"Amelia said she wants to treat me to dinner, and I thought it'd be nicer if we all went together. So, I wanted to ask if you're free. How about the three of us going? We can celebrate our project going well lately."
She made sure not to mention that she was the one who suggested it. Instead, she used Amelia as a "shield," which made it sound more natural.
Harrison's gaze rested on her face for a few seconds, as if he saw through her little scheme. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly, then his usual cold look returned.
"Sorry. I already have plans."
"Who are you meeting? A man or a woman?"
That last question was the real point.
He simply replied, "Secret."
"You just love acting mysterious. Hmph." Josie stomped her foot and stormed out angrily.
Harrison watched her leave. She looked angry. He couldn't help smiling and shaking his head.
As soon as Josie left the office, she turned and saw Amelia waiting outside. Amelia was sitting there, scrolling on her phone and smiling sweetly. It was obvious she was texting someone.
"Amelia, are you trying to provoke me? Did you look in the mirror? Do you see how sugary your smile is?"
The contrast was huge.
"Is it really that obvious?" Amelia asked shyly, then added, "Is Mr. Ramley coming with us?"
"He already has plans. And who it is? Secret."
Just thinking about it made Josie mad. She grabbed Amelia's hand and walked off. "Forget him. We'll go by ourselves!"
The two of them went to a restaurant they often visited.
It was a casual bistro with a nice atmosphere. The food looked delicate and there were many choices.
Josie especially loved coming here. Every time, she picked the table with the best view and the best photos.
"I'm paying today, so I'm ordering a lot. I'm going to enjoy this meal properly."
"Okay, no problem. As long as you're happy." Amelia knew her well. Josie was definitely about to do something unusual again.
In this area, Amelia always admitted she couldn't beat Josie. Josie had endless ideas.
Once all the dishes were served, Josie immediately took out her phone and snapped many pretty pictures.
She even took selfies holding the food with her eyes closed in a very artistic pose.
She was naturally beautiful, so every shot looked good.
Someone with her looks didn't need filters.
After editing, Josie posted a story and deliberately tagged Harrison.
The drama addict showed her eager little expression again.
"Every time you talk about this, you get completely sucked in. Should I transfer you back to Nygard Entertainment?" Amelia teased.
Josie immediately shook her head. "No, I don't want to be transferred!"
She might fall for every male lead in every show, but she still liked Harrison the most.
She still couldn't understand why she always felt a strange familiarity when she saw him, like they were meant to be a couple.
Maybe she wanted to win him over so badly that fantasy and reality were starting to blur.
"I also think..."
Josie suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
"What do you think?" Amelia looked up in confusion.
Josie's eyes were wide, like she had discovered something shocking.
"Damn! I see Harrison! That jerk came here to eat too—and he's dining with a woman!"
It would have been one thing if Harrison brought a woman to dinner. But he even chose this exact restaurant.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Heiress They Couldn't Break (Amelia and Jeremy)
I'm starting not to like Josie's character. If any man did all the things she's doing, they'd be considered creepy. This version of Josie is giving me the ick....
Does the novel ends in chapter 716 or is it still ongoing?...
Absolutely beautiful!...
Oh my! I really like Whitney (Jeremy's mum). She's so down to earth. She didn't even acknowledge Sabrina's presence....
I don't know what's with this new writer, but they are only making things worse. Gianna does in fact know how to ride a horse. She's had lessons and she even had a race with Amelia where she threw nails on the track to cheat. Gianna fell in the mud and was embarrassed when they pulled the cameras at a riding club owned by Jeremy....
Why did Cloudspire Estate change from a house to an apartment? Why is the writer acting like Jeremy does not own the property and he is not the one that allowed Amelia stay there? I hate when the writer does not remember what they wrote....
This is chapter 51 again when it should be chapter 52. Please fix for future readers....
New chapters please. If Amelia doesn’t end up with Jeremy I’m going to cry...
New chapters please....
