Chapter 71

Cullen did not reply. Rather, he fixed a heated gaze on Miley, wordlessly asking her to leave Amelia.

The little girl read the look in his eyes perfectly yet refused. She secretly tucked out her tongue towards him and sweetly played with the strands of Amelia's hair.

Ariana chuckled softly when she saw Miley's tongue. She bet Amelia missed that. Moving closer to the couch, she stood before Amelia with a small smile.

Stretching her hand out of a handshake, she said to Amelia, "If he wouldn't do it, I would. Cullen has been so ashamed of me all his life so I get it if he doesn't tell you who I am," she eyed Cullen and face Amelia again, "I'm Ariana, Cullen's sister," she wiggled her hand softly for a handshake.

Amelia frowned. She wondered how Cullen thought. How in heaven's name can he be ashamed of a beautiful person like the woman before her for a sister?
