Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 469 Imprisonment

At the police station, Jamie was trembling when Amelia saw her. Amelia still couldn’t wrap her head around why the latter would pull the prank.

“Amelia, please forgive me. It was a silly mistake. I promise I won’t do it ever again. Please withdraw the lawsuit because I don’t want to go to jail.” Jamie made to lunge toward Amelia, but two police officers held her down.

In truth, there wasn’t much the police could charge Jamie with based on the prank she pulled. However, the victim was Amelia. Oscar wasn’t going to let Jamie off the hook that easily. With Clinton Corporations’ team of lawyers, they could even sue her and make sure she would be sentenced to three to five years in jail. Jamie was still a young woman. Her life would be ruined if she had a criminal record.

Amelia looked at Jamie calmly before shifting her gaze toward the two police officers. “Officers, could you guys give us a few minutes of privacy?”

Since the police officers had been personally briefed by their chief about Amelia’s identity, they were very polite toward her. “We’ll be right outside, Ms. Winters. Just shout for us if you need us.”

“Thank you!” Amelia nodded.

Once Amelia and Jamie were left alone in the room, Jamie became even more anxious. “Amelia, I didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t know what had gotten into me when I did that.”

In contrast to her, Amelia was calm and collected. “Jamie, why did you do that? Do you hate me so much? Also, how did you come across my son’s photo?”

“Amelia, I was just angry when I found out you told Rory about the gossip I shared with you. When you first came to work, I thought you were different from the others. I thought you wouldn’t mind my constant chatter. However, I was very disappointed when I realized you betrayed my trust. You’re just like the others, including Rory. In my fit of rage, I thought about getting revenge. Out of a sudden, I received a package with your son’s photo in it. Next to it was a note saying that the boy was your son. I was so angry that I delivered the package to you straight away. The note was written by the person who sent me the package in the first place. I just wanted to scare you. That’s all I wanted, I swear!”

In response, Amelia kept staring at her silently.

Jamie was so frightened by Amelia’s cold stare that her lips started trembling. She then stood abruptly and wanted to approach Amelia. To her surprise, Amelia roared, “Don’t you come near me!”

Utterly terrified, Jamie froze instantly.
