You dirty little thing! Rebecca shouted, her intensifying as she saw Amelia trying to leave, "Cback here! Someone grab her!" rage Perhaps it was due to Amelia's trembling body and unsteady steps that resembled a fragile vase on the verge of shattering but no one dared to physically restrain her.

However, at the end of the corridor, she caught sight of Viola, heavily pregnant and supported. by Poppy Instinctively, Amelia took a step back, remembering how Viola had once handed her a pair of scissors.

"Don't even try to tellyou don't have the money. I discussed it with Barrett last night. You'll be managing the household from now on, and Barrett will contribute 30 percent of his salary to the family fund. We'll handle the rest of his salary ourselves." "30 percent?"
