Chapter 818 Caitlyn no longer dares to provoke Amelia
Caitlyn looked at Edgar, stunned for a long time before turning to Lucas. "Who is he?"
"He is Edgar, also from the Cunningham family, Nolan's brother," Lucas said angrily. "Mom, he's the one who bullied me."
Nolan's brother, so Caitlyn automatically labeled him as a rich person. "Since he's from the Cunningham family, go back and tell Nolan. If he wants to marry you, I want five million dollars, plus a villa in Silverlight City for my retirement, and fifty thousand dollars a month for my son's pocket money."
Caitlyn was not just asking for too much money, she was extorting.
"Are you out of your mind?" Amelia laughed in anger.
But after laughing, her heart ached, and her eyes burned.
With a family like this, she didn't deserve happiness.
"How can you talk like that?" Caitlyn said angrily. "You ungrateful child, I'm telling you, today you must let us stay at your place, or I'll go to the police station every day to report you."
Amelia clenched her hands and spoke in a deep voice. "Then I'll divorce Nolan, and I swear I'll never marry again! Also, let me tell you, I used the child in my belly to threaten Nolan into marrying me, but the child isn't Nolan's. When the child is born, the Cunningham family will do a paternity test and find out. By then, the Cunningham family won't let us off."
Edgar, standing by, was stunned. Was this true? "Amelia, are you pregnant?"
Caitlyn looked at Amelia in shock, then fearfully raised her hand to hit Amelia. "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Caitlyn was clearly scared, she knew the power of the Cunningham family.
Amelia sneered at Caitlyn. "Just wait for the Cunningham family to kick you out of Silverlight City, and Lucas will never have a foothold in this lifetime."
Caitlyn's face turned pale with fear. "Amelia, don't talk nonsense in front of the Cunningham family!"
Edgar's shocked gaze fell on Amelia's belly. If he didn't look closely, he couldn't tell! Then he suddenly understood! Oh! No wonder Nolan secretly got the marriage license, it was because of the child! He was worried that his cancer, for fear he wouldn't give Amelia much, so he thought of getting married first, so the inheritance would go to her and the child after his death!
So, Edgar suddenly understood and nodded. Amelia was deliberately saying this to scare Caitlyn and Lucas! So, he started to act. "Amelia, what do you mean by this? You say the child isn't Nolan's, and you want our Cunningham family to unknowingly accept this child? Are you having an affair?"
Edgar approached with an angry face, not forgetting to wink at Amelia.
Amelia was startled by him. If he hadn't winked, she would have thought Edgar was really angry.
Caitlyn and Lucas were also scared.
Was the child really not Nolan's?
Could the rumors online be true? Was it really that celebrity Nathaniel's?
"Amelia." At this moment, Nathaniel also appeared at Sunrise City Hospital. Seeing Amelia, he ran over excitedly and hugged her. "Are you okay? I saw the entertainment news and came to find you but couldn't, so I followed that..."
Nathaniel stammered, not knowing what the other person's name was. "I followed a friend's car and temporarily left, but had a car accident on the way."
Amelia looked at Nathaniel nervously. "Are you okay?"
"No, that friend was injured and is hospitalized here. She has no friends in Sunrise City, so I'm taking care of her for a few days," Nathaniel explained.
Amelia looked at Nathaniel nervously. "Is your friend okay?"
Nathaniel shook his head. "Nothing serious, just a concussion."
Amelia breathed a sigh of relief.
Nathaniel wanted to say something but was interrupted by Edgar. "Is this your lover? Is the child his?"
Edgar stepped forward, grabbed Nathaniel by the collar, and pinned him against the wall.
This made the act even more realistic.
Nathaniel was stunned, not understanding what was happening.
Edgar winked at him and indicated that Caitlyn and Lucas were watching.
Nathaniel, quick-witted, instantly understood Edgar's meaning, especially since he knew what kind of people Caitlyn and Lucas were.
"I never denied it! It's Nolan who's incredibly stupid!" Nathaniel, a professional actor, performed so well that even Edgar almost believed it and nearly acted for real.
Amelia quickly pulled Edgar back.
Caitlyn and Lucas were already terrified.
If the child wasn't Nolan's, they would completely offend the Cunningham family.
Divorce was a minor issue, but if the Cunningham family sought revenge, that would be a major problem.
"What are you doing?" At the door, Nolan arrived, asking coldly.
The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
"Nolan." Edgar was stunned. Nolan wasn't good at acting, would he blow their cover?
Nolan frowned and glanced at Nathaniel.
Nathaniel instantly took a defensive stance in front of Amelia. "Nolan! The child in Amelia's belly is mine. You have no right to force her to be with you! I advise you to give up!"
Edgar was amazed. No wonder Nathaniel was an actor, his acting was superb.
Nolan coldly looked at Nathaniel and punched him. "Useless, unable to protect her."
In Nolan's view, Nathaniel not only failed to protect Amelia but also caused her to be attacked by online trolls.
"Nolan! What are you doing!" Amelia cried in anger, shielding Nathaniel.
Nolan frowned, seeing Amelia still protecting him.
Edgar, on the side, was so scared he bit his nails. Nolan couldn't really hit him, Nolan indeed couldn't act.
"Just say it, how much do you want!" Nolan angrily looked at Caitlyn. "Name a price, and if you ever bother Amelia again, I'll make your son disappear. Try me if you don't believe it." Nolan was full of anger, his aura terrifyingly strong.
Caitlyn's face turned pale with fear, and Lucas hid behind her.
If they took the money now, after Nolan knew the child wasn't his, it wouldn't be simple to return it in the future, they might be charged with extortion.
She didn't care, with the Cunningham family's power, they could really make Lucas disappear.
"No... no more." Caitlyn stammered. "You two handle your own matters. Amelia, we are no longer mother and daughter. Don't come to us for anything in the future."
With that, Caitlyn dragged Lucas away.
Just like that, they severed ties? Edgar raised an eyebrow. Not spending a penny, it felt a bit uneasy.
So, while Nolan and Nathaniel were at odds, Edgar chased after them.
"I'll give you five million dollars, consider it buying out this mother-daughter relationship. You've raised Amelia for over twenty years, this should be enough. If you ever bother her again..." Edgar's voice was low.
Caitlyn trembled with fear. "No..."
"Take it, my assistant will find you tomorrow," Edgar warned.
Caitlyn didn't dare speak. If she took this money, she would feel uneasy.
Edgar knew Caitlyn was scared, afraid of having to return the money, so she wouldn't easily bother Amelia again.
