Sweet Divorce

“Mom, are you okay?”

Zoe touched Amelia’s forehead before Rita can even say anything. “Well, it’s not hot. But... but why are you talking nonsense all of a sudden?”

Rita choked because of Zoe’s words and can’t stop coughing.

She secretly touched her forehead and explained to Amelia, “Grandma, don’t be mad. My mom just thought that your decision was a bit too sudden.”

Zoe then realized that she had said something wrong and immediately chimed in, “Right, mom. Your decision is too abrupt. I just can’t handle it all of sudden and was too straightforward. Don’t be angry with me.”

Amelia would be so mad before if she heard what Zoe said, but she had got to see the true colors of a lot of people and things after going through so much.

Let’s just take Zoe and Rose as an example. The former was kind and honest while the latter was clever and shrewd.

She would always be fooled by Rose’s flatteries before and would hate the clumsy Zoe who would never try to please her.

But Zoe turned out to be the one who was always by her side and took care of her when she had that car accident.

Amelia finally learned that time would reveal a man’s heart and misfortunes would test the sincerity of friends.

So she didn’t really mind Zoe’s words, knowing that she didn’t actually mean it, “I’m not mad nor muddle-headed. I’m serious. I really think Rita should be the one to manage the Brown Group.”

Rita and Zoe were both shocked by Amelia’s speech,

“Well, don’t look at me like I’m insane.” Amelia smiled and explained, “I’ve really thought this through, I can only count on Rita in this whole family.”

Amelia used to hold grudges against Rita before, but now, she saw her as life-saver.

After all, Liam was her strong backing at the moment.

The Browns would be sure to prosper with Liam’s help.

Shrewd as Amelia, she sure knew what was the best for the Browns.

Since Charlotte can’t be saved now, she had to protect the Browns.

She got to keep one of them.

Rita naturally didn’t believe that Amelia had thought this through, she knew perfectly well what she was up to.
