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.”

Mr. Moore exhaled heavily and approached Amelia. He asked worriedly, “Are you okay, Amelia? I hope you weren’t too shaken up by the incident. Don’t worry. I promise our company will get to the bottom of this.” He had selfish reasons for showing his concern, of course. If Amelia’s fear incited Oscar’s wrath, their company would undoubtedly suffer.

Amelia forced a smile on her face and said, “I’m okay, Mr. Moore.”

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.”

To his surprise, Amelia shook her head determinedly and uttered, “It’s fine, Mr. Moore. I don’t want to worry them unnecessarily. It’s just a hairball and a photo. It might just be a petty act by a jealous party.”

“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.”

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. In other words, she was at a much higher risk of miscarriage in the future. Of course, miracles could occur yet, but for now, Amelia viewed Anthony as the only child she would ever have in her lifetime, and she would do anything in her power to

What did Oscar ask you to do? How did you injure your arm?” Amelia blasted him with a series of questions. Despite Kurt and Hugo’s bodyguard titles, Amelia knew that Oscar kept them around for more than simple guarding duties. While injuries on their assignments were not wholly unexpected, she could not help but worry after hearing about his arm injury. Kurt had supported her greatly when she lost her sight,
