Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 593

At Land of Fragrance.

After parking the car in the underground garage, Amelia unbuckled her seat belt and walked out from the car.

The next second, a bunch of reporters came out of nowhere. They were like the hungry wolves kept surrounding her and took lots of photos.

Amelia frowned. She was just being splashed by water a few moments ago and she was later being captured by the reporters. She was really unlucky.

The reporters ignored Amelia's image and bombarded her with lots of questions, "Ms. Ramsay, is the gossip true between you and Milton? When you hugged him, do you not worry about tarnishing the Hopper and Ramsay family's reputation?"

Amelia composed herself and raised her eyes to look straight at the camera. She showed a smiling expression and said, "If meeting male friend and giving him a friendly hug is considered as gossip and will ruin family's reputation, then there's no need for other women go out as well, or it will be a crime even if they to look at any other men on the street."

"Ms. Ramsay, I heard that since your father's

company had an issue, you brother-in-law who as the chairman of the company has replaced by you. I'd like to ask you how would you deal with your company's emergency situation." This was the second issue that the media concerned about.

Amelia said in a serious tone, "Since it's an emergency, please give me some time to think about the solution."

The media asked again, "It is said that the collapse of the building had caused twenty-three casualties. According to the expert's analysis, the cause of it was because of the building's quality. What do you think of this?"

Amelia said, "In my opinion, this mistake is not on me nor the company. However it was the previous chairman's fault! That man has been taken to the police station now. If you want to ask his opinion, I don't mind to give you address of the police station."

The media reporters were sad when they heard this. They laid an ambush here during this vacation just for the shocking news. They did not expect that she would be toying with them.

The reporters had no choice but to ask some irrelevant questions, "Ms. Ramsay, what happened to you? Why is your body wet?"

Amelia opened her mouth but this question completely stumped her.

Fortunately, Fluxton had arrived in time with his men. He was polite yet did not lose the strength to protect her to get her out of the ring of reporters. Huxton's men secretly gave the reporters who were eager to interview Amelia some money and they persuaded the reporters to leave politely.

Since Huxton and others had been very reasonable from the beginning to the end, and the reporters had asked their assigned questions so they did not continue to pester Amelia.

Huxton protected Amelia with his own body all the time until home. Dr. Scarlett was shocked, "What's going on?" Then, Huxton threw out a sentence with no expression on his face, "Shut up! You're so noisy." Dr. Scarlett glared at him, "You can tear off your ears if you don't want to hear my voice!"

When Amelia noticed that they were about to quarrel again, she said immediately, "I'm fine. It's just when I drove my car into the garage, I was blocked by reporters who were waiting there. Fortunately, Huxton showed up in time."

After a pause, Amelia turned to the man next to her and asked, "By the way, Huxton, you were able to arrive here all of a sudden. Did you placed a bug on me again?"

Huxton nodded silently. He looked at Amelia's face but he knew that Amelia's feelings were not as calm at this moment. So he did not say anything sarcastic.

"Thank you!" For the first time, Amelia felt that being spied on was such a safe thing to do.

Dr. Scarlett pulled Amelia over from Huxton's side.

Then she asked Amelia question while helping her to take off her wet coat, "That's not what I'm asking!

I'm asking how you did you get wet?"

Amelia followed Dr. Scarlett's motion and shook off her jacket. Then she flipped the wet hair hanging on her chest to her back and said indifferently, "It's snowy on the road, so I got wet."

Dr. Scarlett look at her in disbelief.

Amelia reached out and patted her clothes. Because she wore the down jacket and most of the water was absorbed by it, so her clothes were not that wet.

In order to avoid Dr. Scarlett's questioning eyes, she immediately said, "I'll take a bath first. Suit yourselves."

As soon as Amelia went upstairs, Dr. Scarlett immediately asked Huxton with a sullen face, "Hello! She has been so tired for the past two days. Why your master still not coming back to help her?"

Huxton gave her a cold look and said, "Sir has his own decision, there's no need for you to mind about it." "Well, maybe your master doesn't even know what happened in Northville..." What Dr. Scarlett did not expect was that her unintentional words had revealed the truth.

At the master bedroom.

Amelia took a dry towel, wrapped around her head and rubbed it. Then she stepped out of the bathroom and began to recite the speech that Jonathan and Ryker drafted for her.

Without realizing how long the time had past, the phone in Amelia's pocket rang. It was a phone call from Howard.

Her eyes were slightly dimmed and she cleared her throat. Then she tried her best to face Howard as if nothing had happened.

"Dad?"

"Amelia, haven't you got off work yet?"

"Oh! I... I have finished work. I'm at home now."

"You're back? But why didn't I see you?"

"Dad, the home I'm talking about is not the one you're staying but the one at the Land of Fragrance."

Howard was very confused. "Didn't we make an appointment? You have to come to my place first after you finish work. I've already prepared the

check."

When Amelia thought of Eve's mean face, she suddenly felt suffocated.

Besides, Amelia did not want Howard and Eve quarrel because of her. "Dad, I have chosen the investment candidate this afternoon. However, my schedule was too busy today so I forgot to tell you." "You've got a candidate?" Howard's voice was full of confusion. "Then tell me who it is, I'll give you some advices."

Amelia casually mentioned the name she flipped from documents and said perfunctorily, "You may not know him. His company has just been listed on the market and it is still not famous in Northville! However, I heard that his family is rich. He is a rich second generation that have no idea where to spend his money!"

Howard's disbelieving voice sounded. "Amelia, you..."

At this time, Amelia exclaimed, "Oh, dad! I heard the doorbell ringing downstairs. Let me go and have a look first. That's it for all!"

After that, she hung up the phone in a hurry.

Whew... Whew...

Amelia patted her heart which was thumping nonstop. It was really so uncomfortable to lie. However, she hoped that no one would find out about it.

At this moment, the phone screen lit up again.

Amelia was so scared. She was afraid that it would be Howard's phone call to question her again.

She looked and saw that the caller was not Howard but it was also an elder who made her frown. It was Ryan!

"Well, answer it then. I guess he just call to ask about the company's situation." thought Amelia.
