The next morning, Amelia was already up making breakfast. She was making lots of breakfast since Finn and Rose were visiting.“Good morning, young miss.” Satan walked into the kitchen, cracking his knuckles.She turned her head to look at him. “How is the morning going?”Covered in sweat, he reached for the refrigerator and pulled out a bottle of water.“Pretty good, miss.” He wiped his lips with the corners of his arm. Only to cover his lips with sweat."Morning, young miss.” Saint and Anger chanted as they headed for the refrigerator. They were also covered in sweat.Both men grabbed a bottle of water each and drank from it. In a few seconds, ten bottles of water were gone.“What are you making?” Satan inquired. “Can I help?”Anger picked up all the empty bottles and tossed them in the trash can. One missed the can and landed on the floor. Amelia glared at him, and he immediately picked it up.“Sorry.” He muttered before throwing it in.She glanced at Satan, who was waiting for her
Mr. Terry Bartram sat across the table, his hand on his chin as he pondered what to do. Present as the table was his son, Jade and Brad who was his daughter ex-fiance.Although food was laid out on the table, none of the men touched it. They all lacked the appetite to eat.“How do we get her out of that asylum?” Terry demanded. “Her public image is already damaged, but we can still save it by taking her out. She isn't a lunatic.”Fists tightening, Jade muttered, “I am going to kill her if I do find her.”“Jade…,”“Brad told her to apologize, didn't he? She decided to go against him and attack the lady.”“I am sure that the lady did something first.” Terry supported his daughter. “Hannah never attacks someone unless the person is taking her stuff.”“You are disgusting,” Jade blurted out, his eyes dark. “You spoil her and expect her not to be freamed. Honestly I ma not surprised that she got the taste of her own medicine.”“Hannah is my daughter; I have to take care of her.” Teddy purre
“Who is he?” Rose whispered to Amelia as she glanced at the young man sitting across the table.He was in a discussion with Leonid, and Viktor was going into their conversation. It only made Amelia wonder what kind of a kid Leonid was in high school.“That's Finn, my husband's best friend.”“Oh,” she muttered before she continued eating.Everyone was at the dining table, including the guards. “I didn't expect you to tell the difference between Satan and Saint.”Rose rolled her perfect, round, big eyes. “It is no big deal and was super easy. I already saw this picture, and I know that Satan has a rakish appearance that is cute and adorable.” She giggled as she began filling Amelia's plate with food.Mila was on the table too, and this time she was on Rose's phone trying to conquer a game that she was playing.“Also, did you adopt that little cutie?” She inquired as she gestured using her eyes.”Amelia shook her head. “No, I haven't thought about adopting her. The Vanderbilts are seriou
“I'll get her,” Rose told Amelia. “Get changed.”Amelia nodded and was dressing up when Rose left the changing room. Meira had a hand on her waist as she waited for them to step out. As soon as she spotted Rose, she opened her mouth to speak, but Rose beat her to it.“Seems like you wear decent clothes now.” She glanced at the top that Meira had worn over her torn gown. “What do you want to tell me?”“I knew that it was that person in there who sent Hannah to the asylum.” Meira accused. “You have to bring her out of here. I don't care if she is pregnant or not. I am going to show her a taste of her own medicine, although Hannah has failed to kill the baby. I might be the one to do it.”Rolling her eyes, Rose leaned in closer to Meira, who stepped back in surprise.“What are you doing?” Meira demanded.An evil glint appeared in Rose's eyes. “I see what's happening here. You are in a one-sided love with your favorite livestreamer. What would you do if I told you that she is straight and
Moving swiftly, Rose caught the blade in between her fingers. Twirling, she threw the knife back at the sender. The knife hit Meira at her other shoulder; blood filled her mouth and rolled out of her lips.Amelia, who had been holding her breath, finally took in the air. Satan and Saint wanted to end Meira there and then, but they didn't want to draw more attention to Amelia.“Thank you.” Amelia gazed at Rose. “That was a quick catch.”“It was nothing.” Rose rolled her eyes and held Amelia's hand. She pulled Amelia outside the female section and glanced back at Meira, who was already spitting blood. “I guess she poisoned that knife, and now she can't get the antidote.”“Why can't she get the antidote?” Amelia inquired, turning her head back to look at Meira.“That's because I have it with me.” Rose raised a bottle for Amelia to see. “She dug her own grave, even though she was rushed to the hospital. She would never survive.”Turning her head back toward the path, Amelia raised an eyeb
“Dad, who the hell did you bring home?” Jade demanded. “Isn't that a fan of Hannah?”Terry crossed his legs as he took his seat. He looked away to avoid his son's question.“Why did you let her into the house? Why is her arm like that?”“A friend of Amelia Harrington broke her hand and left her poisoned by her own knife.”“And you brought her home?!” He bawled. “For what? She is useless to you if you want to set your daughter up with Leonid.”Terry shook his head. “She isn't.”“Then what? What can she do to help your plan?”“She can get rid of that woman.”“Who?”“She can get rid of Amelia Harrington.” Terry replied. “I just need to get Amelia alone, and it's all settled. She is just a weak woman, and it would be easier to kill her when she is alone.”Jade didn't look surprised at his father's words. “You want to take her husband and still want to kill her?”“Not only that. I have sent people to the asylum to get Hannah out. I am only going to know when they are going to go out for di
“What was that? He wants Meira to kill me."Amelia demanded. “What about you letting him get me? I have to deal with one-hand girls by myself. I had been quiet earlier.”“You are pregnant,” Leonid reminded her. “You can't stress yourself too much, and I can't let her get to you.”Glancing back at Rose, Amelia nodded her head. Rose picked up a laptop that was next to her and began typing on it.“I know about that.” She turned her head to look at Leonid. “I can't just let them classify me as weak, and since they are after my husband too, I just can't let them get away with it.”“But…”“Meira has a one-sided love for Hannah, and they are only using her to get to you and me.”“I can't let you go. After our appointment with the doctor, we will have dinner at a restaurant and pretend to be drugged. Rose and Satan would send you home, and I will know what to do next.”“No,” Amelia shook her head. “What if it doesn't work out?”“Don't you trust me?”“I do, but..."“No one is going to take me
The hours of the movie were long gone, and Leonid was cracking his knuckles as they made their way to their car. Amelia held an ice cream in her hand and was grinning from ear to ear.Rose and the S twins also held ice cream in their hands. Rose was eating hers, but those men were only looking at theirs.Handing both their ice creams to Rose, they gestured with their eyes for her to eat them too.“You could have just said that you didn't want it,” Rose told them.They couldn't; of course, Amelia didn't even ask them before she bought theirs, and it was going to be rude for them not to accept it.“Where are we having dinner next?” Amelia inquired as she glanced at Leonid. “You look pale.”He smiled at her; his appearance was already looking better after they left the cinema. The movie was too long but quite enjoyable.“I know a restaurant to take you.’’ He replied. “You also have to be alert; Hannah's father is going to drug us at the restaurant. You aren't going to eat a thing; I will
