Noting that Lamont reacted strongly, people standing beside him subconsciously took two steps back
Who wouldn’t be startled by his angry face?
“I come here with good intentions to deliver you a meal, but look at you, Mr. Byron. You ought to be kind after all, right?” She scolded on the sofa bluntly, denouncing him loudly. There was no doubt she was provoking Lamont.
“I heard that you have been working overtime all night during this time?”
Lamont lowers his head, and don’t intend to come over for meal. But he doesn’t leave Amelie alone, he just hums lightly.
“How can you stay healthy without eating anything?”
Amelie becomes bolder. She walked over to pick him up, draged him to the sofa, and then placed the bowl in front of him.
“I can gather up the files. If you don’t mind, I can help you with it, but you have to finish eating your meal today. You can’t fail to do what you promised Miriam.”
At such a critical moment, she brought out Miriam as an excuse.
It stands to reason that with Amelie’s action, he would definitely lose his temper. It was known to all that his temper was the worst in the entire Byron family, maybe because he was spoiled by Draven Byron when he was young.
Originally, Lamont also wanted to lose his temper, because he is disgusted and even annoyed by Amelie’s self–righteousness. But for some reason, he turned to have a good temper. Usually, when Miriam made the table for him, he was either in no appetite or unwilling to eat.
But today, when he saw that it was sent by Amelie, his stomach grambles all of a suddenly and felt like to eat something.
Why was this woman so attractive?
Thinking about this, Lamont looked up, and only to find out that she has already been sitting on his president’s chair and flipping through the documents.
As it was in the past, he would consider that Amelie was so unscrupulous in order to inquire about his company’s secrets. But now he brainwashed himself into thinking that Amelie was here to help him. She still remembered that he had a stomachache and worries about his health condition, since he has gone for a long period of time without eating.
Consider all of these, he felt a little touched in his heart.
Could such a woman really be the murderer who killed grandpa?
Lamont was in a mess, he has forgotten that there was really an important file in that pile, and he didn’t want Amelie to know.
But when he realizeed it, Amelie has already found it.
“Cayenne Group? You signed the contract with Cayenne Group?”
Amelie looked at the two big characters Cayenne on the paper, which has the strongest power and highest status among
company groups.
With the strongest power overseas, even the Capet Group is willing to become its subsidiary.
all
It is said that it belongs to Jeff’s aunt, Rebecca’s mysterious husband who has never shown up.
Such a large group is willing to cooperate with Prosperity Global?
“You signed a contract with Cayenne?”
With surprise on Amelie’s face, the moment she looks at Lamont all kinds of thoughts are in her mind and slowly disappears in
the end.
Since he can’t hide it anymore, he only nods in response.
“I thought I would tell you after a while, for fear that you would not be able to accept it.”
Cayenne Group orders the newborn artist who won the first place in Prosperity Global’s audition to appear in a drama, obviously, that person must be Amelie without even thinking about it.
and
As long as it was a script that Cayenne prefers, it would definitely sell well, and it is of great possibility that she will become famous once for all.
But for one thing, Amelie needed to play a supporting role for Cynthia, who was the heroine of this show.
She should have thought of it a long time ago, but after knowing the truth, she is so angry, but finally it turns into a contemptuous smile.
“Mr. Byron must have made great efforts to cooperate with the Cayenne Group. As an artist of Prosperity Global, I should obey your arrangement.”
The reason why Lamont wants to hide it from Amelie is that he worries that Cynthia and Amelie cannot get along well with each other, but actually, it is Cynthia obviously who has trouble with it.
Ever since Amelie came to Prosperity Global, Cynthia is always asking for trouble, for nothing.
When did Amelie try to pick things up?
So she guessed that in the script that Cayenne prefers, the heroine definitely was the nemesis of the supporting actress.
Cynthia asked the Cayenne Group for help to name her to play the supporting role, aiming to bully him in various ways in the plot.
But she really gained much love. She is so surprised that Rebecca spoils her so much!
“If you don’t like, I can talk to Cayenne and let them change for another actress.”

How could Lamont cared about her feelings, even regarding negotiating with someone who is dozens of times stronger than him?
She really couldn’t believe that thiswas something Lamont could do.
Amelie thought him as an altruist who would abandon everyone else.
“It’s fine. I just obey your arrangement. I’m used to Cynthia’s targeting of me.”
What was more, the shooting start time of the script was clearly written on the document, which is tomorrow.
Otherwise, when does Lamont want to inform her about this?
Dose he wants to wait until the filming is approaching and force her to do so?
Amelie heels that if that is the case, she might be even more angry.
It seems that the God still favored her, otherwise she will be completely unprepared tomorrow, and Cynthia will take the opportunity to provoke her again.
Didn’t know when these days shall end.
Shaking her head to keep sober, she brought her attention back and continues to help Lamont gather up the files.
“It’s better to eat the meal while it’s hot, it’s not good for the stomach when it’s cold.”
Amelie could feel Lamont’s scorching gaze even without looking up.
She felt uncomfortable all over.
Amelie didn’t know how much time has passed, and she feels that her eyes are about to close.
She really didn’t understand why the CEO of the Byron Group would be overwhelmed by a small entertainment company under
his name.
Why did Prosperity Global have so many files to deal with every day?
Was everyone else in this company dead?
Was Lamont the only one who can finish all this work?
Thinking about it, Starry Sea Entertainment was easier to be managed under her control, as the employees were motivated, so there is no need to worry about it.
Amelie hardly stays at Starry Sea Entertainment to work overtime, but she heard from Miriam that Lamont has habit of working overtime.
The outside world has already pressed the stop button, and everyone is ready to fall asleep.
Only Prosperity Global Entertainment’s CEO’s office was still brightly lit.
Lamont takes Amelie’s place after simply eating two mouthfuls of food, which seems to flatter Amelie.
She didn’t want to leave afterward, anyway. It was so late and no one is going to pick her up, so what if she ran into a pervert?
Amelie simply sat in the office and waits for dawn. Then she falls asleep on the sofa.
Lamont took his coat and gently put it on her, looking at her pretty facial features, he paused for a moment.
He hasn’t had a good look at this woman for a long time.
Amelie was woken up by the first employee who clocked in outside the door. It was only 5: 30 in the morning.
It turns out that the grassroots employees of Prosperity Global Entertainment were now so introverted.
The suit jacket on her body fail off, and she realized that she felt asleep on the sofa in Lamont’s office last night.
Looking up, it was dawn outside, and the first ray of sunlight in the morning shines on him.
Amelie almost thought that she was having an illusion.
He looked quite handsome like this, and she suddenly understood why she had to getting herself in the great trouble the day
before.
It’s a pity that his personal character was not good. If it was in ancient times, he must spoil his concubine instead of his wife.
Although now it seems..
Amelie suddenly feels that something was wrong, and Lamont seems he was in pain as his face is distorted.
What was he holding back?
“Mr. Byron are you okay?”
Amelie stood up and tentatively walks over to see him more clearly.
He gritted his teeth to say that he was fine, but his face was pale, and there were slight beads of sweat on his forehead.
“You are pretending when you said it’s fine. Look at your pale face? I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Amelie pulls Lamont to stand up, but she didn’t know if she became stronger or he was just pretending.
Anyway, Lamont lost his balance when he was touched lightly by her, and so as Amelie.
The two fail to the ground, and she was pinned under him and couldn’t move.
“You try to move a little, otherwise you will crush me to death if you act like this.”
Amelie struggled to get out from Lamont’s body, but he was so weak that his whole weight was on her.
It suddenly remind her of a day five years ago, and when it rained heavily outside the door, Lamont came back very late with
the same appearance.
When Amelie wanted to go up to check if he caught a cold from the rain, she was reprimanded by Lamont indifferently.
Thinking about it now, she was still a little angry.
“I shouldn’t care about you, an arrogant man.”
After finally getting up, Amelie needed to do something to save him from death, as Lamont was losing consciousness, so she called for an ambulance in a panic.
Later, she called several security guards from the entrance of the company, and together they carried Lamont into the
ambulance.
Amelie went to the hospital with him, and it turned out he has a stomach problem. His face distorted because of the pain, and he felt like all the intestines in his stomach were mixed together.
She couldn’t bear to continue watching, he must be in great pain.
On the way, Lamont develops a high fever, probably caused by the inflammation in his stomach, and he holds Amelie’s hand and
says some nonsense,
“Why are you so selfish, what am I in your heart?”
Lamont was unconscious and Amelie was even more confused hearing this and she wondered if he is talking about her.
“Doctor, come and see if he is burning to stupid.”
Amelie was so worried about the Lamont’s condition. This was the first time after they got divorced, she hops that he would not die.
“If you are dead, all my plans will be disrupted, but we still have to compete fairly, so you can’t just die like this.”
Amelie kept saying these aggressive words beside his ears, because she was really afraid that he will die before he persists in the hospital.
It has proved that bad guys are lucky, such as a playboy like Lamont, who is even rejected by the god of death.
After two hours of ald, Lamont recovered but he still needs to rest in bed for a while.
None of his family came to visit since Lamont has been transferred from the emergency room to the general ward, and Miriam came and left because of too many things in the company.
Amelie was the only one who keeps an eye on him. She felt sorry to him about this.
Thinking about it, Amelie didn’t resent him so much anymore. The mother who gave birth to him wants to kill him, and his father and grandfather were killed by his grandma.
Even the younger sister who was related by blood is now missing, so no one cares for Lamont now.
VIP ward.
“Are you awake? The doctor said that you were lonely and tired, and your irregular diet caused your stomach to be irritated and produced a stress response.”
“Although you are out of danger now, you still need to rest, or this stomach problem will really kill you.”
“Having experienced this lesson, I wonder if you will keep staying up late and eating on time in the future!”
As soon as she saw Amelie woke up, Amelie starts talking continuously. Lamont is in a daze, looking at the woman sitting and talking beside the bed.
It was exactly what he imagined for times and times when he was young. At that time, he hoped that there would be a woman. standing behind him to support him all the time and care about his daily necessities.
What a peaceful life he wanted to live with her!
But why did they end like this?
Lamont was praying in his heart. It would be great if she didn’t kill Grandpa!
The wound of losing her finally began to open slowly in his heart.
“Mr. Byron? Mr. Byron?”
Amelie was calling him again like what she used to do in the Byron family. She used to call him in this way when she runs after him like she was never getting bored.
But Lamont found her annoying every time, and has to reprimand her every time.
So, reflexively, Lamont frowns and almost starts saying the words to reprimand her.
But he suddenly came to his senses, and it reminds him that they were divorced, and she was no longer the weak Amelie who
were at the mercy of others.
“Why are you so stunned? Did you hear what I just said? This time I am by your side, and the doctor said you are rescued in time. But if we are not by your side next time, you will not be so lucky.”
Amelie was still talking, but Lamont suddenly bended down and holds her in his arms.
“Amelie, will you be always by my side from now on?”
His chin rested on her collarbone, and this sudden movement caught Amelie by surprise.
The words she hasn’t said yet were choked back in an instant, and she is stunned for a moment.
The next second, she violently pushed him away as if she is shocked by electricity, “Mr. Byron, are you burnt out?”
Lamont was not angry, and he just looked at Amelie quietly. The words just now has cost him all his courage, and it can be even more difficult to say it again.
“Mr. Byron, I’m the one who killed grandpa. You should hate me, we should be at daggers drawn over this, and never talk to each other, right?”
Amelie’s words express her sarcasm, because she wanted to anger Amelie, otherwise it will be rather hard to talk to him.
She was also warning herself in this way. Didn’t even think about giving this man a chance to turn around.
Lamont was really irritated by her words, “Why did you kill grandpa? Did the Byron family treat you badly? Did I treat you badly?”
“For your sake, you’d better calm down!”
Amelie overwhelms him with a louder voice, “In terms of personal feelings, there’s no possibility. From now on, we can only be cooperator or enemies.“
