Leo had been watching Sophia's reaction all along seeing that she was genuinely surprised by Amelia's survival, he completely dispelled his doubts and nodded.

“Not only is she alive, she is also doing very well.”

Thinking of that heartless and ungrateful woman, Leo felt a lump in his chest. It was like being punched hard by something making him feel inexplicably suffocated and uncomfortable.

Sophia's nails were embedded in her palms.

“Your words remind me of a few days ago when the vice president of Wilson's Group came to our company to find me. At that time I thought she looked a lot like Amelia but the whole thing was too unbelievable so I didn't tell you.”

Sophia understood that since Leo had already met Amelia, it was impossible to hide the fact that she had come to the company.

Therefore it was better to speak up before he finds out.

Leo frowned, “She came to find you?”

“Yes, I wasn't sure it was her at the time. After all, she looks so different from six years ago. But she told

    The two of them were intimate, hidden behind the artificial mountain without a care in the world.Amelia glared at Leo, feeling it was all his fault. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have had to hide here, and this awkward situation wouldn't have arisen.Due to the limited space, the artificial mountain was tall enough to completely block people’s view, but it wasn't very wide. The short stones in front and behind them made it impossible for them to move even a little bit without being discovered.Leo looked at Amelia. Although it was late spring, the temperature was unusually high. Whether it was because of the heat or her nerves, Amelia's face was flushed, and sweat dripped from her forehead and temples.Leo didn't find it unappealing; instead, he found a certain charm in her appearance. He couldn't help but swallow, feeling his heart in turmoil.Suddenly, a moan came from outside. "Oh, baby."Both of them froze. Amelia's face turned red, and Leo's breathing became heavier.Amel

    James became interested in the topic and sat down to analyze it."Well, you see, there are two types of people in the situation you described.""The first type is those who would feel something. These people have poor self-control and can feel attracted to someone as long as the environment and the person are right.""The second type is those who, no matter the environment, won't feel anything if the person isn't right for them.""These people are more loyal and usually only love one person. Once they fall in love, it's hard for them to fall out of it. That's what young girls nowadays call a ‘loyal dog,’" James explained.Leo frowned, clearly disgusted by the term "loyal dog."James smiled and asked, "Which type are you, young master?"Without thinking twice, Leo chose the first option. Although it sounded a bit sleazy, it was better than being called a dog.Unexpectedly, James continued, "But there are also nuances to this first type."Leo frowned and asked, "What nuances?""These pe

    Upon seeing the situation, Sophia quickly stepped forward to mediate."Leo, don't blame Amelia. She's not targeting you, she's just angry with me."The more Sophia spoke, the more it seemed like Amelia was deliberately opposing him.As expected, Leo's expression became even more unpleasant.However, Amelia couldn't be bothered to deal with him and smiled at George, saying, "Mr. George, if you're interested in our platform, why don't we go to the restaurant on the second floor and discuss it further?"George nodded. "Sure, I'm very interested in your platform. If Miss Smith doesn't mind, would you please lead the way?""I'd be honored," Amelia replied.After more than an hour of detailed discussion, Amelia finally secured George's investment.She walked out of the private room feeling happy. However, as soon as she stepped out, she saw Leo standing there.The corridor was dimly lit, and Leo's hands were in his pockets. He stood tall and straight, exuding an air of nobility.Amelia put

    Leo stiffened at Sophia's words.She continued, “Auntie has been urging us all along, and I also want a home of my own soon. Since my brother passed away, I have nothing left except for you. Sometimes, I'm even afraid that you might leave me one day.”Hearing Damien's name, Leo's face softened slightly. He replied, “I'll consider it.”Sophia pouted in dissatisfaction. “I don’t want you to consider it. Every time you say you’ll consider it, there’s no follow-up. I want you to promise me now—will you marry me or not?”Leo’s face darkened. He looked at Sophia, and Amelia’s face suddenly popped into his mind, irritating him.“Let’s talk about it later. It’s not a good time now,” he said, getting up to leave.Sophia shouted, “Why are you always like this? Every time I bring up this topic, you either say ‘Let’s talk about it later’ or ‘Let’s see in a while.’""How long do you expect me to wait? Do you want me to wait until I’m old or until I die before you’ll marry me?”Leo stopped in his

    The Smith family members were all tense.“Sister Sophia!” Iris exclaimed in surprise.She rushed forward and took Sophia's arm. “Sister Sophia, what brings you here?”Amelia had introduced Sophia to the Smith family, so she was familiar with everyone.“I was passing by your house today and decided to drop in,” Sophia replied with a smile.She paused and looked at John and Olivia in the living room. “I hope you don't mind my unexpected visit?”To say that they didn't mind would be a lie. After all, in their eyes, Sophia was Amelia's good friend. Amelia had caused the death of their son, and they weren't exactly welcoming to this good friend.But as people with status and reputation, John didn't want to worsen their relationship, so he casually raised his hand.“Of course not, Miss Jones, please have a seat.”Sophia graciously sat down on the sofa.“May I ask if there is anything you need, Miss Jones?” John asked.Sophia smiled. “To be honest, I came because I saw some photos online.”

    Five minutes later, the company door was pushed open with a loud bang, and the Smith family rushed in with an imposing manner.“Where is Amelia? Where is she? Let her come out and see me.”The employees were all frightened, and some of them instinctively wanted to step forward to stop them.“Please wait, this is a public area…”“Get out of the way!”Without hesitation, Iris pushed the employee aside.Mrs. Smith's face was gloomy as she said, “Tell your boss to come out and see me. Say that her foster mother wants to see her.”As soon as she finished speaking, a voice came from the high-level office.“What’s going on?”Amelia walked out.The employees looked at her with embarrassment. “Boss, these people suddenly barged in and said they wanted to see you. I think they are very emotional, so…”Amelia didn't listen to the rest of what they said. She stood there blankly, looking at the people in front of her, her face full of disbelief.The Smith family was also incredulous.Although Soph

    Amelia looked up, her eyes filled with sadness. “Mr. Mark.” Mark quickly crouched down and held her hands.Amelia noticed that his hair was messy, his tie was crooked, and there were a few bloodstains on his face and neck. She burst into tears even harder.“I’m sorry I’ve caused trouble for you.”Mark had never encountered such a situation before and was at a loss.“It’s not your fault. Don’t cry. I don’t know what to do if you cry like this.”He was so flustered that he didn’t know how to react. After a moment, he remembered to grab some tissues from the table.Amelia took the tissues and wiped away her tears. She forced a smile and said, “Are you curious about what happened?”Mark nodded.He was indeed very curious.His intuition told him that Amelia had many secrets.Like a thick fog that couldn’t be cleared, it was impossible to see through, and like a challenging puzzle, it constantly tempted people to try to solve it.However, Amelia shook her head.“I’m sorry, but I can’t t

    Just then, a beam of headlights suddenly lit up ahead.Leo had just finished a social engagement and was preparing to go home when he saw Amelia standing by the side of the road.Her clothes were torn, her hair a mess, and she was holding a black plastic bag, looking extremely disheveled.James exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Madam Amelia?"Leo frowned and had James pull over to the side of the road.Amelia had noticed the headlights earlier, but she hadn't expected them to stop. She had originally wanted to ask for help, but upon seeing them, she immediately closed her mouth and turned her face away coldly.James didn't notice her attitude and eagerly asked, "Madam Amelia, why are you here alone? Can we give you a ride?"Amelia replied coldly, "No need."James was taken aback, and a cold voice came from behind him."She said she doesn't need it. Why are you still asking? Let's go."James felt a bit confused. "But didn't you ask me to ask her, young master? Why are you angry now?"

    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
