Chapter 1166
When Love Comes Late
âSo what?â Neville cut her off, his tone firm.
âI already told Susie yesterday.
Thereâs no chance for us.
Just let it go.
â
Amya paused, surprised, then understood what he meant.
She asked coldly, âIs this because of that lowly model?â
Nevilleâs frown deepened at her words.
âHow many times do I have to say sheâs not just some lowly model? She owns her own business.
â
âItâs all the same.
â Amya dismissed his explanation.
âI told her off last night.
Told her to stop bothering you.
You should be with Susie.
â
âWhat did you say?â Shock registered on Nevilleâs face, turning quickly to anger.
Now it made sense why Miley had shown up at Susieâs house yesterday.
âWhat exactly did you tell her?â His voice was low and strained.
Amya looked at him nonchalantly.
âI told her to break up with you.
â
âMom!â Neville yelled.
âWhy are you meddling in my business? You always make things worse!â
Hurley, clearly upset by his tone, rebuked him.
âIs that how you speak to your mother?â
Neville opened his mouth to respond but ultimately remained silent.
Hurley continued, âSusieâs parents are fond of you.
They just called to discuss a potential partnership with Pierce Group.
Itâs the first time theyâve shown such interest in us.
Neville, donât ruin this important opportunity!â
Neville knew he couldnât argue, but he didnât want to end things with Miley like this.
He tried to get up to find Miley, but a sharp pain in his thigh reminded him of his reality.
He needed surgery and wasnât allowed to leave the hospital.
Resigned, he lay back down, his mind swirling with thoughts.
âLook at yourself.
Youâve changed ever since you met that lowly model.

In the past, your father and I overlooked your antics because you were young.
But now, you need to think about marriage and our familyâs futureâ¦â
Amyaâs constant nagging only made Neville more frustrated.
Annoyed, he stretched out his hand and pressed the nurseâs call button.
The nurse entered and inquired, âWhat do you need?â
âI need the surgery done immediately,â Neville demanded sharply.
His mind was filled with the fear of losing Miley if he didnât get out of the hospital soon.
In Pinster Hospital, Flossie stood by the bed, gazing at the pale figure lying there, deep in thought.
The doctor had assured her that Benny was out of danger, but it was uncertain when he would regain consciousness.
