last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

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 impatiently furrowed his brows. “What else?”“What about my clothes?” Amelia remembered she hadn't taken all of her clothes when she left.The next second, Leo coldly smiled. “Do you think I would keep those things?”Of course not. Amelia laughed at herself. She and Leo had come this far, and he hadn't kicked her out naked, so she couldn't expect him to keep her things.Amelia didn't say anything else and turned to go into the bathroom.When she came out of the shower, she saw that Leo was already asleep on the couch. James had left at some point, and there didn't seem to be any other servants in the villa.For some reason, her heart trembled. She unconsciously walked towards him quietly and saw that he was frowning with one hand pressed against his temple as if he had a headache.She pursed her lips and softened her heart. She placed the towel she had used to dry her hair next to him and sat beside him, massaging his temples.Leo didn't wake up. He was probably drunk, and with th

    Amelia looked at them expressionlessly, the word they had just said echoing in her mind and her face darkened.“It's working hours. You all seem to be very free.”The group immediately trembled and one hurriedly said, “Miss Smith, we were wrong. We'll go back to work.”Amelia watched them scatter before retreating to her office.She leaned against the door, took a deep breath, and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes.After a moment she called Mark. Mark didn't know what was going on yet.Seeing Amelia's sad expression, he frowned and asked, “What's wrong?”Amelia looked up at him.“Tell me honestly where did the money you gave me come from?”Mark sighed helplessly, "You found out?”Amelia sneered.“Not only me, I guess everyone in the company knows now.”Mark wasn't stupid and immediately realized why she was sad.“I'll go and explain it to them.”But Amelia stopped him. “Come back.”She transferred all the money in her account back to Mark and said in a deep voice, “There are so

    Mr Smith's eyes were full of disgust, but he restrained himself from showing it due to his status and etiquette of being the head of the Smith family.He said in a deep voice, “Since things have come to this, just sign it. After signing, post a statement online to declare that you have no more relationship with the Smith family."Listening to their heartless words, Amelia felt like her heart was being twisted by a knife.After more than twenty years even if they only raised a cat or a dog, they should have some feelings, right?Tears poured down her face as she looked at her parent's cold faces. In the end, she knelt on the ground and signed the declaration of severed ties. After signing, she felt like all the strength she had left her body and she collapsed on the ground.Mr Smith said in a deep voice, “Take this woman and throw her out. From now on, she is not allowed to step into the Smith family's door.”“Yes sir.”The servants escorted Amelia out. Her knees hit the stone heavily

    **On the Other Side**After leaving the Smith family, Amelia didn’t rush home but went to a nearby bar instead. When she was upset, she often felt like drinking, but she rarely let herself get drunk. However, today was different. A bond that had existed in her heart for many years suddenly broke, and she couldn’t accept it. So, she drank quickly and heavily and soon got drunk.Mark came to the bar with a friend after work and happened to run into her. Seeing her sitting alone at the bar, drinking and swaying, he became alarmed and hurried over, leaving his friend behind.“Miss Smith, are you okay?” he asked.Amelia, supported by him, turned her head and looked at him, then laughed. “Mark... haha... I remember you... come on, have a drink with me.”Mark took her glass away. “Miss Smith, you’re drunk. You can’t drink anymore. Come down, I’ll take you home.”“Home?” Amelia laughed bitterly. “I don’t have a home anymore.”Her home had shattered six years ago. Her in-laws' home, her paren

    After she finished speaking, she opened the door and got out of the car.Leo felt a surge of blood rush to his head. He was indescribably depressed and unhappy. He suddenly shouted, “Why are you acting so awkward?”Amelia stopped for a moment and stood still.Leo continued, “I heard about George's divestment. Now that there's a financial issue abroad, Wilson's headquarters is simply unable to support you.” “The news on the internet is preventing you from attracting investment in a short period. If this continues, the platform you’ve worked so hard to build is likely to slowly fade under the dual pressure of public opinion and the economy. Is that really what you want?” Amelia stood there in a daze. After a while, she said softly, “What do you want me to say?” “Cooperate with me, I can help you.”Amelia laughed at herself. The more she laughed, the more tears welled up in her eyes.She said softly, “Do you think I would cooperate with a murderer?” Leo was taken aback. “What do y

    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
