Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) -
Chapter 564
When the secretary heard Patrick said that he would just eat whatever they eat, she felt relieved and asked, "Mr. Hopper, do you have any other orders?"
Patrick shook his head and waved his hand, asking her to leave to make the preparations.
Therefore, after consulting the village chief, the secretary cleared up an empty room for Patrick.
After that, the secretary used a small stove to boil water and cook. She was very busy.
If it was in the past, she would definitely take these things as work. However, Patrick walked a long journey to look for them and even risked his life for them which made her very touched. In comparison, her boyfriend was so useless!
On the other hand...
Patrick walked into his room. When he saw the environment in the room, he immediately frowned. This was considered the best treatment in the area?
Not only the decoration of the room was old, but it was full of dust floating around as well. This made such a clean freak like him almost suffocating.
As Patrick waved his hand in front of his eyes, he glanced around with disdain. He saw a two pin socket beside a small table. His eyes lit up. He quickly took out his phone and charger from his coat and walked towards the socket.
When he connected the phone to the charger, nothing happened to the phone. Patrick realized that the socket was probably broken and he could not help but be a little discouraged. Knock, knock, knock...
At this moment, the secretary's voice came through the door. "Mr. Hopper, you must be hungry after such a long journey. I've made some food. Do you want some?"
Patrick went to open the door and asked, "Where's your phone?"
The secretary touched her phone in her pocket with another hand. "Here you are, Mr. Hopper."
Patrick, "Find Amelia's phone number for me!"
The secretary said briefly, "Mr. Hopper, I'm sorry. This mobile phone was given by my boyfriend during Christmas. I changed the old SIM card as well. Now the new card only has several important telephone numbers and I don't have time to copy the others contact number."
Patrick asked again, "Is there a socket in your room?" "Yes!" The secretary said quickly.
Patrick shoved his phone to her hand without hesitation. "Then help me to charge the phone until the battery is full."
The secretary hesitated. "But... there are so many people in my room. Is it wise for you to give me your mobile phone?"
Nothing seemed to work now. Patrick was so angry that he did not want to eat the food anymore.
When the secretary saw that Patrick was holding back his anger, she quickly came up with an idea. "How about this, Mr. Hopper. I help you to charge your phone when all of them are asleep at night? Meanwhile, you can use my phone to contact Madam Ramsay."
Patrick confessed, "I can't remember her phone number."
The secretary was stunned. "How can you forget that? She's your wife."
"That's because her number is so long!" Patrick could always take his mistake for granted.
"What about your house landline number?" He should remembered it, right?
Patrick raised his chin and said, "I can probably try." Probably...
The corner of the secretary's eyes twitched. All of a sudden, she felt so sorry for Amelia who was
worrying about him at home.
At Land of Fragrance.
Ding, ding, ding...
Huxton was surprised when he received a call from Patrick. "Sir! Did everything go well?"
"It went well." After Patrick briefly talked about whole story, he went straight to the point. "Where's Amelia? Ask her to come over and answer the phone!"
"Madam..." Huxton's heart skipped a beat. It was such a bad time for Patrick to call Amelia when she was not at home.
Patrick said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with her?"
Huxton answered honestly, "Madam is not at home."
Patrick's voice turned cold. "She's not at home, but you're at home?"
"Sir, I..."
Patrick roared, "Didn't I tell you to follow her?!"
"I'm sorry, sir! Madam went to work. I don't think anything could happen to her."
Patrick said gloomily, "After I just left and you started not to obey my orders. Huxton, what could you say?"
Huxton said self-condemnedly, "Sir, I'm really sorry. If you're not satisfied, I'll bring madam back from the company right away."
"No need!" Patrick said coldly, "Just make sure she is safe. I will let her relax for a few days. I'll get even with you when I get back!" "Yes sir..." Huxton breathed a sigh of relief. It was clear that sir's heart had softened but he did not admit it.
"And!" Patrick asked angrily, "What's Amelia's phone number?"
Huxton was stunned. "Sir, don't you know?"
Patrick was deep in thought. Why did everyone assume that he should know her phone number?
"Sir, her phone number is..." Huxton took out his phone from his pocket and began to read out Amelia's phone number.
At Roxxon Corporation.
"Amelia, you came back just in time. Your cell phone rang."
Doris who sat next to Amelia said while pointing at Amelia's phone on the table when Amelia returned to the sales department with a cup of tea. "Yes, I heard it, thanks"
Amelia put down the teacup. After getting the phone, she glanced at the caller ID and found that it was a unfamiliar number. She raised her eyebrows
and pressed the answer button in doubt.
"Hello? This is Amelia. Who are you?"
"Humph!" Patrick snorted.
Amelia was stunned at first and then she reflexively asked, "Are you... Patrick?"
"I thought you'd forget my voice the moment I left you for a few days," Patrick said in a cool tone.
Amelia's heart was beating fast. Before she wanted to choose her words, she blurted out sweetly, "Patrick, it's been so many days. Why don't you call home? Do you know how worried I am? I'm begging you. You're a man with a family. Can't you be more responsible?"
Patrick listened quietly and smiled, "Are you worry about me that much?"
Amelia ignored his teasing and went straight to the point. "Where are you now? Are you still halfway up the mountain?"
"You know I'm halfway up the mountain?"
"I saw you on TV two days ago!"
"I see." Patrick smiled lightly. "So you're paying so much attention to me. I'm truly flattered."
"Can you please be serious?" Amelia was so excited that she slightly choked with sobs. This b*stard, when could he understand her feelings as a wife?
When Patrick noticed that she was not in good mood, he stopped teasing her, "I've already settled down in the village. People here are simple and easygoing. There's nothing to worry about."
Amelia rubbed her tingling nose and asked, "How... how are the secretary and the rest doing?"
Patrick said, "They are fine as well. They didn't starve to death."
