CHAPTER 110: CHAPTER 110: AMELIA WRIGHT LOSES HER COMPOSURE

Amelia Wright heard Hailey Smith’s words, put down the pen in her hand, and responded with a hum.

She must eat well now to ensure the child in her womb gets enough nutrition, and other matters can be placed at the back.

Sarah Bennett finally breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and rubbed her sore shoulders, "Then Mr. Wright, I’ll go to eat first."

Amelia instructed Sarah Bennett, "Go ahead, finalize the materials for these orders within three days."

Three days was a tight schedule, but Sarah Bennett nodded in determination despite the challenge.

After Sarah Bennett left, Hailey Smith then handed Amelia Wright her "employee meal."

Hailey Smith persuaded, "Madam, you’re so busy, just go to the top floor to eat, and while you’re at it, change the medicine."

Amelia originally kept a scar on her face to make Godfery Shaw hate and stay away from her.

But thinking about Godfery Shaw’s attitude, it seemed the scar had no meaning, so there was no need to keep forcing it.

Amelia agreed, "Alright, then I’ll go up to eat."

After all, wherever she ate, it was still eating.

Amelia carried the lunchbox and left the office together with Hailey Smith, taking the elevator to the top floor.

Godfery Shaw’s office was on the top floor, Basil Smith, as Godfery Shaw’s special assistant, was naturally on the top floor too.

Amelia had never understood why company presidents always had to be on high floors; wouldn’t the first floor be cooler in the summer?

After stepping out of the elevator, this floor was empty with no one around.

Hailey Smith pointed ahead and said, "My brother is in the reception room."

Amelia walked towards the reception room.

Amelia pushed open the reception room door; Hailey Smith hadn’t had time to follow when someone grabbed his arm.

He was about to cry out in pain, for the arm hadn’t healed yet from a beating, when he turned back to see it was his brother who had grabbed him.

Basil Smith directly shut the reception room door and said in a voice so low it was almost a whisper, "Shut up, the Young Master is inside."

Hailey Smith immediately shut his mouth, not even daring to express pain; indeed, he was still too naive.

Turns out changing the medicine and whatnot was just an excuse.

The Young Master wanted to see the Young Madam, specially coaxed her here for a meeting; it was unexpected that the Young Master was like this.

After Amelia entered, without seeing Basil Smith, she saw Godfery Shaw and immediately frowned.

Godfery Shaw said coldly, "Eat first."

Clearly still a cold and distant voice, yet Amelia suddenly remembered last night’s "sister."

Her heart immediately became chaotic, as if the dead heart quietly rippled due to Godfery Shaw’s voice.

Amelia didn’t refuse, fearing she would betray her emotions.

She pursed her lips, sat on the sofa in the reception room, and buried her head in eating.

Godfery Shaw also carried his food over and sat next to Amelia.

The two quietly ate their lunch.

Amelia glanced sideways at Godfery Shaw’s food.

Godfery Shaw was eating the exact same employee meal as hers.

Godfery Shaw spoke in a slightly deep tone, "Last night..."

"Phfft!"

Godfery Shaw only said "last night," and Amelia instantly panicked, abruptly raising her head and accidentally spraying Godfery Shaw’s face with rice.

At this moment, the reception room was silent...

Two pairs of eyes met; Amelia never imagined she would face such an embarrassing scene in her life.

She hurriedly said, "I’m sorry, I... didn’t mean to."

Godfery Shaw had a grain of rice on his nose tip; Amelia thought Godfery Shaw had probably never been so embarrassed in his life, making her apology sound insincere.

Amelia hastily snatched the paper napkins nearby, stood up, and went to wipe Godfery Shaw’s face.

The scene was so awkward that Amelia didn’t notice how close she was to Godfery Shaw at the moment.

Godfery Shaw watched Amelia approaching him.

He realized that Amelia wasn’t angry about last night, but what had he done while drunk that led to Amelia’s attitude?

It seemed Amelia’s attitude towards him was better than before.

Godfery Shaw suddenly leaned back and reclined on the sofa.

Amelia, who was already leaning close, immediately lost balance and directly fell into Godfery Shaw’s arms.

The reception room was even quieter.

A subtle atmosphere spread between them.

Amelia was momentarily at a loss for how to react.

The person in front of her was Godfery Shaw, not the sickly Julius Shaw.

Her interactions with Godfery Shaw had always maintained a distance.

Even after realizing Godfery Shaw liked her, she hadn’t interacted closely with him, not to mention that crazy time... and the pregnancy was an unintended surprise.

"Amelia, you tipped over my lunchbox." Godfery Shaw’s voice broke Amelia’s chaotic thoughts.

Amelia clumsily got up from Godfery Shaw’s embrace.

From some point onward, he had started calling her Amelia too.

When Julius Shaw called her that, all she thought about was fighting wits and courage with Julius Shaw.

But whenever Godfery Shaw called her that, she was just nervous.

She didn’t know what she was nervous about.

Her heart just raced uncontrollably, like her bloodstream suddenly rushing to her forehead, making her mind a bit fevered.

Amelia tried hard to hold her face firm and said to herself, "I’ll call someone to clean up."

Godfery Shaw got up and brushed the grains of rice off his clothes, "First come to my office, someone will clean this up in a bit."

Godfery Shaw finished his words, picked up Amelia’s lunchbox, and walked to his office.

Amelia’s lunch was taken away, and she didn’t know whether to follow or stay.

She felt she should be calm; wanting to maintain distance from Godfery Shaw, acting calm as if facing a stranger, just like a few days ago.

Thus, with a cold face, Amelia followed Godfery Shaw to his office.

Godfery Shaw’s office was very similar to his room in the Imperial Garden.

They both had dark gray tones, cold and solemn, seemingly devoid of any human presence.

Then Godfery Shaw did something that almost made Amelia lose her composure.

He used a spoon to draw a dividing line in the middle of Amelia’s lunchbox, "Half each."

Godfery Shaw naturally started eating.

Amelia blushed red and white alternately; she had already eaten some of that!

Godfery Shaw elegantly swallowed the food in his mouth, "You tipped over my lunch, ordering another wouldn’t be finished, I don’t like wasting food."

Godfery Shaw was deliberately probing; he wanted to know if something had indeed happened last night that caused a change in Amelia’s attitude toward him.

He couldn’t bear her determination to stay away from him, that she’d rather ruin her face.

The thought that she intentionally hurt herself made each breath feel painful to Godfery Shaw.

Amelia listened to Godfery’s words, frowned, and bit her lip.

Godfery Shaw indeed was someone who didn’t waste food.

In her past life, during the five years she spent beside Godfery Shaw, she knew he wasn’t lying.

The amount for a lunch is quite large; she couldn’t finish it every day, sharing half with Godfery Shaw was just right.

Thinking of her child in her womb, she should eat well. Amelia gritted her teeth and began to eat.

Godfery Shaw now confirmed that something had indeed happened last night, lessening the intense barrier between Amelia and him.

Godfery Shaw’s gaze gradually softened, subtly moving closer to her.

Amelia seemed to have completely forgotten; they once ate like this before.

But that time, she as a child drew a line to share with the starving him.
