Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 936

It proved, without a doubt, that she held a significant place in his heart.

But so what?

She might be important to him, but she wasn't the only one who was important. That was exactly why Amara remained resolute in her rejection.

She got up, marched to the door, and spoke through the wood. "Mr. Everly, please leave. I don't want to see you, and I am not opening this door."

Finnian was nothing if not stubborn. "Amara, open the door. If you don't, I'm not leaving."

He knew he sounded like a total creep, but he desperately needed to see her. He just wanted to talk.

Amara bit her lip hard, cursing him under her breath.

She used to think Finnian was a cold, aloof, untouchable billionaire. How had he suddenly turned into such a shameless rogue?

Finnian kept knocking with methodical persistence. It wasn't aggressively loud, and his voice wasn't shouting, but the sheer unrelenting rhythm was bound to attract attention eventually.

Amara gripped the door handle, weighing her options. Did she open the door, let him in, hash it out, and then kick him out? Or did she just leave it locked and let him knock himself out in the hallway?

After a moment's thought, she chose the latter.

She refused to see him. First, she was still furious that he had blocked her late-term abortion procedure. She had no desire to give him the time of day, let alone look at his face.

Second, she knew she couldn't afford to keep engaging with him.

Her feelings for him hadn't entirely vanished. And lately, he had been so good to her—always stepping in to help, offering money, bringing gifts.
