Chapter 9 Rose Was Injured (2/2)

ly put on an act. Outside should be your stage. What if you hurt yourself and can't stop what you're doing right now.”

Rose bit her lips, pitifully looked at Darren and said, ”Darren, I know it was my fault. Don't be angry. Amanda didn't mean it.”

”Amanda!” Looking at Rose's injured knees and hurt arms, and listening to Amanda arrogant words, Darren's eyes were filled with anger. He went up and grabbed Amanda's hand, ”Do you think I indulge you too much? How dare you hit her?”

Just then, Amanda realized that she had been set up by Rose. Darren grip on her hand was tight and painful, she couldn't help but struggle, ”Darren, let go of me. I didn't push her.”

”Take her to the hospital.” Darren asked Nancy. Nancy helped Rose out, who then threw a gloating look at Amanda before she closed the door and left.

Amanda was staring at Darren coldly, then she said angrily, ”Darren, you'd better release me now.”

”Release you? Like this?” A disdainful look appeared on Darren's face. He raised his hand and threw off Amanda's hand. Amanda hit the table and the pieces of glass hit her hand. Her palm was bleeding. Feeling the pain, Amanda laughed at herself, ”You don't believe whatever I say, but you only believe in Rose. So what will you do to me if I push her?”

Looking at Amanda's bloody palm, Darren took a deep breath to calm himself down. Then he said, ”It seems that the work here is not suitable for you. You'd better not come to work for some time.”

Not going to work? That was good news. Amanda put on a smile and said, ”Thank you, Mr. Darren.”

”Damn it! What are you doing here? We can't even shoot a commercial.” The director had been ready, he cursed when he saw Amanda's out.

”Yes, we have to work overtime again. She brought bad luck to our company.”

Amanda stumbled out of the lounge and giggled as she heard people's complaining. All of a sudden, someone lifted a leg and tripped her. As a result, Amanda lost her balance and fell to the ground. Her wound became more severe after the collision, and Amanda was unable to stand it anymore. The air around her was full of laughter.

All of a sudden, the laughter stopped. A hand reached out in front of her. At the sight of the worried look on Lionel's face, Amanda's nose twitched. She felt like all her efforts to hold on were going to be in vain.

Lionel rushed here when hearing the noise. When he came in, he saw Amanda falling on the ground. Her hand was bleeding, and everyone around her was laughing. No one came to help her. She curled up carefully, like a sheep was thrown into a pack of hungry wolves. Lionel raised his arms, held Amanda up and took her away.

”What are you doing, Lionel?” Said Darren with anger in his voice when he saw Amanda held by Lionel in his arms.

”I'm sending my secretary home. I have no case of conniving at employee hurting.” Lionel turned to look at Darren and said in a low voice.

”Amanda made a mistake and she deserved to be punished. As Mrs. An, she should be responsible for the company's employees. However, because of her own mood, Rose was injured. She wouldn't be punished even if she didn't receive a lawyer's letter and let alone caused the loss of shooting for the company.” Darren said coldly.

”I didn't know where Mrs. An was. I only saw Amanda, who has been bullied since she joined the company. And I believe my employees won't do such a thing. It's not my business that what the company will deal with it. As for my people, I will certainly protect them. If you want to send a lawyer's letter, please send it directly to my name.” Lionel added. Saying that, Lionel took Amanda and left.

Amanda leaned in Lionel's arms and wriggled a little. She said in a low voice, ”I'm sorry.”

”Why should you say sorry?” Lionel asked.

”I didn't want to cause you any trouble, so I agreed to help. But I didn't expect that I got into even bigger trouble. In fact, you don't have to care about me.” Said Amanda, lowering her head.

”It's not a bother. I just did my duty as a gentleman.” Hearing her explanation, Lionel smiled and said in a low voice, ”I'm willing to accept it even it's a trouble.”
