Amelia returned to the venue, once again surrounded by a group of men.
This time, however, she maintained a slight distance.
Not far away, Marsh glanced in her direction. Seeing Amelia keep her distance from those people relieved much of the dissatisfaction in his heart; it seemed like Amelia had taken his words to heart.
Yet he was unaware that Amelia had already crafted an image of him as a scumbag pseudo-gentleman.
The reason for keeping her distance had nothing to do with Marsh; it was only that she didn't know if Godfery had left yet, and she didn't want Godfery to see her getting close to other men.
Amelia never wished for Godfery to see her calculating and malicious side.
Amelia quietly answered the questions of those around her, and more and more people began to notice her.
She seemed to radiate light, so beautiful that no matter where she stood, she became the focus of the crowd.
