Amelie typed a message and pressed send, holding the phone against her chest as she waited for the reply. Instead of a new message, however, the phone vibrated with a notification of an incoming call.
"Anna, it's me, Amelie Ashford."
"Mrs. Ashford! Thank goodness! Are you alright? No one is allowed to visit you––"
Although Amelie was somewhat relieved to hear her assistant's worried voice, she had to postpone the niceties for a better time.
"Anna, don't worry, I am fine. I'd like to talk more but I need you to do me a favor."
"Of course, Mrs. Ashford, anything."
"I need you to contact this number if you find out that Richard started contacting the lawyers––"
This time, it was Anna who interrupted Amelie. "Mrs. Ashford, Mr. Clark contacted the lawyers today. And not just lawyers... Mr. Benjamin Andersen was contacted by his assistant too."
