Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 592

Kaleb wanted to use these people to give Amelia some trouble. When she was really helpless, he would pretend to be kind and help her. He believed that she would be very grateful, trusted him even more, and would assign more important task to him in the future!

"President Ramsay?" Ryker looked down. He stared at Amelia's face and called her gently. When he saw that she was sleeping soundly, he could not help but sneered.

This woman was just like a dumb blonde. All the people in Apex Construction Corporation were very anxious yet she had the mood to sleep here!

Just go ahead and sleep... Sooner or later, there would be a day where people would just take her position without her knowing it!

After Ryker stopped looking at Amelia, he put the documents onto the table. Then he left dismissively.

As soon as the door closed, Amelia opened her eyes slowly.

After she confirmed the sound of footsteps were getting further away from the door, she picked up her upper body and sat at the office chair. She pulled the drawer and took out the documents that Daniel gave her. Then she compared it with Ryker's documents. In the end, she confirmed that Ryker just treated her like an outsider that could be easily blinded.

Oh, it did not matter. She would still keep Ryker. She needed him to send some wrong messages to Kaleb from time to time to disrupt their stalking and judgment.

At the Hopper Family.

After Amelia finished work, she drove to The Hopper Family's house. As soon as her car entered the outer yard, she was stopped by a group of patrolling security guards.

Amelia rolled down the window and stuck her head out to ask them, "Why did you stop me?"

The security guard said, "Ms. Amelia, Madam said that don't think about entering the house unless Second Young Master returns to Northville safely."

The corners of Amelia's eyes twitched. "Patrick left on his own. Are they putting the blame on me now?"

The security guard said, "Ms. Amelia, we're just following madam's order..."

Amelia stopped talking and said, "I didn't want to come here. It's Howard who called me over. Are you sure you want to stop me?"

The security guards looked at each other and one of them whispered, "Ms. Amelia, did you not know that the master had devoted himself to Buddha and doesn't care about any affairs now. Madam is in charge of the family affairs."

Amelia was stunned for a moment. She knew that Howard was really into Buddha recently. However, she did not know he was so devoted that he did not even care about the world affairs at all.

"It's impossible. If he really doesn't care about anything, how does he know that something had happened to the Apex Construction Corporation?"

After thinking about it for a while, she thought that it must be Eve who deliberately stopped her from seeing Howard, and she ordered the security guard to say so!

When Amelia thought about Eve's cruel behavior, she could not help but worry about Howard.

After Amelia moved her head back to the car, she immediately winded up her car window.

When the security guards breathed a sigh of relief, she clenched her teeth and slammed the gas pedal. Her car sped out like an arrow from the string and the group of securities were stunned by that. "F*ck!" After a while, only the security guard came to their senses... However it was too late for them to chase after her because Amelia's car had been long

disappeared.

"Hurry up! Call Madam!"

In the inner courtyard.

Amelia parked her car at a strategic place where she could easily escape. After she looked at her rearview mirrors and confirmed that nobody chased after her, she seized the opportunity. She walked to Howard's house quickly.

Unfortunately, Amelia did not even manage to step into the house yet she was splashed by two basins of cold water. Her body was drenched.

The cold water dripped down from Ameli's hair and soaked through her shirt. Her clothes was so wet and made her chattering.

Amelia raised her wet eyes and she saw Eve who stood behind the maids. Eve had the arrogant look and even revealed some hatred on her face. When Amelia found it funny when she looked at Eve. Eve was so restless and always against Amelia and Howard. Her life must be so lonely.

Amelia wiped the water droplets on her face with her hand. She was embarrassed but she stayed calm and called Eve, "Mom."

Eve walked out of the door and glanced at the two maids with empty basin in their hands. The two maids nodded their heads and closed the redwood door leaving Eve and Amelia outside.

Eve scolded Amelia, "Shame on you. You let Patrick run away and now you are trying to borrow money as an excuse to get close to Howard?"

Amelia was neither overbearing, "My father's company is struggling now. I really have no other alternatives, only then would I think about borrowing money from dad first."

After a pause, Amelia added, "I will return the money."

Eve raised her eyebrows and said, "Well, that's easy to say. Your company is struggling to survive. What are you going to pay for it?"

Amelia said in a low tone, "If dad is willing to invest, he will become my company's shareholder. Then he will be qualified to enjoy bonus yearly."

"Don't mention the bonus because it's not even enough to pay back the debts." Eve glanced at Amelia and spared no effort to belittle her. "In my opinion, you just want to take advantage of my husband's kindness for you so that you don't have to pay for the debt!"

Amelia refuted angrily, "I will keep my promise!"

Eve snorted and said, "Your company are having recession now. It was impossible for you to get any big deal in a short time. You definitely will not pay

the money back!"

Although Amelia was very angry, she had to admit that what Eve said was true!

Eve deliberately said, "If I were you, I wouldn't ask the elders to lend me money. I would find my own way to solve the problem. After all, you are with the most dignity. Aren't you?"

Amelia clenched her fists in silence.

"Well, it seems that after this incident, I will change my impression of you... Come on. Come in the house with me. Take the check issued by my husband and repay your company's debt straightforwardly!" Eve's sympathetic tone was so unbearable that Amelia could not bear it anymore. "No! I can find my own way to solve it! I will not trouble dad!"

After Amelia finished her words, she turned and walked away.

Eve would normally got angry by Amelia's arrogant attitude. However, she smiled so happily at this moment.

Eve's piercing laughter was laughing at Amelia's uselesness and weaknesses.

Amelia buried her head and got into the car. She turned on the heater and the radio. She could not fall sick when she was alone and helpless now. She could not have a bad mood as well. There were many people waiting to see her made a fool of herself!

The car's temperature was rising gradually by the heater's warmth. It was only then that Amelia who was wrapped in a wet outfit felt slightly better.

She sat still for a while until she felt that her fingers were not as stiff as before. Then she steered her car and made a turn.

When she left the Hopper's residence, the radio was playing the song 'Sweet Sweet Love'. Amelia's heart ached and for no reason tears welled up in her eyes...
