Chapter 408 - 406: Amelia Needs Help



After they had their conversation, James popped his head by the door.

"Am I disturbing you both?"

"No. You\'re not disturbing James. Come in." Amelia beckoned James to enter.

"So, how was it? Did you both have a good talk?"

"Yes. I\'m glad that it turned out fine." Relief was evident in Amelia\'s words.

"That\'s good. However, it\'s time for you to drink this."

A nurse also came in bringing a glass of water and a small plate containing two pills.

"What\'s that?" Jin Jie immediately asked after seeing the pills.

"Don\'t worry brother. This are like my vitamins." She tried to simply explain not minding the fact that she was trying to sugar coat the true purpose of these pills.

"You\'ve seen the cuts on her thighs, right?"

"Yes."

"She\'d need these to stabilize her mood. To stabilize the chemical imbalance on her brain so she won\'t become very moody." James was also sugarcoating. In fact, these pills were medications to help her with her severe depression.

James was thankful that Jin Jie came to a very critical moment. His arrival in Amelia\'s life was like a life-saver for her.

"I see." Jin Jie understood what he was saying though and decided to continue asking him alone later.

"Thank you for taking good care of my sister while I was not around."

"Don\'t worry Jie. She\'s been a good girl." James said with pure affection.

"I see. However that didn\'t mean that I would allow you to pursue her. She\'s still too young for that."

Amelia made an awkward laugh while James only looked at her with a gentle smile.

"Are you both a thing?"

"No brother!" She strongly said while looking at him.

"At least not yet. Actually, I am pursuing her. But I know that she\'s still young and still has a long journey ahead of her. I\'m willing to wait though. For her." James clarified.

"Good. She\'s still young. And I don\'t want anything to hinder her future. Relationships are like distractions." He said but somehow he felt himself as someone who was bitter when it comes to relationships.

After all, he didn\'t have someone to call as his.

Seems like Eunji would continue occupying a large space in his heart.

"I agree brother." Amelia harrumphed and crossed her arms over her chest in agreement.

"Right. But drink these first."

"Is that safe?" After hearing what she had gone through, even Jin Jie was skeptical to let her sister drink another medicine.

"Don\'t worry. They\'re safe. Though it\'s unbranded, I can assure you that my source was very reliable." James reassured. But seeing the doubt on Jin Jie\'s face, he decided to add, "She had been taking this medicine for a month before our escape and she had been herself since then."

That\'s when Jin Jie was convinced.

After seeing that Amelia was done with her medicine, James sighed and it caught their attention.

"What\'s wrong?"

"Sy Ying thought that his dead and the last time I have heard from their side, he was now after Nathaniel Bai. He thought that he killed you. He was also preparing everyone to invade KSA."

"What?!" Jin Jie was surprised to know of this.

"What\'s wrong?" Amelia innocently asked.

And these made Amelia to be curious. After all, she had no idea about Eunji\'s existence. It was hidden from her.

The information she got from Sarah the last time she listened in one of their conversations over the phone was how Asia was related to Jin Jie. And not Eunjie herself. She did heard of Eunji but she thought that this name was an alias used by Anastasia.

Meanwhile, James already had a little knowledge about this since he was once a colleague of Dr. Frank Albert. And one time, the latter had approached him bringing Anastasia\'s records.

And that\'s when the latter spilled the tea about the fact that there were two of them, one was Anastasia and the other was Eve.

He stopped himself from telling this to her since she was still unstable. And after hearing from his most trusted source that they had managed to kill the other one, he was sure that she\'d be depressed again regardless.

Now, he could only look at the clueless Amelia on the corner.

"I have to go!" If Nathan\'s in danger, Eunji would surely be worried right? Not only that, the KSA was also in danger.

"Nathaniel Bai is very important to Eunji. I by any chance something will happen to him because of me, I will not forgive myself, ever!" He strongly said.

"Do you mean Anastasia-unnie, right?"

"No. Ana is Ana. Eunji is Eunji. They\'re different because they\'re sisters."

"Sisters but - "

Before Jin Jie could continue his explanation, James interupted, "No, Mr. Jin. As your doctor, I strongly advised you to stay here. It\'s not good for you to move around in that condition."

"He then turned his attention to Amelia who was frowning as she was trying to put two and two together.

"And as for you. You have to rest. Let your brother to rest, too." However much to his surprise, Amelia stubbornly refused him.

"No! I want to know! I want to know the things that I don\'t know!"

"Wait, are you trying to tell me that you don\'t know about Eunjie? How did you know that they\'re after her family?"

Even Jin Jie was also puzzled.

"That\'s what I want to know, too!" She had grown up around Asia though it was Eunji who brought her in.

Eunji had to hide since she was still so young. She was still nine years old when she found Carmella.

Asia was older and so she was always out and everyone could see her.

She was still young to understand things back then that\'s why they had decided to hide this from her.

It\'s easy for a child to get confused, right?

"I\'m in no position to tell you this but since this concerned you too, I will."

James wanted to stop him since it\'s not yet the time for Amelia to learn everything.

But Jin Jie had thought of the opposite.

"Eunji and Anastasia are two different person. The one who found you was actually Eunji. I think given their circumstances back then, you have grown up around Asia." He said his best take on things. Which was actually accurate.

"What?!" She got up from the bed and looked at Jin Jie and James in disbelief.

So all these years she had been believing in a lie and deception?

Seeing the disappointment on her face, Jin Jie somehow felt bad looking at her hurt face. At the same time she was angry of being lied upon.

"Then...who are they after now? Is it Asia-unnie or Eunji?"

"It\'s Eunji."

"That\'s enough. Amelia, go back to your room. And Mr. Jin, can I exchange a few words with you?"

"Su-re." He stuttered as he was unaware of what he had done.

"They lied to me?!" She almost said in a whisper.

"Amelia, it\'s not what you think. They didn\'t lie to you." Jin Jie tried his best to comfort her.

"How can you explain it though? I thought she\'s one and the same. Aunt Sarah is right. No one loves me. Everyone would only want to use and lie to me."

James and Jin Jie got up as they were worried upon hearing this coming from Amelia.

"Amelia, look. Eunji has her reasons. Please understand her. She\'s in constant danger because of Su Ying and the people who wanted to inflict harm to her and her family. Being a mercenary is not easy. You\'re there. You have seen it yourself in your young eyes." Jin Jie said as he tried to convince her.

"Mr. Jin\'s rigjt. No one could understand her better than you. I\'m sure her feelings towards you are all genuine. Does it matter if there\'s two of them? If I were you, I\'d be glad to know that there are two of them. You have two sisters to look up to." James added to support Jin Jie\'s statement.

Amelia frowned as she was really bothered by it.

"Look, why don\'t you take a quick rest first. Give it a thought. Weigh it in your heart. If your mind was so confused, follow you heart." Jin Jie said making Amelia to be surprised.

"How did you know that?"

"That\'s what Eunji taught me. I\'m sure she told you that, too, right?"

And she nodded in response.

"Please don\'t be upset with Eunji. She\'s the kindest person I have ever met. She even accepted me even after knowing that I am the grandson of Su Ying."

"Your brother is right Amelia. Give it a sleep first and come out when you have made a decision."

After a moment of constant convincing, Amelia finally obeyed them.

She reluctantly left the room and went to her room leaving James alone with Jin Jie.

Jin Jie\'s expression became serious and without beating around the bush, he asked, "What\'s happening to her?"

"That\'s one of the side effects of the drug that your aunt Sarah had been feeding her for nine long years. She easily got confused and would be easily agitated by things. Let me tell you frankly, I\'m hoping that your existence would help on her full recovery."
