Alexander stood up and left the conference room, feeling humiliated and defeated. Andrew sat tall and proud, even as Alexander stormed out of the conference room in a fit of rage. Catherine had been a major shareholder in the company, and her shares were highly coveted. But after her untimely death, there had been a scramble to secure her holdings. Alexander had seen an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and had tried to blackmail Andrew into handing over the shares to him because he was Catherine's lover.But Andrew was not the type to be intimidated or threatened.So he had called Alexander's bluff, exposing his true intentions to the other shareholders in the room. The shame and humiliation that Alexander felt was well-deserved, in Andrew's eyes.With Alexander gone, Andrew turned his attention to the other shareholders in the room."Well, I hope everything is clear now," he said, his voice steady and confident. Instantly, his attention shifted to James Thompson,"

As Andrew's car pulled up in front of the grand mansion, he could feel his anger mounting with every passing second. He stepped out of the car, his face contorted with anger and frustration. He slammed the door shut with a loud thud, causing Nanny Grace to rush out from the kitchen, her wrinkled face creased with concern."Andrew dear, is everything alright?" she asked, her voice laced with worry.But Andrew didn't have the patience to answer her question. Instead, he cut her off sharply, his voice ringing through the marble hallway."Where is Amelia?" He demanded, his eyes flashing with anger.Nanny Grace blinked in surprise, taken aback by his tone. She hesitated for a moment before answering."She's in her room," she finally answered, gesturing towards the stairs. She hasn't been…."Without waiting for her to say anything else, Andrew sprinted up the stairs, his feet pounding heavily against the plush carpet. He didn't bother knocking on the door, but barged right in, his anger s

Andrew's eyes narrowed as he glared at her. "You knew what this was from the beginning," he said, his voice cold and unyielding.She took a step forward, her eyes flashing with anger. "You had no right to raise your hands on me. It didn't give you any right to hit me."Andrew felt a pang of guilt as he looked at her tear-streaked face.He knew he had hurt her, he hung his head in shame, unable to meet her gaze."You're right," he said finally, his voice barely above a whisper. "I had no right to speak to you like that, to accuse you of something you may not have done. I let my anger get the best of me."Amelia snorted, her eyes flashing with anger. "You think?" she said sarcastically. "You know nothing about me, Andrew. You don't know what I've been through, and yet you think you can accuse me of selling your shares?"Andrew winced at her words, feeling ashamed of his behavior. "I didn't mean to hit you, Amelia," he said, his voice softening."What was this from the beginning? A busin

Andrew turned and walked towards his study, leaving Nanny Grace standing alone in the hallway, wondering what could have caused such a rift between Andrew and Amelia.Nanny Grace knew that Andrew needed space, but she couldn't just leave him alone in his study when he was clearly upset. She quickly rushed to the kitchen to rinse her hands and headed towards Andrew's study.When she reached the door, she knocked softly, hoping that Andrew would let her in. "It's me, Andrew," she called out. "Can I come in?"There was silence for a while, and Nanny Grace wondered if Andrew had heard her. But then, she heard footsteps approaching the door, and it slowly opened to reveal Andrew's somber expression.Without a word, Andrew stepped aside to let Nanny Grace enter the room, closing the door behind her. The study was dimly lit, the only source of light coming from the desk lamp. Andrew was sitting behind his desk, his hands clasped together, and his eyes downcast."What's wrong, Andrew?" she

Andrew's heart skipped a beat as Nanny Grace's words hit him like a ton of bricks. He had always prided himself on being a man of logic and reason, but he couldn't deny the truth in her words. There was something about Amelia that drew him to her, something that he couldn't quite put into words."I...I don't know what you mean, Nana," Andrew said, his voice barely above a whisper.Nanny Grace smiled knowingly at him. "Oh, I think you do, dear," she said. "You're just afraid to admit it to yourself."He opened his mouth to protest, but Nanny Grace held up her hand. "You don't have to tell me anything, Andrew. Just remember that Miss Catherine is gone, and it's time for you to move on. And as for Amelia, well, perhaps it's time for you to take a closer look at what you really feel for her."Andrew turned to Nanny Grace. He felt a lump form in his throat as he struggled to find the words to explain. "I hit her, Nana," he repeated, his voice barely above a whisper.Nanny Grace's eyes w

Nanny Grace's gentle reminder echoed in Andrew's mind as he stood in front of the locked door. He closed his eyes for a moment, trying to steady himself before knocking again.Andrew stood before the door, his hand poised to knock. He took a deep breath, his chest heaving with remorse. He knew he had hurt her with his words, and he had to make it right. He rapped his knuckles against the wood, hoping for a response."Amelia, it's me," he called out softly, his voice barely above a whisper. "Please, open the door. I need to talk to you."But there was no answer. Andrew waited, his ear pressed against the door, listening for any sound of movement. But all he could hear was the sound of his own breathing, ragged and uneven.He took a deep breath, trying to find the right words to say. He had always been closed off since the death of Catherine, and he found it difficult to show any woman his vulnerable side. But he knew he had to apologize to Amelia.He tried again. "Amelia, I know I was

Amelia didn't respond, didn't even move. Andrew took a deep breath, trying to gather his thoughts. He had never been good with words, especially when it came to matters of the heart."I didn't mean to hurt you," he said finally. "I was just...frustrated. With myself, mostly. I didn't mean to take it out on you."Still, Amelia didn't say anything. Andrew could feel the tension between them, the hurt and the anger and the frustration."I know I messed up," he continued. "And I'm sorry."He waited for her response, his heart beating faster with every passing second. Andrew took a deep breath, trying to summon the courage to speak. He had never been good at this kind of thing. Since Catherine had died, he had kept his emotions bottled up, never letting anyone get close enough to hurt him.But Amelia was different. She had somehow broken down his defenses, and now he was feeling things he had never felt before.He felt a lump form in his throat. He had never been good at apologizing, and

Andrew poured two glasses of scotch from the bottle on his desk, offering one to the detective."I appreciate you coming over, Detective," Andrew said, taking a sip of his drink. "I imagine you were referring to my phone call since three weeks ago, right?"Detective Stone nodded gravely. "Yes, Mr. Reynolds. I have to admit, what you told me had me concerned."He wasted no time in delivering the news. "She's clean, Andrew. Your wife, Miss Amelia, is clean. She had nothing to do with your accident," he said, his tone professional.Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, but then the detective continued. "The only thing we found was her and Henry's past," he said, watching Andrew's reaction closely."It seems your wife had a past with your cousin. Were you thinking they were working together to get rid of you?"Andrew sipped his wine, trying to keep his composure. "I found out about them in my coma," he said, his voice low. Detective Stone raised an eyebrow. "In your coma?" he repeated.Andre

Andrew's heart sank as he sat down next to Amelia. She was still scrolling through her phone, ignoring him completely."Amelia," he said again, his voice barely above a whisper. "Can you at least hear me out?"Amelia didn't respond, her eyes still fixed on her phone. Andrew felt a pang of guilt, knowing that he was at fault.He sat there in silence, unsure of what to do next. He watched as Amelia's fingers moved across the screen of her phone, her face impassive."I know I wasn't a gentleman," he said finally, breaking the silence. "And I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you."Amelia still didn't respond, her eyes still glued to her phone. Andrew sighed, feeling the weight of the silence between them.She stood up, her heart heavy with pain. As she turned to leave, Andrew grabbed her arms, stopping her in her tracks."Amelia, I'm sorry," he said, his voice filled with regret and longing.Amelia could feel the warmth of his touch on her skin, but she refused to give in to it. She pulled

Henry walked into the dining room, sniffing the air curiously. "What's that smell, Nana?" he asked, a grin on his face.Nanny Grace laughed as she placed a plate of pancakes in front of him. "I made breakfast, dear," she said. "You want to eat now?"Henry's eyes lit up as he picked up his fork. "Yes, Nana, I'm starving," he said.As he started eating, he turned to Andrew, who was sitting quietly at the table. "Hey, cousin, what's wrong?" he asked, noticing the tense atmosphere.Andrew stood up abruptly, his expression darkening. "You're still a suspect in my accident, Henry," he said, his voice laced with anger. "Don't forget that."Henry's face fell as he set down his fork. "Andrew, come on," he said. "I've told you a hundred times, I had nothing to do with your accident. I wouldn't do something like that to family."Andrew glared at him. "I hope that's true," he said, before storming out of the room.Henry watched as Andrew stormed out of the dining room and disappeared into his stu
