The Heiress They Couldn't Break (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 657

By the end of the day, almost everyone knew. It started inside their circle and spread quickly until even people with no connection to them had heard the rumor.

Amelia used to be a star. Back when she was at her peak, she stepped in to take over the Nygard Group and slowly faded out of the entertainment industry. Many fans never got over it. Her diehard fans had stayed with her all along.

Now that she was getting engaged to Jeremy, they came out in force, loud and proud.

[I knew I picked the right ship. They went from being an on-screen couple to a real-life couple, and now they're getting married. This is everything! Congratulations!]

[I've followed Amelia from the beginning. Seeing her finally find happiness makes me so happy I could cry.]

[I'm so jealous. Amelia found an incredible man. They're perfect together. They're a match made in heaven.]

Faithful and casual fans alike were genuinely happy for them. Even older relatives who weren't interested in celebrity news saw their photos and said, "What a beautiful pair."

For a while, there were only blessings and praise. Then the tone shifted.

Almost overnight, the comments were filled with dissent, criticism, and outright attacks.

[She's not worthy of Mr. Curran. She was engaged to someone from the Desters, but he broke up with her. What right does she have to climb higher?]

[Amelia has so much dirt on her. She doesn't even get along with her family. I heard she ran away for years. Who knows what she was doing all that time?]

[I don't trust her. She came from the entertainment industry. She fought with her brother and parents. She forced out her adopted sister. She's a total manipulator.]

It was the same old story, the same few points exaggerated until they seemed monstrous. Anyone with half a brain could guess where it came from. It was so transparent it was almost insulting.

Amelia didn't even bother engaging. None of it could touch her life now. She closed the page and went back to her work.

But just because she didn't care didn't mean that everyone else could stay calm.

Marcelo, Miguel, and Maxwell saw it and couldn't tolerate it for a second, and even Jeremy saw it.

Jeremy was the first to respond. He had his assistant draft a formal statement, released under his and the company's names, that was clear and unambiguous. The statement declared his feelings for Amelia, his commitment to protecting her, and the Currans' full support and recognition.
