"You're still in the mood to organize a party? I'm surprised to see you being so carefree," Amelia exclaimed in feigned surprise before putting on a worried expression."I heard your father's illegitimate son just landed another massive business deal for the company. A lot of people have been comparing the two of you behind your back, and they've been saying some pretty nasty things. Want me to repeat them for you?"Amelia didn't give Howie any chance to refuse. She cleared her throat and warmed up her voice.Then her expression turned cold and mocking as she said contemptuously, "Howie is a good-for-nothing who's only capable of wasting his life away on frivolous things. He's a complete loser who has no accomplishments to speak of."He can't even hold a candle to his father's illegitimate son. If one didn't know better, one would think he's the illegitimate son instead."As soon as she finished saying that, she put on a concerned expression once more, her gaze guileless. "Now, no

Simon meant that, since Amelia had already made a scene at the airport, she might as well bring up the divorce outright. Doing so wouldn't affect their ongoing plan of collecting evidence of Jason's affair.Jason probably wouldn't suspect anything anyway. He would only assume Amelia was being jealous. As it was, that was precisely what he thought.After the discussion with Simon, Amelia drove to Chapman Manor. On the way back, she saw Jason's car, much to her surprise. She had assumed he would be staying with Maria and wouldn't have time to return to Chapman Manor.If not for the incident at the airport, Jason had in fact been planning to stay with Maria. However, when Ryan called earlier to ask when he'd be back, Ryan mentioned that Amelia was already on the way to Chapman Manor.Jason was worried that once Amelia got back to the house, she would reveal Maria's return to the Chapmans, thereby messing up his plans.The wedding ceremony that was set to take place in three months ha

Wyatt couldn't believe that Amelia was being this ungrateful. His expression darkened, and he scolded her bluntly, "Madam Amelia, I never expected you to be so narrow-minded, selfish, short-sighted, and completely lacking in perspective. You spare no thought for Mr. Ryan's future at all! It's no wonder the family doesn't like you."Do you know how fortunate Mr. Ryan is to be living in Chapman Manor and having Mr. Chapman Senior personally mentoring him? He might even be inheriting the entire family fortune in the future.""I told you to shut up." Amelia stared at him expressionlessly. "As expected, someone who can't understand human speech can't say anything decent either."Wyatt stared at her in disbelief. "Are you implying that I'm an animal?"Wyatt was Elmer's subordinate. He had worked with Elmer for decades, and ordinarily, even Jason would show him some respect. Elmer himself had said that Wyatt was practically a member of the family, yet Amelia actually dared to humiliate hi

The moment Jason thought of those two police officers, his anger spiked. He felt like a clown who had been kept completely in the dark."Why did you call the police?" he demanded.There was no way to keep the police report secret. The Chapmans had already called Jason about it, and Elmer had been summoned to the police station for questioning.Amelia sneered. "My son was beaten that badly by your grandfather. Why do you think I called the police?""Grandpa didn't do it on purpose. He just has high expectations for Ryan. Besides, people from his generation were all brought up like this. They believe that you have to suffer through hardship to rise above others. How could you call the police just like that? Why didn't you talk to me first?" he questioned."Why didn't I talk to you first? Ask her." Amelia gave Maria a meaningful look.Maria calmly explained, "Jason, your clothes got dirty, so you went to take a shower, remember? Amelia called then, and I answered the phone for you.

Jason immediately panicked. Without another thought, he bent down, scooped Maria into his arms, and hurried out.When he passed Amelia, he didn't even glance at her. He even knocked into her again when he opened the door.Amelia had already injured her lower back, and this time, she was knocked straight to the floor. The new impact worsened her injury, and the pain was so intense that she didn't even dare breathe too deeply.That fucking Jason!Amelia pounded the floor with both hands, cursing the bastard viciously in her mind.The fire door to the stairwell swung open, then shut.Jason, carrying Maria, suddenly stopped in his tracks and unexpectedly found himself looking straight into Ryan's eyes.Ryan had insisted on coming out to find Amelia. He had heard Amelia and Jason arguing outside his room just now and was worried about her.Tiana couldn't talk him out of it, so she gave in out of consideration for his love for his mother. It was a chance for him to see his scumbag fa
