No Sex for Six Years Because of Her? I'm Done novel Chapter 474

Chapter 474 Need Me to Come?

Ethan’s eyes stayed fixed on her back.

Amelia’s arrival had quieted what had been a relatively harmonious group of cousins.

They all sneaked glances at her from the corners of their eyes, but no one dared speak first.

Amelia didn’t mind. She started arranging the funeral items.

The silence stretched uncomfortably across the table.

Finally, the youngest cousin couldn’t hold back. She slammed something onto the table and hissed to her older sister, “I really don’t know what kind of witchcraft she used to charm Grandma so completely.”

Amelia paused.

She knew Ethan’s presence could keep their mouths shut, but it couldn’t erase their deep–seated prejudice.

Before she could respond, the older sister’s face darkened. Under the table, she stomped on the younger girl’s foot and waved her hands frantically to shut up.

The younger girl wanted to argue, but her sister pressed down harder.

“Are you crazy? Didn’t you see Ethan watching? He’s making sure no one bothers her. And now you want to stir trouble? Do you want to make life harder for yourself?

“Grandma is gone. Ethan runs everything now. Everything we spend depends on him running the company well and pumping money into the trust fund! If you cross him, you’re basically cutting your own money off. Got it?”

The words hit hard. The younger girl glanced at Ethan and froze under his cold stare.

She shivered in fear. Her face went pale as she lowered her head, not daring to say another word.

Amelia watched it all silently.

She continued arranging the items.

The oppressive atmosphere made her feel suffocated. She instinctively pulled out her phone and unlocked

1. it.

The screen lit up with a photo of her and Mason.

He looked so gentle, and just seeing it eased the knot of anxiety in her chest.

She typed him a message, “Is everything going okay over there?”

Almost instantly, he replied, “All good. Kaia even took Hayden to the little hill in town to pick some greens today. Mom made a ton of ravioli after. Too bad you missed it.”

Seeing the lively, everyday vibe in the text, Amelia quickly sent back a sticker of a drooling little cat.

“Then eat extra for me.”

“I can’t eat much. But there are still plenty of fresh wild vegetables in the mountain season. Next time you come, I’ll take you to pick some yourself.”

Those few words alone made her stomach rumble.

The afternoon passed quietly amid that back–and–forth silence.

She spent the time with the women of the Rowes on funeral preparations.

The flowers were stacked and carefully arranged around the hall, adding soft color to the sea of white.

Dinner was just as heavy.

The long redwood table was filled with exquisite dishes, but no one was in the mood to eat.

Everyone seemed to have lost their appetite.

Afterward, everyone went their own way. Ethan approached Amelia.

“I’ve set up a room for you to rest,” he said, his gaze shifting uncomfortably. “It’s the same one you stayed in before.”

Amelia remembered it well.

It was the room Fiona had arranged for her when she first married into the Rowes.

Fiona had said both of them could stay anytime, but Ethan had never actually stayed with her.

After every family gathering, he’d always find an excuse to leave quickly, leaving her alone in the quiet

room.

Sensing the subtle change in her expression, Ethan added, “Don’t worry. I won’t come over.”

Amelia kept her face calm.

She looked at the almost–ready mourning hall and asked evenly, “When are we bringing Fiona’s body back?”

She was deliberately shifting the topic.
