Love in Prime Years

"Rufus!"

Amelia waved hard to Rufus.

"Rufus, do you know that Leigh is gone, you will no longer be able to hold him and sing Little Star to him."

Before Amelia said these words, she began to chocked with sobs.

With her eyes turning red, she rushed to Rufus's Lamborghini and said, "Rufus, can you get off the car? I have something to tell you."

"Get off!" Rufus faintly raised his eyelids and said. At this time Amelia could not find a little bit of tenderness in his eyes that once carried the infinite affectionate and tolerance to her.

Amelia was stunned and choked up.

She took a few breaths hard to speak in a calm tone as much as possible, "Rufus, I really have something very important to tell you. I came here, not for myself, but for Leigh."

Amelia hurriedly pulled out a photo of Leigh she treasured from her purse, handed it tremulously to Rufus in front of his car window and said, "Rufus, look, this is Leigh. I know you may have amnesia, but you liked him so much before, I don't believe you will not be impressed by him at all."

With the window opened slowly, Amelia was so happy. She knew that Rufus couldn't forget everything!

The deep relationship between them was condensed in the depth of their minds. And he couldn't forget their four years of mutual dependence and support!

"Rufus, Leigh had always wanted to see you very much."

Amelia passed the photo in her hand to Rufus and said, "He wanted to hear you sing Little Star to him again."

Seeing that Rufus had taken the photo, Amelia was even more ecstatic. However the next moment, all the joy in her heart disappeared.

Rufus darted a glance at the photo, sneered with the disdain. He torn the photo unceremoniously, and then threw it away fiercely.

The fragments of photo scattered all over, and in the end, they all flew at Amelia's feet.

Amelia stretched out her hands, trying hard to grab them, but in the end she grabbed only a few pieces of the fragments.

She felt like a ghost, knelt directly on the ground, grabbed the debris that fell on the ground, and gathered them carefully. "Leigh, my poor Leigh."

After picking up the last fragment on the ground, Amelia gently put those debris into her purse.

She held her purse preciously, as if what she just picked up was not the fragments of the photo, but a priceless treasure.

"Rufus, you tore up the photo because you get the amnesia, I don't blame you."

Her voice was hoarse and broken as if being torn. And her eyes were dull and there was helplessness in it. She said, "Rufus, I only have one demand. Can you meet the last wish of Leigh?" "Leigh was dead. He..."

Amelia choked up badly. It was really difficult for her now to resume her speaking. She covered her face with her hands and calmed down for a while before she could speak again.

"Rufus, Leigh wanted you to sing Little Star for him again, in the front of his grave."

Rufus sneered with his eyes full of the disgust, "Amelia, what tricks are you playing now?"

"You've been chopped a finger. It's not enough to let you drop the idea forever?"

"Get off! I have told you, if you dare to appear in front of me again, I will kill you!"

"I am not leaving!" Amelia stood straight and said stubbornly, "Rufus, this is his last wish. I beg you to meet his wish, okay? Just sing a song. As long as you fulfill his last wish, even if the payment is that you chop off my hands and feet, I will not regret!" Rufus looked straight at Amelia who was teary in front of him. He didn't know why he felt very distressed when he saw the despair in her eyes.

Thinking of that he actually felt compassion for a woman who was shameless, pestered him again and again, and almost killed his beloved Madeleine, Rufus felt unprecedentedly irritable.

He didn't want to take another look at the woman outside the window, so he closed the car window after he said coldly, "Get off now."

"Rufus, please go to visit Leigh. Please!"

The car had already started the engine. Obviously, even if Amelia was in the front of the car, Rufus planned to drive forward anyway.

Amelia realized his intentions, but she owed too much to Leigh. She wanted to fulfill his wish so much that she still stood in front of his moving car and was unwilling to leave.

Rufus thought that Amelia was really unreasonable. He stepped on the gas, and wanted to hit her directly.

"Rufus, you stop the car! Please talk to me about it."

The car whizzed past. And at the very moment, the two security guards helped Amelia aside, so that she was not hit by that Lamborghini.

The younger security guard looked at Amelia with disdain. He pushed her to the ground fiercely, "Get out! Mr. Moss has a girlfriend. Don't be so shameless to bother him! Why are you so infamous?" He kicked Amelia disgustingly, and left with cursing.

The older security guard who looked at her pitifully and said, "Poor girl, get up quickly! Mr. Moss always has a bad temper. Except for Miss Gibson, he would never treat other women well!" "Don't abuse yourself anymore, and don't come to increase our workload!"

Later, he said something more, but Amelia didn't hear clearly. She just lay on the ground with a confused face, feeling the pain and the spasm of her body.

In a trance, Amelia seemed to hear someone singing Little Star.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star,

How I wonder what you are?

Then the traveller in the dark,

Thanks you for your tiny spark."

Amelia couldn't help wondering where the spark of Leigh would be.

Amelia didn't know how she got herself back to Willow Alley with the infirm body. After getting there, she had blood vomited. She knew that she might die in these few days.

She had to finish the last wish of Leigh before she died.

Even if it was difficult, as difficult as hell, she had to try it again.

The security guards outside the underground garage of the the Moss Building had remembered her. Maybe she would not even be able to get in there next time.

She could only think of other ways to meet Rufus.

Thinking hard about how to meet him again, Amelia suddenly noticed the gold-trimmed invitation letter on the bedside table.

This was the invitation letter for Winter Night Charity Gala of the Harper City.

In her capacity, she was unable to get this invitation letter. This invitation letter was that Arthur gave her before.

He said that in a few days, he would take her and Leigh to participate in this charity feast and broaden his horizons.

They had no chance to take Leigh to broaden his horizons now, but this invitation letter could help her meet Rufus again. Rufus must attend such a grand Gala in his capacity.

The charity Gala was held at the SF Hotel. Amelia briefly got dressed and went there.

It was easy for her to go in with this invitation letter.

She didn't want to greet those celebrities and elites, she came tonight only for Rufus.

Without seeing Rufus in the party hall, Amelia walked through the long corridor, planning to look for him at all places.

Walking through a small, deep and dim corridor, Amelia couldn't but heard some voices of Lillian and a man!
