Chapter 481

Chapter 481:

While Sean was still in discussion with Elmore about wedding arrangements, Wyatt had his people lead Sean’s men away and then hurried to find Amelia.

The moment Amelia saw Wyatt approaching, the light in her eyes went cold.

Before he could get close, she turned and headed for the exit.

“Why aren’t you off enjoying yourself with your lovely companion? Why are you chasing after my sister?” Weldon blocked Wyatt’s path.

“Move,” Wyatt snapped, his voice sharp as he glared at Weldon standing in his way.

“You still dare to raise your voice at me after what you did? You p>

Weldon didn’t get to finish before Wyatt shoved him aside and pushed forward.

𝖶ee𝘬𝗅y 𝗋е𝗹e𝘢sе𝘴 𝗈n.с𝗼𝗆

Weldon muttered under his breath, cursing as he watched Wyatt go.

Wyatt caught up to Amelia just as she reached the front door. Gripping her wrist, he spoke urgently. “Amelia, let me explain everything to you p>

“I don’t want to listen p>

Since the night before, Amelia had already given him chance after chance to explain. She had even gone to him herself.

But he hadn’t explained anything.

Right now, her chest burned with anger and hurt.

Not because she had seen him with Nora, but because he had hidden things from her.

To Amelia, they were husband and wife. No matter what the situation was, if he told her the truth, she would stand with him. But Wyatt hadn’t told her anything — not about what happened at the hotel last night, not about today.

Seeing the hurt and disappointment in her face, Wyatt instinctively reached out, ready to pull her into his arms — but then he felt an unfamiliar gaze watching them.

“Amelia, enough,” he suddenly barked.

Startled by Wyatt’s shout, Amelia stopped for a moment. Then her eyes filled with tears as she yanked open the car door to leave.

Weldon, who had followed right behind her, quickly slipped into the car with her.

As the car pulled away, Wyatt’s hands curled into tight fists.

Shepard walked up to him, frowning. “What exactly are you doing p>

Wyatt didn’t respond right away.

Only after he no longer felt that prying gaze on him did he lower his voice and explain something to Shepard.

Whatever Wyatt said caused Shepard’s expression to ease, though his anger didn’t disappear completely. “You should have told Amelia that beforehand p>

“I can’t risk putting her in danger,” Wyatt said.

Sean was a man who would do anything to get what he wanted. Wyatt would rather let Amelia misunderstand his closeness with Nora than allow her to become Sean’s target.

Amelia knew nothing of what Wyatt had told Shepard.
