    “There’s another matter.”


    Amelia continued, “I heard you hired awyer to sue your dad for


    divorce?”


    She’d been stunned when she heard.


    Her first thought was Wesley had gone mad.


    This was mainly why she’de.


    Brendon couldn’t handle Wesley at all


    “If he refuses the divorce, I’ll have to sue.”


    “But he’s your father!”


    Amelia’s elegance vanished in anger.


    She couldn’t understand why Wesley insisted on Brendon divorcing Amelia, let alone demanding he leave with nothing.


    He’d lost his mind, siding with outsiders.


    “I gave him a choice.”


    Wesley remained icy.


    “Wesley, your father hasn’t been ying around for just a day or two.


    Isn’t it toote to make a fuss now?”


    Darkness shed in Wesley’s eyes.

    As Amelia tried to press on, Amelia bellowed them out with booming authority.


    A formidable force, Amelia and Larissa could only retreat in disarray.


    The hospital room fell quiet.


    Amelia red at Wesley, but then remembered how reliable he had been during her divorce from Brendon–he hadn’t taken sides or abandoned her.


    Her anger subsided considerably.


    She arranged, “Cecilia’s pregnant and shouldn’t be caring for you at the hospital. I’ll send the housekeeper.”


    Wesley knew what mattered. “I know,


    He never intended for Cecilia to nurse him anyway.


    He just wanted to see her care.


    But clearly, so far, he hadn’t seen it.


    He’d called Cecilia back only to have Elijah take her home.


    Amelia seemed satisfied. After instructing Elijah, she left with Cecilia.


    During the ride home, Amelia brought up Cecilia’s studio.


    “You’re carrying Wesley’s child and months along. You should pause your studio work.”


    Amelia said tly, “Or hire a professional to manage it.”


    Cecilia didn’t respond. She’d always known Amelia maintained her solely because she carried Wesley’s child.

    Or perhaps, after the Brendon incident, she’d simply be more open–minded.


    Amelia still disliked her deep down.


    Cecilia had self–awareness.


    So she wouldn’t ruin her budding career just because of pregnancy.


    “The studio’s managed. It’s not busy.”


    Amelia was not satisfied with this answer. “Cecilia, you’re already. Mrs. Carlton, you should be his proper helpmate.”


    “Take this car ident–if you hadn’t let him go find Larissa, it wouldn’t have happened.”


    Amelia still held resentment inside.


    She remembered Cecilia’s past kindness to her, so she’d reluctantly epted her.


    But that didn’t mean she liked Cecilia as her daughter–inw.


    Cecilia gazed out the window, expression cold, tone t: “I tried to stop him. He wouldn’t listen.”


    She didn’t get Amelia’s me–Wesley was dead set on rescuing Larissa, was she supposed to tie him up?


    Besides, if anything happened to Larissa, she’d still get the me.


    Cecilia wasn’t about to/make trouble for herself.


    Amelia thought Cecilia was brushing her off.


    Getting annoyed, she pinched her brow and said firmly: “Forget the studio, I’ll have someone run it for you.”

    “I said no.”


    Cecilia stood just as firm.


    Amelia’s face went icy. “Cecilia, I’m not asking.”


    “Touch my studio, and I’ll take it straight to Wesley.”


    Wesley was Amelia’s weak spot.


    So Cecilia yed the Wesley card.


    Amelia’s chest burned with anger–she didn’t speak another word the whole ride back.


    The car pulled up to Chaston Vi.


    Amelia told Cecilia to pack Wesley’s things for the hospital.


    Cecilia headed upstairs. “Not feeling well. Can’t do it.”


    Amelia: ”


    …


    In the end, she had the maid pack everything.


    Cecilia never showed up again.


    Amelia felt deeply unsettled. Thinking of Cecilia’s pregnancy made her resent Wesley’s situation even more,


    At the hospital, her expression remained cold.


    “Cecilia really is something. I offered to hire a professional to manage her studio, but she refused. Insists on working outside every day. Truly born to suffer.”


    “Mom, don’t touch her things.”

    ??Amelia no longer interfered with Wesley and Cecilia’s rtionship.


    Having genuinely epted Cecilia, she now focused on molding her into a proper Mrs. Carlton,


    After all, once the old master passed, Wesley would take full control of the Carlton family, and Cecilia would transition from Mrs. Carlton to the matriarch.


    Social engagements would inevitably follow.


    Without proper training now, she might be aughingstockter.


    “That studio of hers barely makes anything.”


    Amelia’s voice dripped with disdain.
