Amanda’s POV:

It was Derrick.

I never imagined that the one who wanted Samson dead would be him.

“I was shocked too,” Theo said with a sigh, his tone full of disbelief. “We’re all family, yet he could go this far. It shows how ruthless he really is. We don’t know why he backed off the first time, but from what we found, this matter is definitely connected to him.”

I frowned deeply and lightly tapped the name on the file with my finger.

“Keep watching him in secret and see if he makes another move,” I said in a low voice. “Now that he failed once, he’ll surely plan something else. We have to control him before he acts again.”

“Don’t worry. Leave it to me,” Theo replied right away. Then he glanced at the sky outside. “It’s late. You’ve been on a plane for a long time, so you must be tired. I’ll take you back to Ortega Castle first.”

The car soon drove into Ortega Castle.

I pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Hugh and Josh sitting on the couch, talking.

“Hello, Hugh,” I walked over and greeted him.

Hugh looked up and his eyes lit up when he saw me. He smiled warmly and waved. “You’re finally back. Where’ve you been these past two days? I didn’t see you at all.”

I could only make up an excuse. “I had something to take care of, but it’s all settled now.”

“That’s good,” Hugh said with a nod. Then he suddenly remembered something. “Oh, right. This Friday is the Eclipse Pack elders’ meeting. You should come too.”

I froze for a moment and asked without thinking, “I need to go as well?”

Josh couldn’t help speaking up, “Boss, you hold 50% of Eclipse Pack’s decision power now. How could you miss such an important meeting?”

I scratched my head in embarrassment and had no choice but to agree. “Alright. I’ll go with you then.”

After that, I turned and went upstairs.

Winter had already arrived, and the rooms upstairs felt chilly. I turned on the heater and only relaxed once the room slowly warmed up.

Samson kept his injury in Caucan very quiet, so no one in the Ortega family knew about it.

He only returned from Caucan two or three days later.

As soon as he came back, he threw himself into work, busy preparing for the shareholders’ meeting. I barely saw him for several days.

It wasn’t until Thursday night, just after I finished dinner and was about to leave the table, that I heard the sound of a car engine shutting off outside.

The maid, Beata, came over to report, “Ms. Lamb, Mr. Ortega is back.”

My steps slowed without me realizing it. A few seconds later, I saw Samson walk into the living

room.

I pretended it was a coincidence and walked up to him. “You’re finally back.”

There was clear fatigue on his face, with faint dark circles under his eyes. He must have been extremely busy these past few days.

But when he saw me, the tiredness in his eyes seemed to fade a little. He replied softly, then asked, “Have you eaten?”

“I just finished,” I said, looking at him. “You haven’t eaten yet, have you?”

He nodded. Beata quickly stepped forward. “Mr. Ortega, you didn’t say you’d be eating at home, so we didn’t prepare enough. It may take a little while before dinner is ready.”

Samson frowned slightly, then said, “That’s fine. I’ll go upstairs and attend a meeting first. Call me when dinner is ready.”

After speaking, he turned and went upstairs along the spiral staircase. Beata hurried toward the kitchen, clearly planning to make dinner. Watching her busy figure, I followed her. “Beata, let me help.”

Beata waved her hands quickly. “No need! I’ll handle it. Mr. Ortega likes spaghetti. I’ll just make him a plate.”

“It’s simple. I’ll do it,” I said with a smile. “You’ve been busy all day. You should rest a bit.”

Beata still wanted to refuse, but seeing how firm I was and remembering Hugh’s earlier reminder to take good care of me, she finally gave in. “Alright then. Take your time. If you need anything, just call me.”

After she left the kitchen, I opened the fridge, took out the ingredients, and started cooking. Before long, a plate of spaghetti bolognese was ready.

Looking at the tempting pasta, I couldn’t help but smile. I picked up the plate and headed upstairs. I knew his study was at the end of the second-floor hallway.
