Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 713

"Hey! The microphone." When Kaiden saw that Amelia was lost in thought, he could not help but softly remind her.

Amelia turned her stiff neck and glanced at him. Then her eyes looked down at the microphone that he handed over.

She reached out to take it.

After that, she raised her arm slowly...

Amelia talked to the crowd with a pale face, "I'm here. I sincerely hope that all the leaders will give priority in assigning the projects to Apex Construction Corporation. Our company has lots of talents with excellent backgrounds. Now, with the joining this few well-known allies, I don't think you can find other construction company present here better than us!"

Amelia said the last sentence very impolitely.

At first she wanted to make peace with everyone here. Then, she completely realized that these people were just cruel!

Even if people were kind to them, they might not repay with kindness. So basically an eye for an eye was the best way!

Zheng Yiqiang's face turned cold but what could they say?

Their construction company were indeed doing well these days. However, they could not attract the wealthy investor like the Quartleys. Not to say the talented Kaiden whose designs could be sold at an auction!

Moreover, Amelia and Patrick were yet to divorce, which meant that she still got two financial resources to support her!

Even Zheng Yiqiang who was in his heyday at the moment felt helpless from the bottom of his heart. How could he competed? He knew that he was going to lose!

After walking out of from the government hall, Amelia's heel was unstable and she fell off from the red carpet staircases.

"President Ramsay!" It was too late for Jonathan to help her.

It was lucky that Kaiden walked few steps in front of her. When he heard Jonathan's shout, he subconsciously turned around and helped Amelia who was going to fall on him.

Kaiden stared at Amelia's weak and painful face, "Are you okay?"

Then, a shout sounded in front of them, "Hey! Kaiden! Amelia!"

Kaiden looked over and happened to see Mr. Stone rushing down the stairs. It did not take long for him to come up to them.

When Mr. Stone saw that Kaiden was holding Amelia's arm, he frowned and asked, "Amelia, what's wrong? Do you need my help?"

Amelia slowed down a bit and withdrew her arm politely from Kaiden's hand. She gently rushed towards the three men who were looking at her and said, "I'm fine. Thank you."

Mr. Stone's worried face turned into a charming smile. "It's good that you're alright."

Kaiden hit Mr. Stone's chest with his backhand and lifted his lips which were thinner than a girl's, "It's all thanks to you just now! If someone really wants to call my cousin, I'll be f*cking screwed!"

Mr. Stone widened his eyes when he heard that.

After a while, Mr. Stone regained his voice, "You mean Mr. Quartley's investment in Apex Construction Corporation was made up by you?!"

"Shh!" Kaiden's face turned cold. "Slow down your voice! If someone else hears you, I'll never let you go!"

Mr. Stone said indignantly, "I haven't deal with you yet you said that you'll never let me go?"

Kaiden said seriously, "I'm just helping someone in need! Listen, we are on the same boat now with Apex Construction Corporation. If you leak the news, I'll tell your leaders that you took benefits from Apex Construction Corporation in advance and cooperated with us to lie. Let's see whether will they fire you!"

Mr. Stone was stunned for a moment before he said bitterly, "F*ck! Why did I play along with you just now! You lost your d*mn conscience!"

Amelia who stood aside said softly, "Mr. Stone... I'm sorry. I got you into trouble. Don't worry. If something happens, I'll take the responsibility alone.

I won't be a burden to you."

When Mr. Stone heard this, he felt even more sorrowful. "Kaiden, take a look at Amelia's behavior and then look at yours... Yours one sucks!"

"Alright. You can leave now!" Kaiden's temper flared up. He immediately kicked Mr. Stone's body with his foot.

Mr. Stone wore branded from head to toes and he could not bear with Kaiden's kick, so he left after cursing at Kaiden!

As soon as Mr. Stone left, Kaiden immediately said to Amelia with an unhappy face, "You don't know how to appreciate people's kindness. I'm the person who helped you the most. Instead, you are desperate to thank Mr. Stone. Is it my fault to help you to lie just now?"

"No..." Amelia looked at him solemnly. "After leaving the government hall, I have been looking for an opportunity to thank you formally. However I don't know where to start..."

Kaiden snorted. "Thank you. There are only two words in total. Is it really that hard to say?"

Amelia said one word at a time, "You helped me so much that I can't repay you with just the word 'thank you'."

Kaiden was pleased with himself. He thought to himself that he had helped her so much. It was not too much even if she fell in love with him.

Jonathan smiled and said, "Let's not just standing here. Why don't we find a restaurant to sit down?"

Kaiden nodded his head happily. "Okay. I have enough time anyway. I'll do whatever you want."

Amelia on the other hand appeared to be her head was preoccupied with a lot of things. She followed Jonathan's footsteps most of the time.

At a theme restaurant.

"Sir, madam, what would you like to drink?" When the waiter was taking order, Amelia wanted to order something to calm down her thoughts, "I want a glass of ice water. What about you guys?"

Kaiden tapped the table with his fingertips and said faintly, "Drinking too much ice water is not good for your body."

Amelia threw an unmoved look at Jonathan. "I have ordered ice water. What do you want to drink, Uncle Tucker?"

Kaiden's face darkened when Amelia just skipped him.

Jonathan looked at Kaiden in embarrassment and then said to Amelia, "I'm fine with anything."

Amelia nodded. She turned and said to Kaiden, "You are the only one left. Go ahead. What do you want to drink?"

Kaiden said to the waiter unhappily, "I want a cup of hot water. The hottest and boiling one."

Childish!

Amelia shook her head, she looked sideways at the waiter and added, "Please get us a cup of hot water, a cup of warm water and a cup of cold water. Thank you."

The waiter's mouth twitched as he thought, "Who are these weird people? They're so stingy that they're not even willing to order a cup of beverage!"

Kaiden complained, "Is this your sincerity? You don't even want to order a main dish?" NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

A hint of amusement flashed across Amelia's beautiful face. "I'm going to order some. Why are you in such a hurry?"

After a pause, she said to the waiter who was still waiting beside her, "Hi, could you please just help us prepare the few cups of water that we have ordered first? Meanwhile we can have a look on the menu, so we won't be wasting each other's time."
