Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 26

"No need, just take good care of Grandpa. He's the one who needs treatment the most right now."

With that, Finnian turned and walked away. Kevin let out a wail, pointing at his retreating back and cursing nonstop until he disappeared from view.

Amara felt a chill run through her heart. Last night's unexpected events had left her confused, making her think something between her and Finnian had changed. But how could that be? Clearly, Finnian's heart still belonged to Liliana!

He had stayed virtuous for Liliana last night and took a beating today to protect her honor. What was Amara even fantasizing about?

Suddenly, she felt pathetic. She couldn't keep going on like this.

"Ama, I’m sorry! When that rascal gets back, I'll make sure to give him a piece of my mind, just to make it up to you."

"Grandpa, please don't. Finnian and I aren't meant to be. His heart is with Ms. Porter, and we're just not right for each other. You should start preparing yourself to welcome Ms. Porter."

Watching Amara say this and then walk away, Kevin was left stunned. What's going on? Why was no one listening to him anymore?

As Amara left the main house, her body weary, she felt lost, unsure of where to go.

Finnian had asked Will to resubmit the divorce papers, which meant that while they were still legally married, in every other sense, they weren't.

She couldn't stay at the main house any longer, but she didn't want to go back to Autumn Ridge either. Where could she go?

After thinking for a moment, Amara hailed a cab to Elysia's place, only to find Elysia alone in the living room, completely inebriated.

There were seven or eight empty bottles at Elysia's feet, and she was still drinking. Amara, irritated, grabbed the bottle from her. "What are you doing? Drinking like this, are you trying to ruin yourself?"
