Chapter 1318
Next to them stood a five to six-year-old child with a somewhat dazed expression. It was unclear what the child''s rtionship with Amelia was.
Keith walked out of thepany with dark eye circles. Several bodyguards followed behind him, and they escorted the employees into thepany.
He was stunned when he saw me. "You''re early, Mrs. Grant. Mr. Grant had a meeting all night and it just ended.”
I looked at Amelia''s parents and asked,” How long have they been here?”
"They arrivedst night and have been standing here the whole time, moring forpensation. The police haven''te up with the results yet, so
we can''t proceed withpensation yet." Keith''s expression was sullen.Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.
I nodded and did not ask anything else.
At this moment, I heard the employees discussing among themselves. "Amelia''s parents are a handful. Mr. Grant has personally gone downstairs to
tell them that he''ll give them maximumpensation no matter what the result is, but they''re still causing a scene. It doesn''t seem like they''re
seekingpensation. They seem more like they''re here to discredit Grant Corporation.”
I pursed my lips and looked at Keith, asking, "Is there a big difference between thepensation for idental death and suicide?"
"The difference is huge..." Keith sighed. "If it''s an idental death, thepany needs topensate arge amount and also refurbish the entire
company''s security system. If it''s a suicide, then we don''t need topensate for anything. But for humanitarian reas, we will still offer
compensation, just not a lot."
After hearing what he said, I understood why Amelia''s parents were making a scene.
When things like that happened in apany, it was necessary to minimize the impact as much as possible. Amelia''s parents knew that, and that
was why they came to make a scene. When the time came, even if Amelia''s case was a suicide, Theo would still give them a lot of money in order to
reduce the impact.
However, a night had passed and Theo still did not give them any money to make them leave. It seemed like he was still waiting for the result before
taking further action.
Amelia''s parents’ eyes were red and swollen. Their voices were hoarse as well. How could their aged bodies take it after wailing here all night?
The child standing next to them looked like he was going to pass out at any time.
I sighed and said to Keith, "Please get someone to buy them some breakfast."
Keith frowned, not quite able to understand why. "They''re here to cause a scene.”
I pursed my lips. "The child is really pitiful. Please."
Keith did not say anything else and nodded to agree.
After going upstairs to Theo''s office, I saw him going through some documents and walking over to put the meal bag in my hand on the desk. I jerked
the documents out of his hand.
"You don''t want to feel well
anymore?’ I gretended to be angry."

A smile brgke out on Theo''s weary
face. He apened hisarms and
wrapped them around my waist,
taking-a deep breath. " Why are you
here-so early? You didn''t sleep well
lastnight?”

I looked athis slightly messy hair
and felt very sorry for him. "Don''t.
worry about me. You should look at
how tired you look. Be good and
listen to me. Take your breakfast
ang-go to sleep.”

After saying that, I opened the meal bag and took out an insted lunch box, then watched him finish it all
After breakfast, he held onto me and told me to sleep with him.
Although I did not feel like sleeping. I did not have the heart to refuse him after seeing how exhausted he was.
"I can''t sleep without you by my side.” There was a hint of resignation in his voice.
I helplessly sighed and apanied him to bed.
