Chapter 520 Let It Pass

At 5 o’clock in the afternoon, Tiffany called up Amelia. Once the call got through, she asked, “Amelia, can you spend an hour with me after getting off work?”

“What happened? You sound serious,” Amelia replied, smiling.

“We’ll talk after you get off from work. It’s complicated. I can’t tell you over the phone. All right. I’ll hang up now. Give me an hour later. Don’t let Oscar know about it, or he’ll skin me alive.”

The more Tiffany tried to keep the suspense, the more Amelia felt curious about it.

After work, the latter went down with Rory and saw Tiffany leaning against her car, looking bored.

Rory and Amelia went up to Tiffany. A tinge of jealousy flashed across Rory’s eyes when she saw the red car, but she quickly concealed it.

“Tiffany,” Rory greeted at her politely.

Tiffany glanced at her and said, “Rory, you go home first. I have something to do with Amelia, so I can’t send you home today.”

Rory replied with a smile, “No problem. I’ll make a move, then.” With that said, she straightened her back and walked away. Nonetheless, her smile instantly disappeared when she walked some distance where the two women couldn’t see her expression. She looked a little emotionally unstable.

Looking at Rory’s departing figure, Tiffany snorted before saying to Amelia, “Let’s get into the car, Babe.”

Amelia got into the car and fastened the seat belt. Then, she turned to look at Tiffany and said, “Tiff, aren’t you a bit harsh toward Rory? She’s still young. What you did earlier might hurt her dignity.”

“Shouldn’t she earn her dignity by herself? Plus, I didn’t do anything to her. I just don’t like her. Since I don’t like her, how can you ask me to smile at her?” Tiffany responded nonchalantly.

Amelia smiled without saying a word. She then changed the topic because she knew they wouldn’t come to any conclusion if they continued discussing Rory.

“What’s the matter you wanted to tell me when you called me earlier? You sounded so serious,” Amelia asked.

“Let’s eat first. I’ll tell you later.”

“Sorry. Oscar insisted I have dinner with him tonight, so I have no choice but to stand you up. He’s coming over at seven. You told me that you only needed an hour.”

Tiffany glanced at her. “Babe, no one would look so defiant like you when you prioritize your lover over a friend.”

“We can always be forthright with each other given our relationship.”

Tiffany was thrilled at her words.
