The rain that had threatened all night finally began to fall, leaving the gardens of Sterling Manor glistening beneath a veil of mist. Alexander had been awake for hours yet the documents on his desk remained untouched. The brown investigation file Ethan had delivered the previous afternoon still lay open before him. And its contents had refused to leave his mind. Every phone record. Every email. Every unanswered request. Not one had Amelia's name attached to it. And that fact alone just made his certainty had begin to crack. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes as one memory after another surfaced. The wedding day. Amelia had stood before him in silence while he accused her of deception. She hadn't argued or thrown her weight around and instead she had simply accepted every harsh word. Another memory followed. The Foundation. She had spent entire afternoons organizing reports beside Eleanor without on
Amelia didn't sleep immediately as the conversation outside Alexander's study replayed in her mind over and over again. "Enough to settle their immediate debts. There is no need to inform Mrs. Sterling." She had spent weeks trying to prove she wasn't like the family she came from. She had never even asked Alexander for money or used his name. And neither had she even hinted that he owed the Harts anything. Yet in the end..He had decided for her because he believed she wanted exactly what she had refused. And the realization hurt more than she cared to admit. The following days flew by fast into weeks and on one peculiar morning she decided that was it. The sterling Manor was unusually quiet and sunlight poured through the tall windows as servants moved silently through the corridors. Amelia stood inside her dressing room, staring at the black bank card resting in her palm that Alexander had given to her shortly after the wedding. "Use it whenever you need something." She had
The silence between Amelia and Alexander followed them into the days following. They had both decided against reaching out to the other to clear the misunderstandings and it progressively seemed it wasn't the ordinary silence they had grown accustomed to. This one felt heavier and colder as though a door had quietly closed between them during the day it had happened. Amelia barely slept as she kept on replaying the conversation with her parents countless times. Then Alexander's final words. "I knew this marriage had a price." The accusation lingered like a bruise she couldn't touch. Breakfast was served at precisely eight. Alexander was already seated when Amelia entered the dining room with a newspaper which laid unfolded beside his coffee. He didn't look up despite already sensing her presence. She hesitated before taking her seat across from him. "Good morning." He only responded with a brief nod and nothing more. The butler who had seemingly observed the interaction betwe
The morning after the Sterling business dinner passed quietly. And the Sterling Manor had returned to its usual rhythm. Servants moved efficiently through the hallways, breakfast was served precisely on time, and Alexander had already left for Sterling Group before Amelia came downstairs. The previous evening still lingered in her thoughts as it had refused to go away. Funnily it wasn’t just because of the compliments or because of the whispers. Rather it was because of the drive home. "It wasn't for you." The words still echoed in her ears and as she had expected, they still hurt. After breakfast, Amelia joined Eleanor in the study.Stacks of Foundation reports covered the large mahogany desk. "I've finished organizing the scholarship proposals," Amelia said, handing over a folder. Eleanor adjusted her glasses before accepting it. "I noticed. And dare I say you’ve become even more efficient." A faint smile crossed Amelia's face as she felt her cheeks coloring rapidly. "I'm
