Chapter 200 Just Give Up!
Amelia’s onboarding went smoothly, with Leonard personally bringing her to the HR
department. She was immediately hired as a full–time employee without a probation period.
This had never happened at Harmon Group before, but Leonard insisted on it, and no one dared to say a word.
Leonard personally took Amelia to the design department, introducing her seriously, while all the colleagues looked at me oddly.
However, within just one morning, rumors began to spread throughout the workgroup.
“Didn’t Mr. Harmon just save Ms. Green? I thought they were deeply in love.”
“People always want what they don’t have. Look how attentive Mr. Harmon is to the
newcomer.
“They went to the same school, so who knows how long they might have been together?”
“Is this just a case of stand–in love? They’re all studying design, and it turns out Mr. Harmon is interested in the new colleague?”
I chose to ignore my colleagues‘ discussions. After all, Leonard had plenty of women around him before, so one more fling wouldn’t affect me
Yet, once this reached the Harmons, it had become a problem. Ian directly sent someone to take me and Leonard to the Harmon residence.
When I got into the car, I could feel him clearly shifting away from me, trying not to sit too close.
I also scooted over a bit to maintain my distance from him.
He let out a cold grunt, and I was truly at a loss for words. This didn’t feel like he went back to his college self; instead, it felt more like he’d regressed to his kindergarten days.
However, I couldn’t be bothered to argue with someone who was mentally unstable.
When we arrived at the Harmon residence, Ian asked Leonard a few questions.
He seemed to remember everything work–related, but he was a bit confused, especially when it came to me. He basically shifted everything onto Amelia.
Jan looked at Leonard with frustration, then pointed at me. “Don’t you remember this is the wife you went to such lengths to marry?”
“Impossible, I don’t even like her,” Leonard replied, shaking his head firmly, I closed my eyes, unwilling to speak.

“You don’t like her? If you don’t like her, then why did you ask me to let her be part of our family?”
“If you don’t like her, why did you nearly get killed trying to save her?”
“If you don’t like her, after all these years, you… forget it!”
Ian was quite angry with Leonard and finally decided to stop speaking.
Leonard looked at me suspiciously and asked, “You didn’t say anything to my grandpa, did you?”
I stepped aside in disdain. If I said one more thing to him, I felt like I’d lose my mind.
Leonard looked at me for a moment before shaking his head firmly. He said, “Impossible! She must have been clinging to me in college and made Amy angry.
