Amelia waited for Amos' response but he couldn't talk. He was too busy trying to analyze her question to have time for her.
"Judging from her attitude I can tell she took your love for granted so if you really want her to realise her true feelings for you then you won't run after her ok?" Amelia asked avoiding his eyeballs.
Standing there watching the distance between him and the woman he loves get wider Amos was lost at what to do.
He doesn't want to hurt her or be the reason why she shed tears but as much as he wants this, he also desires to make her reciprocate his feelings.
He hates seeing her upset and he wants her to love him even though not as much as he loves her.
The situation was so complicated that he didn't know what to choose again.
"Think about what you want. You are doing this not only for yourself but also for her so don't be rash about your decision," Amelia said softly, seeing Amos clasped fist.
Meanwhile, as this was going on Tiffany sitting down on a black bench at the edge of the field clenched her fist when she saw Joanna being chased by Audrey.
"I hate that girl's guts," Tiffany muttered her murderous glares glued on Joanna.

"But unfortunately we have to put up with her no matter how much we loathe her…,"
"And why should we do that when we can have our revenge," Tiffany replied. She tilted her head to the right to look at the one leaning against the tall pool.
Because of his body weight the pool swings to and fro.
"Tiff, don't tell me you are still not over your plans of making her life miserable after all that happened…,"
"And why should I be tired when she is still alive and breathing?" Tiffany snapped. She stood up from the bench and stared at the spot she saw Joanna before she disappeared.
"This is why I will need your help and that of your boys," Tiffany now standing beside Logan paused walking in front of him.
"What!" Logan shouted. Instead of astonishment, there was fear in his eyes as he walked a step backwards.
"You must be out of your damn mind right?... Have you forgotten what the King and his heartless men did to us?" He shook his head while talking.
"We barely came out of that horrible place alive and you want to send us to our grave…,"
"Why are you being such a coward, Gan? You are more than this," Tiffany coaxed. She lifted her hand and held Logan's shoulders but he pushed her hand away.
"It must have been easy for you to forget what we went through because you were not the one in my shoes but I haven't forgotten what the lunatic King and his men did to us because of her," Logan amplified.
The mere recalling of that dark room and the series of torture they went through during those days made the usually fearless Logan shudder.
"In fact, I still have nightmares about that place so never will I want to go back there…. No his Majesty promised to kill us if we dare as to go close to her so…,"
"Hey, snap out of it already because his Majesty didn't lock you guys up because of her," Tiffany said with a stern expression.
She reached out her hand and held Logan's hand. She swirled him so that he was looking at her.
Tiffany raised her hand and placed it on his shoulders, "His Majesty did that to the four of you because Grandfather didn't only provoke him but hurt his ego. It wasn't because of that lowlife girl…," Logan pushed Tiffany's hands away from his shoulders.
This time around he was so determined to reject his cousin's request and it showed on his face.
"It doesn't matter what you say is the reason for His Majesty's actions. But what I know is that I won't go an inch close to that girl," Logan was firm about his decision.
He gave no damn whether his decision would upset Tiffany.

Although he can be a bit reckless, he cherished his life of immortality too much to want to get killed so soon.
He turned to leave but the obstinate Tiffany grabbed his hand.
"Gan, I have already told my friends that you and your friends are gonna take care of it like you all always did in the past…,"
"Tiff, drop it already…. Even though I was stupid enough to forget the King's warning I wouldn't forget what Grandpa said. He will kill me…,"
"Grandpa loves you more than he loves his own life. Do you think that someone like him would kill his precious grandson?" Tiffany continued in her quest to convince her cousin to do her will.
"I am sorry, Tiff," Logan apologised. He brushed off Tiffany's hands and proceeded to leave.
"What a disappointment he is," Tiffany mumbled, her piercing glares directed at her cousin's back.
Logan stopped walking after taking about four steps from where he stood. He spun and looked at his fuming cousin.
"The lustful Chancellor is at it again. If you are patient enough I am sure that you will get what you want without having to lift a finger… I don't know whether this is considered good news to you," Logan said meekly. Tiffany's face lights up in a flash.
She hurried to stand beside Logan.
"What does that mean? Be a little more detailed about it," There were sparks in her eyes as she waited for his explanation.
