Chapter 91
Amara had heard the rumors before. In the past, she might have sighed and thought it a shabout Celeste.
But now, she wasn't as concerned with the fate or feelings of others. She had her own priorities.
So when Celeste lashed out at her with biting sarcasm, Amara calmly retorted, "Even if your brother and | are
heading for a divorce, I'm still your sister-in-law for now.
Is this how you treat family? Where's your manners and respect? Did you leave them somewhere along the way,
or did you never have them?"
Amara's gaze was icy. If it weren't for Martin and Andrea standing nearby, and the fact that they had always
been kind to her, she might have been even harsher.
But even at this level, Celeste couldn't take it. Her eyes widened in indignation. "Amara, what did you just say?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAre you implying | wasn't raised properly?"
"Let's not blyour upbringing. Your family's education was fine. Maybe you just couldn't grasp it."
Amara rebuked her in subtle manners instead of exploiting directness, surmising that Celeste was smart enough
to catch the hidden insult.
Sure enough, Celeste realized it and raved, "Who do you think you are to judge me? Do you think you're perfect?
Lettell you..."
"Mr. Everly is here, Mr. Everly is here, we can start the dinner!"
At the moment, the front door swung open, and Finnian, ever the impasiveness, dressed in dark suit, stepped
in, handing a gift to the waiting butler, who took it over and eagerly announced his arrival.
Though young, Finnian was the de facto leader of the Everly Group. While Kevin still held the title of chairman,
Finnian's shareholding was now greater, giving him more influence.
Whenever Finnian appeared, he becthe focal point of the Everly family. As he entered, Martin, Andrea, and
the others flocked to him, showering him with greetings and inquiries, leaving Celeste in the dust.
Seeing Amara standing alone on the sidelines, Celeste smirked, ready to hurl a taunt. But before she even got
started, Amara, fully aware of Celeste's intentions, ignored her and walked away, leaving Celeste fuming.
Pausing at the dining room
entrance, Amara glanced back at the living room scene. The Everly clan hovered around Finnian, while she his
supposed closest relation, stood apart. Though no words were exchanged, a lot of mocking glances were cast her
way.
Amara was indifferent to the state of her marriage with Finnian but had no desire to be the target of such
scrutiny. She turned and entered the dining room.
After a while, Finnian seemed to

seat twenty, though only a dozen or so were present today, making it more than sufficient.
In such a family, seating arrangements were dictated by hierarchy. With Finnian seated to the right of the head
position, Amara followed and took her place beside him.
Finnian wore a gray suit over a black shirt. As he sat down, he removed his jacket, handing it to a nearby staff
member. Throughout this, he didn't glance at Amara once, and she sat quietly, staring ahead without a word.
