"A long distance? How come?" Maggie didn't understand, "If you like each other, you should be together bravely. What are you worried about?"
"You're free now. You just said that because you haven't fallen in love with someone yet. I'm waiting to see how you will act when you fall in love with someone." Amanda smiled.
Maggie didn't care about it at all and blinked her eyes. She was taken good care of these days. Her skin was pale and tender. The dietary and maintenance of Zhao family must be the top level. After all, it was a medical family. And they were more experienced in health care than others.
Amanda was chatting with Maggie in the room. From time to time a servant came to send Maggie tonic. It seemed that they really valued Maggie as the daughter-in-law.
After a while, the servant came again to knock on the door, and the speech was interrupted for several times. Maggie was somewhat unhappy, and said directly, "Don't knock again, and don't send me any tonics."
The servant answered respectfully, "My lady, her ladyship asked me to tell you. Since Miss Xia is here, can you take Miss Amanda downstairs to have a chat if you are well enough."
"Miss Xia, it's Josie from Xia Group. Why is she here for no reason?" Maggie murmured and said, "Okay, I'll go downstairs."
Amanda shivered and asked, "Who is Miss Xia you are talking about?"
Maggie waved her hand and answered lazily, "She is a lady from Xia family. I have met her twice. She is a workaholic. But she is on good terms with Mrs. Zhao, and she came to visit us from time to time. So, do you know her?"
Amanda lied on Maggie's bed and whined.
Startled, Maggie immediately sat up and touched her hair, "What's wrong, dear? Tell me what happened."
"I originally thought it was nothing, but now I feel that I am so unlucky. I was slapped in the face and then was forced to lose my job." Amanda said in a depressed tone. To her surprise, the terrorist Josie that she had been avoiding was a relative of Zhao family. Was this a small world? Or they just met by a narrow road?
"What? Whom are you talking about? How dare he hit you? Let me see if you got hurt anywhere. This is going too far!" Maggie's anger mounted. She held Amanda's face in her hands, and Amanda looked away. "The one who hit me was Mr. Gu's daughter, Mrs. Colleen, who's married to Lin Group." she said, shaking her head.
"What? Which Colleen? Bell?" Maggie blinked.
Amanda said, "She's the aunt of Lionel. Mr. Gu had given her five percent of stock shares after she got married, so she was called Mrs. Colleen. After she slapped me, Darren told her that he wouldn't let her go easily. Then Nicholas withdrew a case, and everyone thought that they offended Nicholas, so Lin family's stock suddenly shrank. Afterwards, Mr. Gu held a banquet and invited us to fix the relationship."
"Wow, I just heard about the stock price from other people. I don't care about it at all. I didn't expect it to be so thrilling. It seems that An family treats you well. But if you offend the members of Gu family in this way, it will be difficult for you and Lionel in the future." Maggie frowned, and then waved her hand, "It's not that difficult. If you are bullied, you have to fight back, otherwise you will only be bullied again in the future. Have you lost your job because of this?"
