"If that really were the case, why did he give me that warning? What good would it do him?" Amelia pondered.

"Must it benefit him? He wants to help you of his own accord. He found out his son isn't his biological child and has been driven out of the Zephyr family. He only has a daughter now, and he might not remarry. You're the mother of his only daughter. Even if he doesn't have feelings for you, he wouldn't leave you in the lurch," Jasper said.

Even if he tried to act like he didn't care, C

    Samantha bit her lip and said softly, "Chris, forget it. Let's not argue with him. I'll manage."She knew Jasper's background, and she knew pushing back wouldn't end well for her. For now, she could only back down.Christopher looked at the server. "Leave the dish. Bring Ms. Bloom some lemon water."The server quickly nodded and stepped out.The private dining room fell quiet again, but the silence had turned awkward.Amelia picked up her fork, took a piece of rib, and tasted it. The familiar flavor spread over her tongue, but it no longer stirred much in her heart.After what had just happened, she understood even more clearly that whatever had existed between her and Christopher was truly over.Jasper watched her eat in silence, then picked up his own fork and placed another piece on her plate. "Take your time. No rush."The farewell dinner ended in silence and discomfort.When they left the restaurant, Jasper naturally took Amelia's hand. He gave Christopher and Samantha a

    Christopher immediately set down his fork and reached over to rub Samantha's back. "What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?""The ribs smell way too strong. I think I'm going to be sick."Samantha's voice took on a wounded edge as she glanced around the table, her displeasure barely concealed. "Who ordered that? Doesn't everyone know I'm pregnant? I can't handle the smell of meat right now."She had grown up spoiled, used to everyone around her making adjustments for her comfort. Now, with Amelia and Jasper sitting right there, she didn't even bother hiding the entitled streak in her temper.Christopher frowned and looked up at the server. "Take that away.""Wait."Jasper spoke before anyone else could. His tone stayed calm, but there was a firmness in it no one could miss. "Amelia likes that dish. Ms. Bloom, if the smell bothers you, you're welcome to sit farther away. There's no need to make the whole table adjust to one person's preferences."The hurt look on Samantha's face

    Amelia watched the city blur past the cab window, warmth spreading quietly through her chest.She knew Jasper was worried about her, and she knew Samantha's invitation probably wasn't as simple as it sounded. In the end, she nodded. "Alright. Thank you."After hanging up, Amelia sent Jasper the restaurant address. The uneasiness in her chest slowly faded.With Jasper beside her, she wouldn't have to face whatever Samantha had planned alone. She wouldn't have to deal with Christopher's complicated looks either.-At six sharp, Jasper appeared downstairs at Amelia's apartment building.He wore a dark suit and carried a coat over one arm. When he saw Amelia walk out, he immediately went to meet her. "It's windy tonight. Put this on so you don't get cold."Amelia took the coat and draped it around her shoulders, warmth settling over her. "Thank you, Jasper. You really didn't have to go through all this trouble.""It's no trouble."Jasper opened the car door and shielded the to

    Amelia looked at Samantha. "I don't think that's necessary. If the two of you have dinner plans, you should go together.""Is this because of me?" Samantha asked. "Is that why you're leaving? Now you won't even have dinner with me?"She pressed her lips together. "You have such a bright future here. If you're leaving now, there has to be a reason. If I did anything at work that upset you, you should tell me. I really do hate losing you as a colleague. We've worked well together."Amelia listened, and a cold laugh rose quietly in her chest.She had heard plenty about Samantha's background. Her father was a senior figure in the aerospace sector, which meant Samantha's future at the Academy of Aerospace had always been secure.And yet Samantha kept acting guarded around her, always finding subtle ways to stake a claim on Christopher.That strange insecurity almost made Amelia want to laugh."Ms. Bloom, you really don't need to be so nervous."Amelia stopped walking. A faint smil

    Keith's face tightened with concern."You really don't have to do that. I already told you, I didn't mean anything by it. I was only trying to help."Amelia looked at the anxiety on his face, and a quiet warmth moved through her.Keith was a good man. Kind, honest, and sincere. However, she couldn't give him what he wanted.She shook her head gently, her voice warm but firm. "Mr. Burns, don't blame yourself. My resignation has nothing to do with you. I just want to go back to Northon, build my career there, and make things easier for my daughter. That's all."She paused, then continued, "You're a good person. You're decent, kind, and serious about your work. One day, you'll meet someone better suited for you, and you'll have the happiness that belongs to you."Keith's fingers tightened around the report until his knuckles turned pale.After a few seconds of silence, he said quietly, "I understand. I was out of line. I shouldn't have put my feelings on you like that. I hope e

    Jasper continued, "If you need help with Evie, I can ask our housekeeper to stop by more often. Or I can have Winona come stay with you for a few days."Warmth spread through Amelia's chest. She shook her head. "You don't have to go to that much trouble. Evie's easy, and I can manage. I just feel bad making you wait longer.""Don't start being polite with me." Jasper smiled. "Take care of your resignation first. If anything comes up, call me anytime."-Two days later, Amelia went to Darell's office at the Academy of Aerospace.When she pushed the door open, Darell was reading a technical report. The moment he saw her, he set it aside, his face lighting with a warm smile."You're back. I'm glad the rumors have been handled. You've had a rough few days. Sit down. I'll have my assistant bring you some coffee."Amelia sat on the couch with both hands resting on her knees, her tone serious. "Mr. Carter, thank you for looking out for me during all this. I came today because I wante

    Christopher's voice was too calm and mild, as though he didn't quite regard this entire matter as important.Panic rose in Nicole's throat, but she didn't know where it came from.Christopher told her to plead with Amelia so easily.However, that seemed like the only way right now.They couldn't

    If Christopher failed to deliver, it was only a matter of time before Jayden would be back to take over his position."Talk to your father properly and explain the entire situation.
