Amanda wanted to follow him, but she found that she was still in pyjamas. Then she stopped and said
to him, “I didn’t hide it from you on purpose. Believe it or not.”
Then she turned around and walked to her room.
Casimir was speechless.
It was her fault, but she behaved as if he had wronged her.
How could she return to her room just like this? He wondered if she truly treated him as her friend.
He expected that she would chase him.
He wondered if she cared about him.
The more he was thinking, the angrier he got. Then he rushed to leave the hotel.
In the hotel room.
Amanda was also angry.
Casimir wasn’t willing to listen to her and went furious.
She believed that he should listen to her explanation.
It turned out he was too angry to give her any chance to speak.
Gerben and Gerald were quite sensible. They knew she was angry. When she entered the room, they
walked out.
They also overheard the argument between Casimir and her, but they didn’t know what they were
arguing about.
They were arranged to work for Amanda because they were Andrew’s colleagues in the special forces.
They were also taken care of by Major General Harris.
Later, Andrew was transferred because of his outstanding performance. The twin brothers didn’t know
which unit had Andrew been transferred to and they lost contact with him.
It was said that Andrew entered a secret organization owned by the state. Ordinary people didn’t know
where exactly he was and what missions he was on.
Then, Noah found them and asked them to do him a favour.
Hence, they left the military.
However, when Amanda wouldn’t need them to work for her any longer, they would return to the
military.
Since they would work for her, Abbott had already told them what happened to Amanda and who was
around her in detail.
They even know who the man named Casimir was.
Casimir was Amanda’s friend, who also saved her life. Hence, when they were arguing, the twins didn’t
show up as they knew Casimir wouldn’t harm Amanda.
Suddenly, the door of the hotel room was opened. Amanda had put on her clothes. Looking at the twins
at the door, she said, “I need one of you to come with me and the other to stay here.”
She didn’t want to attract others’ attention by going out with two bodyguards. Even they were not
wearing military uniforms, they emanated a strong trained soldier’s aura.
“You should stay,” said Gerben to his brother.
His brother was unhappy, “I’d better follow Ms. Nelson.”
“I’m your older brother. You must listen to me,” said Gerben aggressively.
Amanda was speechless while watching them.
“You are the older brother, but you can’t decide on your own. Besides, you were born only a few
minutes earlier than I was.”
“Our parents named us Gerben and Gerald. My name is listed in front of yours alphabetically. You
should listen to me.”
Gerald was speechless.
Right then, Amanda chimed in, “You both are excellent bodyguards. I also have a job to assign to the
person who stays.”
Since the person who stayed wouldn’t be idle, Gerald wasn’t so unhappy.
Amanda handed him a bank car, “Since you’re working for me now, I can’t treat you poorly. Gerald, ask
the hotel if there’s an empty room next to me. At least, your accommodation needs to be arranged.”
Gerald didn’t take the card over. He said in disappointment, “It’s already arranged.
They would only take whatever they were supposed to. They wouldn’t take extra pay.
It wasn’t until then did Amanda realize that since Abbott had assigned them to her, he must have
arranged everything well.
She slightly heaved a sigh. It turned out everything had been settled again. She felt deeply frustrated,
“All right.”
She put away the bank car and walked out.
It was the older brother, Gerben, who followed her out.
“Please give me the car key, Ms. Nelson. I’ll drive,” said Gerben.
Amanda gave the key to him, pulled the door open, and was about to sit in. Atwood walked to her.
“Good morning, Ms. Flores,” he greeted her.
Amanda looked back and saw him walking towards her.
She stopped.
“Ms. Flores, when is your business plan ready?” asked Atwood.
“One month as we agreed. It’s not the deadline yet. I don’t need to report it to you, do I?”
“Of course. Mr. James just wants to know the progress. Ms. Flores, please go to our company and
report it to Mr. James.”
Amanda was dead, so it would be useless for Stanford even he regretted it.
However, Atwood found that Stanford treated Simona Flores differently than others, so he hoped that
Simona could replace Amanda.
He decided on his own and came over to find Simona, just hoping that Simona could get along with
Stanford more so that the latter wouldn’t be so lonely.
“I’m on my way to deal with something. I don’t have time,” Amanda refused.
Abbott would be leaving town soon, so she must talk to Casimir.
She believed that he would have calmed down a bit now, so he should be able to listen to her.
Although Amanda was quite angry that he refused to give her a chance to explain, the matter was
relevant to Casimir’s recognition with Abbott, so she wasn’t truly angry with Casimir.
She bent over and wanted to get in, but Atwood pulled the door of the car, “Ms. Flores, you’d better go
to our company.”
Amanda suppressed her temper, “Do you ask me to go there on behalf of Mr. James?”
Atwood answered, “Yes.”
“He’s the CEO of such a big company but how can’t he obey the agreement?” with a sneer, Amanda
said aggressively, “I won’t go there today.”
She pulled back the door forcibly and said, “Gerben, let’s go.”
Gerben cast a lance at Atwood and sat on the driver’s seat.
Soon, the car roared away. Atwood was standing motionlessly in a daze.
He had thought that it wouldn’t be difficult for him to lure Amanda to the company. Much to his surprise,
she was way too aggressive.
He didn’t only fail to lure her over but also pissed her off.
He wondered if she would go to make trouble for Stanford later.
Atwood suddenly realized that his kindness had caused big trouble.
He didn’t know what to do.
He believed that he had acted recklessly.
He wondered if he should go back and take the initiative to tell Stanford about it.
The next second, he said no to himself.
When Amanda arrived at Casimir’s company, she didn’t find him there. She tried to call him, but the call
wasn’t connected. His phone was powered off. None of the employees in his company knew where he
was.
Amanda could only leave there. When she was about to look for Casimir, she saw Stanford walking out
of a building opposite with several people followed him. It seemed that he came here for talking
business and was on the way to leave.
She was pretty upset about Casimir’s matter, and Atwood went to urge her to report the progress. They
had agreed to let her submit the business plan in one month. However, she was urged after only a few
days.
With anger, Amanda walked across the road and walked to Stanford, “Good day, Mr. James,” she
greeted him.
Stanford was about to sit in his car. Seeing her, he paused and stood upright. He asked, “Ms. Flores,
why...”
He was about to ask her why she was here. Then he noticed that the building where Casimir’s
company was located was opposite.
Casimir declared that they were in love earlier. Last time in the charity banquet, they showed up
together. Stanford thought that he should have sensed it earlier.
With a cold look, he asked, “Ms. Flores, what can I do for you?”
Amanda snorted, “Mr. James, don’t you want to ask me for the progress of the business plan?”
Before Stanford responded, she continued in a fierce tone, “Mr. James, you are the president of a huge
organization, so you should know how to obey the agreement with your business partner. When we
signed the contract, we’ve agreed to have the business plan ready in one month, haven’t we? It’s only
a few days, you started urging me. Don’t you trust me or RM Group?”
Stanford looked a bit surprised. He asked, “Ms. Flores, what do you mean?”
“What do I mean?” Amanda almost vented all her anger on him, “Do you want to deny what you’ve
done? Or are you too deaf to hear what I said? Or, probably, Mr. James, you are such a man without
any principle, aren’t you? If you don’t trust me, you can directly tell me you don’t want to work with RM
Group. However, you dare not to admit what you’ve done. Is that still your style of doing things?”
Stanford looked at her. After a long while, he asked, “Do you know what my style used to be?”
She asked if that was still his style of doing things.
She sounded as if she used to be quite familiar with him.
Amanda snorted, “Mr. James, don’t you want to ask me for the progress of the business plan?”
Before Stanford responded, she continued in a fierce tone, “Mr. James, you are the president of a huge
organization, so you should know how to obey the agreement with your business partner. When we
signed the contract, we’ve agreed to have the business plan ready in one month, haven't we? It’s only
a few days, you started urging me. Don’t you trust me or RM Group?”
Stanford looked a bit surprised. He asked, “Ms. Flores, what do you mean?”
“What do | mean?” Amanda almost vented all her anger on him, “Do you want to deny what you’ve
done? Or are you too deaf to hear what | said? Or, probably, Mr. James, you are such a man without
any principle, aren't you? If you don't trust me, you can directly tell me you don’t want to work with RM

Stanford looked at her. After a long while, he asked, “Do you know what my style used to be?”
She asked if that was still his style of doing things.
She sounded as if she used to be quite familiar with him.
