    Chapter 206 Humiliated


    When I got back to the office, Leonard had his assistant bring some documents down to the design department, and then he sat right next to Amelia.


    "If you


    won''te upstairs, then I''lle down here. It''s all the same to me. So, what do you want for afternoon tea? I ordered cherries and strawberries. Don''t you love strawberry yogurt? I got that for you too." Leonard was being overly attentive, and my coworkers were stunned.


    Especially when he mentioned Amelia''s favorite snacks, a lot of people nced over at me. Everyone knew I was the one who liked those "girly" treats. Jean even joked before that I had the spirit of a kid.


    I''d always been like this, even back in college. Leonard used to tease me for not growing up. But every time he earned some money from part-time jobs, he''d always remember to buy me desserts. It became a habit.


    Especially before my cancer came back. When I treated everyone to afternoon tea, it was always something strawberry-vored.


    Seeing the bandage on the back of Leonard''s head, some coworkers started specting in the group chat.


    "Do you think Mr. Harmon hurt his brain? Everything he ordered is what Eva likes."


    "Maybe, maybe. All the romance novels I''ve read are like this: Mr. President gets amnesia, goes through hell to win back his love."


    "Wait, seriously? Does that mean the orders he gives won''t hold up in court? Like, he''s not legally responsible?"Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    As I watched my coworkers inch closer to the truth, panic set in. If people really found out that the president of Harmon Group was having memory issues, it could affect the entirepany. When Leonard came down to the design department, people started whispering Finally, Jean couldn''t hold it in anymore. "Mr. Harmon, if you''re trying to win someone over, could you maybe not do it outside the office? This is affecting our work. And the flowers, the desserts-you two can enjoy those somewhere else. Stop disrupting the work environment."


    Once Jean spoke up, the others started toin too.


    "Yeah, who are they trying to impress?"


    "It''s bad enough we have to work here, now we have to watch the boss and his girlfriend unt it?"


    "And isn''t she supposed to be Eva''s good friend? What''s really going on here?"

    Everyone was chiming in, and Leonard''s face darkened, though he seemed to realize he was in the wrong and didn''t defend himself.


    But Amelia couldn''t take it anymore. She mmed her hand on the desk and red at Leonard. "Leave!"


    Her eyes were red, as if she had been deeply wronged.


    I had just finished discussing a deal with a business partner and rushed over to smooth things. out. "Alright, everyone, stop talking. This has nothing to do with Amelia."


    Leonard immediatelyshed out at me, "Oh, sure, now you want to y the hero? Why didn''t you say something earlier?


    "Eva, don''t think I don''t know what you''re up to. You''ve been trying to seduce me since college! But Amelia and I are together. I''d never choose you over her, so stop trying to manipte me! "Eva, you think I forgot what you did back then-


    "Leonard, enough!" Amelia''s voice cracked, tears streaming down her face. "Haven''t you humiliated me enough? You want me to be your secretary? Fine. I''ll move right now."


    Amelia quickly wiped her tears and began packing up her desk. Both Leonard and I tried to help, but she refused.


    Finally, she stood at the door with her box, ncing back at Leonard. "Mr. Harmon, aren''t you going back to your office? Or are you staying here in the design department?" "Fine, I''ll go back. Let''s go." Leonard didn''t even look at me as he followed her out.


    The office finally quieted down.
