Chapter 12

As Zona Lawrence spoke, she moved forward to help Amos Sari, who surprisingly allowed her to do so.

With Zona Lawrence's help, Amos Sari settled down in bed, and Zona Lawrence personally gave him the medicine.

Amos Sari watched Zona Lawrence's every move with a complex expression, offering no resistance as he obediently took the medicine.

He thought he might be sick, which was why he was like this, he absolutely refused to admit he was soft-hearted, that he was attached to this warmth.

Zona Lawrence saw him take the medicine and breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "Sir, I'll go get you breakfast, you should drink some congee first, it will be better soon."

After saying that, she went downstairs and brought the breakfast up, Amos Sari looking at the small dumplings and congee in the small tray, surprisingly felt his appetite increase, but more so a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Once upon a time, he also dreamed that one day he would be taken care of like Zona Lawrence, but that betrayal made him wake up from his dream.

Zona Lawrence hadn't noticed that Amos Sari had already woken up; the tenderness in his eyes instantly disappeared, his dark eyes once again deep and cold.

Eleanor Lawrence placed the tray on the small bedside table, preparing to feed Amos Sari herself with congee, when suddenly a powerful force swept over her.

Eleanor Lawrence gasped, the entire bowl of congee pouring over her, still scalding hot. Eleanor Lawrence covered her burned hand, tears welling in her eyes.

She looked at Amos Sari , but Amos Sari avoided her eyes, his face like frost staring out the window, "I don't eat, get away from me, call the butler to take me to the hospital."

Zona Lawrence opened her mouth, she knew she should keep her distance from Amos Sari, but she couldn't stand seeing Amos Sari in pain, perhaps Amos Sari was right, she was a , she really was being a .

Zona Lawrence's lips curled into a mocking arc, her voice regained its subservience, with not a trace of worry left.

"I'll go call the butler back now."

After speaking, she pressed her lips together, closed her eyes to conceal the complex emotions in them, and hurried out the door.

Until the sound of the door slamming shut, Amos Sarai finally brought his gaze back, seeing the tightly closed door, he opened his mouth, but the hand placed by his side clenched into a fist, trembling slightly.

He silently told himself in his heart, he couldn't be tempted by her, this woman was of high rank, he had been betrayed and hurt by her because he trusted her too much back then, he couldn't make the same mistake again, Sarai family members couldn't make such mistakes.

The butler received a call from home and hurried back, then took Amos Sari to the hospital, while Zona Lawrence stayed in her own small room the entire time he was going to the hospital.

After this period of calm, she also realized that she was just a maid in Amos Sari's house, not even as good as the other maids in the house. She was Amos Sari's enemy and should not have harbored any illusions.

Zona Lawrence felt somewhat relieved after realizing this reality, and the stomach trouble issue passed.

Zona Lawrence did her job honestly after Amos Sari personally shattered her illusions.

Because Amos Sari deliberately caused trouble, all the dirty and hard work at home became Zona Lawrence's responsibility, and she had no complaints.

Amos Sari promised to let her mother stay in the hospital and would pay all the expenses, even if it was for her mother, she couldn't afford to disobey Amos Sari.

Let's just go with it! Anyway, her life was going to be like this anyway, she wouldn't find a good job outside, so rather than this, it might as well stay and be tormented by Amos Sari, at least it could still guarantee her mother's life, right?

Zona Lawrence explained this to herself in her heart. Amos Sari had also been avoiding Zona Lawrence these last two days, because of the previous stomach illness incident, he didn't want to get involved with Zona Lawrence anymore.

He found that as long as Zona Lawrence got close to him, he couldn't help but feel softness inside. He didn't want to be controlled by this vicious woman anymore, so he spent most of his time at the company.

That day, while he was working at the company, his secretary suddenly placed an invitation letter in his hand.

“President, there is a party you need to attend.”

After the secretary finished speaking, she waited respectfully. Amos Sari, upon hearing this, picked up the invitation and saw that he had indeed wanted to attend this party before.

“Alright, I know. Let’s arrange it for then!”

Amos Sari, after speaking, placed the invitation back on the desk and continued working.

The secretary spoke softly at this moment, "President, I have already prepared your gown, but Lawrence said she wants to prepare your gown for you, what do you think..."

The secretary didn't finish her sentence, but Amos Sari had already understood the meaning behind her words. He had always prepared his own gowns, why would Wanda Lawrence suddenly want to prepare one for him?

Seeing Amos looking puzzled, the secretary quickly explained, "Miss Lawrence, she came over yesterday, but you were not in the office, so she asked me to deliver the message to you."

"She said she was going to prepare a dress anyway, so she might as well prepare one for you too. She said she knows a very famous designer who can design a couple's set for you."

When she said this, the secretary's face was filled with envy, but who doesn't envy Wanda Lawrence? With an attractive and wealthy fiancé like Amos Sari.

Amos Sari finally understood what the secretary said, but he had no intention of taking Wanda Lawrence to the banquet, although he had indeed attended many banquets with Wanda Lawrence before, he had only done so because he was too lazy to find a date and had let her join him as an afterthought.

Amos Sari glanced at the invitation, and suddenly the face of Zona Lawrence appeared in his eyes, and he jolted awake.

The secretary asked in confusion, "President, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Amos Sari shook his head, "It's nothing, I don't need her to prepare my clothes, you prepare them for me. Oh, and also prepare a set of women's evening gown for me, I'll give you the size later."

Amos Sari's words made the secretary even more envious, thinking, "Look at how well he's acting as a fiancé, even preparing evening gowns for his fiancée."

The secretary returned to her desk holding a heart, but Amos Sari was looking at the invitation, and in his mind, the charming image of Zona Lawrence in a evening gown from years ago came to life.

Speaking of it, he hadn't seen Zona Lawrence in such a glamorous attire for a long time. Back then, the proud second princess of the Lawrence family, who had won the admiration of so many.

But when Amos Sari returned home, he saw Zona Lawrence dragging the floor and felt a bit short of breath. He loosened his tie and coughed lightly.

When Zona Lawrence heard the noise and looked up, she saw it was Amos Sari and quickly stood there with lowered eyes.

"Sir, you're back," she said and then continued dragging the floor.

Amos Sari saw her demeanor and felt an indescribable anger in his heart.
