Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 980

At the Central Hospital.

After Patrick personally received Amelia's consultation number, both of them sat at the bench while waiting at the entrance of the doctor's office. Fortunately, there was not many people at this time, and soon it was Amelia's turn.

After the doctor finished checking Amelia's eyes, he told them that it was just a small problem. He would just prescribe her eye-drops in which she had to use three times a day.

Patrick glanced at Amelia and said to the doctor with a frown, "Doctor, she is very uncomfortable now. Is it possible for to you treat her eyes first?"

"Okay." The old doctor saw how anxious Patrick was. He could not help but smile and said to Amelia, "You are married to a good husband. It looks like he really loves you."

Amelia's face turned slightly red. She wanted to pretend that she did not hear what the doctor had said, but she also felt that this action would be a little petty. So, Amelia slightly responded with a "hmm", which she hoped was a response to the doctor as well as a recognition to Patrick.

Since Patrick sat next to Amelia, he could clearly see how bashful she was.

A sense of indescribable tenderness arose in his heart. In fact, she really did not want much, but he always gave her too little...

Patrick carried Amelia's medicine in one hand and held her hand tightly with the other, albeit against Amelia's wishes. The two of them left for the hospital's underground garage and entered Patrick's Lamborghini one after the other.

As soon as Amelia fastened her seat belt, she heard Patrick informing her, "I'll be taking you home."

Amelia refused, "No, it's time for me to go back to the company!"

Patrick laughed, "Do you want to go back to the company wearing such a funny pair of sunglasses?"

Amelia subconsciously touched the sunglasses on the bridge of her nose and answered with some embarrassment, "I can purchase a women's sunglasses first on the street before going back to the company."

However, Patrick retorted coldly, "The company won't collapse without you for a day. Besides, your trachoma could be contagious. I would advise you to hide your eyes and take good care of them first so as not to harm the rest of the employees in your company."

Although Amelia did not know whether Patrick's words were true, she decided to believe in him. "Well then, thank you for all the trouble today.

Please...please take me back to the Land of Fragrance."

Patrick gave her a sidelong glance and smirked, "Do you think that today is the only day that you've troubled me?"

Amelia pursed her lips. She knew that if she continued, Patrick would ask for a reward that was a very shameful kind of remuneration but which she could not refuse.

She simply turned her head away and looked out of the window, whispering softly, "Let's go then."

Patrick stared at her side profile with regret and said, "Remember, whatever that you owe me, I'll get it back from you sooner or later."

It seemed that he had let her go this time.

While Amelia was almost relieved, Patrick suddenly single-handedly placed his palm at the back of her seat and pressed the upper part of his body onto her as pecked her on the mouth quickly.

"Ah, you! How could you..." Amelia immediately sat up, and her sweet voice masked a hint of annoyance. "Why do you like taking advantage of others when I am in such a vulnerable situation?"

Patrick licked the sexy corner of his mouth and answered her with a ruffian smile, "When a man helps a woman, it is either because of love or out of lust. Since I helped you so much and only demand a kiss, this is already considered a steal for you." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

And silent fell.

At Land of Fragrance.

"I'll take my leave now." Amelia initially thought that it was enough to just say that, but on second thought, she added in a low voice, "Drive carefully."

"Don't rush to get off the car first. I have a question to ask you." Patrick knew that Amelia was very disobedient, so he locked the door right after he finished talking.

Upon witnessing this, Amelia had no choice but to retract her outstretched hand. She turned her head and glared at him. "What is it?"

Patrick went straight to the point, "Why did Kingston collaborate with the Environmental Protection Bureau to set up a trap for your company?"

It was finally here!

The question that Amelia dreaded to answer was finally asked!

But then, something was not right... Patrick would have found out all the secrets from Kingston by using his special means. So why was he still asking her?

Amelia bounced back the conversation to Patrick and asked, "You already made Kingston so miserable. Wouldn't you have already known the reason behind the conflict?"

Patrick looked at her and warned in a low voice, "I really hoped that I could hear the truth from you personally."

Amelia felt numb.

There were only two paths in front of her:

Firstly, lie. Then she would be exposed by Patrick who probably knew the truth beforehand and get cursed by him like a dog.

Secondly, tell the truth, to which she would still be subjected to Patrick's curses.

While Amelia was still hesitating, Patrick reminded her calmly, "You can continue to cover up like how you did when we were at Owen's place, but this will only make matters worse for you.

I guess it doesn't matter anyway. I have Kingston's contact saved in my phone. I can give him a call anytime and clearly ask about all the grudges between the both of you."

Amelia made her decision instantly. "Well...you don't have to take the trouble to do that! I can tell you everything you want to know now."

When Amelia finished talking about the business competition between Kingston and George in their early business days, she secretly glanced at Patrick and noticed that he was still looking forward to her continuing her part of the story.

Seeing this, she felt a headache.

Generally at this time, normal people would naturally think that the reason why Kingston picked on her was due to the resentment left by her father's generation. Since George had thus been hospitalized, this grudge will automatically be transferred onto her as George's descendent, would it not?

Upon hearing Amelia pause, Patrick urged her to continue with interest, "What happened after that? Go on."

Amelia's delicate features were shielded with a layer of gloom. Did Patrick really treat this as a story?

His face was still full of interest!

Curling her lips, Amelia had no choice but to disclose the Eastern District project that was about to start by the government to Patrick.

It was not that Patrick had never received the news regarding the Eastern Region project, but just that he did not pay attention to it.

After all, the enterprises under the construction industry and Roxxon Corporation were out of reach. He did not have the energy and interest to waste them on other things.

In addition, when Charles mentioned about the Eastern District project to him, there were a lot of ambiguous words in his explanation which made Patrick feel even more confused and baffled.

From then on, Patrick labeled the Eastern District project as "insanity" and he became more and more indifferent to it.

Now after hearing what Amelia had said, Patrick's first thought was, "Since when was Apex Construction Corporation capable enough to take over the entire Eastern District project?"

Amelia's heart skipped a beat as she stubbornly argued, "Yes, of course! Why not? Although Apex Construction Corporation has been damaged in the past, it still has its foundation. Apart from Kingston's company, we are almost undefeated in Northville. If the government doesn't give us the project, who else can they give it to?"

A look of surprise flashed through Patrick's deep eyes. "Did you mean that the government already
