When Richard asked Amy if she liked the gift, Amy only gave him the runaround. It was so obvious that Richard frowned.
"Oh, so what do you like about it?" Richard took a bite of the bun gracefully and asked.
What was wrong with Richard? What did she like about it? She already told him she liked it!
"Every part? It's great." Amy finished her porridge. She was very busy. She didn't have time to talk such nonsense.
"Man, take your time. I got to go."
Richard was stunned. Amy had different addresses for him every day. "Mr. Carter" at first, then "honey" and now just a "man".
After saying that, Amy stood up and left. She also found that she had said that wrong. So, she just wanted to run away now. She didn't want Richard to catch her again.
Noticing that Amy left in a hurry, Richard did not say anything. He had a lot of work today. After going on a business trip for days, he had to deal with much work during the day as he came back, so he could spend the night with Amy.
Amy ran into the room and closed the door. Oops, why did she call Richard “man”? she covered her mouth and felt lucky that he seemed not to hear that. From now on, she got to be careful and cautious with her words.
Amy opened the documents and focused on her work. She shut out everything again.
"Mrs. Carter, Mr. Carter called just now. He'll take you to a reception tonight. He wants you to take the gift he gave you and he will pick you up soon." In the afternoon, Robin said to Amy as she finished her work and went downstairs for some fruits.
"I have to go with him?" Amy didn't want to go anywhere with Richard. Their marriage was mainly in name only, and they would get divorced soon. Of course Amy didn't want to go out with Richard.
"Yes," Robin replied seriously.
"Alright then. Forget it." Amy continued to eat the fruit. Never mind. She could go there with Richard. Maybe she could find a lot of yummy food at the reception.
Thinking about food, Amy was relieved. Perhaps Richard only brought her as a cover. He actually wanted to bring Allison with him.
Besides, Richard had doctors treat her father. Of course she could help Richard to pay him back! After all, he had paid her father's medical bills. And that was a huge sum of money!
Just after Amy packed the things Richard sent her, he came back home. Then she got into the car soon.
"Have you brought everything?" Richard asked.
"Yeah, sure." Amy still didn't know why Richard asked her to bring so many things.
"Alright." Richard didn't say anything else and drove Amy to a beauty salon.
"Dress her up. We're going to Mr. Newell's reception. So, we don't want something too fancy. Just keep it simple." Looking at Amy's beautiful face, Richard suddenly regretted bringing her to the public.
"Alright, Richard. You don't want this young lady to look too beautiful, do you?" The stylist was very handsome, and his voice was very gentle.
"Yeah. That's what I mean." Richard even regretted bringing Amy here.
"Mm. I know." The stylist brought Amy in.
"Amy, look at your fine features. I always feel like I've seen you somewhere before," The stylist said to Amy.
