Chapter 598
Amelia thought that it was okay for her to just stand there. However, the next second, she heard Jonathan said,
"Please be seated."
"Alright." Considering that the seats were small, Amelia took a seat next to Jonathan.
After Amelia sat down, she took a check from the briefcase which was handed over by Jonathan. Then she gave
it to the old lady with two hands. "Lady, I'm sorry about what happened to your son. It's all our Apex
Construction Corporation's fault. We're willing to pay three times the labor contract's salary as compensation and
for the mental damage. | hope you can accept this..."
When the old lady was about to take the check, the young woman suddenly said, "Mom, we can't take the
money! If we take the money, they will ignore about the accident! Then my husband's death would never be
justified!"
The old woman turned her head and sighed, "Then what do you want to do?"
"I'm going to sue them! I'm going to sue Apex Construction Corporation, a company that killed people. | will sue
them so that they can no longer harm others!"
Amelia's hands which were holding the check trembled slightly.
The old lady shook her head and said, "Have you ever thought about if we don't accept this money, how are we
able to solve our financial problem? Can you as a housewife pay for your father's treatment fees, the two
children's tuition fee, and my pension expenses?"
The young woman froze immediately.
"I'll keep this check for you for the tbeing." After saying this, the old lady took the check from Amelia's palm
and said something that made her heart ache, "With this money, at least our family will have something..."
Meanwhile, the old lady's two grandsons entered the living room after hearing the noise. Before she had tto
say anything, the young woman holding the two kids in each hand. Then she kneeled close to them and talked
something to their ears. "Keep an eye on her and remember her face. She is your father's murderer. You would
never forget her face all your life!"
Amelia frowned and thought to herself, "How can a mother teach her kids to be hateful?"
When the two half-grown kids listened to their mother's words, they did not have the ability to tell right from
wrong, so they glared at Amelia angrily.
One of them picked up a toy from the floor and threw it at Amelia.
"President Ramsay, are you alright?" Jonathan glanced sideways and saw that Amelia's red eyes were full of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttears. He thought that she was hurt by the toys, but he did not expect that she was feeling sad for the family...
"I'm alright." She hid the sadness in her eyes. Amelia bent down, picked up the toy that fell on the floor that hit
her. She got up and gave it to the elder boy. She asked softly, "Who bought you this toy?" The little boy turned
his head away stubbornly. However, tears streamed down his face.
Amelia said softly, "It was your father who bought it right? Since it was bought by your father, you should cherish
it more."
The boy didn't reply.
The next second, he grabbed the toy back and held it tightly in his arms.
"Now it's right." Amelia's eyes softened.
The boy turned and ran back to the room, as if he were blaming Amelia for talking too much. His younger brother
kept calling and chasing after him... Amelia knew that the kids went back to their rooms to reminiscence their
father.
Amelia looked back and said to Jonathan, "Let's go to the next family."
The first stop for the family visit could be considered successful for her. However, the following visits were not as
smooth as she had expected.
As soon as Amelia introduced herself, speople immediately chased after her to beat her. Although Jonathan
was strict, he always protected her at these time. When she thought about an old man in his fifties would protect
her from being hit by punches and slaps, she felt emotional. It felt the sway like her father was suffering for
her.
Sometimes the family members were too agitated and bullied them so much that Amelia had to throw the check
and ran away with Jonathan.
In the car...
Amelia looked as if she had almost lost her life. She looked at Jonathan who was half dead as well.
With just one look, her eyes suddenly widened. "Uncle Tucker, where did your hair go?"
Jonathan rubbed his own bald head and said sulkily, "Someone tore off my wig when we were on the way!"
When Amelia heard this, she was so surprised that she almost bit off her tongue. "Wig!"
Jonathan rolled his eyes at her. "Yes. What's the fuss about? It's normal forto get bald since I'm old, right?
And am | not allowed to wear a wig?"
Amelia was afraid of offending him. So she waved her hands and said, "No. It's just that your wig quality is so
good that | can't tell it's fake!"
Jonathan's eyes were brimming with tears. "It's because of this reason that my heart ached. Where am | going to
buy such a good wig again? If | return to the company like this, Kaleb will definitely have an opportunity to laugh
at me!"
Amelia had never seen Jonathan so sad before. She suggested, "Why don't we go to the wig shop on the next
stop?"
Jonathan collapsed on the leather chair and asked, "Aren't you tired?"
Amelia replied, "I'm fine."
Jonathan asked again, "Does your body hurt?"
It hurt!

However, when she thought of how Jonathan had been protecting her, she endured the pain and said, "It doesn't
hurt, | can still hold on."
Jonathan did not say anything else and asked the driver to send them to the wig shop.
As the night fell, Amelia dragged her injured and tired body back to the Land of Fragrance.

Dr. Scarlett took a bottle of fruit juice from the refrigerator and said, "Here. Drink this. | just squeezed the

"Thank you." After receiving the orange juice, Amelia took a sip of it.
The pain on Amelia's face and the injured corner of her lips were frozen by the cold drink. She felt as if she had

Dr. Scarlett stood there and looked down at Amelia's scalp that had been pulled out of her head. She asked
sadly, "Those mobs are so cruel, why don't you call the police?"
