Chapter 59

Everyone got into Jordy's car, with Davin driving until they reached a cluster of upscale houses near the heart of town.

At first, Amelia believed the elegant house she was seeing belonged to Jordy, but as she stepped inside,the familiar touches instantly reminded her of Hillside Villa's signature style.

Spotting Amelia's curious glances, Wyatt approached her and asked in a gentle voice,"Do you like it here? If not, I own a few places outside the city, too. We can go there."

Before Amelia could respond, Jordy, who had followed them inside, spoke up.

"You should know, Amelia, I designed all those suburban homes as well. If this place isn't to your liking,you probably won't like any of the others."

Feeling a bit more relaxed surrounded boy the familiar decor, Amelia smiled and said, "I like this place. No wonder it stands out. You really left your mark, Jordy."

Whether she meant it as a genuine compliment or was just playing along, the pride in Jordy's eyes was impossible to miss. He cast Wyatt a smug look and remarked, "See, Amelia knows good design when she sees it."

After a pause, he couldn't resist adding,"1fyou ever want your own place designed, Amelia, I'm your guy.I'll give you a discount."

"A huge discount?" Amelia asked, her eyes sparkling.

"Absolutely, the best deal you'll get!"

The easy conversation between Amelia and Jordy got under Wyatt's skin. He couldn't hide his irritation and said to Jordy, "Shouldn't you be at work? Why do you have so much free time?"

Jordy took Wyatt's jab in stride, not the least bit offended. He changed the subject and suggested Wyatt take Ameliía to Moonlit Restaurant for dinner with him and Holley.

Wyatt had a good relationship with Holley, and knowing that she wanted to treat them to a meal, he agreed.

Once Jordy departed, Wyatt led Amelia upstairs to the master bedroom on the east side.

The soft pinks and pastel accents in the room caught Amelia off guard. She turned to Wyatt with a puzzled look. "What's the story behind this room?"

"This room was prepared just for you. Let me know if anything else you need, and I'll have people get it for you."

Learning the room had been prepared with her in mind, Amelia felt a warmth in her heart.

She surveyed the room and discovered that it had everything she needed. The vanity held her favorite skincare, and the wardrobe was stocked with clothes from the brands she liked.

Only then did it click-Wyatt's words at the airport made perfect sense. She really didn't need to prepare anything for this trip.

Rather than thanking him outright, Amelia simply let her happiness show as she took in the room.

Wyatt caught the spark of happiness in her expression. His own eyes softened as he reminded her to get some rest before heading out and gently closing the door behind him.

Alone in the room, Amelia bounced onto the bed, rolling across the covers with light laughter bubbling from her lips.

Now,she found herself increasingly satisfied with Wyatt as her future husband.

Plans for dinner with Holley's family drifted through her thoughts, prompting her to jump in the shower so she would look refreshed for the meal.

When she had opened the wardrobe earlier, she hadn't looked closely. Now, she noticed a drawer at the bottom filled with neatly arranged lingerie.

Embarrassment colored her cheeks as she snatched one quickly and closed the drawer, even though she knew it wasn't Wyatt himself who had arranged such intimate details.

When she reappeared downstairs, Amelia spotted Wyatt and Davin deep in their work, both looking at their laptops, making her feel a little uneasy. After all, as Wyatt's secretary, she was not working.

The sound of footsteps made Wyatt glance up instinctively, his eyes lighting up when he saw Amelia.

She wore a soft beige blouse and a flowing skirt in the same shade, her entire look radiating quiet elegance.

Wyatt had been working while waiting for Amelia. Seeing her come down, he immediately closed his laptop.

Wyatt and Amelia left the house together, a driver taking them to the restaurant. Davin stayed behind.

Holley had arranged the dinner at Moonlit Restaurant, the most renowned restaurant in Prevda.

As the car pulled up at the entrance, Amelia and Wyatt encountered Jordy, and after a round of greetings,the three of them made their way inside and up the stairs.

The sound of laughter from a young woman spilled out into the hall as they approached their private dining room.Jordy's face shifted at the sound, and he shot Wyatt a quick look.

Noticing that Wyatt's expression was unchanged, Jordy let out the breath he'd been holding.

Inside the private room, all conversation stopped as soon as the trio entered, and the three people already seated inside rose to their feet.

Holley greeted Amelia first, her voice warm and welcoming. "Amelia, it's wonderful to see you again."

As Holley received Amélia's greeting, Wyatt qietly pulled out the chair for Amelia.

Curiosity flickered across the faces of everyone in the private room, each one reacting differently to Wyatt's gesture.

Even though it was a simple act, Wyatt's gesture surprised them, since he was known as the Stewart Group's CEO and had never done something like that for anyone.

Amelia, for her part, didn't miss their reactions. She had previously met Holley in Kretol, so she was familiar with her. And when Wyatt greeted Jeffery Green, she followed, learning that he was Holley's husband. Jeffery smiled in return.

When Amelia turned to greet a young woman at the table, she was met with a frosty stare that seemed to chill the room.

The sharpness of that look caught Amelia off guard. After all, she was certain this was their very first meeting.
