Chapter 787

作者: Goldfish
Amelia bumped into someone around the bend.

Lucia was wearing a dark purple dress with a brooch. The usual tilt in her chin was gone.

Dorothy's death had shaken things up in the Zephyr household. Lucia was looking rather haggard and exhausted.

When Lucia saw Amelia, she stopped in her tracks. Her lips moved as though she wanted to say something, but she eventually just looked at Amelia with mixed emotions in her eyes.

"Mia," Lucia said, first to break the silence. Her voice was hoarse and l

  • Reborn Without You   Chapter 788

    Before Amelia could say anything, Christopher walked toward her and draped the cardigan over her shoulders. His fingers brushed against her neck, bringing some warmth to her cold skin."It'll turn cold very soon. Put on more clothes."Amelia pulled the cardigan around her. She could still smell the lingering scent of his soap on it. She turned to look at Christopher and asked, "What did you head out to do? Did things go smoothly?"Christopher nodded, his gaze sweeping past the funeral hall. "The guest list, the burial proceedings, and…Jayden. I'm having someone watch him."Amelia stood stunned for a moment but slowly realized what was going on.Christopher had probably realized something was wrong, given Jayden's attitude this afternoon.She nodded. There were many questions swimming in her mind, but it wasn't appropriate for her to ask them right here.Christopher didn't say anything and simply stood by her side quietly, looking at Dorothy's portrait with her.The sky was turn

    Amelia bumped into someone around the bend.Lucia was wearing a dark purple dress with a brooch. The usual tilt in her chin was gone. Dorothy's death had shaken things up in the Zephyr household. Lucia was looking rather haggard and exhausted.When Lucia saw Amelia, she stopped in her tracks. Her lips moved as though she wanted to say something, but she eventually just looked at Amelia with mixed emotions in her eyes."Mia," Lucia said, first to break the silence. Her voice was hoarse and less sharp than usual.Amelia was surprised to see her like this.She had never gotten along with Lucia. Back when she was still with Christopher, Lucia always thought that she wasn't worthy of being in the Zephyr family and always picked on her.The worst it got was at a family gathering, where Lucia accused Amelia of being scheming and wanting to climb up the social ladder in front of everyone. It made Amelia so furious, tears had welled up in her eyes.Lucia always looked so high and might

    "Be happy and at peace?" Amelia repeated his words and burst out laughing, but it sounded cold. "So is this how you're twisting my trust and reliance on you back then? I thought things were innocent between us, and that we were purely siblings. I didn't expect things to be of that nature in your heart."She thought Jayden knew her. She thought Jayden knew the love and pain she held for Christopher, and that he understood her struggles and grievances back then.Now, it seemed like he knew nothing. He was just making assumptions about things between her and Christopher based on his own thoughts.Amelia stood up and picked up her jacket draped on the back of her chair. "If this is all you called me here to tell me, there's nothing more for us to talk about."Jayden stood up, his brows furrowed. "Mia, don't be like this. We…""There's nothing more to say between us," Amelia said, cutting him off firmly. "Let the past remain in the past. There's no need for us to keep in contact an

    Amelia thought back on the past with a frown on her lips. She had treated Jayden as a true older brother. He would always stand up for her no matter what happened, and she loved spending time with him. Jayden had been so doting and accepting of her.At that time, her relationship with Christopher had become stagnant.Christopher was cold and indifferent toward her, while she took Jayden as someone she could share her heart with. She often sought his advice on things.Yet now, was he trying to twist the truth about what had happened?"Now that you mention it, you and Chris back then…" Jayden went on. "I know you suffered a lot. He's such a cold man and didn't know how to treasure you."Amelia tightened her grip over her glass.Christopher was cold to his bones. However, he was brought up to be mature and stable, never saying no to responsibilities he had to take on.Jayden was the only one she could share her heart with.She remembered one time when she was crying to Jayden ab

    "Some people are truly shameless, insisting on a divorce back then and acting all high and mighty with us. Yet now, she's back again to haunt us. Are you thinking of finding support from others in the family now that Grandma is gone and no longer around to back you up?""Stephanie," Christopher warned icily, exuding an imposing and authoritative aura. "You have no right to be talking like that."He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping past Stephanie's flushed face. "It's not your place to be making remarks about the Zephyr family."His words were like stones flung in Stephanie's way, shutting her up and making her flush with anger. She opened her mouth to refute him, but when she looked into Christopher's cold eyes, her words got stuck in her throat. She stomped her feet hard and turned to look away.The air seemed to freeze around them."The police are here," Jayden said, his voice hoarse like sandpaper. He glanced at Christopher and asked, "Did you call them?"Christopher l

    Amelia paused for a moment, her gaze landed on his injured arm and then back again on his face."If you keep pushing me away and insisting on shouldering everything without telling me what happened, how am I going to trust you? You shouldn't stop me from joining you, especially at a time like this."Christopher paused for a moment.He looked at her, her words sending ripples through his heart that was like a deep, dark lake. He moved his lips to say something, but nothing came as he looked quietly at Amelia.Silence ensued in the living room, except for the low hum of the dishwasher that was running.Amelia looked quietly at him, refusing to back down. There was a clear, pleading look in her eyes.She wanted to know what was going on. She wanted to face it with him instead of being kept in the dark like an outsider.Evelyn walked out from the room with her soft toy in her arms. She seemed to be frightened by the tension in the air and started tiptoeing quietly. She looked at A

    "I don't know Mr. Zephyr's whereabouts. He left after the meeting ended and didn't tell me where he was going," Nigel said. "You can always call him to ask him if you want to know where he is."Nicole gritted her teeth and tightened her grip on the phone.She had no choice but to hang up.If she

    Jasper's brows arched. "Is there no friendship between us? How heartbreaking."Winona held Amelia's arm. "Enough of that. Why are you competing for favor with us? Anyway, Mia, you looked awesome in the live broadcast!" After gushing, she glanced in Nicole's way. "I didn't catch a single glimp

    When Winona drove over to pick up Amelia and Jasper, she saw Nicole waiting at the door.She walked over and said mockingly, "What are you doing standing here? Waiting for your man who's not coming out?"Nicole looked coldly at Winona and said nothing. She didn't want to talk to an entitled, arrog

    Nicole's face fell."You haven't changed one bit! You're blowing things out of proportion as usual," she said as she stood up to leave.Jasper looked at Nicole's retreating figure and sneered. She was nothing but a pitiful woman abandoned by the world, just here to salvage her tattered pride and
