Chapter 202 Chapter 202 Got Your Back Amelia was staying at a hotel near the Harmon residence. Before I could even try to stop her, she had already gotten out of the car.

That night, I sent her a Whatmessage, telling her not to act on impulse, but she didn't reply.

I thought she was just upset. After all, the design department at Harmon Group had quite the reputation, and I didn't think she'd give up such a good opportunity. But I was wrong. The next day, I received her resignation letter.

"HR needs your signature, Eva. If everything's fine, I'll finalize my resignation. We shouldn't have bypassed the rules to begin with-now it's even more complicated." Amelia kept her head down the whole time, lost in her own thoughts.

I tossed the resignation aside. "Amelia, think about it. Leonard might be better by tomorrow. Don't you want to keep working withand Emma, like back in college?" Back in college, our dorm was really tight-knit. Even though Amelia was a bit of a loner, she still joined in on our activities. We did projects and designs together and even worked on-site for inspections. I always thought we had a solid bond.

But she shook her head firmly. "No, Eva. Just sign it. I'm leaving the company immediately." "Why should she?" Leonard suddenly barged into my office and ripped the resignation letter to shreds.

"Eva, you've gone too far. You're just a director. What gives you the right to fire her?" Seeing Leonard acting so brainless, I wished I could knock him out again. Men really were at their best when they were unconscious.

I picked up one of the torn pieces and pointed to the two words on it. "It's a resignation letter. What, did your brain break? Can't you read anymore?" "It was my decision to resign. This has nothing to do with Eva," Amelia stepped back, putting sdistance between her and Leonard.

Leonard coughed awkwardly, then glared at me. Even so, you forced her into it! I brought Amelia into this company-she's not leaving just because you say so. Eva, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're my wife in name. This company's called Harmon, not yours!" His voice was filled with anger, and since the office door was open, a crowd had gathered outside. Rumors about Leonard's new fling had been spreading around the company. I didn't need to hear what they were whispering to know they were probably gossiping about him and Amelia. Amelia kept her head down, while Leonard stood protectively in front of her, as if shielding her from me.

"Eva!" "Leonard, are you done with this tantrum? I never said I wanted her to quit, and I'm not approving it. If you want to keep making a scene, then please, take it outside!" I kept telling myself he was sick, that his brain was not working right, and that he was not thinking straight. But no matter how much I tried, I couldn't stop the anger bubbling up.

Amelia hesitated, then gently tugged at his sleeve. "Leonard, I won't quit. Please, don't be mad." Watching her do that madefeel a little dazed. I used to comfort Leonard the sway....

Sure enough, the next second, Leonard immediately turned to look at her. "You'd better not lie to me! Even if she tries to fire you, don't worry, I'll stand up for you." Amelia pressed her lips together, then nodded at him.

Leonard let out a big sigh of relief m "Alright, then get back to work." He turned back to glare at me.

"Don't worry, she won't do anything to you. I've got your back."

He grabbed Amelia's hand and led her out of the office This time, she didn't resist.

I watched as he seated her at her desk, carefully fixing her hair. My eyes welled up again. Manked the blinds shut unable to stand watching this pathetic scene any longer. Leonard, everything you did today-l'd remember it all. Clam Bonus For Free Every
