Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235 What’s the Fuss 

It was hard to tell if Amelia was talking about taking over as Mrs. Harmon or as the head of the design department. I didn’t even have to say anything–my colleagues jumped in, ready to defend me. 

“Mr. Harmon, all three departments‘ projects have been led by Eva. You can’t just replace her out of nowhere.”

“Exactly! We just closed the deal with Heights Group. They won’t be happy if you swap lead designer.” 

“Is it even appropriate for Ms. Miller to be stepping in across departments? The projects are nearing completion.” 

“What is this? A coup?” 

As the projects were nearing the end, it meant profits were about to be distributed. If I were removed now, I would lose my cut, and the credit for the entire project would go to Amelia. She knew it, and Leonard knew it too. 

Leonard hesitated for a moment, clearly conflicted. But as soon as Amelia tugged on his sleeve, his face hardened, and his mind was made up. 

“Eva, you’re not in good health, so it’s best if you take a break. Amelia will take over the design department.” 

“And Eva,” he added, “hand over all your project materials to Amelia. Don’t hold anything 

back.” 

I slowly released my clenched fists, letting out a long breath. “Sure.” 

Honestly, I had seen this coming. Without Leonard’s backing, Amelia wouldn’t have been so brazen. In the past, even when he loved me, Leonard would have been more cautious. Now, he was reckless, indifferent to the consequences. 

I didn’t want to fight with him anymore, whether he was genuinely confused or just pretending. I had worked hard to earn my position as the head of design, not because I was his wife, but because of my skills. 

Emma tugged at my arm, but I shook my head. 

“Let the boss make his decision. I’ll start the handover.” 

Physically, I was in no shape to argue. If Amelia wanted to take on the responsibility, I was more than happy to let her. 

Amelia’s smug expression finally showed her true colors as she stood next to me, though she tried to fake some sympathy.

“Sorry, Eva. It’s for the company’s sake. We can’t let one person hold back the entire project. 

“And honestly, your designs were flawed…” 

“You’re free to make changes or scrap them entirely. They just need to go through a new review.” My voice was calm, devoid of emotion. “I’ve already emailed you all the necessary 

files.” 

“Just give me the hard copies and your computer. That’ll do.” 

Amelia frowned, seeming a bit flustered. 

I shook my head. “Sorry, my laptop is personal property, and I make sure to leave a clear work trail to avoid any confusion about responsibilities later.” 

With so many projects on my plate, who knows what kind of trouble she’s trying to stir up? 

Even though my health isn’t great, at least I can still get treatment to keep going. 

If I really ended up in there, who knows, I might just die in prison. 

Amelia gave me a meaningful glance and then smiled. 

“Alright, then. Ms. Green, please step away from your desk.”
