Chapter 228

"Screech-"

The downed glass bottle shattered to pieces and Amelia thought she was safe, but her expression changed when she smelled the yellow oily substance coming out of the bottle. That was sulfuric acid! "It stinks! Who threw this thing?" The pungent smell of sulfuric acid made the surrounding security guards frown.

Amelia looked up in the direction of the acid being thrown, only to see a petite figure quickly pull the brim of her hat down and turn to flee the scene as fast as she could as she caught sight of her. Amelia froze, and if she was right about the person who hit her with the glass bottle, it was...

"Are you okay, Miss Ramsay?" One of the security guards asked with concern.

"Thank you, the bottle didn't hit me."

If she showed any sign of fear at this point, she'd be accused of being a guilty conscience, so instead of that, why didn't she just face everyone openly? She had to prove she's above board!

After gaining confidence, Amelia ignored the staring behind her and stalked towards the front door.

Amelia was dutifully escorted by security to the conference hall by elevator.

As soon as the elevator door opened, the first thing that came into sight of Amelia was Milton's handsome face, which looked somewhat evil.

Scanning her slender figure in the gorgeous gown, Milton was surprised, "You're so much prettier than today's starlets, it looks like you're here to walk the red carpet!"

"Are you kidding me?" Amelia was lively when she met Milton: "By the way, remember to tell Aunt Sierra that you're coming to my house for dinner tonight so Aunt Sierra doesn't have to prepare your dinner." "What?" Milton thought he misunderstands what she said.
