Upon learning that Amelia Linton was coming over, Callix Linton’s first reaction was that she was here to cause trouble again. Worried that she might say something unpleasant to Lily Turner or do something inappropriate, he decided to let Easton Holmes take Lily upstairs. He couldn’t afford to take this risk. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Amelia Linton could guess these concerns, but she couldn’t be sure whether Callix Linton’s words were true or false. She chose to believe that what her old father said was true. "Oh, then I’ll come to see the two of them some other day. I’ve brought some nutritional supplements for you and Lily. Remember to take them."

As she spoke, she raised her hand to point at the things she had brought with her.

"We have everything we need at home. You don’t need to waste money on those things," Callix Linton said, following Amelia Linton’s pointing finger to the items she had just placed on the ground. Indeed, he saw nutritional supplements meant for pregnant women.

Amelia Linton didn’t quite agree, but she didn’t argue as she usually would. She just softly replied, "What’s at home is at home; I still need to buy them."

Her hands unconsciously rubbed together, reflecting a sense of cautious nervousness.

"How are things with Fabian now?" Callix Linton noticed Amelia Linton’s fidgeting hands and the nervousness in her heart. He changed the topic, no longer discussing the supplements.

When her old father brought up the situation with Fabian Holmes, Amelia Linton’s eyes darkened suddenly. "Just the same."

Her heart felt heavy because of Fabian Holmes, but on the surface, she had to maintain a calm demeanor.

"What do you mean by just the same? If you really can’t make it work with him, then get a divorce. Staying together unwillingly isn’t good for anyone," Callix Linton had always known that Amelia Linton and Fabian Holmes didn’t have a good marital relationship. He had long thought about them getting a divorce, but as an elder, he found it inappropriate to interfere in his children’s marriages.

But now, seeing their relationship becoming more and more discordant and heading towards a worse state, he felt that if he didn’t speak up, they might reach an irreparable stage.

Amelia Linton had long known that her old father didn’t think much of Fabian Holmes and had many opinions about their marriage. She wasn’t surprised at all when her father mentioned divorce.

"I understand. I’ll consider it," Amelia Linton had resolved to break all ties with Fabian Holmes and Theodore Holmes once she learned about Theodore’s online slander against Easton Holmes. After her discharge, she immediately asked Fabian for a divorce.

However, to her surprise, Fabian Holmes, who had always wanted the divorce, refused to agree now. No matter how much she argued or begged, he wouldn’t consent to divorce her.

Callix Linton wasn’t aware of this situation. Seeing Amelia Linton like this, he thought she was hesitating, still wanting to cling to Fabian Holmes. "What is there to consider? That man is no good for you. Divorce him quickly. You can come back here to live after the divorce or stay with Easton."

He had already thought about her future arrangements. After all, she was his daughter, and he couldn’t bring himself to abandon her.

"Dad..."

Amelia Linton was so deeply moved by her father’s words that tears flowed like a flood from her eyes. She could only utter a single word, "Dad," before choking up and being unable to say anything more.
