After being discharged from the hospital, Amelia Bright stayed at home for a whole half month and did not go anywhere.
Candy, her assistant, ran from company to home every day, bringing the documents she needed to handle and then returning with the signed documents.
But this can’t be helped, rather than going out followed by two teams of guards, Amelia Bright still feel more low-key work at home, but fortunately there are injuries need to recuperate this excuse, otherwise others think she posed young grandmother stand it.
The Austin Group, people who want to ask the Austin to do things, relatives of the Austin family and the Bright family, all seized this opportunity and rushed to send gifts, but without exception, they were all blocked by Adjutant Xun. The people arranged by Adjutant Xun blocked them back.
“Madam, according to your instructions, all the people who came to visit the sick have been turned back.”
“Everything was confiscated, right?”
Amelia Bright crossed her legs on the sofa to get high on melon seeds and casually glanced towards the courtyard, “Why do I see more stuff than two days ago?”
The guard scratched his head, “I just couldn’t stop them, they wouldn’t take it away, they put it down and ran, they couldn’t even catch up.”
Since these people came to give gifts, they must have asked to do something, see Amelia Bright did not see people, they are naturally not willing, there are one or two leaders will bring the gifts in the courtyard, the back of the follow the example, a few days down, those gifts are piled up into a mountain.
Amelia Bright grabbed a handful of melon seeds and went to the window, saw the mountain of gifts outside, and looked at the cloudy sky, it was about to rain, if we didn’t get rid of it, we must all get wet.
“Take an inventory of who sent these things, and find someone to send them back one by one.”
“Yes, madam.”
These people don’t even know how to send a gift, and they are adding to her workload.
Amelia Bright was afraid that the security guards might have made some mistakes, so she helped her in the yard, and when she was halfway done, there was a sound of an engine outside the yard.
“Let’s say I’m not here.”
Just a short while after hiding inside the house, a familiar voice came from outside.
“I’m not here to deliver a gift, what do I need to tell you to find my sister-in-law?”
It was Halyn Austin.
“Amelia Bright, I know you’re home, don’t pretend, I just saw you, come out and open the door.”
Even Joziah Austin also came to Chambers with some ginseng tonic, but Halyn Austin did not come.
Today this is the sun came out of the west?
Since she was here, Amelia Bright could not stop the second young lady outside, even though she did not sound like she had anything good to do, but she opened the door.
Only after opening the door did she realize that along with Halyn Austin, there was also Jay Mo.
The moment she saw Jay Mo, she frowned slightly, and met Jay Mo’s affectionate eyes, she was forced to hold back the millions of vomit inside, before she reluctantly moved to the side.
“Halyn and Doctor Mo are here? Come on in.”
Why in the world would Jay Mo come with Halyn Austin?
The relationship between the Mo family and the Austin family has been a bit frosty since their engagement fell through, Jay Mo obviously shuns Halyn Austin, and Halyn Austin is explicitly forbidden by Erlina Lee to be a fan.
After entering the house, Amelia Bright made tea and greeted the two to sit down.
“Didn’t you say you were home sick? I see you’re alive and well,” Halyn Austin said, “so you’re not taking this opportunity to be lazy at home, are you?”
Before Amelia Bright could say anything, Jay Mo explained.
“Halyn, I’ve seen Amelia’s case, she has a brain injury, and she needs to stay home and recuperate to avoid secondary injuries.”
Looking at Halyn Austin’s indignant face that said ‘you’re still speaking for her’, Amelia Bright changed the subject.
“I’m doing better, I’ll be out with Farren for the state dinner in a couple of days, and then I can go to work normally.
“I’m not here to see you,” Halyn Austin said with a crossed eyebrow and arrogance, “I wouldn’t have come to see you if Jay Mo hadn’t asked me to accompany him.”
As soon as these words fell, Amelia Bright glanced at Jay Mo, who was also looking at her, and the two of them looked at each other, becoming more and more embarrassed.
Amelia Bright really wanted to cut Jay Mo’s head open to see what was inside, why did he always put her in the most awkward situation, what was he thinking that he would let Halyn Austin accompany him to see himself.
“Ahem.” She cleared her throat and said, “Doctor Mo used to take care of Chambers at the Austin family, and all my cases went through his hands, so this time he was sick again and he was worried about the patients.”
Nima, feeling more and more dark.
After sitting dry for a while, three or two pleasantries were met with varying degrees of disdain from Halyn Austin, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more stagnant, just as Amelia Bright felt like a needle on pins and needles.
“You can have this.” Jay Mo handed out a box.
“What’s this?”
“Some old stuff.”
She hesitated for a moment and opened the box. When she saw the contents, the fidgeting on her face faded away and her emotions became complicated all of a sudden.
Inside was a small handful of fairy wands that had been neatly yarded.
Amelia Bright’s memories instantly came flooding back like a tidal wave, the time when she first married into the Austin family, she rarely thought about it deliberately.
Three years ago, she had just married into the Austin family, and on her wedding night, when she learned that she had married not Joziah Austin, but a cold, crippled man, she was almost as good as dead.
Erlina Lee saw her discontent written on her face and did not look kindly on her, saying that she did not know what was good for her and often sneered at her, she was treated like a servant by Erlina Lee and Halyn Austin, mother and daughter, not to mention that Erlina Lee even warned her for the reason that she was always afraid of Farren Austin.
Once, under the threat of Erlina Lee, she drugged Farren Austin and tried to have a real relationship with him, but when she was caught, Farren Austin pushed her away and hit her forehead on the bedpost, bleeding like water.
That was also the time she first met Jay Mo.
A white coat, tall, handsome, talking and polite, carrying a medicine box to check her carefully, and at that time she was already ashes, almost no desire to live, refused to communicate with anyone who appeared in the Austin family.
In the words of Halyn Austin at the time, she had become an eccentric psychopath.
On the day of Halyn Austin’s birthday, the Austin family was full of guests. In order not to embarrass the Austin family, Amelia Bright was warned by Erlina Lee to stay in the backyard, where the front yard was brightly lit and bustling, and the backyard was desolate.
It was also then that Jay Mo found her and handed her a fairy wand, smiling warmly and brightly.
“I saw Halyn and the girls were playing with this, and the girls should all like it, so I took one to give to you.”
