Chapter 252 Comparing Vincent to Jeremy
Vincent glared at Marcelo, as if to say,
“I’ll deal with you
later.”

He was seriously regretting it now, regretting breaking off his engagement with Amelia.
He was starting to realize that he was really falling for her and didn’t want to let her go.
Even if he had to go against his mom, he still wanted to be with her.
“No, please don’t cancel the engagement! I want you two stuck together forever. That would make me the happiest person alive,” Amelia said, waving her hands, being absolutely sincere for the first time.
Keeping these two tied together was practically doing a favor for everyone else.
Otherwise, they’d just go around ruining some other poor guy or girl’s life–that just wouldn’t be right.
“Amelia, what’s wrong with me? You used to be crazy about me!”
Vincent couldn’t believe how cold and heartless her words were.
If she wasn’t mad about his engagement to Gianna, then it had to be because of Jeremy!
Yes, Jeremy!
It had to be that guy. She’d been pretty close with that annoying jerk lately!
Thinking about it made Vincent even angrier.
Vincent shouted in heartbroken rage, “Is it because of Jeremy? Are you breaking up with me because of that man?”
“Use your brain. You might still have a little of it left.”
That was basically a polite way of calling him an idiot, right?
That only made Vincent angrier. He completely lost it and shouted, “Jeremy’s no good!
“He’s just playing with you! He’s never gonna marry you!
“Do you even know who the Currans are? That family’s been powerful for centuries! It’s not as simple as he made it sound!”
The Currans were the top of the top families in Novaterra. Their company, Curran Group, was

one of the nation’s leading corporations. For Jeremy to rise above all those relatives and elders to become the youngest person in charge of Curran Group …
You could tell just how powerful that family was. And Jeremy might be young, but he was way smarter and more calculating than people his age.
He’s a sly dog who will dump that idiot woman as soon as he gets bored!
Instead of getting mad at Vincent’s insults, Amelia just crossed her arms and watched him with a genuine interest.
He was just asking to be humiliated.

But he wasn’t here, and since it could piss off this shameless guy, why not enjoy it a little?
After saying that, she sneakily glanced around, suddenly feeling a bit guilty.
Maybe it was just in her head, but she could swear someone was watching her.
It reminded her of that one time she’d done the same thing–trying to tick someone off by comparing him to another guy–and Jeremy had actually walked in on it.
That was super embarrassing!
That cocky jerk had then teased her relentlessly for days.
So, she instinctively glanced around, terrified of bumping into him coming to eat again.
Phew. No Jeremy in sight.
Feeling safe, Amelia relaxed and went back to her usual chill self, not realizing that someone was watching the entire thing!
It wasn’t Jeremy this time, but his childhood friend, Anderson.
