Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 578

"What are you doing here?" Patrick looked at Sissi, who was leaning against the wall, and asked with an unpleasant look, "Did the doctor allow you to get out of bed?" Sissi let out a helpless smile. "I came out for a walk. I've been in my room all day, I'm sick of it."

Patrick put his phone back into his pocket and asked gruffly, "Then why did you knock on my door?"

"I think you're bored being stuck in your room all day too. I'm afraid that you'll be bored to death, so I came to see you." Sissi said matter-of-factly.

Patrick looked at her indifferently and said, "I have a wife. What if someone misunderstands it when you come running to me like this?"

The look in Sissi's eyes darkened. "I didn't think that much..."

"Go back to your room!" With this, Patrick slammed the door with a tiny sense of shame and anger.

Just by seeing her, he could not help but got softhearted. If he continued to be alone with her, there was not any guarantee that he would not do anything impulsive.

However, Sissi, who was blocked outside the door,

did not feel defeated. She even chuckled.

According to her understanding of Patrick, the more he lost his temper with her, the more it proved that he had her on his mind. It was just his pride that made him unable to forgive her in a short period of time. At Land of Fragrance.

In the middle of the night, Amelia was awakened by the ringing of her phone. She grabbed her phone and found that it was from the family number of the Ramsay Family.

Raising her eyebrows, Amelia pressed the answer button and put it to her ear. "Hello?" said Amelia softly.

"Amelia! It's Aunt Alice! Daniel, he... No, it's the development zone..."

Alice's panicked voice filled Amelia's ears, turning her sleepy expression into grimness. "Did you mean that the building that Daniel had just constructed in the tourist area had...collapsed?"

"Yes... The specific situation is still unclear... The only news from the development zone is hundreds of construction workers were resting in a nearby dormitory at night... I'm afraid that they might be all buried inside..."

Upon hearing this, Amelia got a little light-headed. If possible, she hoped that it was April Fool's Day or she was still dreaming. However, Alice's sobs dragged her back to the cruel reality. There was no time to idle around!

Amelia got out of bed as fast as she could to change. While tying up her hair, she hurried downstairs.

Huxton, who was dozing off on the sofa, immediately awakened when he heard movement coming from the stairs.

Seeing that Amelia was well dressed, Huxton asked in a clear voice, "Madam, where are you going?"

Amelia did not hide her impatience, but her thoughts were clear. She said, "The building of Apex Construction Corporation had collapsed, and the nearby construction workers may have been trapped inside. I need to get to the scene to see what's going on!"

Huxton felt that this was not trivial matter. He picked up his suit jacket on the tea table, straightened up and said, "I'll send you there."

Amelia nodded and added, "By the way, please gather all the manpower that you can. I'll be needing help!"

Just a hint from Huxton and all of the men in black came into the living room at once from all over the house. He then said, "You, call all hospitals in Northville and ask them to send ambulances to the scene. You, contact all police stations in Northville to send search dogs to find the trapped victims. As for you, contact all of the construction teams in Northville and let them bring over cranes and excavators. And you..."

After delegating a list of tasks in an orderly manner, Huxton looked back and said to Amelia, "Madam, let's go."

"Alright!" Amelia nodded her head solemnly.

When Huxton and Amelia arrived at the scene of the accident, they were met with chaos. The sirens of the police cars and ambulances rose and fell in the air, accompanied by the presence of a flock of reporters. However, they were all expelled by the relevant units, "It's very dangerous here. Nonpersonnel are prohibited from entering!"

The reporters persisted and said, "We'll just take a picture and leave!"

"What's there to take pictures? Please leave!" The relevant units were getting riled up. Once these photos were published, the reputation of Apex Construction Corporation would take a hard hit and plummet. But such a method of stopping them was useless.

The reporters would not miss any chance for some relevant photos.

Seeing this, Amelia turned to Huxton and said, "There are so many people here. We can't drive the car any more further inside. Let's get off here."

"Okay." Huxton parked the car outside of the crowd.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Amelia unbuckling her seat belt. He quickly said, "Madam, you'd better not get off the car."

Amelia was dismayed. "Why?"

Huxton pursed his lips and said, "You're the daughter of the president of Apex Construction Corporation. If you get out of the car, there will be questions blasting your way. I advise you to stay in the car." Amelia's voice was tense. She looked out of the window and said, "How can I just stand by and watch when such a horrible accident has happened to my father's company?"

Huxton said, "You're not in charge of this project. You don't know how it operates or which part of it had gone wrong. If you go out like this, other than being surrounded by reporters, you'll also get beat up by the family members of the construction staff. Do you believe this?"

"I do." Amelia raised her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows. For the first time she felt she was at her wits' end.

Huxton glanced at her and said, "Madam, this kind of accident can't be undone or resolved by one person alone, so don't blame yourself too much."

With that, he opened the car door and walked out.

Amelia looked up on intuition. "Huxton, where are you going?"

"I'm going to find out what's going on for you. You just stay in the car, and don't even roll down the window."

Huxton walked toward the centre of the accident after giving Amelia a determined look.

Early morning, at The Ramsay Family.

Amelia was leading ahead, followed by Huxton. When they entered the living room of the Ramsay Family, a grave atmosphere greeted them.

After peering at the people sitting on the sofa one by one, Amelia strode towards one of them and gave them a hard slap with all her strength!

When Amelia retracted her painful palm, Alice and Brittany were still in shock. Daniel rubbed his handsome face, which was hurt from the blow, and slightly closed his eyes without uttering a word. "How dare you hit Daniel!" Brittany jumped up from the sofa when she realized what had happened.

However, she was pushed back down mercilessly by

Huxton, who was guarding by Amelia's side.

Fortunately, Alice managed to hold Brittany in time.

Otherwise, she would have fallen to the ground.

"Brittany, stop making trouble!" Alice advised Brittany, exhausted.

After Alice finished, Amelia turned back and said to Huxton, "Be gentler. She's pregnant."

"Yes, madam" Huxton replied indifferently.
