ETHAN'S POV

I barged into Amelia’s office, my blood boiling.

She was seated right behind her desk, and she was engrossed in a document,and her pen moving with fast

The moment the door swung open, her eyes flicked up, locking onto mine.

“It’s alright, Lucas,” she said coolly to her assistant.

“You can leave.”

Lucas bowed and slipped out, leaving us alone.

I marched toward her desk, my fists clenched. Amelia barely acknowledged me, her gaze dropping back to her work.

“You know, Mr. Caldwell,” she said, her voice sharp, “there’s a reason they invented the word ‘knocking.’ It’s so people like you can show some basic etiquette.”

Her words stung, throwing my own past lecture back in my face.

I forced a smile, but it didn’t reach my eyes.

“Why are you doing it?”

“Doing what?” She glanced up, her expression unreadable.

“ Stop playing dumb, Amelia,” I snapped, slamming my hand on her desk.

The impact echoed in the room, but she barely flinched, her composure infuriatingly intact.

    AMELIA'S POV I stared at Etha one more time, but she was shaking her head at me, taking a step back. “I was right, you’ve changed. You’ve never spoken to Nana Clara like that before.”“Go to your room, Etha,” I said, my voice sharper than I intended. “You don’t understand anything.”“Exactly,” Etha shot back, her small voice trembling with conviction. “I knew you’d say that, but I’m almost nine years old, and I understand perfectly well that you’ve changed completely .” She turned around and bolted up the stairs, her footsteps echoing her refusal to talk to me anymore.I just collapsed onto the sofa, my fingers pressing against my throbbing temple. What was happening to me? Clara had been the one whispering it to me last night, warning me that I was changing, and now my own daughter, who I hadn’t seen in a month, was saying the same thing. This was all Ethan’s fault!!. He was the one twisting me, turning me into someone I wasn’t!!.Lucas rushed into the living room, his face t

    ETHAN'S POVWalking outside the office, Lucas and the others met me standing in front of my door. I was watching them, and the girl looked at me too. She stopped walking, prompting the older woman to call out, “Let’s go, dear.”“Mm hmm,” she nodded.She kept looking at me like she wanted to come over and talk, but Lucas held her back. “Please, Ms. Etha, your mom wants you at home. We shouldn’t delay, Shall we go now?” she looked at him with her beautiful gray eyes, and he seemed startled. He glanced up at me, still watching them like a hawk, not stepping closer but unable to look away.“Good afternoon, sir. I’m sorry I couldn’t greet you while you were in the office,” the elderly woman said with a smile.I nodded, hands in my pockets, but said nothing. My gaze stayed on the little girl, who stared back with the same intensity.“What are you doing, Clara?” Lucas whispered.“What? I’m just sharing a simple greeting,” she whispered back.“Well, stop. We have to leave before ma’am co

    ETHAN'S POVI was so stunned when I heard the little girl’s words. My eyes darted from her to Amelia. Did she just say mommy? Amelia has a daughter? I looked back at the girl, and all I could see was a five-year-old version of Amelia. There was no mistaking it she was definitely her daughter. The realization hit me like a bomb, ringing so loud in my ears.An older woman with white hair, entered the room. Her gaze lingered on me far longer than necessary before shifting back to Amelia. “I’m so sorry, ma’am,” she said, “but she turned up sixty minutes ago with Miles and demanded to see you. I tried to get her to wait for your return, but you know how she can be. I had no choice but to bring her here.”“I was shocked, ma’am,” Lucas added, “when the receptionist called and said there was a woman and a child looking for you. I had to ask them up because I had an idea, but I just couldn’t believe it.”“Mommy?” The little girl called out to Amelia, who stood there, silently looking at e

    VICTORIA’S POV Fiona’s words stopped me cold. Amelia. Yes.. yes.. I remembered the moment she’d threatened me, saying whatever game she played would hit me hard. My blood boiled as the pieces clicked together. “Amelia!!!!!” I roared, smashing the tablet onto the floor. “It’s her.It definitely her.. It just has to be her. She’s the one doing this.” I turned to Fiona, my voice sharp. “Where the hell is she?”“I saw her heading to her office earlier,” Fiona said. “She looked so calm, completely unbothered by all this news. That’s why I suspected her.”“She did this and still has the guts to show her face in my company?” I could feel the veins throbbing in my forehead. “Technically, ma’am,” Fiona said cautiously, “she has the right to come and go as she pleases. She still holds thirty percent of the company’s shares. There’s little you can do to stop her.”“No!” I snapped. “There has to be something. I can’t let her get away with this. Find me something, Fiona. Anything I can use

They also claimed we were seen checking into hotels in Spain and some small town in Montana.The accusations hit like a tidal wave. People assumed I’d sold my body to secure the contract .
