Divorce Count Down Chapter 13
On the third day after Amelia left, Julian tried everything but still couldn’t reach her.
Time kept slipping by, and the panic in his heart grew stronger with each passing moment.
Over the past few days, Elizabeth had sought him out many times, but he turned her down every single time.
So when she finally came to see him and found him looking utterly haggard, she was startled, her eyes full of worry.
“Jules, what happened?”
At this point, seeing Elizabeth appear before him again, Julian’s emotions were extremely complicated.
He had already transformed his feelings for her into familial affection, but had never found the right moment to say it out loud.

“Why did you hide it? Was that fair to Lia?”;
Julian was speechless, not knowing how to explain the complicated feelings in his heart.

The thought that she had become an unwitting catalyst for the
breakdown of their marriage made Elizabeth feel unbearable pain, even though it was unintentional.
“The one you should apologize to isn’t me, it’s Lia!”
“I know, but after the divorce she disappeared, and I can’t find her at all.”
Hearing this, Elizabeth realized that Amelia had truly given up, and felt even more distressed.
No one understood Amelia’s feelings better than she did.
“People can’t just vanish into thin air. If you have no way to contact Lia, it only proves you never really cared about her!”
