Chapter 657 Amelia Asks Nolan for Money

"Nolan, don't push it," Nathaniel warned.

Nolan grabbed Nathaniel by the collar. "I don't care what your plans are for her. She's not leaving with you today."

"Nolan! Who do you think you are?" Nathaniel snapped.

"Who do I think I am?" Nolan sneered, shoving Nathaniel away. "You tell me."

Just then, Nathaniel's phone rang. "Nathaniel, where are you? Get to the office now," his agent said, sounding stressed.

It was clear Elijah had contacted Nathaniel's agency.

Nathaniel shot Nolan a furious look.

Amelia glanced at Nathaniel, then lowered her eyes and got out of the car, holding the kitten. She didn't want to cause Nathaniel any more trouble.

"Amelia, don't worry about it. I'm not scared of him," Nathaniel said, trying to pull her back. "Come on, get in the car."

Amelia shook her head. She couldn't be as reckless as before.

With her eyes reddening, Amelia stood next to Nolan, clutching the kitten. She had no idea what Nolan was planning. But she didn't have the strength to fight back, so she'd wait until he got tired of her and let her go.

She knew Nolan well enough: if she defied him, he'd do everything to win. But if she went along with him, clung to him, and annoyed him, he'd soon get bored.

"You're a real piece of work," Nathaniel said angrily, glaring at Nolan.

Nolan didn't respond, just glanced at Amelia. "Come with me."

Amelia lowered her head and took a few steps with the cardboard box, then stopped to look at the dirty, trembling kitten in her arms. It pained her to think Nolan, with his obsessive fixation on cleanliness, would never allow her to keep the kitten. Even if she managed to smuggle it home, he would undoubtedly throw it out.

Nathaniel was too busy; the company had suddenly signed him up for a bunch of contracts before his current one expired. He didn't have time to take care of the kitten either. That left Amelia with few options. The best she could hope for was to leave the kitten in the neighborhood, praying someone kind-hearted would adopt it.
