Came Back as an Heiress After My Ex-Fiancé Made Me Blind novel Chapter 43

As Amelia approached, she saw Dempsey standing in the corridor. Her eyes immediately turned red

"Dempsey, the way Teacher McCormick treated me on stage, yet he favored Sister so much..."

"Why does Victoria always rob me of everything? She knows that I have always wanted to have Stella McCormick as my teacher..."

Seeing Amelia shedding tears, Dempsey wanted to comfort her as he did in the past, and scold Victoria, but his mouth felt as heavy as if filled with lead, and he couldn't bring himself to speak.

Dempsey pursed his lips and said, "Amelia, about bribing the judges, you..."

Amelia was stunned. Dempsey did not comfort her immediately.

Amelia immediately stepped forward and said innocently, "Dempsey, how could you bribe the judges for me? This is not right. I want to win the competition with my efforts."

Dempsey frowned. Could it be that Amelia didn't throw him under the bus, but really didn't know that he had bribed the judges?

But he had clearly hinted at her.

Amelia saw Dempsey's distressed expression, and she quickly changed her approach, "But I know that you were doing this for my good, so I will bear the consequences of this matter together with you! If the netizens want to criticize, let them include me in their criticism!"

Upon hearing this, Dempsey couldn't deny feeling moved.

His younger sister, Amelia, was remarkably sensible.

She would rather bear the blame with him than face it alone.

Dempsey felt a lot more at ease, but he still had some doubts. He couldn't help but think of what Victoria had said to him at the auction house.

Do you really think that the person who saved you was Amelia?

Initially, he dismissed it as Victoria's attempt to claim credit for Amelia's heroics.

But after today, he was a little confused.

He didn't seem to be able to decide whether the person who saved him was Amelia.

Dempsey took a deep breath and gazed at Amelia in front of him.

"Amelia, during that perilous situation, was it you who risked everything to save me?".

Amelia was shocked when she heard this. Why did he suddenly ask such a question?

Did he suspect something?

Amelia's mind raced with thoughts, but she maintained a composed outlook, her eyes widened in surprise, a look of innocence on her face,

"Dempsey, why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"

"Although I'm not from the Montgomery family, in my heart, I have long regarded you as my biological brother. If you encounter danger, of course, I would risk everything to save you."

Dempsey reached out and patted her shoulder, "Amelia, don't think about it, I was just asking casually."

Amelia bit her lower lip and looked sad, "Dempsey, are you still blaming me for the bribery incident? At that time, I truly had no idea. When the host asked me, I could only say I didn't know. I didn't intend to push you out alone."

"Okay, silly girl, how could I blame you?"

Dempsey smiled, offering a few consoling words. However, it was evident that his mind wasn't fully present, and he wasn't as emotionally invested in comforting Amelia as before.

Amelia gritted her teeth. Damn it, she had to find a way to restore Dempsey's trust.

Amelia was in the midst of packing her belongings in the lounge.

Carl Carter suddenly came over and laughed expecting, "Victoria, Mrs. Moore, congratulations on winning the first place!"

Amelia turned around, spotting Carl in a pink shirt standing at the lounge door.
