Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 595

She wanted to ask him to come back numerous times. However, the replies that she always got was related to Sissi.

The sound of the shutters in Amelia's ears and flash lights made her came back to her senses. She then composed herself, walked up to the podium alone and nodded to the crowd.

Her small face looked energetic and glorious with light make up. All the men present secretly felt unworthy for her. The Apex Construction Corporation actually forced this gentle woman to face the public and took the blame. Was there nobody else in the company?

Amelia began to recite the apology script in a sincere manner under Jonathan's close attention.

When Amelia read half way through the script, she suddenly paused. Jonathan was so worried that he really wanted to rush up to the stage to grab the microphone and helped her finish the speech.

Fortunately, Amelia just stuck for a moment. After that she did not make any more mistakes.

Amelia ended her speech with, "We are responsible for this and willing to compensate for all the

mistakes." Then she bowed down to the camera.

After leaving the meeting hall, Amelia came to Jonathan and asked with a cheeky smile, "Uncle Tucker, how's it going? Did I read every single word correctly?"

When Ryker who had been following Amelia heard this, he could not help despising her in his heart. After all, it was only reciting a script. Was there anything for her to be proud of?

Jonathan darkened his face slightly and said, "President Ramsay, please control your emotion!"

"Huh?" Amelia replied as if she was like an idiot who could not figure out what was happening.

Jonathan gave her a headache look and lowered his voice. "Didn't you notice that some reporters were still here? Don't laugh If you don't want your smug expression to appear on the newspaper tomorrow! There was a total of 27 employees fatalities since the project started. Even if you want to act, at least act like you sympathize with them!"

"Oh! So that's what it is!" Amelia quickly hid the smile and put on a sad expression.

Jonathan looked at her carefully and snorted. "Now that's right!" "Haha..." Amelia who was being praised almost could not hold back her laughter. The moment she lost her composure, Jonathan gave her a severe glare.

Amelia felt suffocated. Then she quickly raised both of her index fingers and made a cross sign on her lips. She promised in a low and muffled voice, "I won't smile! And I promise I won't laugh anymore!" Jonathan would have looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh but this occasion was not suitable for him to do so. He thought that Amelia was more outstanding than Brittany. However, it seemed that she was not even as good as Brittany!

Ryker quietly witnessed this scene and reported to Kaleb afterwards. "There's nothing to be afraid of Amelia."

In the office.

Amelia enthusiastically invited Jonathan to sit opposite her. After that, she said to Ryker, "Assistant Ryker, please make two cups of coffee for us."

Ryker raised his eyebrows. "Okay."

When Ryker was about to turn and leave, Amelia added her request, "By the way, assistant Ryker, please add one teaspoon of milk and a third of sugar to my coffee. Thank you."

She was still so demanding when the company was in deep trouble! Ryker was like a wolf with sheep

skin and he answered, "I'll keep it in mind."

After Ryker closed the office door, Amelia seemed to think of something. She looked apologetically at Jonathan and said, "Uncle Tucker, I'm sorry that I made my own decision." Jonathan waved his hand as if he did not care. "I wonder why President Ramsay called me over here. Is there anything you want me to do?"

Amelia said, "There is indeed one."

Amelia mysteriously opened the drawer in front of her under Jonathan's strange gaze. She took out a stack of documents from it and pushed them to Jonathan. "This is the files I asked assistant Ryker to sort out for me. Uncle Tucker, you're this company's experienced employee. Can you help me take a look? Who are my father's old friends? It's easy for me to get into business with them."

Jonathan grunted and flipped through the materials carefully on his desk. When he turned to page three, his movement came to a halt. Jonathan looked up at Amelia and said, "President Ramsay, to tell you the truth, none of them is the company's so-called 'old friends'." "That's impossible!" Amelia said in disbelief. "Uncle Tucker, did you overlook it?"

Jonathan stared at Amelia's eyes and said word by word, "I did not overlook but I'm sure that Ryker has been hiding something from you!" Amelia narrowed her pupils and asked in a panic tone, "What the hell is going on? Why did assistant Ryker want to hide something from me?"

Jonathan said immediately, "President Ramsay, let's talk about these things later just in case Ryker overhears it when he comes back."

"Alright, sure!" Amelia put the documents that Ryker had sorted for her into the drawer in a hurry. Then she talked in a sobbing voice, "Uncle Tucker, the only person I can trust in the company is you!" Til definitely help you!" Jonathan swore.

Amelia took the opportunity to ask a question, "Uncle Tucker, what do you think I should do next to that would benefit the company?"

Jonathan analyzed and said, "The most urgent thing now is to pay the compensation to the victims' families. It won't be too late to have more business or investment later. What do you think?"

Amelia raised her eyebrow slightly. Jonathan's proposal was exactly the same like hers. "I think the same way."

"Alright!" When Jonathan heard the footsteps were getting closer at the door, he quickly said, "I'll sort out the list of the victims right away. Tomorrow morning, I'll accompany you to visit them." "Okay! Thank you so much." Amelia looked at him with concern and she was acting like an obedient puppet.

Then, Ryker came in with coffee in his hands. His eyes first fell on Amelia and Jonathan. Then he said calmly, "Your coffee."

After Amelia took the coffee, she made a toast to Jonathan as if she was holding a wine. A tacit understanding flowed between both of them which made Ryker frowned.

It seemed that Amelia trusted Jonathan very much.

"Should I report to Kaleb so that he could pin down Jonathan?" Ryker thought.

At Land of Fragrance.

Amelia could only let go of her tiredness and disguise from her body when she reached home.

After Amelia had her meal and showered, she switched on her computer and logged into Gmail.

The next second, an "unread mail" popped up.

Amelia squinted her eyes. Then she moved the mouse cursor and clicked on it. She found out that it was an email from Milton. The email was sent two days ago.

There were hundreds of words on the letter which express the melancholy of Milton being a guest in a unfamiliar place. Amelia enjoyed reading it and started to wonder when did Milton became such a poetic young man.

In the end, Milton wrote, "There's a kind of friendship called replying." When Amelia saw this, she was amused. She could only adjust her keyboard and started to type a reply email to show her sympathy.
