Chapter 581 Selfish

Since Amelia was at Saspiuburg for the past few days, much work had piled up. She greeted her colleagues from the same department and buried herself in work as soon as she arrived.

It was almost noon when her phone rang. Amelia picked it up to have a look and frowned when she saw the words displayed on her phone screen.

Despite being a little unhappy with it, Amelia eventually answered the call. “Hello.”

“Amelia, it’s Dad. I’m outside of your office. Can you come down to meet Mom and me?” Dominic’s cautious voice rang out from the phone.

Amelia heaved a sigh. Even though her parents had done many wrong things, Amelia could not bear to cut off ties with them.

It was acceptable for parents to make mistakes, but not for a child. Otherwise, one would be considered unfilial.

Amelia answered, “Dad, you and Mom wait for me. I’m coming down now.”

It was almost lunchtime too. Amelia tidied up the documents on her table and turned off her computer. She was about to head downstairs when Jolin followed closely behind.

“Jolin, go and have lunch with the other colleagues. I’m going down to do something,” said Amelia.

Jolin adamantly said, “I’m sorry, Ms. Amelia. I have to stay by your side to protect you. What if the same incident happens? That someone knocks you down with a car. I’ll be the one at fault if anything happens to you.”

After hearing what Jolin said, Amelia was deeply frustrated.

“Jolin, this is my order. I don’t think Oscar sent you to restrict my freedom,” Amelia persisted. It was rare for her to put up an uncompromising attitude.

Jolin frowned and looked at Amelia with slight disapproval.

“Please listen to me, Jolin. I’ll go downstairs and come up in a moment.”

At last, Jolin could only compromise, and Amelia hurriedly went downstairs.
