Amelia's heart was pounding as she stood in front of Andrew, the accusations flying back and forth between them. "But I didn't sleep with him," she insisted, her voice shaking slightly."Why didn't you tell me he was your boyfriend?" Andrew shot back, his voice sharp with anger."Why didn't you tell me Lila was your girlfriend?" Amelia retorted, her voice rising.Andrew laughed, a bitter sound that sent shivers down Amelia's spine. "So this is how it is. You slept with Henry to get back at me.""Nooo..." Amelia protested, her eyes filling with tears. "You're accusing me of something you do. I caught you sleeping with Lila, and you didn't have the guts to even apologize for it.""Why should I?" Andrew asked coldly.Amelia's heart sank. She had hoped that Andrew would at least feel remorse for his infidelity, but it seemed he was only interested in deflecting blame onto her. "I'm not like you," she said quietly. "I didn't sleep with Henry.""You're not having that child," Andrew said, h
Andrew's laughter echoed through the hall once again as he stepped back, his eyes glinting with anger. "If you move an inch out of this mansion," he said, his voice low and menacing, "your father is going to rot in jail."Amelia's eyes widened in fear as she realized the full extent of his power. Tears streamed down her face as she looked up at Andrew, desperation in her voice. "You're not going to do this, Andrew," she said, her voice shaking.Andrew's eyes flickered with a cold rage as he stepped closer to her. "You think I'm doing this out of charity?" he spat. "If you leave, I'm pulling my investment from your father's dying company. And when he can't pay his investors, he'll go to jail."Amelia's heart sank as she realized the full extent of Andrew's power over her and her family. "So what do you want me to do, Andrew?" she asked, her voice shaking. "What exactly do you want from me?""So what do you want me to do, Andrew?" she asked, her voice shaking slightly. "What exactly d
Andrew's thoughts were interrupted by the sudden intrusion of Tony. He looked up and saw Tony standing in front of him, looking slightly flustered."What is it, Tony?" Andrew asked, his tone cold."Mr. Finn is around, boss," Tony said, his tone apologetic.Andrew sighed, feeling a twinge of irritation at the interruption. "Next time, knock first, Tony," he chided gently."Sorry, boss," Tony replied, his eyes darting nervously around the room. "I'll make sure to do that next time."Andrew nodded, his mind already moving on to the next issue at hand. "Have you seen Henry? Is he back?" he asked, his tone clipped."Not yet, boss," Tony answered, his gaze steady. "But my eyes are on him. As soon as I spot him, I'll let you know."Andrew nodded again, his expression serious. "Good. In the meantime, tell Finn to come in here. I need to speak with him."Tony nodded, his eyes flashing with understanding. "Right away, boss," he said before quickly exiting the room.Andrew nodded and watched as
Amelia sat in silence, ignoring Andrew's presence as he stood before her. Her mind was clouded with thoughts and emotions that she couldn't quite put into words."Do you know where Henry is?" Andrew repeated, his voice taut with frustration.Amelia still said nothing, her silence cutting through the air like a knife. Andrew clenched his jaw, his patience wearing thin."I'm asking you a question," he said, his tone firm.Finally, she looked up at him, her expression unreadable. "How would I know?" she replied, her voice low and controlled. "Since that's all you care about."Andrew's heart sank at her words. He took a step closer to her. "The door is open," he said, his voice softening.Amelia's eyes flickered with something that might have been contempt. "You can lock it if you want to," she said coolly. "But all I know is I'm having this child, whether you accept it or not."Andrew's face hardened. "I've made my decision on this," he said firmly. "And it's final."Amelia moved her fac
Nanny Grace stood there in shock as Andrew's words hit her like a ton of bricks. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Testify? You...you want me to testify against Alexander? Your brother?" she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper."Yes," Andrew replied, his voice firm and unwavering. Nanny Grace could see the desperation etched into his face, but she couldn't bring herself to comply with his request."I can't do it, dear," Nanny Grace said, her voice filled with emotion. "He's your brother, Andrew. He's like a son to me. I can't betray your parents. I cannot betray the Reynolds.""Betray?" Andrew spat, his voice rising with anger. "Are you for real, Nana? You're talking about betrayal? So, I'm the only one who deserves to be betrayed, right? I'm the only one who deserves to be cheated, right? Alexander wants to claim Catherine's shares, and if he does, he'll have an upper hand at my company, and you're telling me about betrayal?"Nanny Grace took a deep breath, trying
Andrew looked at her squarely. "I didn't get Amelia pregnant," he said firmly. "Henry did. As usual, another betrayal."Nanny Grace stood firm, her expression resolute as Andrew spoke to her. "Till you're sure the child is for Henry, I'm with Amelia," she said firmly.Andrew let out a deep sigh. "Think about what I said, Nana. I really need you to testify in court," he said, his voice pleading.Nanny Grace shook her head. "I've given you my answer already. What exactly do you even want me to testify against?" she asked.Andrew took a deep breath before answering. "That you saw Alexander sleeping with Catherine," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.Nanny Grace's eyes widened in shock. "That's huge, Andrew. I really can't do this, dear," she said, her voice laced with concern.Andrew looked at Nanny Grace with desperation in his eyes. "Think about it, Nana. It's up to you to do what is right, at least for once," he said.Nanny Grace stood her ground as Andrew pleaded with her to
Nanny Grace's heart skipped a beat as Amelia's words sank in. She stammered, unsure of what to say."M-may... maybe he didn't mean it," she said, her voice shaking slightly. "I'm sure he didn't mean it."But Amelia's response was resolute. "He was serious, Nana," she said, her voice firm. "He repeated it several times."Nanny Grace felt a knot forming in her stomach. She couldn't believe that Andrew would ask Amelia to do something so terrible. But at the same time, she knew that she had to consider all possibilities."No, no, I don't think so, dear," she said, trying to calm Amelia's fears. "But... but, don't feel offended, dear, I just want to ask a question."Amelia's eyes widened in surprise. "What is it?" she asked, her voice trembling.Nanny Grace hesitated for a moment before continuing. "Are you sure the child is for Andrew?" she asked gently.Amelia's face fell, and her eyes filled with hurt. "Even you?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "You too, Nana?"She said,
Andrew's eyes narrowed as he spoke again. "So tell me, what about the kiss? I'm waiting."Amelia stammered out a response, "It...it... was a mistake."Andrew laughed incredulously. "A mistake? That your ex-boyfriend walked into my room while you were almost naked and he kissed you? You expect me to believe it was a mistake?"Amelia's face fell as Andrew's words sunk in. "This just proves that the child in your belly isn't mine, and I'm not going to accept it," Andrew said coldly.Amelia's voice was firm as she looked at Andrew. "Whether you accept it or not, I'm having my child," she said.Andrew's face twisted in anger. "And besides, you're not a saint either, Andrew. I only had a kiss with Henry while you, on the other hand, were flirting and being intimate with Lila," Amelia continued.Andrew's eyes narrowed as he spoke, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "And how is that a problem? So you've finally admitted to having an affair with Henry," he said.Amelia's voice rose in frustrat
Amelia stood there, tears of joy streaming down her face, listening to Andrew's words of love and reminiscences of their past. Andrew said, "the first time I asked you to be my wife, it was arranged, you never wanted to. You agreed because you had no choice. I only granted you the divorce because I wanted to start afresh with you."She couldn't help but laugh at his playful remark about the first proposal. "Or you had no choice either," she jokingly replied, sharing a lighthearted moment with him.With a smile, Andrew continued, expressing his true feelings, "Now I'm asking you again, out of your will. Amelia Tate, can you do me the honors of becoming my wife?" Overwhelmed with happiness, Amelia screamed, "Yes, yes, yes!!!" The excitement spread through everyone present as they joined in the joyous moment.In a rush of emotions, Amelia ran to hug Andrew, and amidst the laughter, Perry playfully yelled, "Collect the ring first!" The laughter continued as Andrew gently slipped the
With a heart full of happiness and anticipation, Andrew walked down the stairs of his home, feeling a world of difference from the past few months. Everything was now beautiful and filled with joy and love. Today was a special day as he was going to pick up Amelia from the hospital after her remarkable recovery from the coma.Tony approached him to inform him that the car was ready. He said, "The car is ready, boss."But Andrew declined, wanting to savor every moment of the day. "Nah... I'll drive myself," he replied with a smile.Tony said, "are you sure boss?""Nah… I'm fine, hand me the keys." Andrew said as he stretched his hands towards Tony to collect his keys.Tony walked towards him and handed him the keys to the Rolls Royce Phantom, and Andrew hopped in, ready to go pick up his beloved Amelia.The drive to the hospital was filled with excitement and eagerness. Andrew couldn't wait to see Amelia's reaction to the grand surprise he had prepared for her at home. As he arrived
The doctor stammered, realizing the gravity of his poorly phrased suggestion. "No... no, that's not what I meant," he attempted to clarify.Andrew stepped closer to the doctor, his eyes piercing through him. "Are you going to tell me how to spend my money?" he demanded.The doctor quickly backtracked, "No sir, it was just a suggestion from a professional."But Andrew was not swayed. He fiercely responded, "Keep your profession to yourself! We're not taking her off any life support! We're not depriving her of her rights to fight! Understood?"The doctor nodded, humbled by Andrew's words, "Yes, sir."Andrew left his office and slammed the door behind him.Leaving the doctor's office, Andrew returned to Amelia's room, his emotions still raw. Mrs. Tate noticed his changed mood and approached him, concerned. "How is Amelia? What did the doctor say?"Andrew took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. "It's nothing serious," he reassured Mrs. Tate, not wanting to worry her further.But M
Andrew carefully came down the stairs, holding Violet in his arms. His daughter had grown bigger, and she now had curly brown hair, which bounced with each moment, a beautiful resemblance to her mother, Amelia. Nanny Grace approached them, holding Violet's little bag and other items Amelia used to cherish."Thanks, Nana," Andrew said with genuine gratitude. "What about Amelia's hairbrush and perfumes?"Nanny Grace smiled warmly. "I've packed them inside, just as you requested.""Thanks," Andrew replied, relieved that everything was in order. He made his way towards the front door, Violet snuggled safely in his arms. But before he could reach the car, Nanny Grace's voice called him back."Uhm... Andrew," she hesitated, concern etched on her face.Andrew turned back to face her, his eyes filled with curiosity. "What is it, Nana?"Nanny Grace took a deep breath, her voice gentle but filled with worry. "Any news on Alexander?"Andrew's expression tightened, a mix of frustration and pain
Nanny Grace's sobs echoed through the air as she cradled Violet in her trembling arms. Tears streamed down her face, and her voice cracked with anguish as she cried out."Alexander, noooo!" Her legs gave way beneath her, and she collapsed to the ground, clutching Violet tightly.One of the cops quickly shouted, "Call in the divers!" The police were already taking action to search for Alexander's body in the water below the bridge.Andrew rushed to Nanny Grace and Violet, his own heart torn apart by the events unfolding before him. He knelt down beside them and wrapped his arms around them both.Nanny Grace, her voice choked with grief, managed to speak through her tears, "Wh...what of Amelia? What happened? Where is she? How did it happen?" Her voice trembled with a desperate hope for answers.Andrew's heart felt as though it had been torn into a million pieces. He struggled to find the words, his voice barely above a whisper. "I...I really don't know. Stone called, and..." Just as
Nanny Grace pleaded with him, her heart breaking at the sight of a man she had once loved like a son, now consumed by rage and despair. "No, no, no, don't harm the innocent baby, Alexander. She has nothing to do with this. Just turn yourself in."Alexander, struggling with his emotions, replied bitterly, "Then what do I get in return? Spend the rest of my life in jail? It's better we all die here!!"Nanny Grace's eyes filled with tears as she realized the extent of Alexander's desperation. She knew she had to reach him, to show him that there was another way out of this dark path he had chosen."Then you'll have to kill me first, Alexander, because I'm getting the baby out of the car," Nanny Grace declared resolutely. She was willing to put her life on the line to protect Violet.Alexander's hands trembled as he held the gun. He couldn't bear the thought of hurting Nanny Grace, no matter how deep his pain ran.Nanny Grace slowly approached him, step by step, keeping her gaze locked
The other police officers rushed to the corridor where Detective Stone was, following his urgent call for an ambulance. As they saw Amelia's lifeless body lying on the ground, one of them recognized her and exclaimed, "Isn't this Mr. Reynolds' wife? Is she dead?"Detective Stone walked over to Amelia's body, he knelt down beside her, gently placing his hands on her neck to check her pulse. His expression grew more grave as he felt her faint heartbeat. "Her pulse is very low, quickly call the ambulance!!!" he urgently instructed one of the officers.The officer quickly made the call, relaying the critical situation to the emergency services. "They're on their way," he responded to Detective Stone.Meanwhile, Detective Stone's phone rang, and he took it out to answer. It was Andrew on the other end. Before he could say anything, Andrew's voice came through, stammering with worry. "I... I can't find Amelia! Ch... check the warehouse for her! Have you seen her?!" Andrew desperately sa
One of the henchmen hesitated, looking back at Amelia lying unconscious on the floor. "What about her? Are we leaving her here?!" he questioned, showing a flicker of concern."We don't have time!! Go bring the baby!!!" Alexander snapped, prioritizing their escape over everything else. Leaving Amelia behind was the only option he saw to ensure their escape.They rushed upstairs to where Violet was sleeping, and Alexander's henchman quickly grabbed her, carrying her in his arms as they hurriedly left the warehouse.Amelia remained motionless on the floor.Outside, the police sirens grew louder, signaling that the authorities were closing in. Alexander's heart pounded with fear as he led his men to a getaway vehicle, hoping to escape in time.One of his men said, "But what about the money?!"Alexander's eyes flashed with anger and frustration. "Do you want to go to jail?!" he snapped back. "Andrew would do anything for his daughter!!! Let's move!!!" he ordered.Their priorities were cle
Amelia continued to stammer, her voice trembling, "I swear, I don't have it. You took it with you."Meanwhile, Andrew and Detective Stone were hard at work, tracing the call from Alexander's phone. The tension in the room was thick as all their attention was at tracing the call, knowing that every second counted in finding Amelia and Violet.Detective Stone's face lit up with relief and excitement. "We've gotten it, sir! They are in an underground warehouse downtown," he announced.Andrew's heart raced with a mix of hope and fear. "What are you waiting for, let's hurry!" he commanded.With the location finally pinpointed, Andrew and Detective Stone wasted no time. They rushed out of the study, making their way as quickly as possible to the underground warehouse where Amelia and Violet were being held captive.The room was filled with tension as Alexander, consumed by rage, cornered Amelia, demanding to know the whereabouts of his phone. He grabbed Amelia by the arm as he shook her
