The Divorced Heiress Is Getting Married Again novel Chapter 109

Amelie watched as the bathtub filled with water, hot 

steam quickly filling the quiet bathroom along with the pleasant scent of the oils and bath salts mixed 

together into a calming harmony that enveloped her body like an invisible, comforting shawl. 

She sat in the soothing hot water, carefully leaning against the round back of the white tub, and although her body had finally begun to relax, her mind was far from getting any rest. 

Every time she closed her eyes, she saw the very same picture which seemed to be holding her brain hostage with its deadly grip while setting her flustered heart pounding loudly against her ribcage. 

‘He looked… stunning.‘ 

Amelie felt hot blood rushing to her face once again and it wasn’t the bathwater’s fault. She had to slap her face several times to get rid of those unsettling thoughts, but alas, it was impossible. 

Submerging half of her face under the soapy, 

rose–scented water, Amelie closed her eyes and tried

to think about what she saw in the annex building rationally but her mind refused to listen. The strangely curious woman in her took the lead. 

But was it really that strange to be so impressed? 

‘I have noticed it before too; even underneath all those 

suits, it was impossible to ignore how very well he is 

built. So it seems he works out a lot…‘ 

The dimmed soft light, outlining his body with perfectly angled shadows; the bulging muscles, swelling underneath his smooth skin from the intense. workout; the glistening droplets of sweat, sliding down his face, neck, and chest, all the way down to… 

Amelie opened her eyes and splashed her face with 

water. 

She couldn’t help it. Liam was already too handsome to turn her eyes away from him but now that she even saw his body… The entire body, even, she had to admit that in her eyes, he was no longer an ordinary man. 

‘I have never looked at anyone like this before. Richard was the only man for me my entire life and I was perfectly fine with him but now… I guess this is what it feels like to be truly attracted to someone; to actually

desire someone… But he is five years younger than I 

am!” 

Amelie shook her head and sighed. If only Liam knew what she was thinking about him, he would probably find her too weird.

“What?! The country’s first smart technology tycoon?!” 

Richard kept going over the unpublished internal article about Liam Bennett’s new title but not even a single word made sense to him. His face deformed into an angry grimace while the tablet in his hands almost cracked under the pressure. 

It wasn’t only the title of a tycoon that the man received from the esteemed financial community—those were just empty words. 

businessmen threw at one another whenever their financial reports looked better than the last ones. 

Sure, it was different when the leading financial communities did that but the title itself didn’t mean a thing. 

What stunned him the most, was the second to last, vet the most important sentence at the end of the

article in question. 

‘At this point, Liam Bennett is now the wealthiest person in the country, moving ahead of both Josh Malone, the diamond tycoon, and Simon Cornwell, the CEO of Cornwell Healthcare Innovations.‘ 

The man gritted his teeth in irritation and moved his dark brown eyes to the next line of the article. 

‘Now married again, Amelie Bennett becomes the wealthiest woman by marriage, having received an astonishing thirty–five percent of Diamond Group’s shares which makes her an equal owner of the 

corporation along with her husband, pushing down Oscar Bennett himself to the position of a shareholder 

instead. 

Richard’s hands tightened into fists as he dropped the tablet on the desk, his eyes flaring up with absolute 

rage. 

“Ron,” he almost growled through his teeth, “Step outside and wait until I call you again.” 

His assistant nodded and dashed out of the office; he knew better than anyone what it meant to witness his boss‘ rage firsthand.

The whirlwind of emotions was boiling him from
