town. Now that things had died down, he set his sights on Amelia.
As such, Sophia was worried that he regarded Amelia as Kendall's replacement. However, her
husband and son respected Amelia's wishes, so she could not quite comment on that.
Disregarding the fact that Frank had previously gone after a married woman, he was objectively a great
man worth marrying.
Sophia, like everyone else, believed the reason why he pursued Kendall's hand in marriage was that
he was against Dylan, so he wanted to fight for anything that belonged to Dylan. In other words, Frank
was not truly in love with Kendall.
"I don't feel like going to work today." Amelia did not turn around but continued to stare at the photos.
Yet, as she looked at them, she suddenly felt her sight blurry, and the people in the photos turned into
Frank. She quickly came to her senses, and his face disappeared.
I miss Frank, though I'm looking at someone else's photos. I've only been apart from him for less than a
day, yet I've started to miss him?! At that moment, she was shocked to realize that she was infatuated
with him.
"Did you fight with President Mendelson?" Sophia expressed her concern.
"No." Amelia denied. "President Mendelson and I aren't that intimate to fight with each other. Even if we
did, I wouldn't dare to skip work."
Sophia kept her eyes on Amelia's side profile and found her captivating. She reckoned that her
daughter had stunning features. Subsequently, she turned to look at the entire wall filled with photos of
unfamiliar men and heaved a sigh.
It was her and her husband's fault for not correctly guiding her when they discovered their daughter's
hobby. On the contrary, they believed their daughter was sheerly keeping a collection of handsome
men's photos. Since she was not going to bother those men, it could not have been a big deal, and
since she enjoyed it, they were happy to let her be.
It was at that moment that Sophia regretted this.
Their daughter had become increasingly out of control because of their accommodating behavior. In
return, their daughter's reputation became tarnished in the social circle of the upper echelon, so she
remained single up to this point. It would be an endless wait for them to see her get married.
Sophia was concerned about her daughter's future. Furthermore, Amelia had become entangled with
Frank because of this hobby too.
"Amy, is there any chance that things could still work out between you and Caleb?" Sophia found it
quite a shame.
She was great friends with Harriet, so if Amelia ended up marrying into the Mullinsky Family, there
were surely not going to be any issues between Amelia and Harriet. Yet, after Harriet and Sophia set
up the blind date for their children, their friendship was slightly affected because of the failed date.
In reality, Amelia had yet to tell her mom that Caleb was gay. He was willing to date her only because
he wanted to use her as a cover-up.
Even if he was keen to have kids with her after their marriage, it was purely to resolve the issue of
continuing the Mullinsky Family lineage. The minute she became pregnant with a child, he would
subject her to a life of celibacy for the rest of her life.
That was not the type of marriage life Amelia was after, and she would rather live by herself.
Afterward, Caleb sought her again, but as soon as she showed him proof—obtained from Frank—that
he was still in the closet, Caleb left her alone from then on.
Somehow, Harriet's attitude toward Amelia became exceptionally unfriendly too.
She had a niggling suspicion that Caleb had badmouthed her in front of his mother. Perhaps he
accused Amelia that she did not find their family good enough because she was after a richer man like
Frank.
Caleb must have thought to spread false lies about Amelia before she could say anything bad about
him because he was worried she would expose his closeted secret to Harriet. As such, he chose to
portray Amelia badly so that she would lose her credibility.
That's a bit vile of you, don't you think, Caleb? To think that I never even intended to use your secret
against you. All I wanted was for you to leave me alone, Amelia complained.
She remained his secret despite facing her mother's question. "Mom, I never developed feelings for
Caleb, and it was all platonic. How are things supposed to work out?"
"I thought he was quite infatuated with you." Sophia prodded, "Or were you secretly crushing on
President Mendelson that you find Caleb… meh?"
Harriet had repeatedly hinted to her that Amy found Caleb an unworthy match.
Although Sophia did not believe that was her daughter's true colors, she was unable to clarify the
situation because Amelia was indeed close with Frank.
"Mom, that's nonsense. I will never be able to date Caleb because I discovered his secret."
"What secret?"
Amelia remained momentarily silent before asking her mother, "Did Mrs. Mullinsky say something
about me?"
"She didn't say it outright, but she repeatedly hinted that you found their family unworthy compared to
the Mendelsons. She hinted that you wanted to marry President Mendelson instead. I used to be best
buddies with her, but now, our relationship is affected because of your failed date."
As a mother, it was instinct to defend their kid. Harriet fended for her son, and naturally, Sophia
supported her daughter too.
"Mom, Caleb's in love with someone else, not me. He was willing to date me because he needed to
find someone his mom was pleased with to be his cover-up. I would end up in a horrible state if I dated
him."
Suddenly, realization dawned upon Sophia. "Oh, is that the case? Why didn't he tell his mom? Is the
girl from a worse-off background and their families aren't of equal social positions? Is he worried that
his mom will break them up, so he didn't dare to let her know?"
Most people in their social circles cared very much about making a match of equal social position. It
was rare to see the story of Cinderella unfold in real life.
Even Kendall and Dylan were not exactly Cinderella and Prince Charming, for the Parkers were
wealthy. They just were not as wealthy as the Colemans. Kendall was the only daughter of the Parker
Family, so she would be the sole inheritor of the Parker Family fortune. As such, a life of wealth was
her birthright, and there was no way she could be described as Cinderella.
"He is in love with someone, and I'm not sure of their family background. All I'm aware is that the
person he's in love with would be unacceptable to most parents."
At that moment, Sophia was taken aback. "Is he in love with a… courtesan?"
After a brief silence, Amelia replied, "It's not a 'she'."
"Not a what? Amy, is he in love with a man? So, he's not straight?" Sophia questioned in shock.
Amelia affirmed with a grunt.
Sophia was stunned beyond words at that moment. After realizing the severity of the situation, her
expression immediately changed as she scolded, "How dare he lie to you! It was fortunate that you
discovered he wasn't straight because otherwise, you would've become a beard for the rest of your life.
How dare his mom blame you for this! It was her son's fault!"
