Chapter 187

Author: Goldfish
Christopher turned his attention to the document on his desk and said flatly, "I've never noticed."

Nigel pursed his lips but said nothing more.

Christopher's response wasn't surprising, to say the least. He had never cared about Amelia and naturally wouldn't pay attention to how she had changed.

Nova Nine's projects were going smoothly, but the execution required financing.

That meant the need for more partners, which was solved by the fact that many companies were knocking on their door

    Amelia let out a small sigh, put her phone away, and forced herself to focus on work.At the same time, Christopher was alone in a hotel room.He hadn't left Rivendell the night before. Instead, he checked into a hotel not far from Amelia's place. He wanted to be close enough to feel near her, but he wasn't brave enough to knock on her door again.He leaned back against the headboard, eyes closed. At some point, he drifted off.In the dream, Amelia stood in front of him, her expression cold as she handed him two documents and asked him to sign.He had always trusted her, so he signed without reading them.His voice was distant as he told her not to let her or Evelyn bother him again. After signing, he handed the papers back and walked away.At a dinner party, someone pushed through the crowd and spoke to him."Mr. Zephyr, your wife and daughter were cremated today. Please go to the crematorium to collect the ashes."His heart skipped a beat. He refused to believe it.He drove

    Christopher knew that leaving like this had hurt Amelia and Evelyn again, but he didn't know how to face them.He leaned against the cold wall in the hallway. Only after the tight pressure in his chest slowly eased did he push himself upright.He took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down.Then he pulled out his phone and called Nigel."Keep a close eye on Jayden. I want to know who he's been meeting with lately and whether there's been any unusual money moving around."Christopher's voice had returned to its usual cool edge, steady and unreadable."And keep track of Gerald's movements. If he's still in Rivendell, let me know right away.""Got it, Mr. Zephyr. I'll have people on it immediately."Nigel's voice came through the phone, sharp and efficient.After hanging up, Christopher stood there, staring down the empty hallway, his thoughts still unsettled.He knew he had been too harsh with Amelia just now, but he didn't know how else to face her. He was afraid his

    "Your body hasn't even recovered, and we don't know if Gerald is still nearby. What if something happens to you out there?" Amelia said, worried.Christopher tried to shake her hand off, but he didn't have the strength.He could feel the warmth of her palm through the thin fabric of his sleeve. It seeped in, slow and steady, and the faint warmth it stirred only made the guilt hit harder."You don't need to worry about that." His voice was tired. "I can handle my own problems.""Christopher, can you stop being so stubborn?" Amelia's brows pulled tight. "You're not alone anymore. You have me, and you have Evie. We're both worried about you. Can you think about us for once?"At the mention of Evelyn, Christopher froze.He thought about last night, about her small voice asking if he was sick, and the way she looked at him, like she wanted him to stay.Something inside him gave way.He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, all that was left was exhaustion and a quiet surrender

    Amelia looked at Christopher and paused.The room fell quiet for a few seconds.Then she spoke, her voice calm. "Okay."As soon as the word left her lips, her eyes locked onto him. "But you need to tell me why you're trying to keep your distance from me. What's really going on in your head? Before this, Jessica told you to stay away from me, told you not to see me again. Is that why your mood's been off? Is it because of me?"Each question landed like a fine needle, pressing into Christopher's chest.His hand at his side tightened slightly as he took a slow breath. "I haven't sorted out my emotions yet. I'm not in a place to answer you right now."He had always been the type to plan everything. Every answer, every decision was thought through, measured out so nothing could go wrong.But now, with the weight of depression dragging him down and everything with the Zephyr family throwing him off balance, he couldn't give her a clear or steady answer.He was used to doing thing

    Amelia came out of the kitchen with a bowl of heated chicken soup. The moment she stepped into the living room, she saw Christopher fast asleep on the couch.She slowed to a stop, gently set the bowl down, and walked over. As she looked at his pale, worn face, something tugged at her chest. A quiet ache spread through her.She reached out, wanting to smooth the crease between his brows. Her fingers hovered just above his forehead, then slowly pulled back, afraid of disturbing the rare peace in his sleep.Amelia turned and went into the bedroom, came back with a light blanket, and carefully draped it over Christopher.She crouched beside the couch, watching him in silence for a while before getting up to clean the dishes scattered around.Just then, the bedroom door creaked open, and a small figure peeked out.Evelyn stepped out in pink bear pajamas, rubbing her sleepy eyes, her hair messy. She was clearly woken by the noise from the living room.The moment she saw Christopher ly

    Northon.Christopher was in the hospital, hooked up to an IV.Nigel walked over. He took a deep breath before saying, "Mr. Zephyr, your father went to see Amelia."Christopher's gaze went cold.He didn't say a word. He yanked out the IV and got to his feet.Nigel knew Christopher's condition. He had been running nonstop like this for too long. His body couldn't take it.But there was no talking him out of it. Nigel could only follow.By the time he got outside, Christopher had already driven off without him.Nigel clenched his jaw, jumped into another car, and took off after him.Christopher sat behind the wheel, his face pale. A dark bruise was spreading across his arm where the needle had gone in, but he didn't pay it any attention.He knew Gerald too well. If it meant finding Janice, the man would stop at nothing. Amelia was stubborn and blunt. If it came down to a confrontation, she wouldn't come out on top.Christopher ignored the doctor's warnings and the fact that his

    Amelia lowered her head and walked toward the washroom to treat the burn on her chest.She looked at the red patch around her collarbone, where she felt searing pain just from mere contact with her shirt. She furrowed her brows, but knew she couldn't do anything about her wound just yet.She could

    "What do you feel like eating tonight?" Christopher asked Nicole. "Let's start by ordering in the private room."If anyone didn't know the relationship between Christopher and Amelia, they would have thought these two were complete strangers.Nicole smiled and wrapped the coat tighter around herse

    Jasper looked at Amelia, a flicker of pain in his eyes."He really treats you like that?"Christopher didn't even glance her way and walked openly with another woman.Nicole wasn't even a full-time employee at Zephyr Group, yet she could come to negotiate a deal. Other than being treated like the
