Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 483 I Will Send Someone To Protect You

Back at the office, Rory walked over to Amelia and pretended to ask in concern, “Amelia, is that guy your friend?”

“He’s the fiancé of someone I previously knew. He came to check with me on some random stuff. We parted ways after we left the restaurant,” Amelia replied casually.

Rory nodded and said in an exceptionally innocent manner, “Amelia, why are all your friends so good-looking? I almost mistook him for a celebrity.”

Amelia merely smiled and did not reply.

Rory sensed that Amelia was not keen on continuing the conversation. As such, she did not speak any further and returned to her seat.

Right after Amelia sat down and turned on her computer, her phone chimed. It was a text message.

When she took out her phone, she saw that it was a text from an unknown number.

With a frown, she decided to take a look at the message.

The sender texted: Amelia, I’m June. This is my number. I’m very happy that I got to have lunch with you just now. I hope you can be my beautiful rose and be carved into my heart forever.

What a madman, Amelia cursed silently before deleting the man’s text.

It was undeniable that Amelia’s mood had been affected by June’s sudden appearance. She was distracted at work, as she could not help but wonder why the man had shown up. As she knew how much Cassie resented her, she was worried that June had malicious intentions toward her and would cause misunderstandings between her and Oscar.

Amelia rubbed her temples, trying to calm her overactive mind down. She was not worried that June and Cassie might cause her any trouble. She was worried that they would lay their hands on Tony instead.

Because of her overthinking, for the first time, Amelia did not manage to complete her work when it was time to knock off.

Seeing that she was still halfway through her blueprint drawing, she could not help but smile bitterly. She could hardly believe that she had let her thoughts affect her work. It was simply out of character for her.

“Amelia, are you ready to leave?” Rory walked over to her desk. When she saw the half-completed blueprint, she asked in confusion, “Amelia, are you not done with the drawing? Is there something on your mind? When I looked over just now, I could tell that you seem quite bothered.”

Amelia saved the uncompleted drawing into a USB drive and shut down her computer. “I’m all right. I just didn’t have much inspiration for the drawing earlier on. Let’s go.”

The women took the elevator down together and exited the building. Amelia was looking around for Oscar’s car when she received a call from the man in question.
