Chapter 794

Author: Goldfish
Amelia paused for a moment before saying with slight difficulty, “Or do they think that I’m your Achilles’ heel, and having me under their control is leverage over you?”

Christopher froze for a second.

Silence ensued in the room, leaving only the ticking of the clock resounding in the quiet night.

He said, “Both.”

Amelia’s heart fell with a thud.

She should have known.

Given her unique status and ownership of key data of national-level aerospace and aeronautics projects, she was a prime ta

    Amelia knew that Jessica was right and that she ought to let go of things.However, the thought of Christopher in a hospital because of her, bearing with the pain all alone, made her heart clench. She couldn’t bring herself to let it go.“I got it,” Amelia said hoarsely. “I won’t bother him or ask about this anymore.”After hanging up, Amelia stared at Jessica’s name on her phone for a long time.The documents were still on her desk. The reporting procedure tomorrow at the National Space Administration was stated clearly on the documents, but she wasn’t in the mood to read any of it.She walked to the window and looked at the street lights below, feeling something weighing heavily on her chest.She thought she could begin a new life after leaving Northon. She didn’t expect Christopher to still affect her so deeply and she couldn’t seem to shake him off entirely.As the night went on, only the sound of the clock ticking could be heard in the quiet room.Amelia pulled out her pho

    The silence on the other end of the phone engulfed Amelia. Her fingertips grew cold, and all she could hear was her own breathing. When Jessica’s voice finally sounded, there was a kind of calm that penetrated Amelia’s heart.“You care very much for him, don’t you, Amelia?”Jessica’s voice was almost monotonous, but it was like a fine needle that pierced through the hesitation in Amelia’s heart. “If you want an answer from me and care about what happened to him, that means you don’t really want to draw the line with him. If I were to tell you the answer today, will you two go back to being endlessly entangled with each other again?”Amelia swallowed hard. She wanted to refute Jessica, but the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't speak a single word.She cared. When she heard about the car accident, she couldn’t deny that her heart had leapt to her throat. When she was scrolling through her contacts and looking for Jessica’s number, she couldn’t deny that her fing

    Evelyn turned back to look at the orphanage. She whispered, “Mom, will things get better for Nathan?”Amelia caressed her head and said tenderly, “Yes, they will. As long as he is willing to be good, things will get better for him. What we need to do right now is to lead our own lives well, okay?”Evelyn nodded solemnly. “Yeah! Mom, I like our new home. We will never be apart from now on!”-Night fell. Evelyn had fallen asleep, her breathing steady against the pillow.Amelia sat at her desk in the living room, her bowed as she looked through the information required for her reporting at the National Space Administration tomorrow.The soft scratching of a pen nib against paper was the only sound in the room.Suddenly, her phone buzzed with Jasper’s name on the screen.Amelia answered the call, some ink left on her fingertips.“Are you at Rivendell already?” Jasper’s voice came through the phone.That warm, familiar voice brought Amelia some comfort.She tidied up the documen

    Amelia forced herself not to dwell on those thoughts anymore.-After a three-hour drive, they finally arrived at Rivendell.Amelia had rented a house with a small yard, comfortable enough for her and Evelyn.After spending some time unpacking their things, Amelia brought Evelyn to a nearby supermarket to grab some daily necessities.When they walked past an orphanage, Evelyn suddenly stopped in her tracks and pointed at the steps at the entrance. She yelled, “Mom! Look! Isn’t that Nathan?”Amelia looked in the direction Evelyn pointed at and saw a tiny figure curled up at the steps. His clothes were soiled and torn, his hair in a mess and his face covered with dirt. It was Nathan indeed.Her heart grew cold in an instant. She never expected to see him here.After Tania’s company was declared bankrupt, she thought Nathan would leave with Tania. She never expected Tania to send him to an orphanage.“Nathan?” Evelyn shook free of Amelia’s hand and ran over to the boy.Nathan

    Amelia placed Evelyn carefully in the car and buckled her in. She covered Evelyn with a blanket before going around the car hood and settling down in the driver’s seat.When she started the engine, she subconsciously glanced in the direction of the private room Christopher was in. The lights were now switched off, but she didn’t know if the people inside had left and if anything had happened.She shook her head and forced herself to stop thinking about it.It had nothing to do with her, she told herself.-The next morning, when day broke, Amelia got out of bed and finished up her packing.After putting the luggage cases at the door, she carried Evelyn, who was still yawning sleepily into the car and settled her down inside.She took a final look at the apartment she had lived in over the past few years. She had laughed, shed tears, and lived a life of mutual dependence with Evelyn, all of which she was going to bid a formal farewell to right now.“Mom, when will we reach our n

    A red error message that read “Message failed to send” popped up. Amelia tried pressing the send button a few more times.To her dismay, her text remained stubbornly in the text box, refusing to be sent out.“What’s going on?” Amelia whispered, biting her lips with her brows furrowed.She exited the chat and navigated to Christopher’s number which she pressed. What she heard was a cold, mechanical voice. “The number you dialed does not exist, please check and try again.”Does not exist? Amelia’s heart fell with a thud; she even stopped breathing for a while.She thought about the look of indifference in Christopher’s eyes when he brushed past her and those frightening threats from those people inside the private room. Anxiety crept up her spine.“I need to make a call,” Amelia said anxiously to Winona before quickly stepping out of the private room, not giving Winona a chance to respond.It was dim along the corridor, making the wall decorations and paintings appear slightly

    "Why should I?"Amelia looked at Christopher's cold, hard face. "Christopher Zephyr, what right do you have to command me?"She turned and looked icily at Tania. "If this happens again, I won't let you off with just a simple slap."With that threatening look on her face, Amelia looked excepti

    Amelia was clearly rejecting Christopher.The contract only stated that she couldn't reveal the fact that they had been married and were now divorced. It didn't require her to return to their marital home and put up an act with him.Christopher said nothing and put his hand down."Chris, let Ms.

    Luke stuck a hand in his pocket. "Just Evelyn. Maybe she feels she won't be able to get Nathan. At least she knows her place well enough not to bring it up.""She didn't bring it up?" Caleb said with pursed lips. "She's pretty set on severing the relationship, huh?""Yeah. Nathan's her biologica
