Chapter 306:
At a private airport in Hans.
Denny, undeterred by the warning glint in Wyatt’s eyes, stretched his arms out with a broad grin. “Amelia, how about a hug p>
Exactly a week had passed since Amelia and Wyatt arrived in Hans. Over the last seven days, Denny had changed more than anyone expected. The injury on his arm lingered, but he had found his spark again. Deep inside, Jasiah couldn’t thank Amelia and Wyatt enough.
Spotting Denny’s wide-open arms, Jasiah quickly lowered his voice and said to him, “Don’t push your luck p>
With stubborn resolve, Denny ignored Jasiah entirely, his eyes fixed on Amelia.
Watching Wyatt’s expression grow stormy, Amelia felt a headache coming on. She was ready to speak, but suddenly found herself wrapped in familiar arms.
Wyatt swept her into an embrace. He looked straight at Denny and said, “Mr. Williamson, maybe you should focus on reclaiming what’s yours instead of wasting your time here. Or do you want to be sent out of the country again p>

Because Denny had saved Amelia, Wyatt had been turning a blind eye to many things over the past few days. Yet when Denny boldly asked for a hug from Amelia right in front of him, that was the final straw.
Denny’s pride took a direct hit from Wyatt’s words, and instantly all traces of his smile disappeared.
Once their brief goodbyes were over, Wyatt led Amelia onto the plane.
Inside, Wyatt still refused to let go, holding Amelia tightly as if nothing else mattered.
Though the bodyguards sat quietly at the back, Amelia’s cheeks warmed with embarrassment. She leaned in and murmured to Wyatt, “Let go of me p>
But Wyatt only pulled her closer after hearing that. His grip tightened gently around her waist.
Something about Wyatt’s jealous streak made Amelia’s heart flutter, and the storm in his gaze made her speak in a softer voice. “Don’t be upset p>
Amelia knew Wyatt well enough to recognize that he responded better to a gentle approach.
As she expected, Wyatt’s features softened, though a trace of stubbornness lingered in his tone. “I’m not upset; I just p>
She didn’t let him finish. Instead, she leaned in and kissed him. That small gesture brought a faint smile to Wyatt’s face, but he put on an act, keeping his expression stern as he said, “One kiss can’t solve this. I p>
Without warning, Amelia kissed him again, perching on Wyatt’s lap and looping her arms around his neck.
Wyatt’s eyes narrowed with intensity. At last, he released his hold, letting a bit of his guard down.
His hand was just about to find Amelia again when she slipped out of his arms with a swift move.
Trying to get up and chase her, Wyatt froze when Amelia shot him a warning look. He then spotted the bodyguards behind her, who suddenly seemed fascinated by the ceiling.
His only option was to drop back into his seat, frustration written across his face as he shot Amelia an aggrieved look.
That expression drew Amelia back to his side. She leaned close and murmured something into his ear.
Whatever she whispered sparked a fire in Wyatt’s eyes. “Amelia, do you really mean it p>
Meeting his gaze, Amelia suddenly felt doubt creep in. Sensing her shift, Wyatt leaned in and said, “Even if you want to back out, it’s too late now p>
An hour slipped by, and soon the plane touched down in Kretol.
Fresh off the flight, Wyatt and Amelia walked out of the airport and found Rocco waiting for them.
Once he spotted them, Rocco strode forward to greet them.
Next to Rocco’s car was the vehicle sent by Kurt.
After a quick exchange with Wyatt, Amelia slid into Rocco’s car.
During the drive, Rocco filled Amelia in on everything that had gone on at the Flynn Group over the past week.
As he wrapped up, worry crept into his tone. “Once people heard about Mr. Flynn getting locked up, everything went haywire. Your stepmother has come to the company several times to cause a scene, saying that you p>
“Saying that I’m heartless?” Amelia finished for him with a cold smile, catching his cautious expression.
There was one thing Ricky had predicted correctly: after the truth about Katrina’s death came out, the Flynn Group’s image would take a hit. Amelia had tried to shield the company by keeping both Ricky’s actions and her real identity under wraps, but her recent trip to Hans had changed her mind. The moment news of Ricky’s arrest broke, the stock price plunged—exactly as she had expected. She and Dalia had already prepared a response.
Thanks to Dalia and Rocco’s steady hands, the Flynn Group avoided any serious crises. But Janessa had been staging loud confrontations at the company entrance, damaging its reputation. Because she was Amelia’s stepmother, security hesitated to act.
Rocco suggested slipping in through the underground parking garage to avoid Janessa, but Amelia refused.
In her view, since Janessa wanted a confrontation, avoiding her would solve nothing. It was better to face her head-on and make it clear she wasn’t afraid.
