"I will go out after I give you the medicine." Amanda said in a low voice.
"Just because I helped you today?" "If that's the case, you think too much. I just wanted to protect the
dignity of An family." said Darren.
"If I got protection because of the dignity of An family, then it's reasonable for you to bully me for the
dignity of An family, isn't it?" Amanda's face was pale in the light, with a decent luster. But her lips were
rosy, like cherries covered with dew.
It was rare that she felt guilty to Darren, because he could always say hurtful words to her without
hesitation. This made Amanda feel a little upset for a while.
Darren stared at Amanda and thought, 'I have always been full of disdain for him. Why would I say
something like that now? It seems that I have been hurt by him.'
He asked impatiently, "What do you want, Amanda?"
"I don't want anything." Amanda lowered her head and said.
"Then why did you come in?" Said Darren.
"You are hurt."
"It's none of your business."
"Darren, can you not always turn a deaf ear to other people's help? I admit that I am caring about you,
because you stand out for me today. No matter what happened, you have protected me well. I feel
guilty that you got hurt. I can't leave you behind, but I don't want to be your punch bag because of this."
Amanda said angrily.
"Guilty? I don't need that. If you want to feel guilty, then do it. I don't need anyone else to feel guilty for
me. Only the woman who is willing to continue with me can stay with me." Darren said coldly.
After thinking for a while, Amanda said, "Give me Rose's phone number, let me help you call her."
After a loud noise, the door was heavily closed. And then Amanda was thrown out of the door. She
rubbed her red wrist and murmured, "I don't care what you say. You can do whatever you want." She
turned around and walked away.
Nicholas and the butler stood at the end of the corridor. There was a hint of anxiety in the butler's eyes,
"Mr. Darren is still that hard to approach. I thought Mrs. Amanda should be more tender. But she is
more stubborn than Mr. Darren. How can they live on like this? "
Nicholas laughed, "Our children have their own lives to live. Why are you more worried than me?"
The butler smiled and said, "Mr. Nicholas, please don't laugh at me. I've been watching the young
master grow up. I'm also very concerned about him."
The breakfast was ready. Nicholas was still smiling when they were having breakfast, but there was
nothing at An family that could escape from Nicholas's awareness. Amanda was clear about this too,
so she didn't disguise it at all.
Darren looked calm. After breakfast, he said goodbye to Nicholas politely and then went to the
company with Amanda directly.
On the way, neither of them spoke. It was very quiet in the car. After a while, Amanda drifted off to
sleep. When she woke up, she found herself in a lounge room. Out of curiosity, Amanda wondered how
she got in. As soon as she got out of the room and saw Gregorio, she asked, "Hi, Gregorio, why was I
in the lounge?"
Without looking up, Gregorio replied flatly, "CEO brought you in forty-five minutes ago."
"What?" Yesterday, he threw her out of the room in a fierce manner. Today, he didn't kick her out of the
car. Instead, he carried her in?
Gregorio got a phone call and said to Amanda, Mr. Gerry from EW Group wants to meet you. Are you
available now?"
"EW Group? Haven't you heard that he is our business partner?" But Amanda had no memory of it at
all.
"Mr. Gerry of EW Group is the husband of Mrs. Colleen who had a fight with you that day. I think he
wants to meet you may because of Nicholas's withdrawal of capital, and it's related to the case of XC
Park cooperated with Mr. Gerry." replied Gregorio.
"Is it serious that Mr. Nicholas withdrew the investment?" Amanda just took a nap, but Nicholas had
already taken action.
Gregorio answered, "It's not a big deal. The case that Nicholas withdrew was just a small case that he
personally cooperate with them, not related to An Group. But Lin Group will suffer a series of stock
shakes because of Nicholas' withdrawal. After all, the capital chain of An Group is more stable than
that of Lin Group. If Lin Group goes against An Group, it will cause a shock. So now, the most urgent
thing for Lin Group is to ease the tense relationship with An Group."
"So, they came to me." Amanda pointed at herself.
Gregorio nodded.
"Then I won't meet them." Amanda proposed.
Gregorio helped her refuse the meeting request directly.
Amanda was in a daze for a while, then she called Gregorio, "Why do I have nothing to do after you
came?"
Gregorio adjusted the glasses on his nose and said, "Because I have done 90% of your work. The only
thing you can be responsible for is to execute signature and to improve your presence."
Well, why did people always like to tell the truth? Amanda pouted, "Then teach me. I can't count on you
for the rest of my life."
He stopped, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Amanda, "Read this first. After you are done,
give me your comments."
There were various colors of tables and tons of data sheets. After a while, Amanda couldn't help letting
out a yawn again and again. At this time, a call came in.
Then Amanda found that she had fallen asleep on a file. Sitting opposite her, Gregorio kept
expressionless, totally ignoring what Amanda was doing.
The more Amanda thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. She had proposed to learn how to
get a job done, but now she even slept in a daze. It was so shameful. Fortunately, Gregorio didn't care
about it at all. No, if he didn't care, was it because he knew that she would sleep? Thinking of this, she
felt more embarrassed.
Seeing the caller ID was Lionel, Amanda was nervous. She answered the phone carefully.
"Why do you sound so dispirited?" Lionel asked with a smile on the other end of the line.
"I just fell asleep by accident." Amanda put her hand over the phone and said.
Lionel answered in a low voice, "It's noon. Would you like to have lunch with me?"
"Okay. What do you want to eat?" Amanda asked.
"What do you want to eat? You decide this time." "I'll drive to the company to pick you up after work."
Lionel added.
Amanda nodded and hung up the phone. She couldn't help but look forward to it and a happy smile
spread over her face.
Raising his head and seeing the smiling face when she held the phone in her hand, Gregorio restrained
the disdain in his eyes.
After getting off work, Amanda rushed to the outside of the company. When she saw Lionel's car, she
ran to it immediately and got into the car.
"Don't act like a thief." Lionel said with a smile.
"Yes, it actually feels like being a thief." Amanda said. She looked at Lionel expectantly and asked,
"Where shall we go?"
"It's your call." He looked at her with a smile.
Amanda thought a while, "Maggie recommended a restaurant to me. Let's go there. Oh, I almost forget
that Maggie is still alive or not. Has she been dragged to the middle of nowhere by Henry? I have to
call him to check."
