Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 544

Frank was busying away at the company, and he didn't realize it was lunchtime. None of his employees came to tell him as they were worried he might think they were disturbing him. It was already one in the afternoon when he realized he was starving. He stopped working and got up to get himself some water. Just then, someone entered his office without knocking. A frown furrowed his forehead. They should've knocked, even if it was lunchtime. Rude.

But when Amelia came in, his frown disappeared. Fine. Not like someone coming in without knocking can scare me anyway. Besides, Amelia won't hurt me. "What brings you here?" He put his glass down and went around his table to approach Amelia.

Amelia placed the lunchboxes on the coffee table. "Desmond said you might be starving, so I came. Said you might die from starvation, so I might want to come and contact the morgue."

"He wouldn't say something like that. He's nicer to me than my uncles."

"Yet you still make him worry. You won't even eat. If you really think of him as your uncle, then at least don't make him worry."

Frank stayed silent for a few moments. "I was just too busy, so I forgot to eat. You know I haven't been coming to work lately so work has piled up. I forgot about lunch because I was too immersed in my work. When I realized I was hungry, everyone was already gone."

"And nobody came to remind you? What about your bodyguards? What were they thinking?"

Frank stared at Amelia.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You're actually a beautiful girl, Amelia."

Amelia smiled. "Obviously. I was born pretty." Wait. What's with the sudden compliment?


"Are you worried about me? Is that why you came?" Frank asked carefully, though he hid it behind a mask of calmness, and Amelia missed it.

"Did it rain money today?"

"No."

"Good. Then I'm not worried about you. Not like I'm the one starving. I don't even care if you die from hunger. I won't even cry."

"Cruel."

Amelia humphed. "I don't want to hear that from you." You're worse than I am. "I did what Desmond asked. Don't forget about my double bonus. See ya."

She tried to leave, but Frank got in her way. She stepped to the left, but Frank obstructed her. She then stepped to the right, and Frank obstructed her too.

"What are you doing, Frank?" Amelia snapped.

"You're staying with me. I don't like having lunch by myself. Stay."

"I've had my fill, thanks."

"You don't have to eat. Just stay."

"I don't have time for this."

"I can pay you."

Amelia laughed. "I don't need money."

"But it's virtually free."

Amelia stayed silent for a while. "If you're going make me count all the notes again, I'd rather not take your money."

A smile curled Frank's lips. "I can give you millions in cash. If you'd like, you can count them all by hand."

"Oh, fine. Desmond almost went on his knees before I came. I'll stay, but only for him. Don't give me cash. Just Venmo me the money. Too many notes spoil the fun."
