"Liam, you don't intend to give up on that woman, but what about the shares in the hands of that bastard? If your father gives his shares to that bastard, then the Prescott Group ..." Ember looked worried, still not approving of Liam's actions. She continued, "In my opinion, she's just a woman. If he wants her, what's the harm in giving her to him!" Liam firmly shook his head. "I won't give up on her. Mom, finding a woman who could disregard herself and risk her life for me isn't easy."Ember had wanted to persuade him further. But then, she thought of the time Amelia had gotten hurt protecting Liam back in Lily's restaurant. Then, she thought about the time Liam got injured on set while saving Amelia. Ember started to come to an understanding. She said, "Before, I was worried that you always followed behind your brother and that Lancaster girl. I always wondered when you would come to your senses and fall for a girl. Now that you understand, I ..." Liam approached her and g
The filming went smoothly, and now, it was nearly complete. Amelia filmed every day, and the schedule was tight. During the night shoots, she couldn't go to work with Liam, which made Liam feel frustrated for a while. So Amelia changed to have John pick her up every day. Looking at the car left in the corner of the garage, Amelia smiled helplessly. After taking a shower, Amelia went downstairs. She then uncovered the pot lid in the kitchen, revealing the breakfast Liam had prepared. As she was eating, there was a sudden knock on the door. Amelia was puzzled. After all, not many people knew they lived here. Looking through the peephole, she saw a disheveled person outside. Amelia couldn't help but frown.Initially, she didn't want to open the door, but the person seemed persistent and knocked continuously. When there was no response, he even started calling Amelia's name. However, the noise might disturb the neighbors if he went on. So Amelia could only reluctantly op
"Huh, is it my fault you guys can't continue living in the village? Is it my fault that you're being chased for your debts?" Amelia sneered, showing no sympathy for their predicament. Christopher was momentarily stunned; this was not what he had expected! He said, "No, but you're my cousin! How can you just stand by and do nothing?" "We were no longer family the moment you mistreated Grandpa and Grandma. Not to mention, I had nothing to do with you once I left the Jenson family. This was our agreement when I returned to take Grandpa and Grandma away. Didn't your parents tell you?" Amelia replied. They certainly did tell him. Although Christopher was annoyed at his parents for prioritizing immediate gains over long-term benefits, they were determined and had already decided. He wasn't pleased with Amelia's actions, but he let it be. Who would have thought that so much would happen later on?"But we still share the same blood! After all these years of being family, can't you
Amelia felt helpless watching Christopher's pathetic appearance. "Where's your mom? She came to me for money not long ago." Amelia said. A necklace in exchange for a 100 thousand dollars. Sarah had made a good deal. Unexpectedly, Christopher was furious. His eyes were resentful as he explained, "She took the money and ran away, even taking all the money home. I wouldn't have come to you if I weren't truly desperate!" Amelia looked at Christopher in astonishment. She had not considered that he might be deceiving her, given the sincerity in his expression. "My dad ... his leg got broken. I don't have the money to treat him. I went to the neighbors to borrow money, but they ..." Christopher's eyes turned red as he spoke. He then knelt on the ground, crying. Listening to his words, Amelia also felt uneasy. "Where is your dad now?" she asked."At the hospital. The hospital has been asking for payment these days, and I have no choice. Amelia, consider it a favor for the sake
Amelia was stunned and exclaimed, "I didn't mean that!" Liam laughed, then he immediately turned serious and said, "Lia, if you trust me, let me handle this matter for you!" Amelia hesitated, but Liam continued, "I'll take care of this. You and your grandparents don't need to worry about them. And I want to take this opportunity to resolve this matter thoroughly. Otherwise, knowing David, he'll still exploit you in the future whenever he has any problems if you help him this time." After thinking for a moment, Amelia nodded. "Okay." Amelia didn't know how Liam resolved the matter, but in the next half month, Christopher didn't come to see her again. Her grandparents also seemed to be unaware of what happened at home. She only knew about David and Christopher from Liam—David had been discharged from the hospital and had returned to Bryxton. As for the house, Liam had taken it back, but the property deed was in Amelia's hands. Looking at the property deed with her name in her
"Hannie, I'm sorry, it's all my fault! Please wake up!" That voice sobbing sounded so familiar it made Amelia's heart tremble. Amelia should have guessed it when she saw Gio, especially since it was working hours and concerned Hannah. If Gio was here, Liam naturally had a connection to the situation. Standing at the door of the ward, Amelia saw Liam by the bedside. He was holding Hannah's hand with a regretful and sorrowful expression. Amelia felt a pang in her heart. "Amelia, you're here!" Karen said. Hearing Karen's voice, Amelia glanced at her with mixed emotions. At this moment, Amelia began to understand the purpose of Karen calling her over. However, she still felt sad. She genuinely liked Karen. Amelia didn't know if the man by the hospital bed was too worried about the woman on the bed, or he simply didn't hear Karen's words. But either way, he did not release Hannah's hand nor glance in their direction. Amelia wanted to say something, but she realized that
Karen continued, "At first, I was against it too. I didn't want her to be so close to Liam. It's just that Hannie's too infatuated with him. Her heart is filled with him. She doesn't listen to my advice at all. "After what happened, keeping her at home every day was useless. It only stimulated her dependence on Liam even more. You have no idea! My heart shattered when I pushed open the door and saw her lying on the ground, covered in blood. "At that moment, I was thinking, even if I had to die myself, I just hope she could live well!"A child is every parent's flesh and blood. No matter what mistakes she made, I carried her for ten months and gave birth to her. How can I watch someone harm her? How can I watch her abuse herself?" Amelia remained silent and quietly listened to Karen pour her heart out. However, Amelia felt uncomfortable and her mind was in a state of confusion. Karen spoke gently, but she didn't lower her voice. Despite this, nothing seemed to happen in the hos
"Ms. Jenson, don't be upset. Liam treats you differently. He's just worried about Ms. Lancaster, that's why he's acting like this. Once she gets better, everything will be fine." Lucas drove along the way and couldn't help speaking up for Liam when he saw Amelia's unhappy face. He recalled the video conference that day and remembered how gentle Liam was toward Amelia. That was a different Liam, and Lucas believed Amelia was important to him. But Amelia didn't respond. Either she didn't hear what he said or didn't want to talk. Lucas couldn't read her mind, so he tried to find topics to break the awkward silence. "Ms. Jenson, I've watched your movies. You're pretty good ..." he said."Thank you! But you don't have to say that. I'm fine. I'm just thinking," Amelia replied and forced a smile. She knew Lucas was doing it for her good, but complimenting her acting wasn't exactly fitting. After turning a corner, Amelia suddenly said, "Can you take me to Lily's place?" Lucas was
