Eugene Cornelius?” Amelie had to search her mind for several moments before she remembered that he was Leo’s assistant. “Why?”

Eugene hesitated for a moment before answering, “Something’s happening here, and you’re the only one who can resolve the situation.”

“What is it?” Amelie’s curiosity was piqued.

Eugene glanced at the two men who were still tussling with each other and had no choice but to state honestly, “Mr. Alston has gotten into a fight with someone.”

“Leo Alston?” Amelie thought she had to get her ears checked. Leo’s a stoic iceberg. Why would he get into a fight with someone?

“That’s right.” Eugene felt ashamed to make this call for help, but he had to push through it anyway. He doubted that the two men would stop if Amelie didn’t show up.

“I’m sorry, but his matters have nothing to do with me.” After a moment of stunned silence, Amelie regained her senses and replied, “We’ve divorced. You should be calling his family.” While Eugene had been away for two years, there was no reason for him to not be aware of the divorce.

“I know.” Eugene’s head was throbbing. “But you know what Mr. Alston’s like. His family…”

Leo wouldn’t listen to Melissa, and Melissa didn’t have the guts to get involved either.

There was no point even considering Jodie.

Eugene didn’t know what he could say to convince Amelie.

After a while, he said, “He’s fighting with Mr. Walsh, and it seems to have started because of you.”

“Mr. Walsh? Toby Walsh?” Amelie was startled by what Eugene was telling her. She had the impression that Toby was a warm and pleasant gentleman. Would he get into a fight with someone?
