“What?” The cousins were all shocked by what they had heard from Lisa but didn’t want to believe her almost immediately.They all stared at Amelia and one of them eventually asked, “Amelia, that isn’t true, right?”Amelia was boiling in rage as she glared fiercely at Lisa who had a proud smirk at the corner of her lips.She was excited about this and wanted to torture Amelia even more.Why was Amelia Sinclair always the talk of the Sinclair family at large and why was she even the number one eminent beauty in her City?Why does everyone get to worship her like a goddess while their parents reprimand them for not being like their Cousin, Amelia?Yes, she was jealous of everything Amelia had and everything she had achieved.She had always been jealous of her since they were a child.When other mothers would be interested in Amelia’s unique beauty above every other female child in the Sinclair.She had always sought an opportunity to get back at Amelia and this one had presented itself.

William Miller could only stare at Ava as she got up to get close to him.If only he knew she would get drunk and act this way.Amelia stepped in just in time and stopped her sister.Her face was flushed red because of what her sister had said.Even though she was drunk, she was a little excited to see her not resent William for once.“You are drunk, Ava” She grabbed her hands tightly and tried to take her away.“No…” She argued, “I want the 20 Million dollars. We are going back. We—yes—Us”William who knew what she was talking about kept a straight face and pretended to know nothing.Amelia managed to hand over her sister to one of the maids and they took her away.“Ava could be that way” She smiled apologetically at William and he only smiled in return.Only if she knew he was the orchestrator of the Brother-In-Law title.“Father, I worked hard to buy this porcelain for you, produced during the Northern Song Dynasty and is currently valued at five million dollars” This caught Willi

Everyone gasped in shock and the noise in the hall increased among the family members who were now confused.The rumors flying around about Amelia Sinclair’s new boyfriend and his presence at the birthday party that night.Was she getting engaged to him now?This raised a lot of questions in many minds.Amelia tried to control her breathing so she wouldn’t faint on that spot.This news caught the attention of the old man and he raised his head, “My favorite granddaughter is getting married?”“Yes…” Vera was quick to take over and she enjoyed the moment, “You have always worried about Amelia’s relationship so we worked on it”The old man nodded and clasped his hands, “Yes, I want to see my favorite granddaughter’s child before I pass on. I want to hold the next heir and feel good about it”The last words of the Old Man out rightly set the room into chaos and the family members could no longer hide their displeasure.The Old Man had just declared Amelia’s unborn child as the next heir o

“What do you think you are doing?” Edward raised his voice unable to stand the sight of William Miller with his daughter.He had arranged for Diaz David after several back-and-forth meetings and agreement only to get slapped in the face in front of his brothers.He was naturally angry.Amelia disengaged from William and turned to her father, “Mr. Miller and I are together now. I hope you won’t bother us”“Nonsense!” He stamped his feet on the ground, “Are you doing this because he saved you?”“Not just I, but mother and sister, and that is just one of the reasons. He is my choice and not Mr. David you invited here. I never asked for him and you never told me about him”If Ava hadn’t told her before, she would have been taken by surprise today and her parents would really expect her to play along.Ridiculous!“We are making the right choice for you, Amelia. We are your parent” Vera whispered still hoping to convince her daughter about the matter.“You forget I’m not a child. I am old

Every power-playing family had martial arts practitioners but they rarely made appearances in public outings probably because there is never a need as the fear of such families is enough to keep threats away.There are several martial arts practitioners scattered all over New Spring but they can nowhere be compared to the ones associated with power-playing families as the stronger ones get hired every year.Some of the second and even third-rate families also had martial arts practitioners for protection but could only retain a few as they get won over by the power players, leaving the weaker ones behind.But the Sinclairs were different.They are rumored to have some of the top martial arts practitioners and have kept them in hiding as trump cards.A rumor is all it has being with no ground evidence but the power-playing families seemed to know something.They are always careful with dealing with the Sinclair.When Amelia saw this scene unfolding, her heartbeat increased and she was
