Not many people knew about the rtionship between Amelia and Steven, and the Iverson family is one of them. The lversons
must have some courage to darey a hand on Steven! "Steven, how did you manage to get in?" Justin asked worriedly.
"| was swarmed by the lversons'' bodyguards, but | found a way to break through and snagged an ess card from one of the
bodyguards and forced my way in," Steven replied, his face pale with sweat dripping down his forehead.
“Hmph! The Iverson family really went to great lengths to stop you!" Justin''s eyes shed with anger, but he kept his emotions
steady in front of Be. His tone was cold. "Your injuries are serious, especially with your old wounds. We can''t waste any time.
I''ll haven take you to the hospital right now."Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
"No! I can''t leave! | must see Amelia! | have to get her out of here!" Steven''s voice was hoarse, almost desperate.
"Steven, please think this through." Justin raised his eyebrows and said, "Originally, with Be''s help, you might still have a
chance to be with Ms. Amelia. But if you cause such a scene tonight, you might anger Chairman Thompson and ruin any chance
of being together."
"Chance? Chairman Thompson has already agreed to the Iverson family''s proposal. It''s a done deal! Amelia is soft-hearted and
timid. She willpromise for her parents and for the family. If | don''t fight for it, then what chance do we have?"
Justin looked into Steven''s desperate eyes and felt his pain as if it were his own. As the president of Salvador Corporation, Justin
had power and influence. Even with his grandfather''s support, he had risked everything to be with Be today.
Steven was just Be''s subordinate, and his family background was nothing in front of the Thompson family. Even if he and
Amelia were truly in love, the difficulties they faced were no less than his own. "Steve, who sent people to attack you?" Be,
burning with anger, was single-mindedly bent on avenging him.
Steven shook his head. "I originally wanted to force my way through, but | was stopped by Astrid and her bodyguards. The
person with her was Charles'' secretary. | don''t know whether it was Charles or Astrid who really ordered the attack."
Infuriated, Be burst intoughter. Her beautiful eyes glinted with cold light. "They both share thest name, and their veins are
filled with the same filthy blood! Since we can''t tell them apart, let''s just take them all down!"
Meanwhile, Amelia remained oblivious to Steven''s ordeal. However, she was burdened with her own thoughts.
No matter how much Charles attempted to win her over, Amelia remained indifferent. She couldn''t bring herself to listen to
anything he said. In her heart, there was only Steven. It was impossible to ept anyone else.
Lost in her thoughts, Amelia''s phone slipped from her hand to the ground. As she bent down to pick it up, Charles also moved to
assist her, and their hands identally collided. Amelia hastily retracted her hand, but to her surprise, Charles boldly grabbed
her hand!
"Ah!" She eximed, jerking her hand away abruptly and standing up indignantly. "Mr. Charles, what are you doing?!"
"I''m sorry... I''m sorry, Ms. Amelia. Your hand is truly beautiful. | couldn''t help myself... | was out of line." Charles quickly adopted a
look of anxiety, his eyes misting over.
"I''m sorry, but... | really like you, Ms. Amelia. My younger brother has always loved your sister. You know that. Marrying him
would ruin your life. He won''t treat you well! But I''m different. | really like you. Why don''t we be together? That would be for the
best!"
"Enough, stop talking!" Amelia''s face
was flushed with shame and anger,
and her heart was filled with
indignation. "Even ¥gh mymbdther
seat officially aa iéd to my father,
you shouldn''t treat me so
disrespectfully! I''m not interested in
you or your fourth brother. But at
least your brother doesn''t disrespect
me like this. He''s better than you!
Don''t waste your efforts. | won''t
choose you!" The content is on

Trembling, Charles took out his phone and sent a message to his secretary.
