Chapter 654 Getting Played Instead

Amelia was amused, but she ended up drinking it, anyway.

The girl hesitated before gulping down the glass of juice she had offered to Amelia in the first place.

“Mr. Clinton, Mrs. Clinton, I’ll excuse myself now.” The girl forced herself to smile before she left.

Amelia glanced at Oscar and asked, “Oscar, she’s just a small-time actress trying a make ends meet in the entertainment industry. Since her life is difficult enough, why would you make it harder for her?”

 

“Do you think I was too harsh on her?”

“It’s not that. I just thought since this is a celebratory dinner, we shouldn’t ruin everyone’s mood. Tiff is enjoying the event as well.”

Oscar took a peek at June, who was drinking with Jennifer. “Amelia, you’re a smart woman, and you’re capable of dealing with all sorts of problems at work. However, you’re too kind compared to others.”

Puzzled, Amelia raised her gaze toward him.

“Silly woman. That young girl was fawning over June just now. Who doesn’t want to make a name for themselves in the entertainment industry? Although she’s young, that doesn’t mean she’s not ambitious. Do you understand what I mean?” Oscar explained gently.

In truth, he was not keen on exposing Amelia to the ugly side of human nature.

After she gave it some thought, her expression immediately turned cold.

“Oscar, how did you know that the young girl would dare to spike the juice?” Amelia asked.

“I’m just guessing. I doubt June would sit on his hands after going through all the trouble to find out that we’re attending this celebratory dinner. Just you wait.” Oscar chuckled coldly and continued, “Let’s show them the consequences of plotting against someone.”

Amelia spared a glance at June, who was still chatting away happily with Jennifer. He doesn’t seem like he knows what’s going on here.

“Oscar, what are you planning to do?” Amelia asked.
