A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 617

Amelia studied Jack for a moment before smiling.

"It's hard to believe you almost became my boyfriend. Now, you've built a billion-dollar company at such a young age."

Had it not been for all those verified news reports, she might have thought it was a dream. Life's unpredictability never ceased to amaze her.

Jack responded humbly, "Genesis Games' success was mostly luck."

"Really? You're being too modest." She shook her head before gazing at the city lights beyond the windows. "I watched your bell-ringing ceremony online. Do you know what my first reaction was?"

Jack waited, his eyes fixed on her.

"You've always been extraordinary. For the longest time, I lost sleep over 'what ifs' between us. But that night, seeing you in that tailored suit, leading your team, something clicked. The regret faded. All I felt was a tinge of regret and overwhelming happiness for you."

Amelia paused, her gaze drifting back to settle wistfully on Jack's face.

Those sharp features and enigmatic eyes had once captivated her. Yet now, though he stood within arm's reach, he felt as distant as the stars.

She continued, "You've become too extraordinary. I can never be your partner. Like one of those towering statues in ancient temples, I may worship from afar, but could never hope to possess."

A single tear traced its way down her cheek as she spoke. This was the highest praise she could offer, yet every word carried the weight of her resignation.

Some doors, once closed, could never be reopened.

Jack shifted uncomfortably, startled by how Amelia now perceived him.
