Devil President's Night Bride novel Chapter 52

Amanda looked at all the files sorted in order, then she looked at Gregorio's calm face with no expression, she didn't know whether the tasty pie from the heaven was poisoned.

"Mrs. Amanda, you are young and promising. You and Mr. Darren are a perfect match!" Mr. Zhang shook hands with her.

"I'm flattered." Amanda responded politely.

After she got the executed contract, Gregorio took it directly and put it in the briefcase.

"Mrs. Amanda, Mr. Darren will leave in ten minutes." Sophie came to notify. She smiled when she saw Gregorio. They were brother and sister, and Amanda couldn't help but admire how excellent they were.

On the way, Amanda looked out of the window at the scenery passing by. When she got a call from Maggie, she found that Darren was resting with his eyes closed. He frowned with displeasure.

Amanda ignored his feeling. When she answered the call, a scream came from the other end of the line. The scream frightened Darren who was taking a rest, Gregorio in the driver's seat and Sophie in the front passenger seat.

Amanda covered her ear and yelled, "Maggie, Maggie, calm down. Don't take things too hard. I don't want to be deaf now."

A phone call was no longer enough to vent the bitterness of Maggie. She cried, "Why did I have that damn coffee with you? This son of a bitch is haunting me all the time. He actually asked me to go to the remote village to forget the sweetness and recall the bitterness in the past. Is that human's work? He also said that it was arranged by the hospital to voluntary treat patients."

"What? How could you run so far to the mountain area? Aren't you going to teach in the school?" Amanda's eyes were widened in shock.

"It's only one week. My parents think it's a good thing for me to do that. They called the principal without hesitation because the principal is a student of my grandfather. He doesn't want to stop me. My mother is packing my luggage. I'd better go to your place and hide." Maggie said.

"Okay, you can come then." Amanda heard her crying so hard.

Maggie sobbed, "It's so good to have a bestie. It's a good chance for me to help you deal with that bastard, Darren. If he dares to lay a finger on you again, I'll cripple him."

For a moment, it was dead silent inside the car, feeling awkward.

Amanda looked up carefully, but when she met Darren's furious gaze, the corner of her mouth twitched. She said to the phone, "When will you come?"

Maggie wiped away her tears, "I have thought for a while. It's too unsafe to go to your place. I'd better go out. After my mother gets ready, I will run directly. By the way, you and Lionel..."

"I'm fine." Amanda interrupted what Maggie was going to say suddenly. Maggie was shocked, just heard Amanda speaking really fast, "My work is going well. My schedule is pretty full. I'm quite busy right now and have things to do. Bye, love you." Hanging up the phone, Amanda took a deep breath. She looked out of the window to avoid the killing sights from Darren.

Silence permeated in the car again. None of them said a word, and the air was heavy among them.

Another phone call came in. Amanda looked at it and answered it carefully.
