Chapter 22 - 22: Is Baron Lawrence a Paranoid?!
Enna Clark had just walked out of the villa gate when Auntie Merry who was waiting outside called out to her. She led Enna to a quiet corner of the villa garden, grabbed her hand worriedly, and asked, “Enna, are you okay? I heard that Young Master Baron just lost his temper. Did he hurt you?”
Enna shook her head, “I’m fine, Auntie Merry.”
“That’s good, that’s good. Young Master Baron… sigh…” She hesitated to continue.
Enna didn’t want to know anything about Baron Lawrence right now, so she pursed her lips and didn’t ask. Auntie Merry continued anyway, “Don’t be mad at Young Master Baron. He didn’t mean to hurt you; he just couldn’t control his temper. ”
“…What do you mean?”
“Von know. Young Master Baron has always had a mild case of paranoia- Five
years ago after you left without a word, his condition got worse, accompanied by insomnia. At the worst point, he had to take medication every day but it didn’t work. He later went abroad for treatment for a year and got a little better, but he still often can’t control his temper.”
On her way home, Enna thought about what Auntie Merry had said.
Baron Lawrence had paranoia, and it was severe…
His worst period was after she left without a word five years ago, he once had to take medication and even went abroad for treatment.
Enna couldn’t believe it.
She knew Baron Lawrence always had a strong need for control. When they were together in the past, he wouldn’t allow her to have any contact with other men, even just speaking with them. However, he himself had been involved with Star from time to time. Back then, she didn’t think of his controlling behavior as paranoid, only that he had a prince’s temper and was a typical hypocrite.
It turned out that it was paranoia.
Throughout the journey, Enna was preoccupied. When she got home, she poured a glass of water and warmed her stomach before she slowly came back to her senses.
The next day, Enna arrived punctually at the film set.
After finishing filming her scenes and stepping outside, she saw Amelia Young waiting for her.
Enna had expected Ms. Young to come looking for her so she wasn’t surprised at all. She walked over voluntarily.
“Ms. Young, please wait a moment. Let me put my things away.”
Since Enna was so calm, Ms. Young didn’t know what to say. She nodded as if to give her permission.
After Enna changed out of her costume and handed it to the logistics staff, she returned to Ms. Young. “Sorry for the wait.”
“It’s fine.’
“Does Ms. Young have a question for me?”
“There is something I’d like to ask you.”
Throughout the conversation, Amelia Young had been observing her. After taking a closer look, the weight in her heart grew heavier.
It had to be said, although Enna was not a great beauty, she had a natural charm that attracted men’s attention.
“I remember you told me that you and Young Master Baron had only met once. I want to ask whether you were lying to me?”
Here it comes!
Enna knew that Amelia Young would want to talk about Baron Lawrence, especially after he had sent her to the Medical Office in front of so many people. It would be strange if Amelia, being the official girlfriend, didn’t want to have a “chat” with her.
Instead of letting Amelia misunderstand, she should explain it as soon as possible.
As Enna was about to open her mouth to explain, Amelia brushed her hair back and spoke for herself, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m not here to pursue your past with Baron Lawrence. Even if you don’t tell me, I can guess what your relationship with him was.”
“I came to see you today to ask for a promise. I hope you will not appear in front of Young Master Baron again. It is very troubling for me.”
Her tone was like that of a main wife talking to a mistress.
Enna took a deep breath and looked into Amelia’s eyes, calmly saying, “Ms.
Young, don’t worry. I never intended to appear in front of your Young Master
Baron. Not in the past, not now, and never in the future.”
Amelia’s expression became strange as she looked behind Enna, her eyes a little flustered.
“Baron… ”
Enna quickly looked behind her, following Amelia’s gaze. Sure enough, she saw a man not far away approaching them, his face as gloomy as a Siberian winter with cold air.
—Don’t be mad at Young Master Baron. He didn’t want to hurt you, he just couldn’t control himself. He has severe paranoia.
Enna shuddered all over.
Baron Lawrence’s face was taut, his thin lips tightly pressed together without a hint of curve, expressionless as he approached.
Step by step.
With each step, Enna’s heart raced, and just as her heartbeat stopped, the cold man marched straight past her without even a glance. He headed straight for Amelia Young.
Amelia nervously looked up at him, unsure of how to explain. Her eyes showed her panic, “Baron, I…
Baron Lawrence suddenly reached out and naturally put his arm around Amelia’s shoulder, pulling her possessively into his arms.
Amelia’s face flushed as she suddenly touched the man’s firm chest.
“If you need to know anything in the future, ask me directly. Don’t bother people who have nothing to do with our situation.”
Indifferent, alienated.
It was hard to believe that just yesterday, he was still loudly declaring his lingering feelings for her.
That’s for the best.
Enna exhaled, turned around, and quietly left.
As soon as she left.
The next second, Baron Lawrence released Amelia’s shoulders, his eyes cold. “I have things to do. I’ll go first.”
Amelia took a step forward to stop him.
“Baron, my Auntie wants to invite you to dinner tonight. Do you have time?”
“I’m busy.”
As soon as the words were spoken, he had already walked away..
