Reborn Without You Chapter 988
Amelia shook her head lightly. "I just think relationships should happen naturally. You shouldn't rush into something just to escape the past. My life is peaceful right now. I have Evie, and I have a job I love. That's enough for me."She remembered what Winona had told her that morning."Don't reach out to him, and don't contact him. If he comes around, pretend you don't see him."For the first time in a while, her thoughts suddenly felt clear.Maybe she hadn't been trapped in the past at all. Maybe she simply hadn't met anyone who truly moved her, and Lincoln clearly wasn't that person.Lincoln watched her unmoved expression and knew there was no point in saying more. He could only sigh softly. "Alright. I respect your choice, but I still want you to know that my feelings won't change. If you ever change your mind, or if you run into trouble, you can always come to me."Amelia gave no further response.The private room fell quiet again, filled only with the faint clink of

Amelia said nothing.Lincoln set down his glass, lightly tracing the rim with his fingertips as his gaze settled on Amelia's tense profile. His voice stayed calm. "Ms. Sinclair, a man like Mr. Zephyr isn't worth holding onto."Amelia paused with her utensils in hand. She didn't look up, only replied softly, "Mr. Spencer, let's discuss the investment details instead. I still need to submit a report to the Academy this afternoon."She deliberately steered the conversation away, unwilling to get tangled up in personal matters again.Especially with Lincoln. Ever since they first met at the resort, his interest in her had made her uneasy.But Lincoln had no intention of dropping the subject. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on her."As far as the project goes, my team has already coordinated most of the details with the Academy. Once you approve it, the funds can be transferred next week. But work isn't the only reason I asked you here today."He paused before speaking m

Winona continued, "From now on, remember this: don't reach out to him, and don't contact him. If he comes around, pretend you don't see him. If he wants to play happy couple with Samantha, let him. Whatever he does is none of your business."Winona's words hit Amelia like a splash of cold water, slowly clearing the fog in her mind.After a few seconds of silence, she gave a small nod. "Yeah. I understand now. Thanks, Winona."After hanging up, Amelia took a deep breath. The moment she stepped out of the break room, she heard her coworkers talking nearby."Look, Mr. Zephyr's here. He actually came to have lunch with Ms. Bloom!""Seriously, I'm so jealous. Mr. Zephyr treats Ms. Bloom so well. He's that busy and still made time to eat with her.""Well, of course. They're engaged. Of course, they're all lovey-dovey!"Following everyone's gaze, Amelia saw Christopher walk into the office carrying a carefully packed lunch, heading straight for Samantha's desk.The second Samantha l

By the time Amelia arrived at the Academy of Aerospace, the parking area outside was already packed with cars.The moment she stepped out of the vehicle, she spotted Samantha standing near the entrance to the office building, as if she had been waiting for her.As soon as she saw Amelia, Samantha hurried over with concern written across her face."Ms. Sinclair, are you okay after last night? You drank so much that I was really worried." She smiled gently. "That's why I specifically asked Chris to stay behind and take care of you. I was afraid you'd feel sick in the middle of the night with nobody there to help."The words "specifically asked Chris" instantly made Amelia uncomfortable.Samantha's tone carried a subtle emphasis, as though Christopher staying behind to care for her had happened with her permission. The concern felt less like kindness and more like charity."Thank you for your concern, Ms. Bloom. I'm fine." Amelia's voice remained calm and detached. "And I appreciate

Christopher looked at Evelyn, and his entire expression softened instantly."Yes," he said gently. "I promised I'd bring you to school, and I keep my promises."Amelia turned toward her daughter. The bright excitement on Evelyn's little face made the refusal stuck in her throat.After a few seconds of silence, she tried softly, "How about I take you instead? Daddy still has work to do.""But Daddy already promised me!" Evelyn puffed out her cheeks and grabbed Christopher's hand tightly. "Daddy, are you leaving again?"Christopher crouched down and rubbed her head, his tone steady and certain."No. I took time off today just to take you to school." Then he looked up at Amelia. "I already promised Evie last night. I'm not going to break that promise."Amelia looked at Evelyn's hopeful eyes, then at Christopher. The defenses she had spent so long building quietly collapsed.She knew she couldn't refuse anymore. She couldn't let her own emotions disappoint her daughter, and she cou

Amelia leaned against the headboard, gripping the bedsheets tighter and tighter until her knuckles turned white.Looking at Christopher still standing there without moving, she suddenly let out a low laugh filled with sarcasm and self-mockery."What are you doing exactly?" she asked hoarsely. "Feeling sorry for me? Trying to throw me a little charity?"Her voice was rough from the alcohol, but every word landed sharply in the air like ice."I don't need it. Just leave already! Stop standing here and being an eyesore."Christopher remained where he was, tall and motionless. His face showed almost no emotion, but he made no move to leave either.He only looked at Amelia with unreadable eyes, as though countless words were trapped behind them, only to dissolve into silence in the end.The sight of him like that only made the anger inside her burn hotter. She opened her mouth to say something else, but a wave of dizziness suddenly crashed over her.The alcohol surged through her sy

"Gerald is reminding you that you don't need to fear. He'll back you up as long as you don't do anything to go against his rules and discipline," Winona said. Amelia naturally caught the meaning behind his words.As a high-ranking official in the country, Gerald was upright, incorruptible, and ha

Amelia entered the study.Gerald was seated, a cup of tea in his hand."Have a seat," he said with a smile.Age left its mark on his face, but it certainly did nothing to diminish the air of authority and command about him.Amelia took a seat and asked, "What did you want to see me about?""Not

Amelia gave Christopher a call. His phone rang for a long time before he answered."Thought it through?" Christopher's voice sounded thick and hoarse through the phone, as though he had just woken up.Amelia didn't care about the details, nor did she care what he was doing right now. She leaned ag
