Chapter 758Chapter 758
“What's the matter, Mrs. Clinton?” Jolin returned with food and saw Amelia staring blankly at her
computer screen.
Amelia returned to her senses and shook her head. “It's nothing. What did you get for me?”
“They're all your favorites, Mrs. Clinton.” Jolin opened up the takeaway boxes and said, “Eat first,
okay? You're straining yourself. If Mr. Clinton sees it, his heart will ache for you.”
Amelia picked up a fork and got Jolin to sit next to her. After giving Jolin a fork, she said, “Eat with me.
I'm not straining myself. This is something I love doing. It would be a shame to stop doing something I
love, no?”
Jolin felt rather helpless. Undeniably, Amelia looked even more attractive when she was focused on
work.
After they ate, Amelia went back to work.
She was kept busy until around five in the evening. That was when she was summoned into Shane's
office.
“Did you want to see me, Mr. Franklin?” At work, that was how Amelia addressed Shane.
Shane waved her over. “Have a seat.” Amelia walked toward him and sat down.
Shane crossed his arms and expressed, “I'm sorry for your loss, Amelia. I'm not good with words, so I
don't know how to comfort you. However, I'm glad you're back at work. With you back here, I know I
have another trustworthy person I can work with.”
Amelia flashed a half-smile. “I'm all right. Of course, I'm deeply saddened by my mother's passing, but
she passed away peacefully without suffering. I'm grateful for that.” Nevertheless, she had some
regrets as she didn't get to talk to Eleanor before the latter passed away.
“It's good that you can come to terms with it. In fact, you look well. How's everything? Are you coping
well after being away for a couple of months?”
Amelia nodded. “I can manage.”
Without wasting any more time, Shane whipped out a document and said, “This is an advertisement
project from Atlas Corporation. Have a look at it. I'm planning to get you to design for them. If you can
do that, your reputation overseas will grow. I believe in your abilities.”
Amelia flipped through the document and remarked, “This is huge! Why did Atlas Corporation choose
us? I thought they'd get someone bigger than us to work with. After all, they're well known in the
country.”
“Because of you, Mr. Clinton gave us the opportunity to work with them. He worked hard to give you the
chance to get exposure in the Erihal market. You must be happy with what your husband is willing to do
for you!” Shane laughed. Amelia was startled. Never did she expect Oscar to do that for her. Since Clinton Corporations lobbied
for the project, Atlas Corporation wouldn't need to worry about offending Clinton Corporations when
they expand into the market in Tayhaven. No wonder we got the chance to work on something so big.
“I'll do it. However, I won't be able to achieve much on my own. I need help from some colleagues in
the design department. After all, we're a team,” Amelia suggested.
“That's up to you. I won't interfere with your decisions,” Shane answered gladly.
“Mr. Franklin, you shouldn't spoil me. What if I take advantage of your trust and sell off your company?
You will lose everything!” Amelia uttered in a half-joking manner.
“Will you do that?” Shane was amused.
Amelia didn't respond to that.
“All right. Get back to work, okay? Let me know if you need anything,” Shane said.
“Okay. I shall go now.”
Before Amelia stepped out of the door, Shane suddenly called out to her. “Amelia, Chelsea made this
for you. This will provide your body with the nutrition it needs. Take it.”
Amelia walked toward him and asked, “What is it?”
“Some supplements. She heard about your miscarriage, and she has been worried about you. I told her
the Clinton family will have everything you need, but she said it's a gesture of kindness. Please acceptit.”
Amelia felt touched. “Please thank her for me.”
Shane nodded.
Amelia then left his office and took the elevator to the design department.
Upon seeing her, Jolin asked, “Mrs. Clinton, why did Mr. Franklin ask for you?”
“He gave me an advertising job to do. Also, his wife had prepared some supplements for me.”
Jolin took the supplements and said, “Mrs. Clinton, I'll keep them safe for you.”
Amelia nodded.
Holding the document for the advertisement, Amelia went to look for the supervisor of the design
department, Lydia. Lydia was shocked when she heard that Amelia wanted her to participate in such a
huge project.
“Amelia, are you sure you want me to join you? If everything works out and Atlas Corporation likes it,
the designer of the advertisement is going to be famous in Erihal!”
She knew Oscar was the one who had given Amelia the chance to work on the advertisement.
Otherwise, there was no reason Atlas Corporation would want to work with them. After all, Atlas
Corporation was a famous company. Although our company isn't too shabby, we're still far behind the
other advertising companies in Tayhaven. It's all thanks to Oscar that our company is doing so well. Ofcourse, Oscar is only helping us because of Amelia.
“Lydia, we're a team, and we're all working to bring profits to the company. It doesn't matter if the
advertisement is done by myself or with others. Ultimately, the end product needs to meet Atlas
Corporation's expectations. Therefore, I don't think it has anything to do with getting famous in Erihal. It
would be an honor to have you help me with the advertisement,” Amelia offered sincerely.
“Okay, sure!” Lydia replied.
Amelia beamed. “Thank you, Lydia. Who else in the design department do you think we can ask for
help from?”
“We should get Jocelyn and Helen to join us. They're talented and smart. Besides, they won't betray
others for personal gains,” Lydia uttered firmly.
Amelia nodded. “All right, then.”
After chatting for a while, Amelia headed out of the supervisor's office. However, Lydia called out to her.
“Is something else the matter, Lydia?”
“No. I just came to realize why Mr. Franklin holds you in high regard. Instead of being arrogant just
because you're Mr. Clinton's wife, you're very polite and humble. I admire you, that's all,” Lydia praised.
Amelia was stunned for a moment. She then smiled and replied, “Don't flatter me, Lydia.” “No. You're that great. If you become the director of the design department next year, I'll be the first
person to congratulate you. Although you're not the eldest in the department, you're the most talented.
The design department needs to be reorganized by someone capable.”
Without a word, Amelia flashed her a smile. Then, she left the office.
She worked until seven in the evening. When she exited the building, Oscar's car had just arrived.
Amelia got into the car and asked, “Oscar, did you help me get the advertising job from Atlas
Corporation?”
Oscar nodded. “Atlas Corporation wants to work with Clinton Corporations. Hence, I gave them my
request. Since you like designing, I'll get you the best company for you to work with. That way, you'll
make a name for yourself.”
“What if I get so busy that I don't have time to accompany you?”
“That's not going to happen. I believe that you'll be able to properly manage your time. You've always
been able to maintain a healthy work-life balance. I have faith in you.”
“Why are you being so sweet?”
“Because you deserve it.”
Delighted, Amelia flashed a faint smile.
After they arrived home, they had dinner with Tony. Amelia then bathed the boy and coaxed him tosleep with a bedtime story.
When she went back to her bedroom, Oscar was showering. Seeing the jacket he had left outside, she
shook her head and walked over to it. She was about to keep the jacket for him when she spotted a
lipstick stain on it.
Her eyes gleamed, and she suppressed her suspicions. With the jacket in her hand, she went into the
bathroom. The moment she walked in, she was pulled into the shower.
Amelia couldn't help but moan a little when Oscar kissed her passionately. Still, she kept her
composure and pressed against his chest.
Oscar let go of her and asked in a deep voice, “What's wrong?”
Amelia picked the jacket up from the floor and pointed at the lipstick stain. “Oscar, do you mind telling
me what's going on?”
Oscar's gaze darkened when he saw the mark on his jacket.
“How did that get there?” he questioned.
With a smile, Amelia asked, “Oscar, this is your jacket. Why are you asking me instead?”
Oscar tried to recall what had happened earlier that day. Halfway through the meeting that morning, he
had to go to the toilet urgently and forgot to bring the jacket with him. After returning to the meeting, he
didn't check it either. Who would've thought that someone would take that opportunity to set me up? I'm pretty sure this is
Isabella's doing. If not her, who else would dare to do so? However, now is not the time to look for
Isabella. I must explain myself to Amelia first. I can't let our relationship turn sour. It would be stupid to
get into trouble with Amelia because of that woman.
