Chapter 12 Amelia was staring at the man, not knowing what to say. Finally having a closer look at him, she realized just how good-looking he was. His face was flawless, not a single spot could be seen, his eyebrows were neither thin nor thick, and his eyes were deep and mysterious. It was as if he could see through anyone just with a single glance. His nose was sharp and straight. It was perfectly situated on his handsome face, enhancing his ethereal beauty. His lips were thin. They had a pinkish color and coupled with his light skin, he looked like a supermodel. She swore in her heart that if this man was to become a celebrity, everyone will have no choice but to bow to him. Amelia was lost in her thoughts as she looked at the man. It was not until she heard a deep chuckle that she realized just how close they were. They were so close that their breath seem to intertwine. With the clacking sound of the partition, her heart also drummed in her chest. She hurriedly looked away as

Chapter 14 "Sis, it has been such a long time since we saw each other. When you first left, I tried calling to apologize that it was not your fault that I lost my baby but I could not get a hold of you. It was my fault back then for being careless, I am sorry that no one believed you." Layla said. Her eyes were filled with a sincere light and anyone who saw her would think that she has really suffered over the years and she really meant what she said. Tears had started to gather in her eyes and she looked fragile. But Amelia did not have any reaction. She did not even spare a glance as she continued to walk over to the elevator. She was about to step into the elevator when her hand was held from behind. "Sis, can you forgive me? I never imagined that things would turn out like this. I did not imagine that my falling in love with Oliver would hurt you so much, I have been living in guilty all these years and I haven't had a day of peace. You can even ask Oliver." Layla

Chapter 16 After dropping the bomb, Axel went back to read his documents. It was as if he did not care about the impact of his words. It was as if he was telling his assistant to go and get him a cup of coffee. Peter felt that this was the hardest mission of his entire career. Find his boss a wife, he could as well go buy himself a coffin. "Anything the matter?" Axel's cold voice reached his ears and his heart almost jumped out of his skin. "Nothing boss. I will go execute the matter right away!" Peter said. It really was hard being the tyrant's assistant. Although the benefits were good and tempting, it really was life-threatening. Peter walked towards the door with shaking legs. He did not dare waste another second in the office or else he might be told to just bring over the marriage certificate. When he reached the door, he remembered something and he turned to look at his boss who had his face buried in documents. He mastered up all his lifetime courage and a

Chapter 18 “What the hell!” Chloe was the first to come back to her senses. “Amelia, what is going on? What did Peter mean by all the things he said?” Amelia looked at her friend and shrugged her shoulders feeling like her view of the world has been turned upside down. “Ooh my goodness, did this man just propose marriage to you?” “I don’t know girl, I am just as confused as you are. But who does that? Who comes to someone’s house and says I want you to marry my boss? Where is the logic in that?” Amelia asked. She was still recovering from the shock that Peter had dropped on her and her sleep was completely gone. “What will you do?” “What can I do? I am not going to marry some stranger that I have just met. I don’t even want to think about it. What I want now is a job and to move on with my life.” Amelia spoke. Although she has never been shocked like this in her entire life, she was not about to throw herself at a man she knew nothing about. “But Amelia, you have to admit tha

Chapter 20 “Amelia, stop right there!” Eva howled. How could she just walk away? Did she know what their family would be losing if she just walked away? Amelia stopped in her tracks and looked at the old woman. “What do you want? Weren't you eager to chase me away just a moment ago? What is it now?” Amelia asked in a cold voice. “What are you talking about? Quickly invite Mr. Dawson in. Don’t just stand there. Your grandfather has been asking about you for a long time now.” Eva tried to soften her tone. She did not know the relationship between these two so, she did not dare make any assumptions. But she knew that she had to stop Amelia from leaving and once she became acquitted with Axel, she will deal with her without worry. “I don’t want to disgrace anyone and I don’t want to ruin my grandfather’s day. I will be back in a few days and see grandfather.” Amelia spoke. The five people who had come out watched as the black Porsche drove away under their gaze. They were so shocke
