“Mr. Kingsley, Klein is coming,” the bodyguard whispered.
Elaine stopped crying when she heard this and rushed out. “Dad, they bullied me.”
Amelia clenched her hands nervously and thought, ‘If Elaine drugged me, we wouldn’t be afraid of this situation. However, the person who drugged me didn’t seem to be Elaine. We are now in a weak position.”
“Mr. Kingsley, you dared hurt my daughter.” Klein came over with a group of bodyguards.
The ancestors of the Atkinson family were from the underworld, and even in this generation, it still hadn’t completely transformed yet. Klein was a burly man with a beard, looking shrewd and tough.
Amelia glanced at the four bodyguards at her side with a frown and wondered if they could defeat Klein’s bodyguards.
Landon held Amelia’s hand and said internally, ‘All the relevant characters are here. The game is about to begin!
Amelia was stunned, thinking, ‘Landon is plotting something? Then the medicine Aaron gave Elaine just now… I understood.
Amelia relaxed and watched the fun quietly.

“Dad, they forced me to take the drug. They hurt me,” Elaine cried and leaned on Klein’s chest, looking aggrieved like a little girl.
Klein’s face was gloomy, and he said sternly, “Mr. Kingsley, how dare you hurt Elaine?”
“Mr. Atkinson, how did you find this place?” Landon asked.
Hearing this, Elaine felt strange. “Dad, how did you
find
it?”
“You didn’t go home, and I came to find you,” Klein said.
“I said I wouldn’t go home today. Dad, who told you this place?” Elaine rarely became smart this time. She thought, ‘The person who knows that Landon locked her in the apartment was probably the one who framed me. Damn it. Who is it?‘
“Elaine, take a rest. Leave the rest to me.” Klein let go of Elaine, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards Landon aggressively.
Landon’s bodyguards immediately lined up and stood in front of Landon.
A fight was about to break out. Amelia suddenly stepped forward and said calmly, “Mr. Atkinson, you should check who is framing Ms. Atkinson first.”
Landon raised an eyebrow and looked at Amelia. He thought, ‘Amy is nervous, but she still stood up for him. It’s really touching.”
“Are you Amelia Edwards?” Klein looked at Amelia, his daughter’s love rival, and admired her courage. Few people dared to offend Klein when he was angry, especially women. Amelia was really impressive.
“Mr. Atkinson, someone drugged me and put the bottle in Ms. Atkinson’s bag. You should investigate it,” Amelia said.
Klein turned to ask Elaine, “Is that so?”
“Hmm.” Elaine nodded, hating the person who framed her.
“Raman, go and check Patrick,” Klein ordered sternly.
Raman, Klein’s bodyguard, immediately took people to investigate Patrick. The people from the Atkinson family did everything vigorously and speedily
Amelia was surprised, thinking, Patrick won’t admit it if they ask directly, right?‘

“No matter what, you shouldn’t hurt my daughter.” Klein was in a rage.
Amelia asked, “If someone drugged Ms. Atkinson, what would you do, Mr. Atkinson?”
Klein snorted coldly, “Send that person to hell.”
“Then we’re merciful enough,” Amelia said and stood behind Landon.

“You’re merciful?” Elaine was angered. “You slapped me up and forced me to take the drug. You guys hurt me so much.” Elaine was scared when she thought about having a large menstrual flow during every period in the future.
Elaine thought, ‘Amelia has only had this once, and she is so pale and weak. If this happens to me every month, can I keep alive?‘
Klein became even angrier. In the past, when the Atkinson family had been at the peak of their underworld power, they had used this kind of drug to punish those female traitors to destroy their fertility.
Landon was furious, and Klein guessed that someone had drugged Amelia with that kind of drug. However, Landon wronged Elaine and hurt her. How could he take action without finding out the truth?
“I didn’t drug Ms. Atkinson. It was vitamin powder,” Landon said.
Klein and Elaine were both stunned. Amelia finally relaxed and thought, ‘Fortunately, it was not a drug!‘
Klein laughed with relief and patted Landon on the shoulder, “You brat. You actually took advantage of me.”
“That person took advantage of you first,” Landon chuckled.
Klein said, “That bastard. If it weren’t for your concern for Elaine, she would have really been harmed.”
Elaine blushed. “Don’t kid me, Dad.”
“Isn’t it? Landon has always been ruthless, but he is very patient to you. If you hadn’t studied abroad for so long, you would have been married long time ago,” Klein joked and looked at Landon with a smile, feeling a little regretful.
Klein couldn’t help but think, ‘Will Landon’s legs recover? If not, he has to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.‘
Landon smiled, “You are joking, Mr. Atkinson. I’m already married. Don’t let my wife get me wrong, or she will punish me when I get home.” Landon looked at Amelia with gentle eyes.
Amelia was embarrassed, thinking, ‘Nonsense. When did I punish him?‘
Klein’s smile disappeared. Looking at the affectionate eye contact between Landon and Amelia and then at Elaine, Klein regretted it. He thought, ‘If I had known that Landon could wake up, I should have sent Elaine to take care of him. What should I do now? I can only drive Amelia away!‘
Klein frowned and suddenly asked, “Elaine, why is your face swollen? Who slapped you?”
“She.” Elaine pointed at Amelia, raising her chin with a smirk. Elaine thought, ‘You dared slap me. Humph, you are doomed.‘
Klein said, “Ms. Edwards-
“Mr. Atkinson, you are the elder, so just call her Amelia,” Landon said. “What happened just now was caused by Patrick. Wait for Raman to bring him over, and then Elaine can slap Patrick a few more times to vent her anger,” he spoke calmly. Obviously, he was defending Amelia.
Amelia felt warm in her heart. She thought, ‘It feels so good to be protected.‘
“Landon, Amelia hit me before figuring out the truth. I must slap her.” Elaine clenched her fists. She thought, ‘I’ve suffered losses in front of Amelia over and over again. I must strike back and slap her today. It would be best if she were disfigured.‘
“If it were Elaine who was suffering, you would have killed that person long ago, Mr. Atkinson.” Landon held Amelia’s hand tightly, signaling her not to be

afraid.
Klein raised his hand to stop Elaine. “Let Patrick bear this slap.”
“Dad.” Elaine stomped her foot.
“Silly girl. You didn’t even know you were being framed.” Klein glared at Elaine. “Fortunately, Landon knew what was going on and didn’t give you the drug. Otherwise, you would be like Amelia, unable to get pregnant for the rest of your life.”
“What?” Upon hearing this, Amelia was dumbfounded.
