Reborn Without You Chapter 1106
Amelia felt nothing. She simply nodded politely. “Congratulations.”Christopher stayed where he was, watching her in silence.The strapless gown made her look even more elegant and untouchable than he remembered, the smooth skin of her shoulders and neck glowing beneath the lights.His Adam’s apple shifted as he tried to speak, but Samantha cut him off before he could.“Chris, don’t you think that dress looks a little loose on Amelia?”Samantha looped her arm through his, deliberately pulling him into the conversation. “Maybe the sales associate should bring her a smaller size. Then again... A smaller one might be too snug around the waist. She only had surgery a little while ago.”Her meaning was obvious. She was mocking Amelia’s figure while deliberately bringing up the surgery to humiliate her.Winona had heard enough. She stepped in front of Amelia. “Don’t you think you’re crossing a line, Ms. Bloom? What size Amelia wears is none of your concern. And you’re only engaged

"No. We can't let this go," Winona huffed. "I'll have someone look into it and find out who's behind this!""Calm down." Amelia quickly grabbed her arm. "I don't have proof, and calling the police won't help. If we spook them, it could get even more dangerous. I'll move somewhere else and try to avoid them. That's enough."Winona looked at Amelia's pale face, and the anger in her eyes softened into concern. "Then you definitely need to move in. Security here is tight, and I'll have my family's bodyguards keep an extra eye out. You and Evie will be safe."Amelia met Winona's firm gaze, and warmth rose in her chest. At her most helpless, at least she still had a friend like this beside her.She nodded. "Okay. I'll move in."Winona patted her shoulder and smiled. "That's more like it. Don't worry. With me here, no one's going to mess with you or Evie. Now let's go pick out some dolls Evie will like and make her room look beautiful."-They drove to the mall.As it happened, ther

Then Amelia asked Evelyn, "Would you like to move into a bigger house? One with your own studio and a little garden where you can plant your favorite sunflowers?"Evelyn's eyes lit up, and she nodded hard. "Yes! I want a house with a studio."Amelia looked at the excitement in her daughter's eyes, and warmth spread through her chest.Moving would be a hassle and would probably disrupt the rhythm of their lives for a while, but if it gave Evelyn a safe place to live, it would be worth it.-The next day…Amelia asked Jasper if he knew anyone who could help.Before long, her phone rang just as she was frowning at the listings on the real estate app.It was Winona."I just heard from Jasper that you're looking for a new place?"Amelia said, "Yeah. I'm still looking. I haven't found anything suitable yet.""What are you still looking for?" Winona said. "The villa next door to mine is empty. It was renovated not long ago, and the furniture and appliances are all there. You can ju

Amelia lowered her eyes."I don't think there's anything left for us to say."Her voice was quiet.Christopher watched her in silence, his gaze heavy, as though he were searching for a crack in her calm expression.He opened his mouth. In the end, he only nodded slowly and said nothing.They stood there facing each other, neither of them speaking.For a moment, time seemed to stop.Amelia could still feel Christopher's eyes on her, carrying something complicated she couldn't quite read. But she didn't look back, and she didn't stay.A few seconds later, she turned and walked toward the elevator with steady steps.Christopher remained where he was, watching Amelia approach the elevator. The doors slid open, then closed, cutting her from view completely. Only then did he finally look away.He raised a hand and pressed his fingers to the space between his brows. A tight, lingering ache spread through his chest.The elevator rose quickly. Amelia leaned against the wall, closed h

Amelia's mind went blank. All she could think about was getting out of the parking garage and finding somewhere with people.Panicked, she ran toward the corner by the elevator lobby, barely watching where she was going.The second she rounded the corner, she crashed into someone's chest.A pair of hands caught her by the arms and steadied her. A familiar scent wrapped around her.It was Christopher.Amelia's heart was pounding so hard that it almost hurt. Still shaken, she lifted her head, her face pale. Cold sweat was beading along her forehead, the fear in her eyes not yet gone.Then she instinctively looked back.The figure that had been following her was gone. Only the empty garage stretched behind her, washed in harsh white light, with nothing moving in sight.Christopher looked down at her, his brows drawn together. "What's wrong?"Amelia's fingers were still trembling around the strap of her bag. She took a deep breath and forced her voice to stay steady. "What are you

Two nights of constant tension had left Amelia exhausted. The faint blue shadows under her eyes were nearly impossible to hide, even with concealer.She sat with her eyes closed for a moment, then pushed the car door open and stepped out, dragging herself toward the elevator lobby.The elevator doors slid open. A stranger stood inside, dressed in a black hoodie, his head lowered so his face was hidden.Amelia's heart skipped. She stopped short, hesitated for a few seconds, then forced herself to step in.The air inside the elevator felt heavy. Only the faint hum of the car filled the silence. The man kept his head down, his fingers picking absently at the hem of his hoodie. Amelia's unease sharpened by the second.She stared at the numbers changing on the panel, silently counting the floors and willing the elevator to move faster.At last, the elevator dinged, and the doors opened.Amelia stepped out at once. She had just begun to breathe again when she saw Jasper waiting by the

The next day, Amelia didn't attend Mr. Zephyr's burial. There was no need for her to be there, anyway.Rather, she had a brief meeting at Nova Nine's office.After the meeting ended, Josephine came running toward her.She looked at Amelia and said hesitatingly, "Regarding how Nicole was fired, we

"I heard that Mrs. Zephyr is a very outstanding talent," The partner said enviously as he pushed his glasses up his nose bridge. "I must say, Mr. Zephyr must really love his wife to invest hundreds of millions of dollars in such a huge company and launch it with such great fanfare."Hundreds of mil

Amelia looked down and wiped her wet hands on a napkin, listening to Lucia ramble on.Lucia thought she had followed them here, probably in a bid to kick up a fuss over Christopher.What a joke!Amelia lifted her hand and flung the napkin into the trash can. She then looked indifferently at Lucia

Mr. Hale had reserved a private room.The moment they all settled down, he cut straight to the chase."We need a space satellite by this year. We're short of a chief engineer."He tapped on the table and looked deeply at Amelia. "You're good at satellite orbit determination. Join the team for t
