After two weeks of holidays, Kenneth went back to school and Christopher went to his new workplace. It was a construction materials supplier—a subsidiary of a huge corporation in the city.Christopher was a dropout and he did not have any working experience. It was thanks to both Amelia and Liam that he found this job. In fact, inside Amelia's beige box was the employment contract.The company offered Christopher a junior sales associate position. Normally, the position required its candidates to possess a high school diploma. But thanks to Liam, Christopher was made an exception.The first three months were the probation period, and Christopher would not be paid a high wage—1,800 dollars, including accommodation and food. After the probation period, the wage would be increased by another 1,000 dollars, and Christopher could earn commission fees too.When David first learned about Christopher's payment scheme, he cussed out loud at Amelia again. He complained that the wage was to

There was a loud crash and someone rushed in. Suddenly, there was a commotion."Lia!""Amelia!"Two familiar voices were heard. Amelia opened her eyes and felt someone pull her into their arms. "Lia, I'm sorry for being late, I'm sorry!"Amelia's eyes became teary as she heard the apologetic and anxious voice. She could feel Liam trembling. She finally released the breath that she was holding."You're not late. I … I'm fine, don't worry!"She was scared. However, she could feel that Liam was scared too. Before she could say more, Leona started sobbing at her side. Liam released Amelia and seemed to just notice Leona's presence.When Liam and Eric arrived, two men were about to attack Amelia. They were frightened by the new arrivals and ran away.Unfortunately for Leona, her coat and dress had been torn. She was exposed and left in her undergarments.Eric had wanted to rush toward Amelia when they entered the warehouse. However, he saw Liam had also rushed forward and decided

Liam went to the doctor's office to inquire about Leona's condition."She suffered trauma on the back of her head. This caused her optic nerve to be compressed. She'll have blurred vision now. We've encountered cases like hers before. Generally, recovery is possible, though not guaranteed. But as long as the patient cooperates, the chances of recovery are high."Liam nodded."Is there anything that I can do?""Make sure the patient is in good spirits and adhere to a light diet. Stay in the hospital at the moment. We will treat the trauma and then her eyes. By the way, go get some medicine from the nurse's station for your injuries!"After thanking the doctor, Liam went out for a smoke. He was recalling the events that occurred after following Leona out of the warehouse. Leona had indeed seen one of the men. When Eric and he rushed in, the men were startled and fled immediately. But after realizing that they had more people, one of them went back to check on the warehouse. It w

The next day, Eric brought breakfast to the hospital early in the morning."Alex cooked this. I happened to meet her yesterday. So, I told her that you're pregnant and had some complications. So, she got up early to cook this for you."Eric carefully glanced at Amelia as he spoke. He wanted to see if she had any reaction. When he went home last night, Alex was waiting for him there. Since he wasn't in the mood to deal with her, he asked her to leave.They ended up arguing and she let slip that Amelia had known about their affair for a long time.Amelia was unaware of his intention. She looked pleasantly surprised when she learned that it was Alex who cooked her the soup. "Alex isn't good at cooking. She took a long time to learn to cook this soup."The soup was still warm. Amelia felt a warmth in her heart as she tasted it and savored the soup. Eric felt a complex mix of emotions after seeing Amelia's lack of surprise.Did she know about their affair as Alex had mentioned?"

Alex brought food to the hospital for Amelia in the afternoon. She wasn't surprised to see Ember there because Eric had already informed her. Amelia waved to her with a smile, "The soup this morning was delicious. You must cook it often, right?"Alex directly replied, "I noticed that Eric sometimes skips breakfast when he's busy, so I would cook for him."Her words shocked Ember. However, she remained oblivious and continued, "Eric also said that he likes my soup. I've always joked about cooking it for him for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, he's already engaged. After he gets married, there'll be someone else cooking for him."Ember's eyes flickered as she smilingly said, "You must be Ms. Lambert!"Alex looked at Ember and said with a smile, "Yes, my father is Jay Lambert. Madam Prescott, I've always envied Amelia for having a mother-in-law like you."Although there was an underlying meaning in her words, the compliments in them still made Ember happy."You have such a
