Chapter 279
Howard put down his chopsticks after hearing the phone buzzing. He took out his phone from the
pocket. Taking a quick look, he frowned and rejected the call.
"Honey, who is that?" Eve asked carelessly.
Howard replied quickly, "Well, my chess mates."
Seeing Howard lowered his eyes, Eve, pretending to be disinterested, said, "I''ve talked with your
chess friends yesterday. They said that it had been a while since thest time you reunited, for you
were busy with other stuff."
Her words made the atmosphere a bit weird.
Howard licked his dry lips and said, "Am I not allowed to y chess with other friends?"
Eve''s expression was full of doubts, "Then why did you hang up the phone? Why not simply answer
it?"
Upon hearing this, ever- elegant Howard turned angry, "Enough! This is a special asion for my
mom. I don''t want to be disturbed by anyone irrelevant!"
Seeing the intensified situation, Patrick came to rescue, "Dad, mom, Ashley just told me that she
learned a new song in her ss. Would you like to appreciate her performance?"
Amelia responded, "Wow, what a great girl! When I was your age, I was unable to sing at all!"
As she finished her words, Amelia kicked Florence under the table. Florence understood her
intention and pped his hands immediately, "Hurry up Ashley! Let me apany you."
Ashley, who was praised by the crowd, cleared her throat and sang. Her lovely voice was pleasant.
Howard turned to listen to Ashley''s song after expressing he was reluctant to argue with Eve, which
made Eve sulk alone.
Amelia went to the bathroom while Ashley was singing.
Just as she was about to leave the bathroom, she heard some noises outside the door.
"Oh, it hurts. Secretary Grant, slow down."
The woman''s groan startled Amelia. She carefully peeked at them through the door gap, only to find
that a couple was sitting on the sink, doing something very intimate.
The man buried his face in the woman''s chest, and the woman''s back was facing Amelia,
murmuring with her head up. They were cing themselves tightly against each other, covered with
clothes.
But even so, it still scared Amelia a lot.
She had never encountered such an embarrassing thing.
Amelia found that the door to the bathroom was closed. Besides, she was in the innermost room, so
that was why they didn''t notice there was another person.
It was not a good time to go out now. Therefore, she decided to wait after they finished.
Unexpectedly, her phone rang at this moment. The sound disturbed the couple, and it even covered
their gasp.
The couple, who were busy doing their stuff, quickly covered their faces with hands, and said in a
panic, "Who''s there?"
The woman was a model and public figure. If it exposed, her pure image would be ruined for her
fans.
But Secretary Grant, who was just enjoying the moment, didn''t care that much. He was still
continuing, not intending to stop.
"Secretary Grant, stop it!" The woman was in his arms feebly. Her body was sensitive from the
nervousness and joy.
Secretary Grant didn''t listen to her until he was satisfied. He zipped his pants up, opened the door,
and held the woman to leave.
It was not until their footsteps hadpletely disappeared that Amelia poked her head. It really
freaked her out, but fortunately, Secretary Grant didn''t seem to go hard with her.

Just as Amelia walked to the sink, her eyes suddenly wide opened. She saw Secretary Grant and
the woman in the mirror.
Seeing Amelia, Secretary Grant''s look changed," Oh, it turns out that you''re the one hiding inside."
The woman grabbed Secretary Grant''s clothes and asked, "What should we do now?"
A few secondster, Amelia realized that they pretended to leave in order to lure her out
Under their unfriendly gaze, she said sincerely, "I promise that I didn''t do anything. If you don''t
believe me, you can check my mobile phone!"
Hearing Amelia''s words, the woman''s worry lessened. Just as she was going to express her
appreciation, Secretary Grant said, "You may delete the photo, but you can never delete your
memory. Miss Ramsay, am I right?
Amelia responded to his question, "I didn''t see anything. What memory are you talking about?"
Secretary Grant said with a faint smile, "I am still worried, even if you said so. What should I do?"
"Does he want to kill me?" Amelia wondered, with this horrible idea.
Seeing that Amelia couldn''t exin, Secretary Grant turned to the worried woman and said, "You go
back first."
The woman seemed to want to stay, " Secretary Grant..."
Secretary Chu''s eyes turned cold, "Go back!"
She had topromise, looked at Amelia with mercy, turned around, and left.
Amelia wanted to leave as well, but she knew that she couldn''t before this matter had been settled.
"Secretary Grant, can''t we trust each other more? Now I''m the only one who witnesses your
romance. If anything happens in the future, you will naturally know it is me. You think I am that
stupid and detrimental?"
Secretary Chu raised his eyebrows and said, "It is good for you to know the pros and cons are
good, but I can''t ruin my future just because of a slight
oversight."
Considering his position, it would inevitably affect his career if such a romantic affair was exposed.
"Then how dare you do such a shameless thing in public!"
Amelia suppressed the urge to scream and said as calmly as she could, "What do you want?"
Secretary Chu suddenly approached Amelia, "I want to..."
Amelia took a step backwards because of fear, but identally twisted her ankle at that time.
Hence, she tilted for losing bnce.
Fortunately, a man supported her. She looked up to see, but it wasn''t Secretary Grant. Then the
person who helped her was...
"Hobart?" Amelia eximed when she saw him.
"It''s me," Hobart replied tly.
Amelia didn''t expect that, so she asked stupidly, "Why are you here?"
Hobart joked, "That''s what I should ask. Could it be fate bring us here?"
