Chapter 521 Unexpected Strike
Chapter 521 Unexpected Strike
"Thank you for your reminder. I've already woken up from my dream, so you have nothing to worry about." Amy glanced at Donovan and added lightly, "I've broken up with Noah and won't meet him again. Please pretend you haven't seen me if you bump into me in the future. I don't want to see you, either."
Although Donovan was from a wealthy family, he was particularly annoying when he spoke, just like a rat or a cockroach, and she simply couldn't stand him!
"You broke up with Noah?" Donovan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Did Noah finally come to his senses and dump you?"
He turned to Rebecca and said, "See? I was right! With a gem like you by his side, Noah won't be so blind as to be attracted by those lifeless eyes. Finally, he came to his senses and broke up with this b*tch!"
In reply, Rebecca merely smiled softly and didn't say anything, but the crinkle in her eyes showed that she was in a very good mood at the moment.
Indeed, she was in high spirits. She had returned to the country this time upon the instructions of her elders because the tables had turned. Back then, the Ellis Family's company encountered a crisis, but the Richardsons refused to lend a hand for fear of being implicated by them and even ordered her to break up with Noah before sending her abroad to study.
Several years had since passed, and Noah single-handedly revived the Ellis Family's company, turning the tide and raising the Ellis Family to the high ranks again. Now, the Ellis Family's company was thriving, and the Richardson Family's company was facing a crisis instead.
Marriage was about joining forces, and in the Richardsons' current situation, Rebecca didn't have the chance to marry into a wealthy family.
Only Noah.
If he still loved her, he wouldn't mind helping the Richardsons with his family's connections and capital, and with that, the Richardsons could overcome the crisis they were facing. Therefore, she had returned to the country with a mission this time—she must reconcile with Noah and marry him.
Before her return, she thought that this mission was going to be a piece of cake because Noah liked her and they had dated for years in the past. Although Noah's personality was a little aloof, he had always been compliant and caring toward her.
They were once deeply in love, and if her mother hadn't threatened her with suicide, she wouldn't have broken up with Noah. But now, her parents had agreed to let her marry Noah, and she was overjoyed at their approval.
However, little did she know that after several years, things had changed.
She thought that Noah would still love her deeply and wholeheartedly. As long as she returned to him, she could easily win back his heart and be with him again, but who would have guessed that Noah didn't want to break up with his girlfriend?
Although her friends told her that Noah didn't care that much about his girlfriend, that she was just a plaything that he would break up with once he got tired of her, he remained indifferent toward Rebecca
no matter how many times she tried to approach him.
As a woman, she could sense with her instincts that Noah genuinely liked that woman named Amy Atkinson, and an impending sense of crisis rose in her heart.
She must get Noah to marry her!
Given the current situation of the Richardson Family, she couldn't find a better man than him, and if the crisis in her family couldn't be resolved, they would go bankrupt. Noah was capable of saving his family, but not her; she didn't have that capability, nor did the other members of the Richardson Family.
Noah was the only lifeline she could hold on to, and the only ray of hope for her family, so she would never give him up!
When Rebecca learned that Noah had made plans with Amy to go on a trip on Amy's birthday, she used all the tricks up her sleeves to keep him by her side the day before. In addition to that, she played with words and made Donovan send Amy photos of her and Noah together.
If Amy had any shard of self-awareness, she would break up with Noah after seeing the pictures. On the other hand, there was nothing she could do if Amy was a vain woman; even if Noah had countless other affairs, Amy wouldn't hesitate to say yes as long as he was willing to marry her.
Fortunately for Rebecca, Amy wasn't that kind of woman because she chose to break up with Noah.
Great, I can finally return to Noah's side! Rebecca gloated gleefully.
After drifting abroad for several years, she had come to realize that Noah was the most suitable man
for her.
There weren't many people in this world who were rich, good-looking, and talented, and she had even fewer chances to meet them. Among those who possessed all these qualities and genuinely loved her, Noah was the only one she had met.
A few years ago, she was young and ignorant, too confident for her own good. She thought that with her looks and talents, even if she broke up with Noah, she could find a man better than him, but reality taught her a harsh lesson.
After wasting several years, she still couldn't find anyone better than him. Hence, no matter what, she must hold on to Noah's heart. Even if she had to go through hardships and overcome obstacles, she had to marry Noah!
Now, Noah and Amy had broken up, and finally, she saw hope, her heart filling with excitement and joy.
Seeing her joy, Donovan said with a smile, "Congratulations, Rebecca. Noah finally came to his senses and dumped that boring girl."
Amy chuckled and glanced at him disdainfully, "I just called you an elementary school student, but I owe an apology to elementary school students because you're not even an elementary school student. At least, elementary school students can understand human language, but you can't!"
A frown spread across Donovan's face. "What's the matter with you today? Why are you so hot- tempered? Oh, I see..." A sudden realization dawned upon him, and he nodded "You clung to Noah
without shame, but he dumped you in the end. So, you must be feeling upset and need someone to vent your anger."
"Hmph!" Amy sneered, "Donovan, if I remember correctly, the reason why you're always waiting on Noah is that your family's company is a subsidiary of his grandfather's company, right?"
Donovan scowled. "So what if it is? What does it have to do with you?"
His family's company was a subsidiary of Noah's grandfather's company and they relied on that for their livelihood, which was why he had been Noah's sidekick since childhood.
When he was young, his parents told him to please Noah, but he wouldn't do it. However, as time went by and he saw that Noah was better than him in every aspect, he sincerely accepted Noah as his leader.
If Amy married Noah, he would have to show her some respect. After all, she would be the mistress of the Ellis Family, but now, Amy and Noah Ellis had broken up, and he had no reason to fear or respect her.
"Is Noah's grandfather's company in trouble?" Amy looked at him with a faint smile. "If that company goes bankrupt, your family won't end up well either, right?"
The scowl on Donovan's face turned uglier. "What are you trying to say? Do you want to see us fail? Don't worry, even if our company goes bankrupt, we'll still be a thousand times better than a penniless girl like you! Moreover, we've already found a solution to the crisis, and it will be resolved soon. You won't see us fail!"
"Is that so? Was the solution you mentioned asking Ewan Bennett for help?" Amy raised her eyebrows. "But Ewan Bennett is my brother."
