Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 456 Darling Tony

News of the horrid prank against Amelia spread through the office like wildfire. Mr. Moore rushed over to check on the situation, paling when he saw the bloodied hairball on the ground. His gaze roved over the staff in the design department as he barked, “What the heck is going on?”

Everyone exchanged uncomfortable glances before Rory eventually stepped forward and elaborated, “Mr. Moore, a courier delivered these to Amelia earlier. The sender didn’t leave his name, and this fell out of the box when Amelia opened it. We don’t know what’s going on either.”

Reassured by her words, Mr. Moore glanced at Rory and asked, “Have you called the cops?”

“Yes, Mr. Moore. They should be reaching anytime soon,” came Rory’s answer.

Mr. Moore nodded in approval before suggesting, “Would you like to call your family, Amelia? I suppose you should share your concerns with them after such a harrowing incident.”

“Are you sure? Don’t feel obliged to put up a strong front. Please let me know if you need me to help with any difficulties.”

Amelia insisted, “Thank you, Mr. Moore, but I really am fine.”

It was not an exaggeration to say that Amelia had suffered every misfortune under the sun. Unfortunately, the prankster had had to go after her beloved son. After her harrowing accident, the doctor had given her some devastating news. The accident not only gave her a permanent blood clot in her brain but also jeopardized her fertility.
