Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 580

The next second, Daniel interjected, "I'm only the executor of the project. The person in charge of the project is dad."

"Shame on you!" Amelia widened her eyes and then roared, "You think you can get away with it if you just push the blame to dad? Know that this project has always been overseen by you. The police can interrogate anybody from the company and you'll be the person they point to in the end!

Also, who revealed himself in front of the TV back then? It was you!

Moreover, to complete this project, it must had gone through a lot of procedures, right? Didn't you review, sign and hand over the contracts related to these procedures? I'll know once I check it out!"

"I didn't say that I don't want to admit it." Daniel's eyes glinted in the light, and he said, "I'm just saying that I'm just helping dad and the company."

Amelia's hands were so tightly clenched together that the skin on the back of her hands was being scratched off. How did she get together with someone so despicable as Daniel in the past? She was really blind!

Out of realization, the few of them had been sitting in the living room till dawn.

Amelia, who had not slept for the whole night, moved her stiff neck and said in a hoarse voice to Alice, 'Aunt Alice, please turn on the TV. The morning news may have the latest update regarding the development zone."

Alice quickly followed her instructions. As Amelia had expected, the local TV station in Northville was mentioning the collapse at the development zone and the trapped employees on the live broadcast.

The news reporter said that there were two casualties at the scene of the incident out of the twenty-one victims rescued. Eleven were seriously injured and the others were harmed at different extents. A burst of despair spread through Amelia's heart.

This was only the proportion of what happened to the twenty-one victims saved during an entire night's efforts. But according to what Alice had said last night, there were a total of more than a hundred people living in the dormitory!

Amelia dared not imagine how many people had lost their lives.

Daniel's bloodshot eyes stared at the television screen, his body pulled taut like a string that might snap at any moment!

Alice was a soft-hearted person. When she heard that there were deaths and heavy injuries, tears fell down her cheeks. "What... What should we do?"

Amelia also had an urge to cry when she saw Alice tearing up. She simply snatched the remote control from Alice and turned off the miserable scenes on the TV.

"Amelia, I've let down your father. Under my management, this home has become a mess. I should be blamed..."

Thinking of her husband, who was getting thinner and weaker as he laid on the hospital bed, Alice felt even more sorrowful.

"Aunt Alice, calm down!" Seeing her crying so hard that she could hardly breathe, Amelia hurriedly reached out to comfort her by patting her back. Huxton, on the other hand, silently poured a cup of tea and passed it to her.

Daniel looked at them as if nothing had happened from the side. He had wanted to see the downfall of The Ramsay Family, but he did not expect that he himself would be the price for it!

Ding-dong, ding-dong...

The doorbell rang ominously as if it was forewarning the threat of death. Amelia became serious. She looked at Alice, who was stunned, and said, "Aunt Alice, you go upstairs and hide for a while. It may be the reporters!"

Alice replied feebly but firmly, "No, Amelia, I should be the one to face the media. This has nothing to do with you at all! Don't get involved!"

"How can it have nothing to do with me? I'm part of The Ramsay Family. To be honest, you're just a stepmother. It's not your place to worry about the business of the Ramsay Family yet!"

With that, Amelia said to Huxton, who was beside her, "Send Aunt Alice upstairs. Without my permission, she's not allowed to step out of the room!"
