Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 141

“After going through all this, I’ve come to a realization. I can't take money from the Everly family, and frankly, there’s no reason to do it. You never owed me anything in the first place. So, here it is. I'm giving it all back."

Amara's voice was steady, but Finnian's expression darkened with each passing second. He glared at the document on the table, his thoughts a mystery.

Seeing his silence, Amara took it as agreement and turned to leave.

"Stop!"

Finnian called her as he rose from his chair, striding over to face her.

His intense gaze bore into hers. "Is this really what you want? What are you planning to do after the divorce, running into Keith's arms? How much is he going to give you, and are you planning to take it all?"

The accusation was absurd. Amara looked up. "Mr. Everly, I have no idea what you're implying."

Her fists clenched, anger bubbling beneath the surface. Finnian was being ridiculous. She explained she was amending the property agreement for the sake of Liliana and Hogan, yet here he was, dragging Keith into the conversation. What was his problem?

She was done with this. She uttered in a grim tone, "Mr. Everly, you can think whatever you like. We're getting divorced soon, and I'm tired of arguing. Let's just get everything sorted."

With that, she didn't spare him another glance and walked out.

Finnian watched her angular form, his expression twisted with conflicting emotions. Even after the door closed and she was gone, his gaze lingered.

...

After sitting in his office for a while, Finnian stood up and headed over to Liliana's apartment.
