Amelia quickly snapped back to attention and sat properly in her seat.
She looked down at her black leather boots, feeling a tingling sensation on her scalp, and placed her hands on her knees, slightly bent over.
She repeated the same motion her roommate had just made.
This was troublesome!
Ethan had actually come to attend the opening ceremony!
And with the appearance of the First Commander, almost everyone's attention in the venue was focused on Ethan.
Most people were staring at the commander, admiring his almost perfect appearance!
His silver-gray hair was pressed down by the brim of his hat, his features were exquisite and three-dimensional, yet his gaze was incredibly cold.
His snow-white gloves disappeared into the deep blue military uniform, and his black military boots gleamed with a faint silver sheen.
Handsome, cold, aloof, powerful.
Ethan was already an idol in the hearts of most military academy students. After he removed his mask, his godlike appearance made the entire venue fall silent!
Even though Amelia had seen the First Commander's face in the news before, seeing him in person still left her amazed!
Amelia even heard her own heartbeat!
She instinctively looked up, and her eyes met Ethan's gaze in midair.
Amelia was stunned, but Ethan had already walked gracefully to the seat arranged for him by the principal.
Although it wasn't the first time she had seen him, Amelia still felt that the Ethan on stage and the Ethan from that night, crying and kissing her, were like two different people.
How should she describe it?
The Ethan who cooed like a baby made Amelia want to hug and pamper him, while the high and mighty commander on stage made her feel weak, with a song she had heard on ancient Earth ringing in her ears.
"Just like this, you've conquered me..."
Emily noticed Amelia's unusual expression and asked awkwardly, "Amelia, what's wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing," Amelia replied, quickly readjusting her thoughts.
Why was she so nervous? Anyway, with so many people below, Ethan definitely didn't see her. The eye contact just now... she must have been imagining things!
But Grace, sitting next to her, snorted, "What's wrong? Are you too mesmerized by the First Commander? Let me advise you to give up. My sister told me that the commander is already married!"
Amelia thought to herself, I know more about this than you, sister!
And from the commander's perspective, your sister should be calling me 'little aunt'...
Amelia glanced at the proud little peacock Grace with complicated eyes, then turned her head and said nothing.
She tried to minimize her presence, avoiding looking at the stage again, to avoid any eye contact with Ethan... They were so far apart, separated by so many students.
Ethan shouldn't be able to see her... right?
Most of the time was spent with the principal and other guests speaking, especially the principal, who spoke for over an hour!
When it was finally Ethan's turn, the students around held their breath, eagerly awaiting the words from the stage.
Even Amelia cautiously lifted her head to look towards the stage.
Ethan began to speak.
"I hope everyone will study hard, improve themselves, and serve the empire in the future, conquering the vast expanse of the stars together!"
The students were excited, shouting together, "Conquer the vast expanse of the stars!" Amidst the enthusiastic applause of the students, Ethan and the other guests, along with the principal, left the stage. The students were still immersed in the excitement for a long time.
Some girls were so excited that they fainted!
Even as she was carried away by her classmates, one girl with her eyes closed muttered, "Commander is too handsome!"
Not afraid of idols being handsome, just afraid that idols are capable and incredibly handsome!
Amelia felt a little speechless. Wasn't this a bit too exaggerated? How thick were their filters?
Amelia couldn't help but admit that the man was indeed very handsome, but the content of his speech was just too grandiose.
But then she thought, he didn't notice her and just left like that, which made her feel relieved.
Amelia and Emily decided to go to the school library. There was also a mecha training room in the library.
After all, they weren't combat majors, so they might not have the chance to use it in the future, but they could still go and take a look.
However, before they could take a few steps, Amelia's microcomputer beeped. When she opened it, she found that it was a message from Ethan!
Ethan: Let's meet.
Amelia: "..."
Sure enough, he did see her!
Although Amelia felt a little nervous about meeting the Commander, she knew that some things had to be resolved.
Perhaps Ethan was here to discuss their divorce.
A person of his status had precious time, so he must have agreed to attend the freshman opening ceremony as well as to discuss their divorce...
Amelia apologized to Emily, saying she had something to attend to and left. Then she followed Ethan's message on her microcomputer and walked into a teaching building.
It was unbelievable that there was an exclusive lounge for Ethan in Beylincoln University!
Thinking back to the admiration Ethan received during the opening ceremony, Amelia covered her face... She really wanted to go back to the night before the wedding and wake up her previous self who was so easily swayed by looks!
The door, gleaming with white metallic luster, beeped and slowly opened. After Amelia entered, the sensor door closed automatically.
With a click, Amelia thought, the sword of Damocles has finally fallen.
Following the geometric patterns on the black and white carpet on the floor, she quickly saw a man sitting on the sofa, massaging his forehead.
He took off his hat, unbuttoned his military uniform collar, and revealed the sliding movement of his Adam's apple.
Damn sexy!
What was even more damning was that Amelia even remembered how good his ears, covered in furry hair, felt!
Wake up! This person is about to get divorced, and you're still daydreaming!
Amelia cleared her throat. "Commander Ethan, I'm here."
Ethan raised his head, nodded slightly at her, and motioned for her to sit opposite him.
Amelia tried to remain calm and not look at Ethan's head... She couldn't forget the incredibly cute furry ears she had kissed!
"Madam, would you like something to drink? We have fruit juice, coffee, sweet cocoa, and plain water here." A housekeeping robot rolled over, but its voice was that of Tiger.
These housekeeping robots only followed commands and didn't have their own intelligence, so it was easy for Tiger to control them.
One of the reasons for Tiger's enthusiasm was that it hadn't expected the Madam to be the broadcaster it had been a fan of for a long time!
To be able to come into close contact with her idol naturally made Tiger excited!
Another more important reason was that it wanted to flatter its mistress.
The master was too straight, didn't know how to comfort his wife, and left Tiger, an AI, to worry about it.
Amelia remembered Tiger's voice. "Plain water will be fine, thank you."
"Okay, Madam." The robot rolled over to the bar to pour water.
Amelia couldn't help but feel a little emotional when she heard the title it used. After a while, she might not be called by this title anymore.
For a long time, Ethan didn't speak. He sat back in the chair, looking exhausted.
One hand was resting on his forehead, and his long legs were slightly bent, looking restless.
Amelia felt immense pressure being alone in the same room with this high-ranking man.
And as time passed by, all she could think of in her mind were the scenes of that night when Ethan's sensitive period erupted!
Frame by frame, it made Amelia feel like her ears were burning!
She decided to cut to the chase!
"Commander Ethan, are you here to divorce me?"
