Amelia had to reluctantly agree

Charlotte had already witnessed Amelia's prowess, and she quickly said, "No, no, I wouldn't think like that."

However, Amelia said, "Charlotte, even though you're the adopted daughter of our family, we've been living together for so long that I already consider you my own sister."

"So, Dad, how can you let me slack off while making Charlotte work so hard? Besides, my health has improved a lot, and it's not good to keep hiding at home all the time." 

"How about this, let's both go to the district store, take over together, and work together. Whoever does well will ultimately become the manager of the district store, how about that?"

Benjamin actually pondered this seriously and felt that his daughter made a lot of sense.

Frederick even smiled appreciatively, "I think Amelia's idea is good."

Bella didn't quite understand, but as long as Amelia didn't suffer now, it was fine.

Charlotte, on the other hand, was a bit anxious. She had already discussed with Benjamin about letting her be in charge of the district store, and now suddenly, inexplicably, she was going to run it with Amelia, making her uneasy.

Most importantly, this Amelia was becoming more and more unpredictable, and Charlotte really didn't want any more variables!

She was a bit eager to say something to Benjamin, but Amelia over there had the housekeeping robot turn on the restaurant's big screen, broadcasting today's important news.

The host was a very beautiful Therianthrope, with one rabbit ear standing up and one drooping, making people want to pinch them.

She excitedly announced, "Our Federation Empire's bravest, greatest First Commander, Ethan, is actually not wearing a mask anymore! Previously, there were many speculations about his appearance among the people, and the result surprised everyone!"

Then, the host interviewed several people, all of them very excited because they had not expected the First Commander to be... so good-looking! Handsome enough to make people weak in the knees!

And the Johnson family, who were eating at the moment, were all stunned when they saw Ethan Commander's unmasked appearance on the screen!

There was a clatter.

The chopsticks in Frederick's hand fell to the ground, and he looked at his granddaughter with a complicated expression... Amelia immediately buried her head and ate silently, avoiding the confrontation with her grandfather's gaze for the time being.

Only Bella in the Johnson family was relatively calm now. When she first found out the truth, she was also shocked, but now seeing her husband and the others more shocked, she felt a strange sense of balance in her heart.

However, the one who reacted the most was Charlotte.

Charlotte's lips twitched, and she tightly gripped the chopsticks, the force seeming like she wanted to break them!

She turned her head to look at Amelia, her eyes widened, forgetting her usual disguise, and she tentatively asked, "The person you married that day... is a relative of this Commander?"

Charlotte wasn't present at the time, but she watched the wedding video later.

She had been looking forward to seeing Amelia make a fool of herself, but who would have thought that Amelia would change grooms at the last minute, and most importantly, that groom turned out to be even more handsome than Alexander!

Amelia was a bit regretful that she had married Ethan in a daze that day, but now seeing Charlotte's expression, she felt quite satisfied.

She picked up the lemonade next to her and took a sip, leisurely saying, "Not a relative."

Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief; he just looked like him, that's all.

She forced a dry smile, "He just looks a bit similar."

The next moment, Amelia said leisurely, "Guess a little bolder, it's not just similar, it's him."

Charlotte: !!!!!!

Now, no one could eat anymore. Frederick said with a complicated look, "What exactly is going on?"

Amelia glanced at Charlotte, "Isn't it that Alexander was held up and couldn't come back for the wedding? And then... I met the Commander, fell in love at first sight, and we got married."

Frederick squinted, feeling that his granddaughter's words were a bit dubious.

Benjamin said, "Amelia, why didn't you say earlier? We've neglected Commander Ethan, will he be angry?"

Amelia continued to fabricate, "Oh, it's fine, he happened to have official business, so he left first. We agreed to meet in the First Star District in a few days."

Benjamin nodded, "Hmm, I'll take you there on the first day of school."

He hadn't planned to accompany Amelia, but now it was different; after all, his son-in-law was the First Commander!

Finally, Frederick decided that the whole family would go out together to send Amelia off that day!

Amelia's lips twitched, "I'm not sure if Ethan will be available that day. How about I contact him in advance and ask?"

Frederick nodded solemnly, "Yes, it's a good idea to ask in advance, after all, he's a very busy person."

Amelia had to reluctantly agree.

Anyway, she could just say later that Ethan didn't have time.

But when she was about to go back to her room, she was intercepted by Charlotte.

Charlotte's eyes were red, and she gritted her teeth, "Were you already with the Commander earlier? Did you never want to marry Alexander in the first place?"

If that was the case, then why did she bother with that trick in the first place?

Amelia looked at Charlotte's angry face and couldn't help but smile.

"So, my dear sister, I really have to thank you!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll tell Alexander?"

"If I were afraid, would I tell you?"

Amelia turned and left, leaving Charlotte standing there, her face getting darker and darker.

If Amelia really loved Alexander to death, she would probably be miserable now, crying all the time.

But no, even though she had been jilted, she had turned the situation around in the blink of an eye.

Now the only trouble was, what did the Commander really think?

Oh well, let's take it one step at a time.

But reality proved that taking it one step at a time was difficult. Amelia's microcomputer immediately rang, it was a call from Alexander.

This was Alexander's second communication attempt; obviously, he must have recognized Ethan too.

Amelia didn't want to pick up.

Alexander's message came through.

Alexander: If you don't pick up, I'll come to your house right now!

Amelia felt that Alexander had never been so enthusiastic about her before, so why was he suddenly so persistent?

She answered, "What's the matter?"

"Is the news true?"

"What news?"

"The news about the First Commander! Is he really the person you married that day?" Alexander felt a huge blow, and at the same time, he felt deeply saddened and indignant.

Amelia should have been his wife! Alexander felt that his feelings had been deceived!

For the past few days, his plan had been to wait for Amelia to calm down, then divorce that person, and he would be willing to marry her again.

If not, he would wait until both of them were at Beylincoln University and then communicate slowly.

There would always be a solution, after all, Amelia loved him so much.

But who could have imagined that the groom would turn out to be the First Commander!

Amelia sneered, "Alexander, do you have the right to be angry with me? How come, you were allowed to stand me up on our wedding day, but I'm not allowed to marry someone else? Have some dignity, will you?"

"Amelia! Didn't you say you loved me before! Why can't you forgive me for such a small thing!"
