When Amelie arrived at the riverside opposite Starlight Media, she was stopped by a young lady. Then, she nodded without saying anything and glanced at the familiar figure not far away. Even though the other person was only a few feet away, she could sense an air of superiority emanating from that other person, which made her uneasy.

As was her custom, she conveyed her emotions solely through her facial expression without further explanation. Simply lowering her gaze, she could make anyone feel small and vulnerable.

Nevertheless, Amelie still felt oppressed despite being used to her behavior.

I do not believe she will sign the agreement so quickly. My initial assumption is that it will be difficult to convince her to relinquish custody of her daughter to me.
