Chapter 547
It felt as if someone poured scalding water onto her chest. Her cold, numb fingers clenched uncomfortably into a tiny ball.
Bella thought, ‘Why? Why was Justin so kind to Bella but so incredibly cruel to the former Anna Brown?”
“You know me well, Ash. I have always been someone who despises evil and values good, with clear lines between love and
hatred. Perhaps what you said is correct. Emotions can be complex and difficult to define. But that is not how I am. I know
exactly what I want. What about you?”
Bella gazed out the window quietly, her voice slightly choked and her eyes reddening. “No matter how complicated my feelings
for Justin have become, there is no love left in it. I risked my life for a man, wasted my entire youth loving someone, and endured
the pain of not receiving any reciprocation. Doing it once in this lifetime is enought for me.”
Steven drove Amelia back to school. They were both lost in their own thoughts, remaining silent throughout the journey.
As the night grew darker, the back gate of the school became eerily quiet, and the Porsche came to a slow stop.
There was a surprising, unspoken understanding.
They sat side by side in the car, with no one making the move to get out.
The moon hung in the sky, casting a soft and gentle glow inside the
car. The calm, subdued atmosphere created a romantic mood.
“Thank you for sending me back, Mr. Lovett.” Amelia shyly broke the
silence.
“Ms. Amelia, please don’t be so polite. Just call me Steven or Steve.”
Steven felt deeply guilty toward Amelia.

Due to their different statuses, he added a bit more distance to his
words. “Even though I have watched you and Ms. Bella grow up, I am.
ultimately Ms. Bella’s secretary, a subordinate working for the
Thompson family. Mr. Asher and the others are your brothers. I am
really not worthy of you.”
Amelia was usually perceptive and sensitive. She sensed Steven’s desire to keep some distance from her.
For a brief moment, her heart ached, and she looked ahead with eyes.
that seemed to hold the dew of early morning, moist and watery.
“Steven, I... I will not cause you any more trouble in the future. Please
don’t hate me, okay?” Amelia stammered.
“You are exaggerating, Ms. Amelia. You have never caused me any trouble. It is me who does not want to have any impact on
your life,” Steven sighed softly.
He leaned in slowly and assisted her in unbuckling the seatbelt. Their
warm breaths filled the car, and the temperature inside gradually
increased.

Steven avoided looking into her eyes. He kept his eyelids lowered and
quickly straightened up. “It’s quite late. Let me walk you in.”
With that, he opened the door and stepped out of the car.
Amelia recalled his words and felt like a dark hole had been hollowed
out in her chest. She was filled with a chilly sense of loss.
She knew they could not be together and that the kiss was an accident. How could an ordinary girl like her pique the interest of
such.
a remarkable man as Steven? She must have been delusional.
The passenger door opened. Steven resumed his usual respectful demeanor, inviting Amelia out of the car.
Amelia tightly pressed her pale lips together and stepped out of the
car.
“I can go in by myself. You don’t have to accompany me.”
Before she could finish her sentence, a roaring engine erupted from
behind Amelia, frightening her.

She instinctively covered her ears and closed her eyes. She had developed a severe aversion to the sound of fast-moving cars
as a
result of a near-accident when she was a child.
Steven’s face darkened when he saw her reaction. He opened his. arms and embraced Amelia with lightning speed, quickly
turning to
shield her.
A silver top-of-the-line Ferrari Laferrari zoomed past them. The car generated a gust of wind that lifted Steven’s suit, showing
how fast it
was going.
“It’s okay now. Don’t be afraid. I’m here.” Steven gently consoled her.
Duyg
He gave a gentle pat to the shivering Amelia. His eyes showed a
mixture of deep dissatisfaction toward the owner of the speeding car
and concern for Amelia.
The Ferrari came to a halt outside the school’s back gate.
The passenger door opened, revealing a pair of seductive,
tantalizingly long legs.
A woman with wavy ash-brown hair emerged from the car in a sexy short skirt, with exquisite and vibrant makeup.
