Chapter 740 Surrounded By Relatives Of The Victims

Amelia was chatting with Carter when Jolin rushed over. “Bad news, Mrs. Clinton. Boss is being surrounded by the family members of the victims who fell unconscious from being electrocuted by the phone,” she said while panting.

Frightened by the sudden news, Amelia asked hastily, “What’s going on? Why is he surrounded out of nowhere?”

“I’m not very sure what happened, but all I know is that all of the patients’ families united and came to create a ruckus at Clinton Corporations. Coincidentally, Boss was exiting the building, and they surrounded him. They’ve hemmed him in to the extent that not even the security guards are able to get in. The police have been mobilized, but I’m not sure if Boss is injured. However, this incident is being live-streamed right now,” Jolin explained after swallowing a gulp of saliva.

Anxiety was evident in Amelia’s eyes as she uttered, “Carter, go into the room and keep my mother company. Tell her that my mother-in-law needs my help with something. Don’t let her watch the television. Her health isn’t in good condition, so she can’t be agitated anymore.”

Carter nodded and responded, “Go ahead. Call me if you encounter anything that is beyond your capabilities.”

To that, Amelia inclined her head.

In a short while, she and Jolin got into the car and headed to Clinton Corporations.

“Mrs. Clinton, to be honest, I didn’t want to tell you about this, but the reporters got wind of the incident too quickly. Moreover, it’s obvious that the patients’ kin came prepared. I think someone instructed them to do this. That was why I decided to drive you over rather than let you head over on your own after seeing the news on the television. Also, I think Boss will only listen to you,” the latter explained. “You won’t blame me for telling you about this, right, Mrs. Clinton?” Jolin then asked after a brief pause.

Amelia shook her head. “I’m very thankful that you told me about this. Jolin, you’re basically my savior, so you don’t have to be so cautious when talking to me. I honestly think of you as my little sister.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Clinton.” Jolin let out a sigh of relief.

By the time they arrived at Clinton Corporations, the family of the victims who were creating chaos there had all simmered down. There were also a lot of police cars parked near the entrance of the building.

Under Jolin’s protection, Amelia ran over to Oscar and was distressed upon noticing a gash on his face. She then raised her hand to touch the wound but quickly stopped for fear that her action would hurt him.

“Does it hurt?” Amelia asked softly.

 

Oscar took her hand and pulled her behind him. The man was afraid that the irrational family members of the victims would do something unexpected and end up hurting her.

“Why did you come here, Amelia? It’s too dangerous. I’ll have Jolin send you home, okay?” Oscar tried to negotiate with her.

“No, I want to face this with you. If there’s any sort of danger, I can avoid it myself; I won’t let myself be injured. Besides, the police are around. These people aren’t bold enough to assault me as they might end up in jail for it. Furthermore, I’m furious that they hurt you,” Amelia said coldly, her expression grim.

Oscar had no choice but to allow her to stay.

Meanwhile, Isabella, who had just run out of the elevator, halted in her tracks. A bitter feeling arose in her heart. If she had been the one by Oscar’s side when he was in danger, he would surely be more fond of her and would not be repulsed by her as much. Yet, such a good opportunity was thwarted by Amelia’s appearance.
