Chapter 902

Penulis: Goldfish
Through the open study door, Gerald could see the figure curled up on the floor.

But he didn't stop. He turned and kept going.

Christopher lowered his gaze, a faint, bitter smile tugging at his lips. In the end, Janice and the Zephyr family's reputation still mattered more than a disobedient son.

Gerald finally caught up to Lucia at the bottom of the stairs. He reached out to grab her, but she jerked away sharply.

"Don't touch me!" Her voice broke, thick with tears, her eyes cold with dis

    "I just can't stand watching them act like that."Samantha lowered her voice. "They're divorced, but they're still acting all lovey-dovey. It's ridiculous."Lincoln said nothing. His gaze rested on Amelia, a complicated look passing through his eyes.He had never understood why Amelia would walk away from someone like Christopher. What confused him even more was how the two of them could still be this close after the divorce.Tania stood nearby with a folder in her arms and noticed it too. Her gaze shifted between Amelia and Christopher, and a knowing smile touched her lips.The mood in the room slowly grew tense.All kinds of people had gathered in one place. Some were allies, some were competitors, and more than a few had history with each other.What looked like a routine project meeting was clearly going to be anything but peaceful.Amelia took a slow breath and braced herself. She knew the next few hours wouldn't be easy. And whatever happened, she and Christopher would

    Christopher smiled."True. Kids have a lot on their plate, too." He opened the car door for her. "Come on. We should get going."Amelia nodded and slid into the passenger seat.The car pulled away from the neighborhood.Christopher stayed focused on the road, quiet and composed as always, but Amelia could feel that something between them had started to change.There used to be an invisible distance between them. Even when they were together, things never felt this natural.Now, something as simple as a morning greeting and breakfast made her feel strangely at ease.-Before long, they arrived at the conference center in the city's tech park. Even from a distance, the building looked sleek and imposing. Luxury cars already lined the entrance.Most of the people coming and going wore business attire and carried themselves with quiet authority. It was obvious that plenty of influential people were attending.Christopher parked, and the two of them got out together.As soon as t

    The next day, Amelia got a call from Jasper."Mia, there's an important meeting you should know about. Nova Nine is getting ready to work with FutureDrive on Project 07. The government is holding a special meeting to review the project, and a lot of major players in the industry will be there."Amelia's fingers stilled.Project 07 was the main focus for both her and Christopher right now, so a government-led meeting like this was bound to matter."Got it. When and where?""Nine the morning after tomorrow, at the conference center in the city's tech park." Jasper added, "There'll be a lot of people there. Lincoln and Samantha are both going. Tania's on the guest list, too. It's basically an industry-wide event. A lot of companies will be there."Amelia frowned slightly."Alright. I got it."After they hung up, Amelia sat there for a moment, thinking. Then she called Christopher.He picked up almost immediately. In the past, he rarely answered her calls that quickly.His low vo

    "Jasper, is all this putting a lot of pressure on you?" Winona asked.Jasper shook his head. "I just think if we're going to do this, we should do it right. I don't want you getting the short end of the deal.""Still, thank you." Winona looked at him. "For agreeing to help me, and for putting so much into this.""We're friends, aren't we?" Jasper smiled. "Friends help each other out."Winona thought about that. The more she did, the more his logic made sense. This really was more of a partnership than a relationship.She nodded. "Then I'll do my part, too.""Your part?"Jasper kept his eyes on the road, a faint smile on his lips. "I'll take care of the engagement. All you need to do is keep living your life the way you always have. Go out, have fun, do whatever you want. You don't have to feel tied down by any of this."Winona blinked. She hadn't expected him to say that."Even if you meet someone you like, you can still date him." Jasper's tone stayed calm. "This is just an

    Jasper glanced at Winona, his expression serious. "We've known each other for years. Of course, your mom's going to be suspicious. Maybe I didn't do enough today to convince her I'm serious. That might be why she reacted the way she did."Jasper had never been the type to give up easily, especially when this arrangement affected Winona's reputation and her freedom.Winona felt a strange mix of guilt and gratitude, along with a faint flutter she couldn't quite explain. She looked at Jasper as he focused on the road and suddenly thought that this impulsive engagement might not be such a bad idea after all.Jasper's voice broke the silence. "By the way, I'm going to talk to my parents tonight."Winona turned to him. "About what?""Setting up a formal meeting with your family to talk about the engagement."His tone stayed calm.Winona stared at him, stunned. It took her a second to find her voice. "Wait... You're serious? I thought we agreed this was just to get our families off

    Jasper could tell where the conversation was headed, so he kept a polite smile and waited for Nella to continue."But I still don't think you and Winnie are a good match," Nella went on. "You've been friends for years. You know each other too well, including all the good and bad. That's fine for friendship, but marriage is different."Winona opened her mouth to argue, but one look from her mother stopped her."I'm a little tired. I think I'm going to lie down." Nella set down her coffee cup and stood. Her tone had cooled considerably. "You two can keep talking. I'm going upstairs."The message was obvious. She wanted Jasper to leave.Winona's expression darkened as she watched her mother walk away.Jasper stayed calm. He gave the back of Winona's hand a light pat, silently telling her not to get upset."It's alright. If your mother's tired, she should get some rest."Jasper stood and gave Philip a polite nod. "Mr. Farrell, we won't keep you any longer. We'll come another day.

    The pessimistic situation Nicole was in didn't quell her pride in the slightest.Amelia couldn't help but chuckle. "You're quite impressive, really," she said as she stood up. Casting a look of disdain at Nicole, she added, "Making yourself sound so high and mighty when you're actually begging fo

    Tania took a deep breath."Mr. Chilton, it was a genuine lapse of judgment on my end. I was obsessed with ensuring that justice was served. I wanted to stand up for a child whose answers were stolen by another. Many people in this world try to succeed by underhanded means. I hate people like that,

    Amelia and Jasper hung up after their conversation.Mr. Hale had reviewed her thesis and found no issues with it, so Amelia went ahead to submit it. After she did so, she stared at the screen and sighed. The next day, Amelia arrived at Institute 511 and overheard her colleagues from the technical

    Amelia was starting to get an idea of what was going on in Dorothy's mind.Perhaps Dorothy had seen the online article and was trying to stand up for her. Dorothy had always doted on her and couldn't bear to see her mistreated.She pursed her lips and said gently, "Grandma, there's nothing of that
