Chapter 9 Thoughts Of Devlin
“Thanks, Dad. You’ll soon see how good my judgment is when it comes to choosing people,” Amberley said, brimming with confidence. “Your judgment? You have the audacity to say that. Tell me. What’s wrong with Devlin?” Upon hearing this, Florian immediately started to confront Amberley, puffing his cheeks and glaring at her. Had it not been for his belief in keeping benefits within his own circle, he truly would not have wanted to marry Amberley off to Devlin. In any case, Amberley was spoiled rotten by him. “He’s perfect in every way. I was just blind in the past. But now, my eyes are clear and bright. I can see everything clearly.” From now on, no one, no matter how crafty or devious, would be able to take advantage of her. “You’ve always had a way with words, spinning things as you see fit. I hope you truly appreciate what a good man Devlin is and live a good life with him.” Florian tapped Amberley’s forehead, hoping she had truly grown mature. “Dad, don’t worry,” Amberley said nonchalantly. “I’ll make sure to live a good life with him, and in time, I’ll give you a chubby grandchild.” “You… Oh my…” Florian was at a loss for words when it came to his own daughter. She always acted like she hadn’t grown up yet. While Amberley was busy delivering food, Devlin, with a cold expression, silently began searching through the vacant rooms of the mansion, one by one, for the new room Amberley had arranged for him. After searching high and low, he still couldn’t find where his clothes were. Devlin could only retreat to his room in silence, privately speculating in his heart – where was Amberley planning to banish him to? Unbeknownst to Amberley, Devlin was still at home, deeply concerned about his new room. After having a meal with her father, she watched as he dialed the HR department to bring Igor on board. Only then did she feel at ease to return home. Upon receiving the notification, the HR department promptly got in touch with Igor. Igor was at home, sorting through his and his son’s belongings. He had made up his mind to finalize the divorce sooner and move out with his son. He felt it was high time this family fell apart. The way Hannah Lindell was so vain and reckless disgusted him. Ring! Ring! Ring! A series of phone rings cut through his thoughts. Upon seeing an unfamiliar number calling, Igor didn’t think much of it, assuming it was yet another telemarketing call for loans or insurance. Just as he was about to hang up, against all odds, he unexpectedly answered the call. He thought back to Amberley. Could it be possible that this was a phone call from the HR department of Tausend Group? “May I speak with Mr. Igor Xenakis? This is Bryce Ludford, manager of the HR department from Tausend Group. Our chairman….” Upon hearing this, Igor was overcome with elation. His luck was finally turning around. That young lady was indeed the heiress of Tausend Group. “Son, I’m going to change jobs. Soon, we’ll be living in a bigger house.” After hanging up the phone, Igor excitedly lifted his son high into the air. Any man who felt belittled by his wife, deemed useless and accused of messing around, would invariably dream of a day when he could rise above and make that woman regret her words for the rest of her life. Igor deeply felt that his opportunity was finally arriving. He was going to end this marriage the next day. Upon hearing the sound of a car pulling up in the courtyard, Devlin could distinguish it based on the unique roar of different engines. He quickly recognized that it was Amberley’s car. She had returned. With a lunchbox in hand, Amberley headed into the kitchen, ready to start washing it. “Amberley, leave it be. I will wash it. Don’t get your hands dirty.” Yvette quickly intervened when she saw what was happening. “No worries. It’s just a lunch box.” With a smile, Amberley declined. After all, her hand was just as capable. She thought it would be best to hire a housekeeper for the house, so Yvette wouldn’t have to work so hard. When there was nothing pressing, Yvette could go out for tea with her close friends, engage in friendly chats, and truly experience the life of a high-society lady. “Your hands are delicate; using dish soap can easily harm them. Unlike me, who is old and has thick, rough skin that can withstand it.” From a distance, Yvette approached. Seeing that Amberley had already started washing the lunch box, she couldn’t help but start to chatter. “Mom, how are you old? Dress up nicely tomorrow, and others might mistake you for my sister,” Amberley teased, making Yvette laugh. “You’re talking nonsense,” she said. “If that were true, it would make me some old witch and completely mess up our familial hierarchy.” Yvette was a traditionally minded woman with conservative values. She had always adhered to the traditional virtue of dedicating herself to her family and educating her children. Even after marrying Florian, she rarely accompanied him to social events, unless it was absolutely necessary to attend. After marrying Florian, she devotedly cared for her husband’s daughter. Even though the girl showed no fondness for her, she bore no resentment. She always thought that the child was too young and naive and chose not to hold it against her. Perhaps it was her inherently kind nature that had Lucas and his wife worried about Amberley being swayed. As a result, she distanced herself from them, prompting them to actively strive to drive a wedge in their relationship. “What do you mean by ‘old witch’? Nowadays, everyone’s really into self-care. There are many people in their sixties and seventies who look incredibly young. I have a day off tomorrow. I’ll take you out for a beauty treatment.” Amberley had plans to take Yvette out for a beauty treatment and to help her dress up nicely. Every woman has a love for beauty, but some are forced by life’s circumstances to give it up. Upon hearing this, Yvette merely chuckled, not taking it too seriously. The fact that Amberley had such intentions was more than enough for her. All she wished for was to live a peaceful life with Devlin. After washing the lunch box, Amberley returned to her room. She remembered that she had only taken a three-day leave, and she would have to go back to school the day after tomorrow. I better hurry up and flip through my textbooks. Otherwise, once I go back to school, it would be like groping in the dark. After being reincarnated, she decided to thoroughly learn her financial management skills. This way, she and the company finances wouldn’t be deceived by others in the future. In her previous life, she was foolish enough to follow Sherman abroad. In order to be with him, she even studied information technology, a major she didn’t like. After returning to her home country, she worked tirelessly to develop new software for Sherman’s company. Shockingly, they secretly embezzled all the money from Tausend Group. Devlin sat in silence in his room. He harbored a conflicting desire, yearning for Amberley to appear in his room like she did in the morning, yet at the same time, he hoped she wouldn’t. He felt torn inside. The sight of Amberley gave him a secret thrill, yet he couldn’t bear the thought of her humbling herself just to see him. Caught in an unsolvable dilemma, Devlin could only use the excuse of going downstairs for a drink to check on what Amberley was doing. He maneuvered his wheelchair downstairs, his expression as usual. “Why did you come down?” Upon seeing her son descend the stairs, Yvette was overtaken by curiosity and couldn’t help but ask him. Devlin pushed the wheelchair toward the kitchen, muttering under his breath, “Water.” He surveyed the area downstairs, but he couldn’t spot Amberley anywhere. Could it be that she had already gone upstairs and returned to her room? Yet he had to put on a performance, so he could only continue to pretend to pour himself a glass of water. After taking a few sips, he casually rinsed the cup under the faucet and then placed it back without any fuss.
