The voice was stern, and it made Amelia's blood boil as it descended down the stairs. She turned towards the stairs and saw her father, Mr. Tate.

He stood there with a stern expression on his face, looking down at her with a disapproving glare.

Amelia's anger towards her father began to boil inside of her. How could he be so insensitive and uncaring? All he ever cared about was business and money, never taking the time to understand her or her needs.

"Amelia, I asked you a question. What are you doing here when your husband is recovering from surgery?"

Amelia's anger flared up at her father's words. He had always been more concerned with business and money than with his own family, and she had grown tired of his constant meddling.

"I came here to be with my mother, Dad. She had an asthma attack, and she needs me," she said, her voice laced with frustration.

Mr. Tate didn't back down, though. "And what about your husband? Didn't he just have surgery? Shouldn't you be with him?"

    Amelia's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected her mom to see through her ruse so easily. She stammered, trying to come up with a plausible excuse."I... I came back because I was worried about you. You weren't feeling well, and I wanted to make sure you were okay." She said, her words barely audible.Mrs. Tate shook her head, not buying her story. "You know I always have my asthma attack once in a while, it's nothing new," she said, her voice firm.She noticed that Amelia seemed to be avoiding her gaze, and she knew that something was not right. She took a step closer to her daughter and placed a hand on her cheek, turning her face towards her."Amelia, look at me," Mrs. Tate said firmly. "I can tell that there is something you're not telling me. What happened in Turkey? Why did you really come back?"Amelia took a deep breath and looked into her mother's eyes, feeling a sense of comfort and security in their warmth. She knew that she could trust her mother with anything, and she

    Amelia's anger boiled over at his question. "Why do you even care where I am?" she snapped. "What about Lila?"Andrew's voice was tight when he spoke. "Leave Lila out of this, Amelia. This is between you and me."She felt her blood pressure rise. "No, Andrew. This is about you kissing your ex-girlfriend in your hospital bed leaving me outside. And then not even having the decency to apologize for it.""You had no right to just barge into my room like that, Amelia, if you had knocked, you wouldn't have seen what you saw."His words echoed in Amelia's mind as she tried to make sense of what had just happened. How could he blame her for walking in on him and Lila kissing in his hospital room?Amelia's anger bubbled up again at his words. "Are you serious, Andrew? You're going to blame me for your mistake?"Andrew's voice was defensive. "You could have at least given me some privacy. Instead, you just walked in like you owned the place."She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "You're

    Perry stepped into her darkened bedroom, where Amelia laid, fast asleep. She approached the bed and gently tapped her shoulder. "Amelia," she whispered, "wake up."Amelia moaned in response, her voice muffled by the pillow she had buried her face in. Perry smiled to herself, knowing that she would have to be more persuasive.She pulled the covers off her body, exposing her to the cool air of the room. "Come on, Amelia," she said, a hint of laughter in her voice. "You've been sleeping too much lately. Are you pregnant?"Amelia groaned and turned over, facing Perry with bleary eyes. "You wish," she muttered, rubbing her eyes.Perry grinned and leaned down to tickle her sides. "Wake up, Ame," she said, still laughing.Finally, she gave in and sat up, pushing her hair out of her face. "Alright, alright," she said, yawning. "I'm up. You win."Perry's eyes searched her face as she sat up on the bed, taking in her expression before speaking. "Amelia," she said, her voice gentle. "It's been

    Amelia's face fell as she slowly descended the stairs, her eyes glued to the pile of papers at her feet. Perry watched as she knelt down, picking up the scattered sheets and trying to make sense of the mess.It was clear that something serious was going on, but Perry couldn't quite understand the details. She watched as Mr. Tate paced back and forth, muttering to himself in frustration.She also watched as Amelia slowly unfolded them, her eyes scanning the contents.Mr. Tate's voice rose as he turned to face her, his anger palpable. "This is what you wanted, isn't it?" he yelled accusingly."No, Dad, that's not what I wanted," she said softly, trying to keep the tears from falling. "I didn't ask Andrew to pull out his funds, and I didn't ask to be used as a business transaction either."Mr. Tate's tone turned harsh as he spoke again. "Did Andrew tell you he's some kind of charity? The deal was to marry you and he'll save us from bankruptcy, but your pride ruined everything."Amelia d

    Amelia smiled warmly at Tony as he stepped out of the car to greet her."It's nice to see you too, Tony," she said, her voice filled with genuine warmth. "Thank you for coming to pick me up."He nodded, his face serious. "Of course, ma'am," he said, opening the trunk of the car. "Mr. Reynolds wanted to make sure you got here safely."Amelia didn't say a word, she just gave him a gentle smile.Tony placed her bags in the trunk, then he turned to his seat. Amelia couldn't help but ask about Andrew, as she turned to Tony. "So how's Andrew been?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity.He smiled. "Wait till you see him yourself ma'am Amelia."As the car drove away from Perry's house, Amelia watched out of the window, as she waved at Perry who was standing outside watching her leave.Amelia sat at the backseat, her hands clasped tightly together in her lap as she gazed out the window. The passing scenery was a blur of green trees and plush lawns as they made their way through the hea

    Amelia felt her heart skip a beat at his words. She knew he was right, but she didn't want to give him the satisfaction of admitting it. She had left Turkey because she was jealous and hurt, and because she wanted him more than she wanted to admit. She tried to pull away from him, but he held her fast, his grip unyielding.The idea of admitting that to him was too much to bear. It felt like a vulnerability that she couldn't afford to show."Don't deny it, Amelia," he murmured, his lips brushing against her ear. "You want me just as much as I want you."Instead, she looked away from him, avoiding his gaze as she took a step back. "I...I don't know what to say," she whispered, her voice barely audible.But Andrew only leaned in closer, his lips brushing against her ear. "You don't have to say anything," he said, his voice full of promise. "Just let me show you how much I want you."Amelia felt her resolve crumble as she melted into his embrace. She knew she shouldn't give in to him, b

    "Uhm…. Are you okay?" Amelia asked softly, breaking the silence.Andrew didn't say anything at first, but then he turned his head to look at her. His eyes held a mixture of emotions that she couldn't quite decipher."I'm fine," he finally said, his voice hoarse. "Just catching my breath."Amelia nodded, feeling a pang of disappointment that he didn't seem to want to talk about what had just happened between them.Amelia watched as Andrew stood up from the bed and silently made his way to the bathroom, picking up his clothes along the way. A feeling of unease crept up in her chest as she wondered if something was wrong.She sat up, pulling the sheet around her body as she waited for Andrew to come back. The sound of the running water from the bathroom filled the room, and she felt a sense of isolation and loneliness.After a few minutes, Andrew emerged from the bathroom, fully dressed. His face was unreadable, and Amelia felt a lump form in her throat as she tried to read his expressi

    "Hold on, I'm coming," she called out, quickly scanning the room for any signs of what had happened. Her eyes fell on the bed.As she gazed around the room, her eyes fell on the bed, where the sheets were stained with blood from their passionate encounter.Panicking, she grabbed the bedspread and covered the stains, tossing it onto the floor with a hasty movement. Hoping to cover up the evidence of her first time with a man. She couldn't bear the thought of anyone seeing the telltale signs of her inexperience."I'm coming!" Amelia yelled.She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself, and forced a smile onto her face as she opened the door."Of course, come on in," she said, gesturing for Nanny Grace to enter the room.She stepped inside and looked around the room, her sharp eyes taking everything in. Amelia tried to act natural, but she couldn't help feeling self-conscious."I just wanted to check in on you, dear," Nanny Grace said kindly. "Is everything alright?"Amelia nodded,

    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!!!"

I'll drive myself," he replied with a smile.Tony said, "are you sure boss?""Nah… I'm fine, hand me the keys."

    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.
