Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 535

Amara was already in a bad mood after her conversation with Finnian, and now Elowen was walking right into her line of fire. Her first instinct was to argue back, but then she remembered not to fall into the trap of defending herself. Instead, she sneered, "What's it to you? If you want to wrap two men around your finger, go find them yourself. Why are you bothering me?"

As expected, that retort angered Elowen far more than any self-defense would have.

She clenched her jaw, her eyes burning with jealousy.

"Do you think I'm like you, enjoying playing with people's feelings? I'm nothing like you!"

"Is it that you don't want to be, or that you can't?" Amara shot back with a cold smile.

Seeing Elowen grow even angrier and about to retaliate, she stepped closer and said contemptuously, "Stop spouting nonsense at me. I've warned you many times, you won't get anywhere with me. Now get lost."

She deliberately lowered her voice as she spoke. When she saw the look of disbelief on Elowen's face, she felt a sense of satisfaction and turned to leave.

Amara said goodbye to Larry and left the Sullivan residence with Keith.

In the car, Keith glanced at her stomach and asked, "When do you plan on announcing the pregnancy?"

Amara gently touched her slightly rounded belly.

Her bump was starting to show now, and she had to wear loose-fitting clothes to hide it.

She said, "Let's wait until the shares are settled before we announce it. Larry is extremely traditional, and in his eyes, getting pregnant before marriage is disgraceful. If we announce it too early, he might back out. It's better to wait until everything is finalized."

Keith thought about it and agreed it was the logical thing to do, so he nodded.
