The Heiress They Couldn't Break (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 476

Chapter 476 Embarrassed by the Past

So outdated!

Amelia was busy flipping through the funny photos of Jeremy from his childhood.

* Finished

She stared at them with curiosity and laughter, completely missing the meaning behind someone’s carefully chosen words.

When Jeremy realized she was staring at photos of his chubby younger self, his face stiffened at once.

He felt awkward and rushed to grab the album back, but Amelia was faster and snatched it away first.

“Hey, what are you doing?” she teased. “Are you shy?”

“Don’t look!” Jeremy snapped. “It’s ugly!” It was the first time he had ever felt this embarrassed and uncomfortable.

“Haha, no way,” Amelia laughed. “It’s actually kind of cute.”

Her words only made his face turn even redder.

Seeing this side of him for the first time, Amelia found it oddly fascinating.

She realized that spending time here on weekends, relaxing like this, really did lift her mood and make her feel happier.

“What’s cute about that? I look way better now,” Jeremy argued.

“Oh?” Amelia teased. “You care that much about your looks?”

She had always thought a man this handsome never worried about appearance at all.

“In front of you,” Jeremy said honestly, “of course I care.”

In the past, he only cared about strength, about control, about shaping his fate and even the fate of others.

Jeremy focused on becoming the strongest man possible; looks had never mattered much to him.

Besides, he knew he looked decent enough.

After meeting Amelia, things changed. He started paying attention to his appearance, his style, and even the way he dressed.

Especially after that time, she and her friends went out to have fun with a gigolo. It bothered him more than he liked to admit.

There was no way he could lose to those gigolos.

“Ahem.” Amelia coughed lightly, suddenly feeling a little shy at his blunt words.

There were elders and a child right there. What was this man even saying?

Whitney, however, saw absolutely nothing wrong with it.

In fact, she cupped her face, her eyes practically turning into heart shapes.

A*!

Jeremy really knew how to talk. Way too smooth!

At this rate, I might become a grandmother sooner than I thought.

Oh my, heehee!

Finished

Amelia, already the family favorite, didn’t even get the chance to say much more to Jeremy or stay by his side for long.

In the blink of an eye, Whitney had dragged her outside into the garden to look at the flowers and plants instead.

Floyd naturally stayed right by her side, never leaving her for a moment, like a tiny guardian.

He didn’t talk much and was usually very quiet. But listening to Amelia chat with Whitney, he found it interesting and new and quietly took it all in.

“Amelia, don’t these herbs look pretty good?” Whitney asked with pride. “I’ve been working on a new grafted variety lately. It’s especially helpful for childhood asthma and other breathing problems.”

True to her background in medical research, Whitney quickly shifted into professional mode.

When it came to topics like this and with these two experts present, Jeremy had absolutely no place to speak. He could only stand by and listen.

“They’re really impressive,” Amelia said, her eyes lighting up. “This kind of grafting technique is very demanding. Even if it succeeds, it’s hard to grow on a large scale. You’re amazing.”

She looked over the patch of herbs carefully. The area wasn’t very large, but being able to successfully graft around 50 plants was already a big achievement.

What impressed her even more was that every single plant looked strong and healthy. “Not bad at all,” she added sincerely.

Whitney laughed happily. “Of course! Once this batch is harvested, we can try expanding production.”

“That’ll be a bit challenging,” Amelia replied honestly. “But I really like the idea.”

Just then, Floyd, who had been listening quietly the whole time, suddenly spoke in a small voice. “Chicks.”

“Oh my, that’s wonderful!” Whitney exclaimed, instantly delighted. “He’s only been here one day, and he’s already talking. What a nice voice, hahaha.”

She was clearly thrilled and couldn’t help but praise him,

When the child had been dropped off earlier, Cora had been full of worry on the phone, afraid that Floyd wouldn’t adapt well.

But look at him now, playing just fine and even speaking up.

Finished

“Hmm,” Amelia said, glancing around. “These little chicks are here to help control pests for the herbs, right?”

She didn’t even need an answer before adding with a smile, “Once they’re grown and nice and plump, they’d be perfect for a medicinal chicken stew. Very nourishing.”

These weren’t ordinary chicks. One look told her they came from a specialized breeding base.

They were raised on medicinal plants, helping with pest control while also being suitable for medicinal cooking.

Two benefits at once.

They truly deserved to be called special breed chickens.

Amelia stared at the fluffy little chicks, her eyes practically glowing. For a brief, slightly wicked moment, she even felt the urge to turn them straight into stew and enjoy them as tiny roasted birds.
