Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 471 Get To The Top

When Amelia returned to the office to work, all her colleagues naturally consoled her. Some even said Jamie was a heartless person and that they could not believe she could do something like that to a colleague from the same department. It was a humiliating matter for the company.

However, Amelia responded calmly, “Thank you for your concern, everyone. I don’t want to talk about Jamie anymore. We should just let the police handle everything. If they want to teach her a lesson before letting her go or even lock her in jail for a few days, it’s not up to my decision.”

“Don’t worry, Amelia. The police will punish her according to the law. Her prank has seriously affected your job and even your life. It even affected you mentally. She definitely won’t get any benefit out of it,” said Lydia. Ever since she knew Amelia was the wife of Clinton Corporations’ heir, she had been constantly trying to get in the latter’s good books. She was doing it more openly compared to Rory, who was better at being subtle.

“Thank you, Lydia. With everyone’s concern, I don’t feel that sad anymore,” Amelia said.

After a brief chat, the crowd slowly dispersed and went back to work.

Right then, the manager walked in with a relatively good-looking man who seemed to be in his thirties. The latter was dressed in a suit.

“Everyone, please be quiet. The boss is here,” Eduardo announced, clapping his hands to get the employees’ attention.

Hearing that, everyone in the design department got to their feet.

“Hello, Mr. Franklin,” everyone greeted in unison.

Meanwhile, a hint of surprise flashed past Amelia’s eyes when she saw the young man’s face. She blurted, “Shane Franklin?”

The young man shifted his gaze to her, and his lips curled into a smile. “Amelia, it’s really you! When Mr. Clinton gave me a call and mentioned your name, I was a little suspicious, and I couldn’t help but wonder if it was the Amelia I know from university. I didn’t expect it to really be you. We haven’t met for so many years, and now, you’ve become an employee in my company.”
