The Heiress They Couldn't Break novel Chapter 9

Chapter 9 Finally Got Something to Control Her

When Gianna came back, she probably caught a cold, because she got a high fever that night.

Her whole body was burning, and she kept talking nonsense.

The Nygards had been a little upset about what happened with her this time.

But seeing her sick, everyone started to feel sorry for her.

In the end, the matter was left alone.

Gianna had planned to trap Amelia, but instead, she only ended up causing trouble for herself. She was furious. Especially when she found out that Amelia had somehow gotten close to Jeremy, that made her even more jealous.

She couldn’t believe that bitch Amelia had such luck.

In the living room, the Nygards were also talking about it.

Maxwell complained, “Amelia went too far this time, pushing Gianna into the pool. She’s totally out of hand.”

Emery frowned and added, “Now she’s sticking close to Jeremy, thinking she has someone powerful backing her.” Marcelo said in a cold voice, “Jeremy is probably just fooling around. There’s no way he’s serious about her.”

Men understand each other best.

With Jeremy’s status and wealth, he could have any girl he wanted.

Miguel reminded them, “But don’t forget, that brat still owns 30% of the company shares. If she sells them to Jeremy, then our company…” He hadn’t finished speaking, but everyone’s eyes went wide.

They hadn’t thought of that at all.

This was a big problem!

Raymond slammed the table with his hand. “Go find where that brat is living. Bring her back, even if we have to force her.”

“Dad, calm down. I already sent someone to check,” Marcelo replied.

Just as he finished speaking, his assistant sent over Amelia’s address.

He looked at the message and frowned.

“Cloudspire Estate. That was one of the most expensive neighborhoods. Only super–rich or powerful people could live there. Even the Nygards would need connections to buy a house there.

How on earth did Amelia afford a place like that?

Was Maxwell right? Did she really have a sugar daddy?

And was that person Jeremy?

He handed the address to the others, and the whole room went quiet.

Raymond’s face turned red with rage.

“Call that brat back right now. She’s just embarrassing us!”

At that moment, Gianna came down the stairs. She had overheard everything from upstairs.

She walked closer and spoke softly, “I saw Amelia at the party. I tried to ask her to come home, so she wouldn’t embarrass us. But she refused. Maybe only if Marcelo shows her the company contract and makes her sign it, she might come back.”

Her words instantly reminded Marcelo

It hit him. How could he have forgotten something so important?

When Gianna graduated, she had always dreamed of becoming a celebrity. Being a loving brother, Marcelo started an entertainment company and made her the first female artist.

At that time, Amelia had just returned after disappearing for years. Marcelo didn’t want anyone to think he was playing favorites, and he hoped the sisters would support each other, so he signed Amelia, too.

But all the best chances went to Gianna, and she became a C–list actress with some fame.

Amelia only got the jobs Gianna didn’t want.

After missing for so long, Amelia longed for family. Once she came back, she tried hard to please everyone in the family.

She never said no to anything and hid her true talent, and did whatever she could to make them happy.

She thought they were family, so there’s no reason to fight over anything.

But none of that made the Nygards appreciate her.

Marcelo even made her sign a contract. At first, it was just a formality. Now, it had become the perfect tool to control her.

Marcelo’s eyes turned cold. “Gianna’s right. That contract is still in our hands. She signed a ten–year contract with a penalty of 500 million if she breaks it. Unless Jeremy pays that much, she can’t leave our family. She’ll have to follow the company’s orders and earn money for us.”

Raymond finally relaxed a little. “Exactly. If she steps out of line, we’ll sue her for breach of contract! Or make her give up her shares to pay the penalty!”

Gianna lowered her head, smirking, her eyes glinting with satisfaction.

Amelia, you think you can turn things around just because someone is backing you?

Too bad your contract is still in our hands!

A sly look appeared in Gianna’s eyes.

She had always known the contract was full of traps, not just the huge penalty, but all those sneaky “extra clauses.”

Miguel said nervously, “Marcelo, isn’t this too much? After all, she’s still..

As a lawyer, he knew just how unfair this contract was.

Marcelo interrupted sharply, “She brought this on herself!”

Now, that contract was the key to keeping Amelia under control!

Emery looked a little nervous. “But… if we push her too hard, won’t she make a bigger scene?”

Marcelo didn’t care. “A scene? She wouldn’t dare. She signed the contract herself. It’s do?

right there on paper. What could she

Back then, he hadn’t thought much about it. He just wanted things to be easy to handle.

And that fool Amelia hadn’t even read it carefully before signing.

Truly, God was on my

side!

Let’s see what Amelia can do now.

Raymond said, “Send her a message from a different number right away. If she doesn’t come back tomorrow to deal with this, we’ll sue her using the contract.”

Marcelo went to set it up immediately.

Meanwhile, at Cloudspire Estate.

Jeremy arrived for his second treatment.

He stared at Amelia for a long moment. “Amelia, I still can’t figure you out.”
