For a moment, the silence between them was thick. Amelia’s mind raced to process Leo’s outrageous conditions.

The man who had once forcefully handed her divorce papers was now standing here, asking her to marry him, as though the past had never happened.

Her chest tightened as she remembered the loveless marriage that had lasted three years—her constant efforts to win his affection and make him fall for her.

This yielded nothing but pain, causing her to soak her pillow almost every night.

The memory of what she went through after their divorce came rushing back to her. Her nose flared, and her face flushed red with anger.

She exhaled sharply, glaring at him fiercely and shaking her head. “You think you can come to my house and ask me to marry you after all the pain and suffering you put me through and expect me to say yes?”

She scoffed, though her voice remained steady, inside, she was boiling with anger, urging her to lash out.

"You left me, Leo. You asked for the divor

    She opened her eyes and it dawned on her that she didn’t even know what Blake Hale looked like. She quickly searched the internet, but there was no clear photo of him. All the pictures she saw online were too vague to really determine Blake's appearance. Amelia felt that if Blake was a friend of Leo’s, then she must have seen him before when she was still married to Leo. Leo rarely used the word ‘friend’ to describe someone, but when he did, it meant that the person was very close and dear to him. Memories flooded back—moments when Amelia had felt lost in Leo’s world, social gatherings where she was not recognized as his wife and was merely just a shadow lurking around him. Thinking about the insults she had endured and the embarrassment caused by some of Leo’s friends, who felt she was not up to standard to be his wife, made her chest burn and her brows furrow. She decided to shove the thoughts aside. Determined to find out what Blake looked like to see if he was one of

    A man walked in, and Amelia recognized him instantly—it was Blake Hale. Blake Hale was a famous medical genius. Although young, he had disciples and apprentices all over the world. He had come to see one of his apprentices, but he hadn’t expected to run into Amelia here by chance. Seeing Aunt Elsa lying on the sickbed, her body wasted from chemotherapy and her hair almost gone, Blake immediately understood that she was the person Amelia wanted him to save. Amelia hadn’t expected to see Blake here either. Remembering his attitude earlier on the phone, a line creased on her forehead as her eyes narrowed. “What are you doing here, Mr Hale?” Blake rubbed the back of his neck, feeling embarrassed, "I just happened to pass by and heard you talking, so I came in. Actually—” “Mr. Hale,” Amelia suddenly interrupted him, her voice sharp and eyes narrowed with intensity. "If I remember correctly, you refused my request, saying you were unwilling to help my aunt. Do you think it’s

    Meanwhile, at Sophia Villa, she received a call from her informant at the hospital where Aunt Elsa was staying, informing her of Amelia’s plan to travel to Japan with her aunt. She put down her phone and a wide grin spread across her face, “I’ve been trying to find a chance to get rid of this b*tch, and now that she’s willingly leaving the city, she’s practically handed me the opportunity on a silver platter.” With that thought in mind, she dialed Black Cobra's number. “Amelia will be leaving for Japan tomorrow. This is your last chance to eliminate her. If you fail again this time, your family won’t receive my support anymore, and who knows what will happen to them? Do you understand?” Black Cobra’s cold voice came from the other end of the line. “I understand.” Sophia hung up the phone, with a smirk etched on her face. The next day, Amelia took Aunt Elsa to Japan. Liam and Ella couldn’t go with them, so she entrusted them to Eleven, telling her not to let them out of he

    Was there no one else in the world who could cure Aunt Elsa’s illness besides Blake? Amelia didn’t want to believe it, so she pleaded softly, “Dr. Fletcher, please think of another way. You must save Aunt Elsa. Besides you, there is no one else who can save her.” Dr. Fletcher looked helpless. “There’s no use begging me. If I could save her, why wouldn’t I be willing to help? The situation now is that we want to save her but don’t have the means." "Don't waste your time with me, use that energy to find Blake Hale." “I heard he recently came into the country. This is a good opportunity—if you miss it, it might be impossible to save your loved one.” Hearing his words, Amelia burst into tears. She had tried to find Blake, but the conditions he set were truly impossible for her to meet. Dr. Fletcher, not thinking much of it, left helplessly. As a doctor for so many years, he had seen too many moments of life and death; this was nothing new to him. He shook his head, sig

    Inside the villa, in Leo’s living room, he handed Amelia the contract he’d drafted, along with a pen. After reviewing it, Amelia signed. She gripped the signed contract tightly, her knuckles white as she watched Leo’s reaction. His gaze flickered over the document, a small, victorious smile curving his lips. A pang of anger stirred in her—anger at him, at herself for agreeing to his conditions, and at the situation forcing her hand. Leo looked up, his eyes locking onto hers, dark and unreadable. “I have to admit, Amelia, I didn’t think you’d agree to my conditions. I underestimated you.” She steadied her breath, and said, "This isn’t about you, Leo. It’s about Aunt Elsa—and my children.” “Is it?” He leaned back, crossing his arms as he studied her, as though he could see right through her defenses. "Because I think it’s about more than that. Part of you hates me, I know that. But another part…” He let the words hang, his eyes never leaving hers. Amelia reacted. “Don

    "Eleven, is it true that my mommy is here?” Liam asked, staring at her eye to eye. Ella chimed in, "I really miss my mommy. Can I really see her?” Amelia’s whole body went still, her heart thudding in her chest as a wave of relief washed over her. The next second, her eyes lit up with pure joy. She got up and rushed toward the door. “Liam, Ella!” The villa’s door opened, and Liam and Ella ran toward her, beaming with joy. “Mommy!” they chorused. Amelia crouched down, opened her arms, and hugged them. The children’s excitement nearly knocked her over, but she only laughed, pulling them close. During this time, she’d been busy taking care of Aunt Elsa and hadn’t seen them since she returned from Japan. Ella hugged her neck, her voice filled with affection. “Mommy, I missed you so much. I’m so happy to see you.” Amelia's lips curled up in a smile, and then she cupped the children’s faces and asked with concern, “How did you come here?” Liam's expression turned s

    After speaking, she kissed her on the cheek. Amelia’s heart instantly melted, and her eyes became a little moist. “Mummy loves you too.” After saying this, she hugged Liam, who stood beside her and then kissed each child gently on the cheek. Not far away, Leo watched the tender interaction between Amelia and the children, a thoughtful expression crossing his face as he considered the bond they shared. He didn’t say anything and turned to enter the bedroom. Eleven frowned slightly as she watched this scene. That night, with the children by her side, Amelia slept peacefully. The next morning, she got up early and went to the kitchen to make breakfast for the children. Eleven saw this and quickly said, “Miss Smith, let me do it.” But Amelia smiled. “I’ll do it. I’ve been busy taking care of Aunt Elsa lately and haven’t had much time to care for the children. You’ve done so much, and it’s hard work for you.” “Besides, as a mother, I have to do something for them; o

    Amelia felt a jolt of panic, worried that Aunt Elsa would catch on. She quickly looked away and replied, "There are no conditions. He’s simply mistaken.” After she finished speaking, she shot Blake a glare. Blake scratched the back of his neck, feeling a little embarrassed. He had no choice but to go along. “Uh… it’s nothing. By the way, I’ve already done the inspection. I’ll need to analyze the results before I can say anything. Come with me to get the report in an hour.” Amelia nodded, then saw Blake out. She wanted to follow him, but Aunt Elsa stopped her and asked with a serious tone, “Amelia, tell me the truth. Did you agree to any conditions Leo proposed?” Amelia bit her lip, guilt twisting inside her. Still, she softly replied, “No.” Aunt Elsa’s expression darkened, she wasn't quite convinced. “Amelia, I know better than anyone how much I want to be healed. Every patient hopes for that. But not if it means sacrificing you. I won't have my life bought at that price

    Leo claimed her mouth in a kiss that was rough and filled with longing, devouring her like a hungry wolf that had been starved for days. Amelia matched his intensity, intertwining her fingers in his hair while moaning between the kisses. His hands moved up her body, exploring every inch as if he had been waiting for this moment forever and had finally gotten the opportunity. She gasped when his fingers brushed her nipple, which was already hard and longing to be licked and devoured by his mouth. She could feel the hardness of his desire pressing against her, only intensifying her own need. “You drive me crazy Amelia Smith,” he murmured against her lips. “I miss you and I don’t want to hold back tonight. I want every part of you baby girl.” “Then don’t hold back,” she quickly replied, her voice barely more than a whisper. “I’m all yours, claim me, Daddy.” Her words made his hormones rise even further. Without breaking the kiss, he hurriedly lifted her and carried her t

    The next day, the news spread online that Sophia committed suicide by hanging herself in prison. It felt strange and heavy but for Amelia, it meant a bitter-sweet relief. She woke up with a slight headache, the sunlight streaming through the curtains. Last night memories flooded through her mind—Leo's warm embrace, his apology and reassurance, the soft kiss that stirred long-hidden feelings. Her cheeks warmed and the color turned a shade of pink. She reached out for Leo who was already awake, sitting against the headboard with a look of concern etched on his face. “Morning, beautiful,” he said softly, studying her face for any signs of distress. “Morning,” Amelia replied, blushing and rubbing her temples. “What happened last night? I remember bits and pieces.” That was a lie, she remembered every single detail but just wanted to play innocent. Leo smiled gently. “You had a little too much fun celebrating your aunt's recovery. But it was a good night for us.” Ame

    A month later, Aunt Elsa’s condition had stabilized. The surgical wound had nearly healed, and all that was left was some aftercare. Once home, she could take her medication and recuperate slowly without needing further hospitalization. Early that morning, Amelia went to the hospital to handle Aunt Elsa’s discharge procedures. In the hospital room, Aunt Elsa was sitting on the bed, watching TV. Seeing Amelia come in, Aunt Elsa smiled and said, “You’re just in time. Come and see this.” She pointed to the TV. Curious, Amelia looked over and saw the news playing. A familiar face appeared on the screen, and the host’s flat, detached voice filled the room. “Recently, the sensational murder case has concluded. The primary culprit, Sophia Jones, has been found guilty of her crime." "Due to the severity and serial nature of the case, she has been sentenced to life imprisonment.” Amelia blinked rapidly, her thoughts swirling as she tried to process the news. Life imprisonm

    That night, Aunt Elsa woke up. Blake checked on her and found her condition better than he had expected. Perhaps Amelia’s persistence had truly moved the heavens, as the cancer cells had cleared, and even the memory loss Blake had anticipated wasn’t present. It all seemed too good to be true. When Amelia heard the news, she was naturally overjoyed. Leo also heard about Elsa’s successful surgery. He didn’t say much, but that night, he quietly ordered the kitchen to prepare a few extra dishes, silently celebrating Elsa’s recovery. Amelia had agreed to marry Leo to secure Blake’s help for Aunt Elsa. Now that Aunt Elsa was nearly healed, Amelia realized her relationship with Leo was a temporary fix. She knew she had to find a way to completely cut ties with him. That night, Amelia decided to cook a few dishes herself. To prevent anyone from interrupting her plan, she sent the children out with Eleven for the night. Then, she dismissed the household staff Leo had hired for th

    As Inspector Ralph led Sophia to the police station, her heart raced with a mix of fear and disbelief.Soon, they arrived, and one of the officers led her into the interrogation room and gestured towards a chair, "Miss Jones, please take a seat. Inspector Ralph will be here shortly."With that he left, leaving her all alone in the room. The cold, bare room did nothing to calm her racing heart it only made her heart beat faster with each passing second.The walls were painted a dull gray, and the only light was a flickering fluorescent bulb that buzzed overhead. The smell of cleaning products filled the air, making her even more anxious.She never imagined that one day she would end up in this kind of situation. She stood up to reduce the pacing of her heart and her trembling fingers.Soon, the door opened and Inspector Ralph walked in. Sophia sat down, trying to stay calm and composed. "What kind of nightmare is this?" She thought. "Can I wake up already?" She pinched herself and

    She said in a calm voice, “You didn’t do anything wrong, and I don’t need your apology.” Once, those words had been what she wanted most, but now they meant nothing to her. The bitterness of the past clung to her like a heavy fog. She’d never considered forgiving him, so how could she accept it? After Amelia finished speaking, Leo felt a tightening in his chest. He ran a hand through his hair, frustration coursing through him as he processed the weight of her words. “Don’t say that. We were all kept in the dark before. Now that the truth is out, you know I didn’t do those things on purpose, right?” he said quickly, his voice rising slightly. Amelia sneered. “Yes, you didn’t do it on purpose, but can the pain I suffered over the years be forgotten? Leo, you didn’t personally send someone to kill us, but back then, you did divorce me because of Sophia, didn’t you?” “I can’t hate you, but I can never forgive you. We can’t pretend those years never happened. Neither you nor I c

    The sentence made both Amelia and Leo furrow their brows. They exchanged curious glances, wondering what could prompt Black Cobra to say such a thing. Leo’s gaze hardened as he made a decision. “Pardon the living, punish the dead.” With those words, he signaled his agreement to Black Cobra’s condition. Black Cobra breathed a sigh of relief. At least he had a chance to keep living to protect his family. He knew his death would endanger their lives, and he couldn’t risk it. He then revealed the secret he’d been hiding. “The accident that led to your best friend Damien's death had nothing to do with Amelia. She wasn't the one responsible." The revelation left them both stunned. Relief washed over Amelia. Damien’s death had nothing to do with her; while surprising, Black Cobra’s words intrigued her even more. Still, she was curious to know who had caused the accident that led to Damien's death and why they’d framed her. With questions swirling in her mind, she looked at

    After getting out of the car, James opened the door, and they walked into the building. As soon as they entered, Amelia’s first impression was the smell of blood. The lights turned on, revealing a man lying on the marble floor of the living room, covered in blood. His hair clung together with sweat and blood, and both of his hands hung limply, possibly broken. His legs twisted in an unnatural position, making him look grotesque. Amelia felt as if she had seen him from somewhere. Leo gestured to James, who stepped forward and brushed away the hair covering the man’s face, revealing the person who had kidnapped her before. “How did he end up here?” Amelia asked in disbelief. Leo glanced at her. “What do you think?” It suddenly dawned on Amelia that Leo’s promise of a show tonight referred to this. Her eyes turned cold. She wasn’t a saint and wouldn’t sympathize with someone who had tried to harm her. “Who sent you to kidnap me?” she asked, her voice icy. Black Cobra had

    On the ground, lay a mobile phone from which Sophia's voice echoed. “Have you taken action? This is your last chance Cobra, I won’t allow any more mistakes,” Sophia said sharply. Black Cobra replied coldly, “Don’t worry. This time, either she dies or I perish.” After several failures, Black Cobra’s patience had worn completely thin. Combined with Sophia’s relentless pursuit and threats, he felt trapped with no way out. He knew that failure was not an option this time, the future of his family hung in the balance, and the pressure weighed heavily on him. After speaking, Black Cobra picked up the sniper rifle. He believed that as long as Amelia dared to come out, he could kill her. Even if he was caught afterward, he would not regret it. Sophia listened to the commotion on the other end and breathed a sigh of relief before hanging up the phone. Meanwhile, at Wilson’s Domestic Group, Amelia was about to leave the office when her assistant informed her of Leo’s presence in t
