Chapter 548
As soon as Amelia saw this woman, her pupils narrowed, and she
began to tremble even more obviously in Steven’s arms. Her back was covered in a cold sweat.
The woman was called Mandy. She and Amelia were in the same department and school, but they had
never gotten along. In fact, Amelia has been the target of her bullying. Amelia had been bullied,
humiliated, and mistreated by Mandy on several occasions.
Steven recalled hearing Ms. Bella mention that Ms. Amelia was scared of fast-moving cars and had
trouble crossing the street.
Back then, when Wyatt married Celeste, he had a large family, and most of his children were young.
Envious of the Thompson family’s power but unable to touch Wyatt, some rivals turned their malice on
his children.
At the time, they believed that Celeste was the least favored wife. Thus, her child, Amelia, must be the
least favored too.
They intended to make the man who stole their business suffer to the brink of despair.
Thus, they sent someone to murder Amelia, who was just seven years old at the time.
In the end, Amelia escaped with minor injuries, and Wyatt exacted revenge, destroying the rival family.

on Amelia’s young heart.
Steven felt his breath becoming suffocated at this point in his thoughts. A surge of anger rose within
him.
“Ms. Amelia! Are you okay?”
“I’m fine, absolutely fine.” Amelia forced a smile, pretending to be
calm. Her pale face and cold sweat on her forehead, however,
revealed her fear.
At that moment, the seductive woman named Mandy cast a glance in
their direction. She rolled her eyes at them and could not help but feel irritated and jealous when she
saw Amelia being embraced by such a
handsome man.
But when she saw that Steven only had a Porsche worth around $1 million, her expression became
tinged with disdain and contempt.
“Pft, what a poor bitch!”
Although her voice was not loud, Steven and Amelia both heard her.
Steven was so enraged that his eyes turned bright red for a brief moment. “Ms. Amelia, please wait for
me. I’ll be right back.”
“Steven… Steven!” Amelia panicked, but it was too late. Steven had already approached the woman
with a stern expression.
“Who were you talking about earlier?”
“Did I say something? Perhaps you misheard me “Mandy’s tone softened but remained arogant as she
looked at the handsome man
in front of her
Steven clenched his fist and gritted his teeth. He knew she was
insulting Amelia, but she refused to acknowledge it, and he could no
hit a woman. It was extremely frustrating.
“Thank you for driving me home, Mr. Iverson. I will be waiting for your the next time you invite me out.”
With a fake sweetness in her voice,
Mandy blew a kiss toward the closed car window.

Steven furrowed his brows. There was no movement visible through the dark window, and the engine
was roaring at that moment, almost like it was shouting.
Fueled by his anger for Amelia, Steven knocked on the car window.
“Your car almost hit my sister just now. Do you plan to just leave like
this?”
Amelia’s heart tightened, and she bit her lower lip in concern. She did not want Steven to stand up for
her, and she certainly did not want to
get into a fight with Mandy.
However, there was no response seen from the car window.
“Hey! What is wrong with you? The road’s very wide. We were driving normally. When did Mr. Iverson’s
car hit yours?” Mandy mocked him
with a cold smile as she crossed her arms.
She continued, “Hmph, are you trying to pull a scam? You seem like a decent young man. How can
you do something so heinous?”
