Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 698

Patrick understood Amelia very well. She had never been interested in his private gathering. Thus, he had long since prepared himself to be rejected by her.

When Amelia heard this, her bright eyes flashed with a hint of calculative after some thoughts. When Patrick was waiting for her rejection, she replied unexpectedly, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Patrick was stunned. "What did you say?"

Amelia closed her car door and she locked it with her car key. Then she smiled sweetly at Patrick, "Didn't you ask me to go along with you?"

Patrick never thought that he would actually set a trap for himself!

When Patrick was thinking how he regretted about his decision, Amelia had already walked to his car in a few steps. She walked past the front of the car and went to the front passenger seat.

"Amelia!" Patrick shouted her name all of a sudden. When she looked over, he pretended to be calm, "I suddenly remember that it may be inappropriate for you to go with me."

Amelia looked at him, "Why?"

"Because..." Patrick's eyes were calm. "The attendees are all men. They will feel uncomfortable when there's a woman there."

"Really?" Amelia glanced at him calmly. The answer was obvious. He was not going to meet with his high school friends!

Patrick nodded and said perfunctorily, "When a girl is invited to a gathering next time, I'll definitely bring you there."

"Okay." Amelia took a step back and said with a fake smile, "Drive safe and have fun."

When Patrick heard this, he immediately felt relaxed and a smile appeared on his face, "Well, you too."

Both of them drove their own cars and went on their own way.

There was a crossroad after driving out of the first juctionc from the Land of Fragrance.

When Amelia saw the red light sign in front of her, she slowly stepped on the brakes.

There were two to three cars in between Patrick and Amelia's.

For some unknown reason, after the green light lit up, she followed Patrick's car with a safe distance.

However, Patrick was very familiar with Amelia's car model and plate number. Besides that, her tracking skills were not very good, so he discovered it immediately.

Patrick kept staring at the rearview mirror, then he looked at the road condition in front of him. After that, he stepped on the accelerator and the Lamborghini rushed out at lightning speed!

"Sh*t!" His acceleration was beyond Amelia's. With her driving skill and boldness, she could definitely not catch up with his speed.

The car gradually stopped, as well as her frustration. Amelia knew that her tracking skills must be so bad that it made Patrick discovered her.

Amelia punched the steering wheel sadly and cursed in her heart, "Amelia, you are so useless! You can't even keep your husband!"

In front of her.

Patrick got rid of Amelia, and his eyes suddenly grew with a flash of deep thought.

In the cafe.

Amelia took the chiffon cake and milk tea from Jessica. Then she asked the question not long after she entered the shop, "Why is there only you in the shop?"

Jessica who sat opposite of Amelia said with a wry smile, "Because I dismissed all the employees."

Amelia was shocked and asked, "You've fired them? Why?"

Jessica's felt nostalgia as she looked around the store. After that, she said, "I didn't only fired them, I'm also planning to sell the cafe."

Amelia could only responded with an 'Oh'. The reason Jessica did so because she wanted to raise the money as soon as possible for Sierra to have the surgery.

For a moment, both of them lost in their own thoughts and did not speak.

When Amelia was eating the cake, Jessica looked and touched the things around her. After so many years, she had developed feelings for this shop.

Amelia caught sight of her expression and an idea suddenly came to her. "Why don't you sell this cafe to me?"

Jessica's sad eyes narrowed. She looked at Amelia incredulously and asked, "What did you say?"

Amelia sat straight and said, "Sell me all the equipment, teacups, and other things in the store. Do also give me a friendship price and I will pay for everything. Is that okay?"

Jessica's voice seemed to be muffled by a piece of cotton wool and sounded a little hoarse. "Why did

you do this?"

Amelia spread her hands and said, "Well, such a good cafe, is better to keep for our own, don't you think? Actually, I'm quite interested in running a cafe, although... I'm a newbie in this field."

"I remember that you just took over your father's company. If you run another cafe... Amelia, I'm afraid you can't cope with it." Jessica stared at her and said.

"Yes, that's why I have a good idea!" Amelia said with a bright smile, "I not only want this store, I want your old staff as well! You can become my manager and your monthly salary will be deducted from the cafe's monthly profit... Is thirty percent okay? or fifty percent?"

"Amelia!" Jessica interrupted all of a sudden. "This isn't child's play! Do you know that you're trying to make a loss deal?"

Amelia smiled cheekily and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm happy that I can own a good cafe."

Jessica felt angry and said, "There's no problem if you want this cafe. I can sell it to you. You're worried that you won't be able to run it well. So you want to hire me as the cafe manager. That's fine as well. However, I won't accept the condition of paying me according to the monthly profit!"

Amelia was worried that her good intentions would hurt Jessica's self-esteem. She hurriedly said, "Okay, okay. Then I'll hire you according to the market price. Is that okay?"

Jessica thought about it for a while before she agreed. "I'll be in charge of the contract between the two parties and let you check it. What do you think?"

Amelia did not know why she felt a little uncomfortable. She thought that the relationship between Jessica and her should not be like this...

She felt that Jessica was too polite towards her.

Amelia shook her head. She forced herself to think that it was just an illusion. "Okay. We will make the terms and conditions clear. I'll listen to you."

When Jessica heard that, she smiled relievedly and said, "Thank you, Amelia. I didn't expect that you could settle Sierra's medical fee and help me to secure my job as well."

Amelia pretended to be angry and said, "Dear, you used to be so shameless. I'm really not used to how you behave now when you keep thanking me."

Jessica pulled at her lips in vain.

Another hour passed...

After making an appointment with Jessica to sign the contract, Amelia stood up and left.

After she left, Jessica closed her eyes in discomfort. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

No matter how many times Jessica hypnotized herself, it would be difficult for her to go back to normal with Amelia after Howard and Jocelyn's drama.
