"Yeah," Jasper said as he rubbed his temple. "He left, saying that he had something to attend to."

Amelia tightened her grip on the cup of tea, looking slightly lost. Her mind was in a mess, and she tried to clear her thoughts.

"How did the negotiation go? Did he share his stance?"

Jasper nodded. "We're more or less there. I'll visit him again tomorrow."

They had a drop too much, and Amelia was feeling rather unwell. Her limbs felt heavy, and so did her head.

Jasper called for a cab and mad

  • Reborn Without You   Chapter 582

    Nicole might eventually still end up with a few years in jail.Nicole's mind was in a mess. She had no idea where to go from here.All she could think of was that cold, distant look on Christopher's face last night and his vague attitude toward her.She was very ill at ease.He said that he would send someone to pick her up, but until now, no one had come to get her. She hadn't received a call, either.Nicole kept anxiously checking her phone, but it stubbornly refused to ring.It was already about nine o'clock in the morning.Nicole was also fearful that the police might call to ask her to cooperate with investigations. If things were to get to that point, it wouldn't be that easy to get her out.Just then, Tania called."If you still don't have a solution in mind, I bought a flight ticket for you. Come to the airport right now, and I'll send you abroad. There's still hope if you manage to escape, but if you end up with the police, you'll certainly be doomed."Leave the coun

    Christopher and Jayden were the only ones left in the ward.They silently exchanged glances."I find this entire incident and your injury strange. It's too much of a coincidence," Christopher said. "Rather than just thinking that, why not investigate and find the culprit?" Jayden remarked.Christopher looked quietly at Jayden and remained silent for a while. He then stood up and said, "I'll do that right now."Jayden saw him walking away and said, "You didn't come here to see me. You were here to see someone else."Christopher turned back to look at him. "I don't understand what you mean."Jayden smiled as he continued drinking his porridge. "You know very well that you've let her down. Of course, I'll take good care of her for you."Christopher stuck a hand in his pocket. "That's your decision. It has nothing to do with me."With that, he turned to leave."You weren't a willing party back then. It's been unfair for you, married to her for so many years," Jayden said darkly

    In a moment of foolishness, Nicole had taken the wrong path."I know you can help me. It was just a moment of stupidity," she said, taking a deep breath. "I didn't know things would become so severe. I was just blinded by my desire to win. I never wanted to embarrass you."For the first time, Nicole spoke so humbly and pleadingly."Chris, everyone makes mistakes. I really shouldn't have done what I did. Help me, please. If Chad's alive, he'd help me out too…"She deliberately mentioned Chad. Christopher looked calmly at her, seemingly indifferent to her plight."He would," he finally said. "I would, too."He lifted his wrist to check the time. "I'll have someone send you to me for a chat."Listening to him, Nicole heaved a sigh of relief. However, she was still worried and looked at him doubtfully. "Really?"Christopher nodded. "Someone will be able to help you tomorrow."With that, he turned and walked into the house.Nicole finally felt a flicker of hope.There was n

    Nicole's heart clenched at his cold words. Her eyes widened as she looked at him in disbelief. "What do you mean by that?"Christopher stuck a hand in a pocket and looked calmly at her. "How have I treated you?"He spoke so calmly, with nary a rise or fall in his tone. Yet, it crashed over Nicole like huge waves. Rain fell down her cheeks. She bit her lip hard and clenched her fists tight.Taking a deep breath, she said, "You treat me well. Very well, in fact."When she spoke, her voice was hoarse and weak.Christopher had solved every single one of her problems in the name of being friends, and also because she was Nathan's mother."What were you thinking, then?" Christopher looked at her with what looked like disdain.Nicole shivered in the cold.Christopher was making himself very clear.She had designs on something that didn't belong to her. Was she not supposed to desire the position and title of Mrs. Zephyr?At that moment, Nicole felt something breaking inside her.

    But Christopher was no ordinary man.He wasn't led by lust. No matter how hard Nicole tried to exude charm, she always failed.This troubled her deeply.She knew that Christopher liked her. The deeper a man's love for a woman, the more he would treasure her and not pounce on her that way.There must be a reason why Christopher wasn't seeing her right now.Lucia wasn't willing to help when they first approached her. Now, she had changed her stance. This proved that Christopher must be behind her change and was helping Nicole in secret.Nicole continued standing in the rain. She trusted that Christopher would come back today.At about two in the morning, Christopher's car finally rolled into the driveway.Nicole, seeing the bright lights, instinctively blocked her eyes with an arm.The car door opened, and Christopher stepped out with a black umbrella in hand.Nicole's eyes lit up with joy. She walked over to Christopher with a smile."Chris…"Christopher took two steps back

    If Christopher refused to see her, she didn't seem to have any means of seeing him. She didn't even have the chance to talk to him face-to-face.Nathan saw Nicole standing outside in the rain."Nanny, let Mom in."His heart ached for Nicole, especially after seeing her standing in the rain for so long."Mom will catch a cold after standing in the rain for so long. I'll call Dad and ask him to come home."The nanny's gaze was complicated as she looked at Nathan. Things were indeed complicated in the Zephyr household."Isn't Ms. Sinclair your mom?" The nanny asked Nathan. "She treated you very well when she was around."At the mention of Amelia's name, Nathan's brows furrowed."She doesn't want me anymore," he said with a frown. "Wait! I'm the one who doesn't want her. Dad and I don't want her. She doesn't treat me well at all! She lords over me and refuses to let me eat anything I want. She's not my real mom. She just treats her daughter well."Disgust was written all over Nath
