Chapter 1036

Author: Goldfish
Winona stood in the crowd, watching it all unfold. A silent disbelief settled in her chest.

Just a few months ago, Amelia had been Christopher's wife. Now, he was getting engaged to someone else. Things moved so fast that it was hard to keep up.

Samantha was just about to step onto the stage when a sharp, grating screech of metal grinding against metal cut through the room.

Everyone looked up at once.

The massive crystal chandelier hanging over the center of the ballroom was coming loose.

Its either Sam and Elijah set this up to frame Amelia since she didnt attend or this was Lincoln's doing given he was expecting it. If it was anyone else we didnt know, then looks like this part of the story is gonna go bigger. Either way, its good that Amelia didnt attend as it was not safe for her

    "So what do we do now? Do we adjust our strategy and deal with Lincoln first?" Nigel asked."No." Christopher shook his head. "Fighter 07 is still our core advantage. If Lincoln wants to go head to head, it won't be that simple. Set up a senior leadership meeting this afternoon. We'll go over a response plan. And move faster with our government partners. Don't give him any opening.""Understood." Nigel nodded and turned to leave.Christopher headed toward the hospital entrance, his pace steady. As he passed the end of the hallway where Amelia had disappeared earlier, he slowed.Without really thinking about it, he glanced down the corridor.It was empty. Only the faint smell of disinfectant lingered in the air. Something in his chest tightened, leaving a hollow, unsettled feeling that kept getting stronger."Mr. Zephyr, the car's ready." Nigel's voice came from the entrance.Christopher pulled his gaze back, took a slow breath, and forced the feeling down before walking ou

    After getting back from the hospital, Amelia barely made it to the bed before she fell asleep, but the rest didn't last. Her sleep was shallow and broken, filled with scattered, uneasy dreams.Sometimes Evelyn was there, clinging to her leg, looking up with wide eyes. "Mommy, why didn't the baby stay?"Then the scene would shift to the harsh glare of surgical lights. Other times, Christopher stood far away, watching her with something unreadable in his eyes, never stepping closer.When she woke at dawn, her pillow was damp, her forehead covered in cold sweat, and her chest felt tight, as if something heavy was lodged there.She washed up quickly, picked up her medical file, and left the house. Today was her final set of tests.If everything checked out, the procedure would be scheduled at a hospital in Northon. There would be no need to travel elsewhere.The hospital hallway smelled sharply of disinfectant. Amelia walked quickly, reviewing the freshly printed results as she hea

    The fluorescent lights in the ER were harsh and glaring. Jasper helped Amelia onto a bench, her face so pale that it almost blended into the wall behind her. Damp strands of hair clung to her forehead, soaked with cold sweat.In the car, she had doubled over without warning, clutching her abdomen, her body shaking. Jasper wasted no time. He ran red lights the entire way to the hospital."Doctor, she's pregnant. She was planning a termination, but she suddenly had severe abdominal pain. Please take a look."Jasper caught the on-duty physician and spoke quickly.The doctor frowned and guided Amelia onto an exam bed. After a brief check and a look at her results, he returned with a serious expression. "Early pregnancy with abdominal pain, and you've had strong pregnancy reactions before. Your body is under a lot of stress. A procedure right now would carry a higher risk than normal."He paused, looking at her. "Are you sure you don't want to keep the baby? If you do, we can admit

    Christopher pulled into the driveway of the villa. It was the house he had once shared with Amelia.A few of the motion sensor lights along the stairwell were out, leaving the space dim and unevenly lit as he made his way upstairs.He pushed the door open. A faint scent of gardenia drifted toward him. It had always been Amelia's favorite. Even after the divorce, he had never changed the diffuser.The living room looked exactly the same.On the TV console sat the only family photo they had ever taken together. In it, Amelia smiled softly, and Nathan was curled against Christopher's chest, his eyes bright with laughter. Evelyn stood beside Amelia, holding her hand.It was the family portrait Amelia had insisted on.Christopher lowered his gaze and stared at it. He had no sense of how much time passed.Suddenly, his phone rang.It was an international call from Caleb.Christopher answered. Caleb's voice came through right away. "Chris, I heard you started a new company and re

    Amelia's voice wasn't loud, but it stayed steady and precise, controlled down to the last detail. There was nothing in it that gave her condition away.Christopher sat at the head of the conference table at FutureDrive, his eyes fixed on the screen. His gaze lingered on the gray camera icon next to Amelia's name.His brow tightened slightly."Does Nova Nine have any additional input on the technical integration timeline?"He spoke without looking away, his tone even.Amelia paused for a moment, organizing her thoughts. "We think the third phase could be extended by about a week. The main concern is production time for the core components. It would help reduce the risk of quality issues later."Her voice dipped as she finished. The strain in her throat caught up with her, and she had to stop to take a sip of water.Christopher's frown deepened.He thought about her voice on the call the night before. It sounded rough and strained. Maybe she really was sick.The meeting continue

    Amelia tightened her grip on the phone, her nails pressing into her palm.She knew Christopher wasn't wrong. FutureDrive had no shortage of potential partners. Nova Nine, on the other hand, couldn't afford to lose this chance.She took a steady breath, pushing down the discomfort and the frustration, and kept her voice even. "Understood. I'll send it in 30 minutes."After the call ended, she forced herself out of bed and walked to the desk, opening her laptop.The nausea kept building. She worked through the numbers, stopping every so often as a wave of dry heaving hit, her body tensing as she tried to push through it.Thirty minutes later, the revised contract was sent to Christopher's inbox, right on time.Amelia closed the laptop. The moment she let go, her strength gave out. She fell back onto the bed and slipped into a heavy, restless sleep.Inside FutureDrive, Christopher was still in his office, the updated contract open on his screen.He went through it carefully.Th

    If she remained exposed to the wind, the chances of her catching a cold were very high.Amelia nodded.She looked right into Christopher's eyes. They were dark and deep, but she couldn't quite make out his mood. All she could see was endless cold and aloofness.He probably thought she was wrongin

    After Christopher moved the things to the 18th floor, he left with Nicole without saying anything further.He made it look like they had simply met by chance, and he was just extending a helping hand to a stranger.Lincoln arched a brow at what just happened. He said to Amelia, "You must've known

    Amelia's eyes sprang open the moment she saw the silhouette.However, she couldn't see anyone after taking a closer look. The lights were switched off, and the room was dark. Amelia propped herself up on the bed and sat up. There was no one else in the room aside from herself. After confirming

    "I can introduce you to lawyers I know. You can discuss things with me," Amelia offered."Divorce isn't out of the question, but it may get troublesome," Claire said.She massaged her temples, feeling an impending headache. She took a deep breath."I've been married to him for so many years, and
