The week following her unsettling dream passed slowly for Amelia.

She fell into a new routine, the haze of her previous life receding day by day.

Though the path forward remained unclear, encouraging calls from Harrison gave her the will to keep placing one foot in front of the other.

He gently pushed her to focus on goals only she could define, not what others demanded.

Amelia knew with the Caldwell name behind her, doors would open once she gained financial freedom.

    Amelia sat alone in her bedroom after the disastrous confrontation with her father, mind churning with turmoil.

    The sun was dipping low when Amelia returned to the imposing Davidson family estate after spending a carefree afternoon in Harrison's company. Their time together always seemed to fly by, hours vanishing like mirages. Pulling up the winding driveway, she spotted her father's sleek black town car parked prominently before the grand entrance. With a sinking feeling, she realized he must have arrived home early while she was out.Inside, her footsteps echoed hollowly on the polished marble floors. The cavernous rooms were conspicuously empty - no servants bustling about, no sounds of her mother or sister chatting. An oppressive stillness hung in the air.Approaching her father's study, Amelia froze when she heard his voice within, tersely conversing with someone. She lingered outside, reluctant to interrupt.The tone of the discussion was impossible to discern through the heavy wooden doors. But she could tell his mood was irritable, words clipped and impatient.After several minu

    That night, after Amelia's encounter with Harrison at the mall, she arrived back at the imposing Davidson family estate as dusk settled over the manicured grounds. Inside, the cavernous mansion was silent, only her footsteps echoing on the polished marble floors. She was relieved to find her family absent from the halls and sitting rooms, wanting solitude after the emotional rollercoaster of the last few days.Once in her suite, Amelia changed into a comfortable silk nightgown and sat at the antique vanity to brush out her long hair. She still felt unsettled from the odd sense of being watched at the mall earlier. Pushing the uneasy feelings aside, she took out her phone to text Harrison, letting him know she was home safe, as he had requested. Soon his reply came through: "Glad to hear it. Sleep well, Amelia."She wrote back goodnight and climbed into the plush king bed, switching off the bedside lamp. Silvery moonlight filtered in through the tall windows overlooking the garde

    Opening up more, she described her family's callousness. "Everything changed so quickly - Alexander's betrayal, Isabella taking over as heir. My parents used to dote on me, or so I believed.""Now they treat me as an inconvenience." Harrison shook his head. "I don't understand how they could be so cold. You clearly have a brilliant mind for business.""Their loss will be my gain." He smiled at her. "Who knows - maybe we'll launch an enterprise that leaves your family's in the dust." Amelia had to laugh at the bold proclamation. She appreciated Harrison envisioning a future where her talents could shine."You may come to regret saying that when I propose crazy ventures," she joked. They bantered playfully about potential ideas, from novelty pet products to gourmet food trucks. For the first time since her world imploded, Amelia felt a spark of excitement about what lay ahead."In all seriousness, I admire your entrepreneurial spirit," Harrison said sincerely. "I want you to kno
