Amelia understood and nodded. “Thank you.”
Her formality made Jackson feel a little uncomfortable.
However, Amelia didn’t notice anything wrong with him. She
looked up at him and asked, “Mr. Collins, what’s the result of the bidding?”
She didn’t go to the scene yesterday afternoon, so she didn’t know the final result.
Jackson replied indifferently, “We had won the bid.”
Hearing this, Amelia was a little surprised.
Did James not give the development rights to the Moore Group?
Wasn’t Ms. Moore his lover?
She couldn’t quite figure it out, but she didn’t ask any further and said to Jackson, “Congratulations.”
Jackson didn’t like her polite and distant look. He opened his mo uth and wanted to say something but felt that he was not
Chapter 168 Is There Any Other Disease Be… qualified to do so.

Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, he stepped forward and asked, “Are you hungry?”
Amelia shook her head, only to find that her clothes had been
changed.
Her skeptical and shocked gaze fell on Jackson.
“It was the maid who helped you change it.”
Sensing the misunderstanding in her eyes, Jackson immediately explained.
Hearing this, Amelia breathed a sigh of relief.
She felt a little uncomfortable and looked at Jackson. “I’m sorry.”
Jackson waved his hand and gently said, “It’s normal for you to misunderstand.”
After he finished speaking, Amelia didn’t know how to respond.
She thought that she should get up and leave now, but her legs…
Just as she was thinking about how to ask Jackson to send her back, she heard him call out to the outside lightly.
“Cora.”

A middle-aged woman in her 40s or 50s came in with a plate after
answering.
The woman was a little fa t, and there was always a gentle smile on her face, looking very kind.
After placing the food tray on the table, she smiled and said to Amelia, “Miss, I don’t know what you like to eat, so I prepared some breakfast according to Mr. Collins’s taste. You can have some to fill your stomach, and I’ll make something delicious for
you for lunch later.”
Her kindness made Amelia feel a little less uncomfortable. “Thank
you.”
Cora waved her hand and said, “You’re welcome.”
After that, she walked out and closed the door behind her.
Amelia felt that Cora must have misunderstood something, so she
closed the door for them.
Thinking of this, she felt even more uncomfortable. She quickly struggled to sit up from the bed.
She leaned against the headboard, a little embarrassed, and asked Jackson, “Can you take me home?”
Jackson did not respond. He frowned and asked, “Do you have
Chapter 168 Is There Any Other Disease Be… any other disease besides cardiopathy?”
Seeing that he was suspicious of her, Amelia’s face suddenly
darkened.
“I’m not sick .”
“Then why do you even have to struggle to sit up?”
Amelia was stunned for a moment. No matter how well she
pretended, Jackson could see through her.
“I have an insufficient blood supply, so I feel weak when tired.”
“Insufficient blood supply?”
His tone was full of skepticism, which sounded a bit harsh to Amelia.
She coldly retorted, “Mr. Collins, do you have to hear the word “terminal illness” from my mo uth before you believe me?”
Jackson quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant. I just think…”
Amelia interrupted him coldly, “No matter what you mean, and I don’t have to report my physical condition to you, do I?”
After these words silenced Jackson, the suppressed anger in his heart suddenly burst out again.
Chapter 168 Is There Any Other Disease Be… “Amelia, can you not talk to me in this tone?”
“What kind of tone do you want me to use to talk to you, Mr. Collins? Begging? Or flattering?”
Amelia stared at Jackson without blinking.
She wanted to see if he still had any conscience.
5/5
He was the one who had broken her artificial heart and caused her heart failure. How could he blame her for speaking in such a tone?
She had already refrained from retaliating. Why couldn’t she speak to him in such a tone?!
