Chapter 871

作者: Goldfish
Christopher finally turned around.

His eyes were bloodshot, his face tight with struggle and pain.

He looked at Amelia's reddened eyes, at the determination and quiet concern in them, and something inside him started to give way.

For the first time in all these years, he wondered if the way he had been "protecting" Amelia and Evelyn had been wrong all along.

"I…" His voice shook slightly as he tried to speak, but the words wouldn't come.

He couldn't bring himself to refuse her. Because deep

    The workload in that analysis file was massive. It was obvious Amelia had handed it to Keith on purpose just to keep him occupied.Keith took the documents, glancing at Amelia's focused profile. He understood what she was doing. It was a clear rejection.He could only sigh inwardly and stand up."Alright. I'll get it done as soon as I can."With that, he turned and left, and the office fell quiet again.Amelia watched him go and let out a soft breath.Just then, her phone buzzed. It was a message from Nigel.[Mr. Zephyr has a flight back to Northon the morning after tomorrow. He stayed out on the balcony half the night again. He's not in a good place. I'm worried that once he's back, he'll spiral again.]Amelia stared at the message, her fingers curling slightly.She thought about what Nigel had told her yesterday, and about the pain and emptiness she had seen in Christopher's eyes. A quiet ache spread through her chest.After a few seconds of hesitation, she opened her chat

    Hearing Amelia's promise, Nigel finally relaxed his tense shoulders, and even his voice carried a hint of relief."Thank you, Ms. Sinclair. From now on, I'll let you know right away if there's anything regarding Mr. Zephyr's condition or any updates on Jayden's side. If you need anything, just call me. I'll do everything I can."Amelia nodded, not saying much more, and turned to get into the cab.As the hotel slowly disappeared outside the window, she pulled out her phone and opened her chat with Christopher. Her fingers hovered over the screen for a long moment.In the end, she locked it again.Some things couldn't be rushed. He had to come to it on his own.-Early the next morning, just as the Academy of Aerospace's office building started to fill with people, Amelia walked into the lobby with her briefcase.She had barely reached her office door when Keith stepped in front of her.He was holding a neatly packaged breakfast, smiling as he handed it over. "Morning, Ms. Sincl

    "Help Christopher?" Amelia's brows pulled tight, her heart dropping. "What's wrong with him? Did Jayden pull something again, or is he sick?"Nigel shook his head, his voice lowering, thick with something he couldn't hide. His eyes were already starting to redden. "Neither."Mr. Zephyr hasn't been taking care of himself for a long time. Ever since Mr. Guthrie died, he's taken all the blame on himself. He thinks he failed to protect him, failed to stop Jayden."And then with everything with the Zephyr family, and with you and Evelyn, his depression just kept getting worse. There were a few times when he…thought about giving up."Amelia felt the words hit her like a blow.Jessica had told her his condition was serious, but she had never said it had gone this far.She tightened her fingers around her bag, trembling slightly. "So that's why he's been pushing Evie and me away? Because he's afraid people will target us because of him?""Yes." Nigel nodded hard, his voice breaking.

    Christopher finally turned around.His eyes were bloodshot, his face tight with struggle and pain.He looked at Amelia's reddened eyes, at the determination and quiet concern in them, and something inside him started to give way.For the first time in all these years, he wondered if the way he had been "protecting" Amelia and Evelyn had been wrong all along."I…" His voice shook slightly as he tried to speak, but the words wouldn't come.He couldn't bring himself to refuse her. Because deep down, he knew she was right.If he kept carrying everything on his own, he would break eventually. And the moment he did, that would be the real danger to them.Amelia caught the shift in his expression and felt a small wave of relief, but she didn't push him further."You don't have to answer me right now," she said softly. "But I hope you'll think about it. Think about the way Evelyn looks at you, and whether there's still another way for us… Not as husband and wife. Not as enemies. Just a

    Amelia looked up at Christopher, her throat tight."Now that we know what happened to Mr. Guthrie and whatever Jayden's planning, we can't just sit around and wait."She took a steady breath, her voice firming with resolve. "This time, I'm not letting you push me away again. Mr. Guthrie deserves justice. Jayden needs to be stopped. And everything between us needs to be sorted out."She held his gaze. "Let's face it together. Okay?"After she said that, the room fell into a strange, heavy silence.Christopher stiffened at her words, then slowly turned away from her.His back was rigid, shoulders pulled tight; even his fingers were trembling faintly.Amelia watched him, the distance in his posture stinging like a sharp needle, but she forced herself to keep going."So you're saying no?" she pressed. "Then at least tell me this: if we get close again, who exactly is going to come after me? Jayden? Or the people behind him? You think shutting me and Evelyn out will keep us safe? Th

    The air in the room felt frozen.Amelia stood there, completely still, staring at the man in front of her like she couldn't believe what she had just heard."I love you more than my own life."The words hit her again and again, heavy as a hammer against her chest.The confession had come too late, and it carried too much weight. It pressed down on her until it was hard to breathe. Tears welled up in her eyes, trembling but refusing to fall.She had only asked those questions because she had finally come to terms with something.Her failed marriage with Christopher had never been entirely his fault.Back then, she had known he was conflicted. She had known he had just lost his mentor and was being forced by his family.And still, she had held on to her feelings, stubbornly insisting on marrying him. She believed that, as long as they were together, everything would work itself out.She ignored the struggle in his eyes and the pain he carried into that marriage. Wasn't that kind

    The moment Amelia hung up, she made a move to leave.Just then, Nicole caught up with her and stopped her from leaving. She was still holding onto a cup of hot tea."I saw you standing here for a long time. Are you looking for Chris? Have some tea. Don't get heatstroke."Amelia saw the steam risi

    "The doctor gave him a fever shot, but it's not coming down. What are we going to do? I'm scared it'll damage his brain!"Anna was panicking. If anything happened to Nathan and Christopher came after her, what would she do?Amelia stayed calm. "Get some alcohol and find the doctor for an additiona

    Evelyn was young, but incredibly thoughtful for her age.Amelia lowered her gaze, a deep guilt pressing in. She looked at Evelyn and ruffled her hair gently, offering a soft, comforting smile. "Just focus on being happy as you grow. Don't worry about everything else."After tucking Evelyn in, Am
