Chapter 792 Amelia and Nolan Are About to Reunite
Betty nodded with satisfaction and patted Richard on the shoulder. "Do a good job, don't get hurt. If you lose a single hair, I will kill you."
Richard smiled, walked over to Steven, and once again assumed a vigilant stance.
Steven looked at Kavi coldly.
Kavi acted as if he didn't see him at all, as if he were looking at a dead man.
"Young people these days always have their own ideas, talking about reform and innovation. This is going to ruin the work of the whole family," Kavi said, indirectly criticizing Steven while talking to Arnold. "I heard Mr. Sanders has a son. He must be well-educated and obedient. Disobedient children are ungrateful.."
He was indirectly cursing Steven.
Steven's fingers clenched, veins bulging on the back of his hand.
Indeed, Steven's parents died early, and his grandfather also passed away early. After that, Kavi took control of the Hughes family. Steven had to act weak under Kavi's shadow to survive. Later, to gain power, he married into the Willer family, which Kavi thought he could control.
But unexpectedly, Betty was not someone easy to control, so Kavi couldn't seize the Hughes family's shares and the position of power from her during Steven's suspended death.
However, thanks to Ethan, Betty was able to return to Silverlight City with Steven's inheritance and survive.
She knew she had to cooperate with Ethan to stay alive.
"Some people are truly not human," Betty said sarcastically, walking over. "Oh, isn't this Kavi? You haven't been buried yet?"
Kavi's face almost exploded with anger, and he gave Betty a sinister look.
"Yes, Kavi, you should rest. When the time comes, I'll make sure to give you a grand funeral," Steven said with a smile, glancing at Betty.
He might have been happy that Betty was still willing to help him.
Kavi, being a shrewd person, had the patience to endure this.
Seeing Steven and Betty united front, Kavi became more convinced that Indigo was their child.
Squinting his eyes, Kavi smiled and said, "Young people these days speak without restraint."
Priya, standing nearby, was so scared that her face turned pale and kept giving Betty meaningful looks. "How can you talk to Kavi like that? You have no respect for elders."
"It's okay, " Kavi said with a smile, his expression stiffening, and his voice low and threatening. "Disrespecting elders will bring divine retribution."
"Oh, listen to that. You talk as if divine retribution is up to you. Who are you to be so powerful, having connections even with god?" Betty said, her expression truly infuriating.
Betty wasn't trying to argue with Kavi, it was Kavi who was shameless.
Kavi's face grew even darker with anger. Seeing the situation, Brade quickly supported Kavi to the side. "Kavi, you shouldn't stand for long. Let's go sit over there for a while."
After saying that, Brade glared at Betty, as if to say, "Why provoke him for no reason?"
If Kavi went crazy and retaliated, it would cause trouble for everyone.
Betty snorted but said nothing.
"Betty," Steven finally spoke, looking at Betty with excitement, thinking she was speaking up for him.
"Don't overthink it. I'm deliberately drawing hatred towards you. This is Silverlight City, Kavi won't do anything to me, but all the hatred will be directed at you. You better hold on and be careful" Betty said nonchalantly, flipping her hair as she walked away.
Steven took a deep breath. Betty wasn't helping him but harming him.
Richard, standing nearby, couldn't help but lower his head and laugh.
Steven's gaze instantly turned sharp, looking at him.
Richard straightened up, trying to suppress his laughter, and diligently watched his surroundings.
Steven snorted. "Don't be too happy too soon. We'll see."
"Ok. Be careful of the people around you, don't let anyone kill you," Richard quickly reminded Steven, urging him to be vigilant.
Steven was really infuriated by Richard and Betty, but there was nothing he could do.
Meanwhile, Nolan was still trying to build a relationship with the daughter of the Chamber of Commerce chairman.
Elaine was a gentle woman, and the Long family was large. Raymond was Elaine's cousin, and Samuel was her younger cousin.
The Long family was a prestigious family in Silverlight City, with members in both business and politics.
And the Long family placed great importance on family background. Those Elaine liked were not approved by her family. Fortunately, Nolan was highly regarded by her family, and she also liked him.
So, she was determined to make an effort.
"Mr. Cunningham, next Friday, we're going to Sunrise City. Do you have time?" Elaine asked with a smile.
Nolan was distracted, and his assistant had to remind him. "Next Friday?"
The assistant checked the schedule. "Mr. Cunningham, the meeting next Friday can be rescheduled."
Nolan frowned. This assistant was really foolish. Couldn't he see that Nolan didn't want to go?
Nolan decided to fire him when they got back.
The assistant, realizing his mistake too late, wondered how to fix it.
"Mr. Cunningham," the assistant said nervously.
"Alright, let's go. Make the arrangements," Nolan said through gritted teeth.
The assistant nodded, confused. Wasn't Nolan supposed to be forming an alliance through marriage? Why didn't he want to go to such a good opportunity?
Elaine was very happy. "Then we'll see you on Friday."
Sunrise City.
Amelia was trimming flowers in the yard when someone walked in. "Amelia, next Friday's musical theater festival in Sunrise City needs flower decorations. It's a big job, and I got it for you."
It was a neighbor who had always looked out for Amelia.
Amelia looked at him happily. "Thank you."
The neighbor waved it off with a smile. "It's nothing. Just treat me to a meal when you make money."
"Of course!" Amelia said happily.
She not only ran a bed and breakfast but also had a flower business. She had connections with several small flower shops across the country, supplying them with fresh-cut flowers year-round.
Amelia was working hard to make a living with her small business.
Although she couldn't make a fortune, she thought that she could save enough money for her child by the time her child turned eighteen.
"Baby, Mommy will work hard to make money for you," Amelia said, looking down at her slightly swollen belly. "Mommy got a big order today, so let's have something nice to eat."
Amelia happily went to the kitchen, planning to treat herself today.
A musical theater festival would need a lot of flowers. She couldn't handle it alone and would need help from the bed and breakfast staff.
As she calculated the flower quantity needed for tomorrow, Amelia ate some milk candy, thinking about the work ahead.
She probably didn't realize that she would meet Nolan again tomorrow.
