Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 220

Amelia was actually faking unconsciousness. But… Why was she opening her eyes to watch the scene unfold? This was truly... hard to comment on.

Camille narrowed her eyes at Daniel. "Daniel!"

"The Shadowspire Syndicate? You people are as annoying as maggots." Daniel shook his head, and that remark undoubtedly struck a nerve in Camille.

What did he mean?

Was he saying she was something that disgusting? Unforgivable!

Thinking of this, Camille gritted her teeth and glared at Daniel, rebuking sharply, "You've killed my people time and time again. This time, you'll pay the price!"

Camille gathered energy in her hands, aiming straight at Daniel.

Just as Daniel was fending off the attack casually, Amelia, who had been playing dead, suddenly jumped up. "Mr. Ashcroft! Be careful! I'll protect you!"

Now things were a mess. Daniel dodged slightly, causing Camille's attack to land directly on Amelia.

Fabric flew everywhere.

Daniel glanced down, only to see Amelia's uncovered body.

"This young lady really is something else!" Daniel thought.

"How shameless!" Camille cursed through gritted teeth.

Daniel was speechless. This wasn't his fault! His attack would have blocked Camille's strike, but Amelia's sudden movement threw everything off balance.

Camille had no way of defending against Daniel's attack, so it struck her. It ripped half of her clothes apart, revealing an eye-catching sight.

Daniel swore to the heavens—this was absolutely not intentional.

Under the dim, hazy light, Camille—the icy queen—clutched her chest. Her smooth, delicate skin was exposed.

Amelia, half-undressed, had completely lost consciousness this time.

It was practically impossible not to misunderstand the situation.

Now, every time Amelia lifted her arms, the loose nightgown revealed glimpses of soft, smooth skin through the gaps in the fabric.

Amelia seemed completely unaware, scanning the room until she spotted Charlene. Her eyes immediately lit up with excitement. "Ms. Geller! Hello! Can I get your autograph? I'm a huge fan!"

Charlene smiled and nodded. "That would be my pleasure. You can have it anytime."

"Yay!" Amelia cheered, raising her arms in delight.

Daniel nearly spat out his drink, causing Charlene to glare at him.

"What?" Amelia blinked in confusion.

Daniel waved a hand. "Nothing! Just choked on my water. Uh, Ms. Quinn, about the thing in your trunk…"

Amelia smacked her forehead. "Oh, right! I almost forgot I needed to take care of that! Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Ashcroft! I'll be back after I handle it!"

With that, she jumped up and dashed outside.
