Shane swallowed hard, his palms still on her abdomen. The warmth of her body reminded him just how close they were right now.He eventually opened his mouth and said in a voice that sounded lower than usual, “Ms. Reid, please lie down. You’ll feel much better after I rub your stomach.”Jessica didn’t let go of his hand. In fact, she tightened her grip over him. She looked up at him indignantly, with a trace of hope and expectancy that she didn’t even realize. “I don’t want you rubbing my stomach anymore. I just want to know this. Am I really just “Ms. Reid” to you?”Silence ensued in the car, leaving just the low hum of the air-conditioner.The look of seriousness in Jessica’s eyes made his heart pound and even his fingertips started turning numb. He knew he shouldn’t be affected, but being in such close proximity to her made him have the urge to lose control over himself for the very first time.He took a deep breath and gently pushed Jessica away.“If you still feel unwell, I

They had read about the patents and projects Amelia mentioned. They simply refused to admit that a graduate from a nameless university could turn out to be more outstanding than them.Other colleagues in the corridor nodded in agreement and shot Amelia looks of approval.After the three men left with their tails between their legs, the HR colleague heaved a sigh of relief. “Ms. Sinclair, that was a great comeback! But perhaps you shouldn’t be so direct next time, lest you offend someone in the academy.”Amelia smiled and said nothing more.-After going through the onboarding process, Amelia was brought to the dean’s office.The dean was an old man with a head full of white hair. His surname was Carter, and he spoke warmly with a tinge of sternness. “Ms. Sinclair, welcome to the academy. I’ve read your resume and seen your rich experience in emergency response UAV. I have a key project which I wish to hand to you to oversee.”The dean switched his computer on and retrieved t

“Mr. Wright, test out existing UAV hardware and see which parts need further improvement.“Mdm. Caldwell, analyze data from urban fires over the past five years and extract key statistics of unique features and rescue difficulties in fires that break out in high-rise buildings.“Let’s do the groundwork well and draw up a preliminary proposal before talking to the others.”The hesitation in the three of their eyes gradually vanished as they looked at Amelia.Landy nodded profusely. “Yes, Ms. Sinclair. I’ll be able to compile the literature by today!”Mr. Wright thumped his chest and said, “Leave the hardware testing to me. I’ll give you a report by tomorrow!”Mdm. Caldwell smiled. “I can get started on the data analysis by this afternoon. I’ll try to give you a preliminary report in three days.”Warmth spread in Amelia’s chest as she looked at the three of them buckle down to work.She knew that there were no shortcuts in winning people over and changing their minds. She could o

Amelia knew that Lincoln and Jayden wouldn’t spare her so easily, but she didn’t expect them to appear in her life again under the guise of such a “collaboration”.She took a deep breath and said to Mr. Carter, “This collaboration…”“I know you have your concerns,” Mr. Carter cut her off and said sincerely, “Navitech’s technology in the area of core components for UAV is very mature. I’m sure the project can progress even faster with their support. The academy has made its assessment. This collaboration is all gain and no pain.”Amelia fell silent for a few seconds.She knew how important this project was, and that it wasn’t easy achieving results in a short period of time relying on the academy’s resources alone. Navitech’s involvement would solve many problems ahead. However, the thought of getting involved with Lincoln and Jayden once again made her scalp go numb.“I’m agreeable to it,” Amelia eventually said with a nod. “But I have one request. We have to be the ones taking

What was Nigel doing here? Did Christopher tell him to come?Nigel spotted Amelia at the same time and hurried over to her, an exquisite pink box in hand. He greeted respectfully, “Good morning, Ms. Sinclair.”Evelyn hid behind Amelia, unable to hide her curiosity. She poked her head out to look at Nigel. “Mom, who is he?”Nigel crouched down low and flashed Evelyn a warm smile. He offered her the box and said, “Hello, Evelyn. I’m Uncle Nigel. This is a gift that Mr. Zephyr specially prepared for you. He wishes you all the best on your first day of school.”“Dad?” Evelyn’s eyes lit up as she looked up at Amelia, doubt filling her eyes. “Mom, did Dad tell him to give me this? Why didn’t Dad come here himself?”Amelia’s heart clenched. She took the box from Nigel and said coldly, “Thanks for coming, Mr. Larkin, but please don’t do this again. I can take care of Evelyn myself.”Nigel stood up, the smile on his face fading, but he insisted anyway. “Ms. Sinclair, Mr. Zephyr knew tha

Amelia suddenly remembered receiving flowers and a birthday cake from nowhere.The sender had wished her a bright and promising future ahead.Now that she thought about it, they must have been from Christopher.Amelia took a deep breath and thought back on the car accident, which she wasn’t sure had anything to do with her. Her brows furrowed as she put the lid back on the box. Just then, her phone rang. Jayden’s name popped up on the screen like a blade piercing through the calm.Amelia hesitated for a few seconds before answering the call anyway. She greeted him coldly, “Hello?” “Mia, are you free now?” Jayden said with deliberate warmth and tenderness. “I heard about Navitech’s collaboration with the Academy of Aerospace. Should we find time to discuss the details?”He went on with a chuckle, “See how fated we are even after you leave Northon?”Amelia tightened her grip over the steering wheel. “Let our assistants liaise with each other regarding the project. I’ll arrange

“The priority for you right now is to take good care of yourself and Evelyn. Don’t get yourself involved in all these.”Amelia nodded before hanging up.She looked at the box once more, a mix of emotions in her heart.She didn’t know what exactly Christopher was doing. She didn’t know why he was shouldering all the burden himself and didn’t know if there would be a day when all the misunderstandings between them would be resolved.-The next morning, Amelia reported to work at the academy on the dot.The moment she entered the office, Landy walked over with a document in hand, saying nervously, “Ms. Sinclair, Mr. Zephyr from Navitech is here. He’s waiting for you in the meeting room, saying he wants to discuss collaboration resources with you.”Amelia’s hand froze on her mouse as she said with a frown, “Jayden Zephyr? What is he doing here? I thought I told him to send his assistant for liaison?”“He said this was very important and he had to talk to you about it in person. He

With that, Amelia stood up, picked up the document on the table and turned to leave.When the meeting room door shut, blocking out the rage on Jayden’s face, Amelia heaved a sigh of relief. Yet, when she turned around, she saw Mr. Carter at the other end of the corridor.Mr. Carter had a glass of tea in hand and he waved at her when he saw her. “Ms. Sinclair, come to my office for a while?”Amelia’s heart fell as she followed him into his office.Mr. Carter poured her a glass of warm water before saying, “I heard something from outside the meeting room. Jayden Zephyr isn’t making things difficult for you, is he?”Amelia shook her head, her fingers tightening over the glass though she said nothing.She knew what the dean was going to ask her.Things between her and Christopher were no secret in the scientific research circle in Northon. It wasn’t strange that Mr. Carter had heard about it.As she had expected, Mr. Carter sighed and looked out the window. “I’ve heard about thin

Chapter 849

Amelia’s heart ached and her mood was exceptionally gloomy after leaving the dean’s office.Mr. Carter’s words rang in her ears.Mr. Guthrie’s accident, being forced into a marriage alliance, giving up on his scientific research career… All these were fragments of Christopher’s past that she never understood.It shone new light on the cold indifference he had shown to Evelyn.She thought about how she had a high fever in the middle of the night not long after they got married. When she woke up the next day, she found some fever medication and warm water on the bedside table, which Christopher told her that the nanny had prepared when she asked about it.After Evelyn was born, Christopher hardly carried her, but he had quietly wrapped the corners of all the furniture with protective covers.No wonder he suddenly showed such cold indifference toward them.Amelia shut her eyes as the gears shifted in her mind.She thought back on when he became so cold and distant. What exactly ha

Christopher recalled how Jessica said that Amelia did not call him.He deliberately changed his number and switched his social media profile to private to cut off all ties with her.Yet sometimes, he couldn’t control himself. He always had the urge to see her and hug her. His affection for her continued to burn in his heart.Yet, he could only suppress them and keep them hidden.“Keep a close watch on Jayden and don’t let him cause Amelia trouble,” Christopher said to Nigel. “Have you found anything regarding the car accident?”The mention of the car accident made Nigel’s face darken. “I have. The car that hit you had a fake license plate and information on the car owner was falsified. The driver is a foreigner and he left the country the day after the car accident. He’s now back in Mediva, his home country.”“Mediva? What a coincidence,” Christopher scoffed.Jayden pursued further studies in Mediva and stayed there for five years. He clearly had his connections there.“Jayden
