Crowned by the Man They Feared (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 616

"Why are you here again?" Amelia frowned the moment she saw Maxwell.

Both her words and her expression stabbed Maxwell right in the heart again.

But by now, he was basically immune. He smiled anyway and said, "Of course I had to come. Marcelo, Miguel, and Mom were all worried. They're afraid you're not taking care of yourself. You're carrying all of Nygard Group on your own now. It's too much. So they told me to keep an eye on you and make sure you eat properly and get enough rest."

Amelia shot back immediately, "Aren't you all working at Nygard Group too?"

How had it suddenly become her carrying everything alone?

"Oh, no, that's not what I meant. We're not trying to take over the company or anything. We'll definitely help manage it together. We're just worried about you. About your health, your meals, your daily life," Maxwell hurried to explain.

He thought Amelia was worried they might fight her over control of the company, so he rushed to clarify, clearly panicking.

Amelia stayed silent.

She did not remember saying anything like that. Why was he so nervous?

She had originally planned to kick him out of the office like usual. But after thinking about it, she showed mercy and pointed to a small chair.

"Then sit there. Or if you have something to do, go take care of it."

After saying that, she and Patience walked over and sat down on the extremely comfortable couch inside.

"No, no, I'm not busy at all," Maxwell said quickly.

The poor guy obediently sat down on the small chair, feeling incredibly moved.

Not long ago, he had not even been allowed a chair. He had been sent straight out of the office.

Now he had a chair. A small one, but still a chair.

Did this mean Amelia was slowly starting to accept him and forgive him?

The thought made Maxwell wildly excited. He immediately sent messages to Marcelo and Miguel.

He even texted Emery to share the huge news.

His fingers flew across the screen, every word filled with barely contained excitement.

Even the cheap little stool under him suddenly felt like it had been plated in gold.

He sat up straighter without realizing it.

"Where did Josie go? I was thinking we could all chat for a bit," Patience said.

"She's busy finding excuses to meet Harrison whenever she has free time. Always talking business with him," Amelia replied.

"That's kind of weird, she seems especially into Mr. Ramley," Patience said gossiping happily.

She had not known Josie as long as Amelia had.

"Yeah, this is the first time I've seen that girl take someone so seriously," Amelia said.
