Crowned by the Man They Feared (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Slap in the Face

Amelia's eyes went cold the second she heard the name Nygards. "Okay. It's time they see how the real daughter they threw away is doing now."

Jeremy nodded with satisfaction. "I'll come pick you up at seven on Saturday night."

He paused, then added, "Also, dress nicely. My personal doctor shouldn't show up to a fancy dinner in a lab coat."

Amelia took the black card from him. "Okay, I'll do that."

She had left home with nothing, so money was tight. There was no way she would refuse this.

Plus, she was helping him with his treatment, so asking for a little payment was fair.

Jeremy even assigned her an assistant, Tracy Gatlin, to help with whatever she needed.

After giving her these instructions, he left.

Amelia thought to herself. Not bad. He really thought of everything.

After he left, she took a long shower and slept deeply.

She felt refreshed!

Since leaving the Nygards, even the air seemed fresher.

When she woke up, she checked her phone and saw it was full of messages from the Nygards.

She had forgotten to block them before.

Still, feeling a bit vengeful, she started replying to them one by one.

Marcelo texted, "Where are you? Come back! We need to talk!"

Amelia replied, "Get lost!"

She didn't hesitate and immediately blocked him.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth as she scrolled down.

Miguel wrote, "Amelia, stop being stubborn. Come home now or you'll regret it."

Amelia replied, "Sorry, my only regret is not leaving sooner."

Then she read Maxwell's message. "Amelia, you ungrateful wretch! After everything we did for you, even a dog knows to show thanks."

Amelia texted, "If I'm a dog, then you're worse than one."

Fake girl Gianna wrote, "Amelia, where are you? Aren't you coming back?"

Amelia replied, "Don't worry. Even if I don't go home, I'll still expose your fake little act."

Next was Raymond's message. "You disgrace! Come back now. We need to talk."

Amelia replied fast, "Mr. Nygard, we're done. What's there to talk about? The 30% company shares? Forget it! I'd rather die than give them back."

After that, she blocked the whole Nygards.

Now, there's only one word to describe her feeling.

Satisfying!

Huh! All their sweet words were just about the shares. 

So fake!

After blocking them, she tossed her phone aside and stretched lazily.

The sunlight outside was perfect. She decided to go out and find a dress for the charity gala.

She called Tracy. "Tracy, please take me to the shopping mall."

Half an hour later, Amelia was standing in front of the city's fanciest shopping center.

She walked straight to the high-end boutique.

"Miss, these are all this year's newest styles," the staff said with a smile.

"I want to try that one," Amelia said, pointing at a champagne-colored gown on a mannequin.

Just as the staff went to get it, a familiar female voice shouted, "I'll take this one!"
