Chapter 684 Save Her

Amelia’s lips curved into a smirk. “Rory, I can’t believe you have such prejudice toward me. You’ll never be my friend from now on.”

 

Hearing that, Rory felt her heart sink to her stomach. From that moment onward, she could never rely on Amelia ever again.

At the same time, she had also offended the Clinton family. Oscar was a protective husband and would definitely make her life difficult for her.

Rory’s lips twitched, but she said nothing as she spotted Jolin’s gaze. Her face went pale as she clenched her hands tightly.

 

She was utterly conflicted. In the end, she announced loudly to everyone, “Amelia, I’m a bit*h. I have harmed you for my own interests. I’m sorry for letting you down.”

She repeated the apology thrice in a row.

The other colleagues who were initially enjoying the show immediately cast her strange looks as though she were a monster.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Indeed, she’s a bit*h. I can’t believe Rory said that out loud. This is strange, though. Why did she admit to being the culprit after harming Amelia? Did she come to her senses and suddenly feel guilty?

However, they knew Rory well enough. There was no way she would feel guilty.

Thus, everyone grew suspicious of her real motive.

 

Amelia uttered, “Rory, it’s fine to make mistakes. However, it’s not fine to not have the courage to admit to one’s mistakes. Now that you’ve admitted to your mistake, that means you’re not evil to the core. I hope you have a reason for doing so. You’ve only worked for barely one year, and I sincerely hope you’re still as simple as a student.”

Rory hung her head low to hide her fury, humiliation, and reluctance from everyone.

Everyone’s gaze was boring into her. Amelia was being kind, but she interpreted that as a hypocritical act.

Biting her lips, she told herself not to give herself away to Amelia ever again. Her heart was full of reluctance.

“Amelia, I’m really sorry. Please forgive me this once,” Rory pleaded.
