Chapter 374 If You Love Her, Treat Her Well
In the restaurant.
They walked down.
Lyla and Mark were eating breakfast face-to-face, talking and laughing. They looked very comfortable.
Amanda and Neil walked over and sat down, one on each side of the table. Amanda did not even look at him, as if she was throwing a tantrum.
“What happened?” Lyla asked.
Amanda smiled at her. “Nothing!”
Lyla glanced at Neil, who looked helpless.
However, judging from their bickering, they really did look like a quarrelsome but loving couple.
“Do you have any plans after eating later?” Mark asked as he ate elegantly.
“Aren’t we going for the photoshoot?” Amanda asked.
“I discussed it with Lyla and we decided to rest today. We’ll officially start shooting tomorrow!”
Amanda nodded. “Okay then!”
Neil thought about it and looked at Amanda. “I’ll bring you around later!”
Hearing Neil’s invitation, Amanda smiled at him. “No need, I’ll go back to my room and sleep!”
“Then I’ll accompany you…”
He stopped his words suddenly and glanced to the side. Mark and Lyla were looking at him with strange eyes.
Amanda also understood what he was going to say and stomped his foot fiercely.
Neil’s brows knitted in pain, but he could only swallow back without speaking.
Mark and Lyla could not hold back their laughter.
“If you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll murder you!” Amanda threatened in a low voice.
Neil looked at her, finding that this woman was getting more arrogant and powerful. She did not take him seriously at all.
However...
He liked it.
No matter how she acted, he liked it.
Neil did not realize that he could be such a degenerate.
Mark glanced at the quarrelsome couple and said, “After breakfast later, I’ll go out for a walk with Lyla, so we’ll be leaving you alone. We’ll see you tomorrow at 9!”
Neil nodded. “Ok, just leave us alone and go play!”
Mark raised his eyebrows and shot a look at Lyla, who simply laughed.
Thus, after breakfast, Lyla and Mark went on a slow tour of Paris hand-in-hand. Just watching their figures was enough for people to feel envious.
On the other hand, Amanda was just about to go upstairs after eating.
“You aren’t going out to play?” Neil asked her.
Amanda glanced at him. “With you around, I don’t want to go anywhere!”
“It’s not every day you come to Paris. Do you really want to spend it sleeping?” He asked.
In fact, Amanda was very tempted. However, if she went with Neil, would that not be tacitly agreeing to their relationship?
“There might not be any time left after the photoshoot. We might just go straight back!” Neil continued to say.
Amanda looked at him and knew his thoughts and motive when she saw the bright light flashing in his eyes.
“So what? It’s not like I can’t come back again next time!” Then, she walked away.
Neil stood where he was. He just did not believe that she was not tempted.
As soon as she heard that they were going to Paris, she became exceedingly excited. How could she be willing to just sleep the trip away?
According to his understanding, she definitely would not!
Thus, he was in no hurry and did not follow.
After Amanda went upstairs and saw that Neil did not follow, she was secretly glad and went inside her room. There, she changed and came back out.
She looked around when she came out, but did not see Neil, and was relieved.
She used a scarf and covered herself up.
However, just as she walked downstairs, although she was covered up, Neil recognized her at a glance because of her glasses.
Her disguise became useless.
After she went out, he put down the newspaper and could not help but laugh. Then, he got up and followed her out.
Thinking that she successfully escaped from Neil, Amanda found that the air outside felt better. Looking at the buildings around, she breathed deeply the smell of a foreign country.
She took out her phone and took pictures as she walked, trying out anything new she saw.
She never noticed the person following not far behind her, watching her with a deep and focused smile on his face.
Neil also knew that she wanted to avoid him, so he did not show himself.
According to Lyla, he could not act shamelessly if he wanted to win her heart. He had to sincerely do something for her.
Thus, Neil followed behind her the entire time. Whatever she did, he did behind her. When she took pictures in front, he took pictures behind. When she took selfies of only herself, he took pictures with the two of them. Although she was always in the background, her tight back and profile were always so natural and beautiful.
She passed by some stores and looked at some items, but did not buy them because they were expensive. After she left and walked ahead, Neil walked in from behind and bought everything she looked at.
That day, he did not do anything except follow right behind her. Although she did not know, Neil still felt very satisfied.
He hoped that one day, they could revisit Paris, and that time, they would be holding hands unlike now, where he was just silently following from behind.
Thus, time flew by as they had fun and soon it was evening. When Amanda came back to her senses and wanted to go back, she was dumbfounded.
She simply did not remember how she got here, and did not know how to hail a taxi either.
Thus, she became anxious.
She wanted to call Lyla, but her phone was out of battery after taking pictures all day.
From afar, Neil seemed to see her thoughts and shook his head helplessly. How glad he was that he had been following her. If he lost her, he would have died of worry.
Taking out his phone, he dialed a number.
Ten minutes later, as Amanda was walking step by step, a car stopped in front of her.
“May I ask if you need a ride?” The rider asked.
Amanda was pleasantly surprised and nodded repeatedly. After exchanging a few words with the person, she got into the car.
Looking at the smile on her face and watching the car gradually drive away, Neil finally walked out from behind. He looked at the back of the car, and the corners of his mouth raised with a smile of satisfaction.
He finally understood Mark’s feelings that time. For Lyla, he was willing to do whatever he could, and he was satisfied as long as he could see her smile. It was like that was all they were working hard for.
Neil made another call and waited for the car to pick him up.
……
Back at the hotel, Amanda breathed a sigh of relief and repeatedly thanked the driver before going back.
Today was both really fun and really tiring.
However, just as she was about to return to her room, she paused, because the room opposite hers was Neil’s.
What did he do today?
She thought about him for a few seconds before abruptly shaking her head when she returned to her senses. What was wrong with her? Why was she thinking about him for no reason.
Thus, she immediately swiped her card and went back to her room to rest.
When Neil came back, he went straight to her room and rang the doorbell a few times.
Amanda opened the door and said rudely after seeing him, “What? Did your shower break again?”
Neil was relieved to see her in the room and gave her something in his hands. “This is for you!”
“What is this?”
“Food. I know you have the habit of eating at night!”
Amanda froze.
She originally wanted to give him a few choice words, but he...
Seeing that she was not moving, Neil walked over and stuffed the items in her hands. “Rest early after you eat!” Then, he turned and walked to his room.
He opened the door, walked in, and closed the door.
Amanda was stunned.
What the hell?
Did he have a sex change?
He never stopped pestering her. Why was he suddenly using tactics of stirring up emotions now?
Amanda was frozen in place for a minute. When she returned to her senses, she looked at the things in her hands and closed the door.
To be honest, she had finished showering and was ready to sleep, but was hungry and could not fall asleep. Just as she was thinking about how to find something to eat, these were delivered to her door.
The softness of her heart was still touched.
Amanda did not stand on ceremony. After returning to her room, she opened them up and her eyes brightened when she saw the food.
She started digging in with gusto.
When she finished eating, she sat on the sofa and rubbed her stomach with a satisfied look.
Neil was not as bad as she thought.
See, with just a meal, she was already bought off.
After eating, Amanda went to bed contentedly.
In the other room, Neil came out of the shower and rubbed his hair. However, when he saw the phone on his table, he remembered something and walked over to pick it up.
He was someone who never took pictures, yet surprisingly there were dozens of pictures in his gallery that were all taken today. The pictures were either of Amanda and him together, or Amanda alone.
He scrolled through the photos and finally found one of her making a wish at the wishing pond, and set it as his screensaver.
Looking at the picture, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
‘Amanda.
‘No matter who you are, don’t even think about leaving me in this life.’
……
Early the next morning.
They met up on time.
When Amanda arrived, Lyla was almost done with her makeup.
Lyla’s temperament was originally very elegant, but with the white wedding dress and tiara, and that makeup, she looked so beautiful that it was unreal.
“Lyla, you’re so beautiful!” Amanda said.
Lyla laughed. “When you get married, you’ll be like this too!”
Amanda smiled.
“Okay, hurry up and put on your makeup!”
Amanda nodded and hurriedly sat down to do her makeup.
The shooting time was three days, with people completely serving them during that time.
The first day, they shot in places that were a bit more classical.
Taking pictures was a very tiring job, so Mark was very considerate of Lyla for fear that she would get angry.
Neil was also very considerate to Amanda, but he kept a small distance.
However, he was never too close or too far, giving Amanda a very strange feeling.
This was a common fault of people. When a person was habitually good to you, you got used to it, but when this person suddenly stopped being attentive one day, you would find it very strange.
You would be curious why he was like this!
Amanda felt the same. Although she was slightly sullen, she told herself that this was what men were like. They only held interest for a short amount of time. It was fortunate that she did not fall for it.
Although that was what she thought, when she had to pose with Neil in the bride, groom, bridesmaid and groomsman photos, she still had a very strange feeling when she put her hand in his palm.
