Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!

"This is outrageous!" Amelia fumed. "Micah, your secretary has such poor manners." Micah didn't address her complaint and instead asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, but why did you push me?" Amelia pouted, trying to appear wounded. "You stepped on her hand."

Micah's response was straightforward, but Sadie had already left the office by that time. "She dropped that dirty rag on my foot," Amelia complained, frowning. "It was filthy!"

"So, your reaction was to step on her?" Micah retorted.

Caught off guard, Amelia scrambled for an excuse. "No, it wasn't intentional. It's her own fault for leaving her hand there..."

"Your father should have taught you to be kind to others." Micah frowned, displeased. "We're not in feudal times anymore. There's no place for that kind of superiority here. Everyone's equal." "It was just a secretary. Why are you making such a big deal?" Amelia's confusion was palpable. "Unless there's something between you and-"

"Even if she is 'just a secretary', she's still a person on my team," Micah cut her off, a serious undertone in his reminder. "Remember when you threw a tantrum and broke a glass, hurting my cat..." "And you didn't speak to me for three years," Amelia blurted, her earlier poise slipping into panic. She clutched at his sleeve, pleading, "I'm sorry! I know it was wrong. I'll be better. Don't be mad!" "You should apologize to her," Micah said coolly, pulling his sleeve free from her grasp.

"You want me to apologize to her?!" Amelia's eyes widened in disbelief. Glimpsing Micah's icy demeanor, she quickly changed her tune. "Alright, alright. I'll apologize. Don't be upset." With that, she grabbed her purse and strode out of the room.

Micah signaled with a hand gesture, and Andrew promptly followed her.

Sadie's hand was scraped, blood gushing; her colleagues were shocked, rushing to get a first aid kit to attend to her wounds.

When Victoria rushed over, concerned, she asked, "What happened?"

"I" Sadie started to speak, but Amelia marched over. "Do we need to head to the hospital?"

Suppressing tears, Sadie retorted, "No need!"

"I'm really sorry about before. It wasn't on purpose."

Amelia's apology seemed insincere as she carelessly offered a check from her purse to Sadie, "Here, for your medical expenses. Fill in whatever amount you think it's worth!" After uttering those words, she was ready to leave with her bodyguard in tow.

"Wait!" Sadie exclaimed furiously. "You think you can just "

Victoria interrupted Sadie, offering a solemn shake of her head before turning to Amelia with respect. "Ms. Amelia, please take your time leaving."

As Amelia gracefully entered the elevator, she shot a haughty smirk in Sadie's direction.

Sadie, shaking with anger, received sympathetic looks from her colleagues, who wisely refrained from saying more.

"Everyone, back to work," ordered Victoria.

The colleagues shuffled out, heads down.

"I know this is upsetting, but she's out of your league," Victoria said as she applied ointment to Sadie's hand. "Amelia is not only Mr. Clemens' partner at the Luminex Group but also his childhood friend. Word has it they might be planning a merger through marriage, and she could very well become our boss someday..."

Hearing this, Sadie felt even worse. Was Amelia the fiancée Leah had mentioned about Micah?

"Even if you're not with the VIC Group, you need to make a living, right? Offending Ms. Amelia, you'll find trouble anywhere you go. Better to swallow your pride," Victoria advised earnestly. "Next time she comes around, I'll have you reassigned to avoid any run-ins. This tension will ease in time. As for that check, I suggest you return it. Consider it a favor bought."
