There was another knock on the door, most likely the

Amanda instructed, “Please come in.”

The nanny entered with a plate of chicken soup. “Miss Bailey, you didn’t eat much earlier. How can you not eat when you’re sick? Please have some soup to nourish yourself.”

“Thank you. Just leave it here, and I’ll drink it later.”

“Okay, you can leave the plate here when you’re finished, and I’ll come to collect it.”

The nanny placed the soup on the bedside table and left.

Amanda glanced at the light soup, but she had no appetite, so she turned over, closed her eyes, and tried to sleep..

She had a long and chaotic dream.

Later, she faintly heard a commotion, which grew louder and clearer and made it impossible. for her to fall back asleep.

She slowly opened her eyes and could clearly hear the commotion coming from downstairs. It sounded like the nanny was arguing with a woman.

Strange.

Since she couldn’t sleep anyway, she got up and saw what was happening.

She wore her robe and walked out of the bedroom, and the noise became even more audible.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Let me in! Who do you think you are, a nanny, to stop me from entering? Simon would never stop me from entering!”

“Miss Lynch, please stop causing trouble for me. Mr. Nicholson specifically instructed that you cannot enter if you visited recently, and I can’t do anything about it.”

“Why can’t I go in? Why is he treating me like this because of that woman on the phone? Doesn’t he want me anymore?”

Following the sound, Amanda arrived downstairs and saw the nanny blocking a beautiful young woman outside the door. The woman had an arrogant and domineering look; thus, she refused to leave.

Upon seeing Amanda descending from upstairs, Violet Lynch’s anger surged “It’s you! It’s because of you that Simon has canceled our date! How shameless can a woman like you be!”

“Miss Lynch, please leave!” The nanny quickly stepped forward to stop her.

Unexpectedly, Violet pushed the nanny aside and walked straight toward Amanda. Without saying a word, she slapped Amanda in the face.

The nanny beside them was stunned and shouted, “Miss Lynch, how can you hit someone?”

“Why can’t I hit her? I’ll hit a shameless woman like her every time I see her.”

Violet’s anger was evident in her words. She was already furious, but she never expected that he would bring this woman home.

I have never lived here before, so why does this woman have the right to?

Amanda looked at the woman in front of her and asked, “What gives you the right to hit someone?”

“You’re Simon’s ex-girlfriend, right? Old Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson have mentioned. you and they said they would never agree to let you into the Nicholsons as you’re always. pestering him. Who do you think you are? Do you think he is some kind of savior? What gives you

the right to bully him? He finally had a chance to start a new relationship, and now you’re here to cause trouble again!”

Violet had always known that there was a woman in Simon’s heart that he couldn’t forget, but she was willing to wait. She had waited a long time, and finally, he had relaxed a bit and agreed to go on a date with her, but a phone call had shattered all her dreams.

“You’re Simon’s new girlfriend?” Amanda questioned.

Girlfriend? Not really. He reluctantly agreed to have a meal with Violet, but she felt it was progress! “If it weren’t for you, we might have already become boyfriend and girlfriend by now.” Violet’s face was full of resentment as she coldly snorted.

Amanda looked at the woman in front of her and said, “First of all, I’m sorry, as I didn’t know he was in a new relationship. The situation was urgent then, and I didn’t mean to disturb. you. Besides, I have no relationship with him other than being ordinary friends. Please don’t misunderstand. You can continue to date him, and I will never be a hindrance between you two.”

Violet looked Amanda up and down. At this moment, Amanda had a plain face and looked a bit sickly, but her temperament and features revealed that she was a beautiful woman.

Violet sneered disdainfully. “Nice words. You live in Simon’s house and occupy his time. every day. Thus, he even stopped answering my calls. How can I continue to date him? You’re hypocritical, so Old Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson don’t like you as you’re good at pretending. Please show some real action!”

Amanda nodded as she indeed needed to take real action and not trouble him anymore. She had to solve her own problems.

Furthermore, he should not be involved in this dispute as she couldn’t let him. get because of her again.

“Okay, sorry, I’ll leave now, and you just wait here for Simon to return. Don’t let me disturb your enjoyment, and I hope you can make up for his emotional loss.”

Amanda went upstairs after she said that. The nanny immediately approached her, “Miss Bailey, you can’t leave as I won’t be able to explain to Mr. Nicholson if you leave. How can I tell him?”

Violet, who was on the side, sarcastically answered, “What else can you say? Just tell the truth. Can you stop her if she insists on leaving?”

Amanda showed a helpless smile. “Yes, please tell Simon I insisted on leaving, and I don’t want to bother him anymore. I’m already fine now, so I will handle things independently. Let him live his own life.”

After speaking, she quickly went upstairs, changed into a different outfit, then took her phone and went downstairs.

The nanny couldn’t help but try to persuade her, “Miss Bailey, why don’t you wait for Mr. Nicholson to come back and talk to him yourself? I really can’t take charge of this.”

The nanny was worried that Simon would be angry with her because of Amanda’s departure.

“No need for it. I heard him saying that you cared for me last night, changed my clothes, and helped me to lower my fever. You really went through a lot of trouble. Thank I’m leaving now as I have something to take care of.”

Amanda left the house without even wearing the new clothes that Simon bought for her. Instead, she wore her old clothes.

After seeing her completely leave, Violet felt relieved and sat on the sofa; she looked at the nanny, “Alright, please stop staring. Can you stop her if she insists on leaving? Please pour me a glass of water, as I’m a bit thirsty,”

The nanny couldn’t help but sigh as she made her way to the kitchen as she still needed to figure out a way to contact Simon and give him an update. However, Simon had specifically mentioned that the event he attended that evening was exclusive and prohibited the use of phones.

It was already approximately ten o’clock at night when Simon finally departed from the
