Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 216

The secretary continued to explain, but Patrick was now so angry that he could not speak, and his face was full of rage.

"It's all over the news now, and I'm getting calls from Shawn's agent saying that it's imperative that Amelia clears up the misunderstanding, otherwise there will be incalculable damage to both Shawn and our company! Mr. hopper, what do you think?"

Patrick muttered a curse, "D*mn it!" It was hard to know if he's upset about Amelia and Shawn or about "The Water of a Life".

He didn't have time to think as the secretary was still waiting for his instructions, "Tell Shawn's agent to wait until I get to the office if there's anything to talk about!"

"Yes, boss!"

After hanging up the phone, Patrick slammed his fist into the wall, Amelia, this easy woman was rumored to be having an affair with Shawn?

Hastily returning to the table, Patrick tried to act as if nothing had happened and said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, there's an emergency at the office waiting for me to take care of it, sorry about that."

After Patrick strode away, Eve and Howard looked at each other strangely, "He is in such a hurry to get something done that he's not even eating."

In the office of Roxxon Corporation.

Near the couch, there were several people standing, Shawn and his agent, Amelia, the all- knowing secretary, and the frowning, handsome boss, Patrick.

"Bang!", Patrick slapped the magazine in his hands heavily onto the table.

Everyone in the room was shocked, especially the agent who had just been on the phone screaming at his secretary. He hadn't seen Patrick's temper firsthand and thought the boss was easy to handle.

Patrick yelled, "Shawn, I called you here because I was hoping you would give me a reasonable explanation."

The agent cringed and asked, "Shouldn't Roxxon be the one to give us an explanation?"

Patrick glared at the agent and said slowly, "Shawn is an idol and his every move is under the spotlight. It's already inappropriate to go out in public in private. How can I be sure that it's not Shawn using my staff to make the news?"

The agent said incredulously, "Shawn is so famous now. He doesn't need to resort to a nameless woman to hype him up. He's on the upswing of his career right now, and he can't have women and gossip around him. Surely the female Roxxon employees were pestering him and purposely pulling his hat off to give the paparazzi a chance to sneak a peek! Oh, maybe this intimate photo was pre- planned by this woman, just waiting for Shawn to step headfirst into a trap!" "Ursula, don't insult her!" Shawn, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up to stop the agent's rebuke, "I can vouch on my personal reputation that she definitely didn't do it."

Ursula Cullen was filled with anger, "Are you confused by her? How can you be so sure she didn't do it!"

"I just can be sure!" Shawn swept a quick glance at Amelia who stood serenely still, not seeing a hint of guilt from her.

Shawn continued, "Two days ago, I was sick in Roxxon alone, and at that time there was a chance for her to take as many as photos of me if she wanted to, but she chose to hide my identity from her colleagues and was kind enough to take me to the hospital for treatment. So Ursula, I'm sure she's not the kind of person you're talking about."

It was the first time Ursula had heard of it, and he felt surprised and embarrassed at the same time, not daring to look Amelia in the eye.

Patrick listened quietly to Shawn's words, from which he could sense Shawn's admiration and affection for Amelia. He was annoyed by his jealousy, but knew that now was not the time to get angry. "Back to the topic at hand, Amelia, Shawn, can one of you tell me why you were so close together in front of the office? "

Amelia confessed, "I was the one who first recognized Shawn's outfit and walked over to greet him. I was trying to convince him to go back to the hospital to rest and not make things too difficult for his agent, but I didn't expect such a bad thing to happen just when he finally decided to go back."

Patrick switched his gaze to Shawn, "You've been coming to Roxxon a lot lately. Is it something important to deal with?"

Shawn said hesitantly, "I'm here for you! Because I felt so unsatisfied with that scene in the rain! What happened afterward... you all know."

Ursula said worriedly, "What... what should we do now?"

Patrick responded with indifference, "You stirred things up, and now you're asking me instead what to do?"

Ursula lost his voice for a while, then said to Patrick in an inferior voice,"Mr. Hopper, I know you have a lot of power, and I am sure you will find a way to recover these losses. This incident is

nothing more than a paparazzi making up a story, and if your competitors use it to increase misunderstanding, it will not be good for the image of your company's employee."

Seeing that Patrick didn't express his opinion, the agent was bolder and said, "As long as you help Shawn resolve this misunderstanding, after that he will complete whatever is difficult without complaining, do you think... is okay?"

"Ursula Cullen!" Shawn frowned tightly, upset at Ursula's lack of respect for him.

"Calm down, no pain no gain! You got me?" Ursula now just wanted to get this over as quickly as possible.

Patrick looked curiously at Amelia, "Now you can be the only one left who hasn't expressed an opinion."

Expressing an opinion? That was a nice way to say it. He just wanted her to tame him!

Ursula was right, no pain no gain, and she has to look out for everyone's best interests as well, "I hope you can help me and Shawn with this."

Patrick was annoyed again, "You and Shawn?"

Amelia looked up and met his eyes, "Yes, me and Shawn."

There was no grammatical problem with her words, but he felt particularly uncomfortable, "Everyone out except Madam Amelia Ramsay."

Ursula sheepishly asked, "So, what happened to Shawn..."

Patrick replied in the affirmative: "I'll handle it."

The words, like a plane in the sky finally landing, relieved Shawn.

The agent couldn't wait to hurry Shawn along. Shawn took a worried glance at Amelia before he left. They stared at each other for a few seconds, and Amilia smiled calmly and waved goodbye to him.

The secretary followed them, closed the office door and left.

Upon seeing Amelia interacting with Shawn without concern for his feelings, Patrick angrily yelled, "Look at me!" From NôvelDrama.Org.

Amelia clenched her hands behind her back and looked at him in silence.
