Chapter 150: A Strange Relationship

The morning sun cast a warm glow over the vast Bennett estate and Amelie turned her face toward it for a moment, inhaling the refreshing scent of rain that had just stopped.

The gentle breeze tugged at her hair, lifting a few loose strands as she returned to reviewing the spreadsheets on her laptop. Just like always, the mornings in the mansion were quiet and serene but today, her mind could not find either peace or focus. 

Liam had dropped a bombshell on her earlier that morning. He had invited Einar Ingvarsson to stay with them while he was in the country. The news had caught her completely off guard.

Einar, staying in their home? The very idea seemed absurd. She had immediately asked Liam why Einar couldn't just stay at the Emerald Hotel like any other visiting executive. After all, considering the tense confrontation between Liam and Einar in her office just months ago, it seemed like a clear recipe for disaster.
