Chapter 376
The smile on Amelia's face disappeared when she saw Gilbert's miserable condition.
She pointed at Gilbert and questioned Alice in a harsh voice, "That's what you meant when you said he has
woken up! Huh?"
In case that Amelia would misunderstand, Alice hurried to explain, "Amelia, listen, in a medical sense, your
father has regained his consciousness. As for his mobility, I'm afraid..."
Alice wanted to speak but stopped. Amelia's heart sank. She rushed straight to the doctor and asked, "Doctor, |
am the patient's daughter. Tellthe truth, is that normal for my father to be in such a condition?"
The doctor adjusted his glasses and said, "Your father has a stroke, which manifests itself in a crooked mouth,
the failure of speaking fluently, and even inability to take care of himself. But you don't have to despair. Your
father can see and hear you now. He just can't move."
Just?
The simple word from the doctor was a blow to the family.
Amelia squatted beside the wheelchair, brought Gilbert's bent hand to her cheek, and murmured, "Dad, why did
such a thing have to happen to you?"
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt the fingers on her cheek move. It was slight, but she could feel
it. She looked at Gilbert with her eyes full of tears. "Dad, you can hearand know that I'm Amelia, right?"
Facing her expectant face, Gilbert didn't move his fingers...
Amelia was a little disappointed, but she had heard that if patients were told something pleasant, they could be
stimulated and recover faster.
So she said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them, "About Mom, | have already forgiven you. As
long as you get better soon, | have no objection to whoever you want to be with. I wish you and Alice
happiness... Dad."
Amelia's voice was low, but Alice still heard it. She had mixed feelings. She had been looking forward to this and
waited for this so many years. Just when she thought that Amelia would never recognize their relationship,
Amelia wished Gilbert and her happiness...
She hoped it would not be too late.

behind her, whispered, "I don't think Mr. Gilbert's doing very well." Director B echoed Director A, "That's an
understatement. His condition couldn't have been worse! Now he can't even stand up, let alone return to his
position in the company!" Kaleb shook his head affectedly. "Everyone, after seeing Gilbert's current condition, I'm
convinced once again that supporting Daniel is a wise choice. What do you think?"
Director C agreed, "Yes. After all, both his daughters are incompetent even with help. Poor Gilbert. He has been
working for the company for half his life, only to find that finally it would be taken over by an outsider. If | were
him, | would have long died out of anger!"
While they were chatting, Amelia clenched her fists tighter and tighter. She had tolerated the former part of the
conversations, but the latter was so rude that she stopped suddenly.
Kaleb didn't expect Amelia to turn around abruptly and nearly bumped into her. He looked up at her and asked,
confused, "Well, Amelia, why do you stop?"
Amelia looked at him with cold eyes and turned her fury into a faint smile. "Uncle, you seem to be very
optimistic about Daniel's future in the company."
Embarrassment flashed across Kaleb's face. No matter how slow he was, he realized what he had said had been
heard by Amelia. "Amelia, it's not what you think."
"Then what is it?" Amelia asked.
Amelia continued, "Uncle, don't blme for not reminding you. You're a Ramsay, and he is a Phillips. It's
reasonable for him to support and even kiss your ass when he needs you. But when he's in power, do you think
he will treat you the way my father did?"
Kaleb, who had been brainwashed by Daniel, actually said, "Amelia, you're thinking too much. Daniel is Brittany's
husband. He and Brittany will have children. Aren't they Ramsays? In a word, he is our family!" Amelia laughed,
although she was furious, "So by cursing my father, you want the leader of the company to be changed as soon
as possible?"
In the face of Amelia's harsh criticism, all the directors’ faces ashened in various degrees. One of them sneered,
"What do you know? If you are that capable, you should cand run the company!"
He was trying to shut Amelia up by saying that, but she retorted, "Am | talking about the company? I'm
discussing Daniel with you! Since you're working for a man who was able to replace the construction materials
with inferior ones, your own qualities are doubtful!"
"Besides, my father is not as healthy as before, but it doesn't mean that he can't recover. If you want a new
leader now, you should at least wait until he dies, shouldn't you?"

"Well, Amelia, don't worry. No matter how terrible the situation could be, | would be there. I'll never allow those
evil people to take advantage of the company."
Kaleb smoothed the topic over and led the group to leave, looking frustrated.
Amelia's bluff didn't disappear until they were finally out of her sight. Now she could only intimidate them by the
shares her mother had left her. As for the future of the company, it still depended on how fast Gilbert could
recover.

Patrick, Florence blinked and said, "Yo, Patrick, where did you have fun last night?" Patrick did not reply.
Florence took a bite of her toast and kept asking, "By the way, did you find Amelia last night?"
At the mention of Amelia, Patrick froze. After the "accident" last night, he didn't know how to face her.
