Reborn Without You (Amelia and Christopher) novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118

Nicole had always been allowed to come and go as she pleased in Christopher’s office, and Amelia was made aware of that the last time she came.

The assistant found Amelia’s lack of response boring and scoffed. “Why even bother putting on a front?”

With that, he turned to leave.

Amelia waited in the meeting room for three hours.

She had turned numb from all that waiting, yet she saw no sign of Nigel calling her to Christopher’s office.

Just then, she saw Nigel leaving Christopher’s office and stood up to ask him.

Nigel was stunned to see her still there. “Mr. Zephyr and M. Randall left to go to ACE Technologies’ office for a meeting. I told his assistant to inform you about it. Did he not?”

Amelia’s brows furrowed as she smiled self-derisively.

Christopher’s assistant came to deliver some snide remarks, but didn’t tell her that Christopher had already left.

Nigel knew Amelia’s identity and pitied her from the bottom of his heart.

She was Christopher’s lawfully wedded wife, yet she was always the one being neglected and forgotten.

However, more so than pity, he despised Amelia. He was courteous to her on the surface, but the disdain in the depths of his eyes was clear.

He had heard that Amelia pestered Christopher to no end and used underhanded means to take Nicole’s place. Now that she was on the receiving end of such harsh treatment, all he could say was that people who are most to be pitied must have something detestable about them.

After Amelia left Infotech Group’s office, she tried calling Christopher once more.

As usual, the call went unanswered.

She furrowed her brows, feeling as though Christopher was deliberately avoiding her and leaving her out in the cold.

Yet, she had to wait for him to confirm the details of the project.

Amelia considered her options and decided to knock off work early and head to the kindergarten and wait for Evelyn to be released from school.

There was a possibility that Christopher might be there to pick up Nathan,

She looked at her phone and scrolled through some news reports,

“CEO of Infotech Group Mr. Zephyr at the ribbon-cutting ceremony of his girlfriend’s family’s company,”

One of the headlines drew her attention.

She clicked into the article and saw a photo of Christopheranding next to Nicole, attending ACE Technologies’ ribbon-cutting ceremony.

She had waited for him for an entire afternoon, while he deliberately left her out in the cold just so that he could show his support for ACE Technologies.

Amelia tightened her grip over the phone.

y end up sleeping with each other?”

No wonder people decided to flock to ACE Technologies! Wo would pass up the chance of working with the support of a bigshot like Christopher?

In the end, Christopher wasn’t the one who came to pick uNathan, but Anna.

At night, Amelia finally received a call from Christopher.

He said coldly, “What’s the matter?”

He was asking the obvious.

Amelia talked about the project under her mother’s company and asked for his signature upon completion, and even promised that she wouldn’t bother him after that.

He said indifferently, “Got it. I’ll have Nigel send it over to scent Corporation’s office once I sign in.

Amelia furrowed her brows. She couldn’t seem to figure him out. He seemed to have completely forgotten about her mother for the past few days, and she failed to see him despite making a trip down to his office in person.

Yet now, he was agreeing to her request so readily over the phone,

Was his goal to torture them and seek revenge for Nicole?

Come to think of it, Jasper had rejected Nicole time and tim again. It was completely understandable that she simply couldn’t swallow it.

After hanging up, Amelia smirked inwardly,

Christopher was still so defensive of Nicole,

Adelaide’s third death anniversary was to be held at the Lans’ residence.

Past death anniversaries were spent at the grave site, but this year, the ritual was scheduled to be held at home before they went to visit the grave,

Felix came from the hospital, wearing a black shirt and looking gaunt and pale, a stark difference from his past exuberant self.

Amelia’s eyes turned red at the sight of Felix.

Sickness had always been capable of tormenting and changing one beyond recognition.

Claire held him steady as he walked, watching his every move for fear that something might go wrong

Felix saw Amelia walking over hand-in-hand with Evelyn and pinched her cheek with a doting smile. He looked back and asked, “Where is Chris and Nathan?”

His face fell.

“He didn’t come for the previous death anniversary events, but he’s not even going to attend the third one?”
