Chapter 284
Having bottled up his emotions for several days, it reached its peak after visiting the Lamont family, and
finally erupted at this moment.
The man’s handsome and refined face was twisted, and his eyes became hideously terrifying as he
vented his anger on Leah’s face with punch after punch.
It was all because of Leah, all because of the Burke family!
Otherwise, he would’ve been the Lamont family’s son–in–law, and not only he would bez the vice
president but even the entire company could’ve
been his!
But now, he had nothing!
He took out all his resentment on Leah, beating her until she wailed in agony. And the more Nicolas
heard her cries, the more excited he became! After beating up Leah, Nicolas ran away!

found a house to live in temporarily, and planned to permanently sever ties with the Burke family, find a
job, and start over.
However, every time he went for an interview, as soon as the other party saw his resume, they rejected
him without even giving him a chance for self–introduction.
After trying several companies, he began to feel that something was wrong. He asked a friend who was
doing well and found out that the Lamont family had given orders, forbidding all companies in J City
from hiring him.
Upon hearing this news, Nicolas froze for a moment, his face turning ashen!
He finally realized how the Burke family was wiped out!
On Wednesday, Estelle didn’t have to go to Midnight Bar and remembered that it had been a long time
since she saw Max, so she decided to visit Villa del Sol.
Calvin loved Emily’s caramel cookies, so Estelle went to the dessert store first.
As she entered the store, she smelled the creamy fragrance. Estelle ordered herself a pudding and a
chocolate cake.
Emily brought the desserts over with a sneaky grin, “I added a layer of ice cream for you.”
Estelle gratefully looked at her, grabbed a spoon, and digged in.
The store wasn’t busy in the morning, so Emily chatted with Estelle for a while. As they were talking, a
short–haired girl came over to deliver pudding, smiling at Estelle, “Emily, is this your friend?”
Emily introduced her with a smile, “Yeah, my best friend, Estelle!”
She then introduced Amiee to Estelle, “This is our shop manager, Amiee.”
Estelle nodded at Amiee, who acknowledged her cooly, “I have to get back to work. You two chat!”
With that, Amiee turned and walked away with her tray.
Emily whispered, “Isn’t our manager cool?”
Estelle glanced at Amiee, a girl about twenty–five years old, very thin and tall with short hair, indeed
giving off a cool vibe.

Emily continued, “She’s amazing, my senior from college. By the time I went to college, she was
already a legend on campus. It’s said that a top hacker tried to break into our school’s computer
system, but Amiee had already set up a security net. Not only did the hacker fail to penetrate, but he
was also got exposed on the school website by her! Since then, Amiee has become a campus legend!”
Estelle turned to look at Amiee again, her fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard, her profile cold and
nonchalant.
Estelle asked, “She has graduated, right? How come instead of doing her major related job, she
becomes your store manager?”
Emily shrugged, “I’m not sure. She graduated two years ago and it seems that she has never been
engaged in the computing industry. But, I heard her family is very wealthy.”
