Chapter 650
With a loud bang, the main door slammed shut. After about 15
minutes, James and his secretary walked out.
James had a fierce look in his eyes, and there were bloodstains on the steel strap of his Patek Philippe.
Meanwhile, the intermittent cries of pain and pleas from a woman still emanated from the room.
“Stay back to clean up.”
“Yes, Mr. Iverson!”
‘Bella Thompson… This girl is indeed interesting.’ James had a sinister look on his face as he clenched
his fingers. ‘It’s been a long time since I encountered someone who dares challenge me face-to- face,
let alone a woman. Well, since she wants to play, I’ll play with
her. Let’s have some fun!’
With this outburst, Bella vented Amelia’s grievances and did so with immense satisfaction. However,
Amelia could not shake off the
sense of discomfort lingering within her.
Perceptive as always, Bella left first, leaving Steven alone with Amelia. The two headed to an open-air
balcony to catch some fresh air, trying to calm their turbulent thoughts.

“Ms. Amelia, it’s windy here. Put this on.”
“Did you tell my sister about what happened with Mandy that night?”

Amelia turned slowly, her gaze complex as she stared into his eyes.
Steven hesitated for a moment before answering softly, “Yes. I told
Ms. Bella.”
“Why did you do that? My affairs with Mandy are my business. Why
did you involve my sister?”
Amelia’s eyes were full of anxiety, and her beautiful eyebrows were
tightly knitted. “My sister is already busy and tired enough. How can
you let her worry about such trivial matters? Moreover, it almost
caused friction with Mr. Iverson. Do you think Mr. Iverson will let this
go so easily? Have you considered the serious consequences for my
sister?!”
“Ms. Amelia…”
“Steve, you are my sister’s secretary You also care for her. Why didn’t you consider her feelings at this
moment?”
Amelia’s tone grew heavier, sounding urgent. “What if Mr. Iverson
takes offense and causes trouble for my sister in business? Have you
thought about how serious the consequences of this could be?!”
Faced with her questioning, Steven felt a deep sense of pain in his
heart.
He was momentarily flustered, and his hands abruptly gripped
Amelia’s shoulders.
His eyes were burning red. “Ms. Amelia, but I was so angry! I wanted to help you vent your anger. I was
afraid that the wretched woman
would bully you at school again! Just thinking about her insults
toward you that night, I couldn’t take it any longer. I just wanted to

rush to your side to protect you.”
“Steve…” Amelia was momentarily stunned, gazing deeply into his

The scorching heat from his damp palms flowed down her shoulders
and into her body. It made her heart pound intensely.
“I know that I used Ms. Bella this time, and I will apologize to her. But, Ms. Amelia, I can’t control it
anymore.”
Steven’s eyes met her gaze. His breathing became rapid, and his cheeks flushed with heat. “I hate
myself for not being capable enough. I hate that I’m so useless. But as long as I can protect you, I’m
willing to do anything.”
Amelia’s cheeks turned rosy as tears welled up in her eyes. She
suddenly leaned forward and gently rested her forehead against his
broad shoulder.
There was a passage she once read.
[What is love?
[It’s the courage of the weak and the generosity of the poor;
[The persistence of those who weigh the pros and cons, the gamble of the prudent;
[The efforts of the people incapable of expressing themselves;
[And the determination and unwavering commitment to do what one knows is impossible, without a
single trace of regret.]
