Amanda hesitated and then requested Gerben to turn around.
She thought about the meeting between Casimir and Abbott which would happen sooner or later. She could even arrange this. However, Stanford was linked to the progress of her revenge.
If he realized what was happening, then all her efforts would be wasted.
She saw Stanford standing by the roadside as soon as she arrived back at the J&Y Group. She had a bad feeling about it. The car stopped and she opened the car door.
“Mr. James…” She said as Stanford grabbed her wrist.
“What are you doing?” Amanda frowned and asked, “Mr. James, let me know what’s wrong with the plan and I’ll amend it.”
Stanford did not bother and continued to firmly pull her towards his car.
Gerben saw that something was not right and went down to stop Stanford, “Please release her.”
Amanda was struggling as well.
Stanford was sullen and said, “I have something to discuss with Ms. Flores. You’d better not interfere.”
“I’m Ms. Flores’ bodyguard. It’s my responsibility to interfere if you are mistreating her.” Gerben raised his fists.
“Ms. Flores, get him to stand down if you still want to work with me!” Stanford grabbed onto her wrist and did not look like he was about to release her. He turned around and looked at her, “I just want to look for somewhere private to speak to you. Why are you so defensive?”
Amanda retorted, “This is Mr. James’ company. Isn’t this suitable for us to talk?”
“Not here.” Stanford lowered his voice significantly. Now he was seventy per cent sure she was Amanda, otherwise, why would she be so reluctant to be seen at his workplace with him?
The weather was becoming gloomy. The two of them were at an impasse.
