Chapter 20 -The Wrong Person“The accident wasn’t supposed to happen.”Amelia’s fingers tightened around the old newspaper as A cool breeze swept across the lake, rustling the trees, but neither she nor Ethan seemed to notice.Her voice came out barely above a whisper.“What do you mean… Olivia wasn’t supposed to be in the car?”Ethan’s eyes remained fixed on the water for a long moment but he said nothing before he then sighed like an old man.“She wasn’t the one we were supposed to pick up that night.”Amelia’s heartbeat quickened.“We?”Ethan nodded once as he eyed the plaque again almost lovingly.“Alexander, Sophia, Olivia… and me.”Now she understood it was The four people from the photograph.They had all been together when it had happened.“So whose car was it?” Amelia asked.Ethan looked at her like he knew the answer was going to do wicked to things to her but he responded nonetheless.“It belonged to Alexander.”She froze that moment. It had been Alexander’s car they were al

Chapter 22 — The Ring He Never Took BackThe phone hit the marble floor with a sharp crack and no one dared moved or spoke.Sophia stood frozen in her spot as her face drained of every trace of confidence.Alexander’s grip remained firm around her wrist.“What did he mean by that Sophia?” Alexander demanded.Sophia looked away instantly with enough debate etched all over her face.“I don’t know.”“Look at me.”Slowly, she met his eyes.For the first time since Amelia had seen them together…Neither of them looked angry instead They looked exhausted as if they had been fighting the same battle for six years. If she didn’t know better she would have grouped them as divorced couples who didn’t know how to let go of each other.“I said let me go.”Alexander’s jaw tightened as that seemed to aggravate him more.“You disappear for six years.”His voice was dangerously calm and that in intself was an indication that things could south any moment from there.“And then You return without warning

“I think you’re afraid I’ll hate you when I learn it.”For the first time…Alexander had no response or comeback for that as he simply stared at her.And the silence between them said far more than words ever could.Amelia stood alone, staring at the closed door.For the first time, she wondered if he had been warning her…Or protecting her.She couldn’t decide which frightened her more.The next morning…The Sterling estate buzzed with unusual activity as Luxury cars pulled into the driveway one after another.Servants hurried through the halls carrying flower arrangements and silver trays into the awaiting vehicles outside.The usual sterling mansion Fresh roses were being replaced as they decorated every corner of the mansion.Amelia frowned.She stopped a passing maid.“What’s happening?”“The Sterling Charity Board is meeting holding today at the headquarters, Mrs. Sterling.”Yeah Right.Vanessa had mentioned it previously and she wondered how that had managed to skip her mind as she

The morning sun filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Sterling mansion and For the first time since the wedding, the house felt… normal.There were No hovering reporters, dramatic phone calls and No unexpected appearances from Sophia.Just pure unadulterated silence. With this Amelia jerked awake as she remembered how the previous day rolled out. Sophia was still being on the look out and whats with everyone breathing down in her case, she knew she would still be apprehended again by the Sterling family.Amelia stood on the balcony outside her room, breathing in the cool morning air before finally heading downstairs. The dining room was already prepared with Fresh fruit,Coffee and Warm pastries.She had barely taken her seat when Eleanor Sterling entered.As always, she looked impeccably dressed, her posture graceful and commanding.The servants immediately bowed.“Madam.”Eleanor acknowledged them before taking her seat across from Amelia.For a few moments, only the sou

Chapter 28 — Lessons in PowerThe next morning, Amelia arrived at the Sterling Foundation fifteen minutes early.She wasn’t trying to impress anyone but She simply didn’t want to give anyone another reason to say she didn’t belong.As she stepped into Eleanor Sterling’s office, she found the older woman already seated behind her desk, reading through a thick stack of reports.Without looking up, Eleanor spoke.“You’re punctual.”“Well I didn’t want to be late.”“That’s Good.Puctuality is respect.”Eleanor closed the folder in front of her as Amelia gave a small nod and took her seat.A moment later, the office door opened and An assistant entered carrying another stack of files.“Madam, these are the proposals requiring final approval.”She placed them neatly on Eleanor’s desk before leaving.Eleanor looked at Amelia.“Today, you’ll do more than observe. Review this.”She slid the top file across the desk towards Amelia before she opened it.It was a proposal from a private education t
