Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 708

Jonathan looked at Amelia intensely and said, "President Ramsay, I have to tell you something. If it weren't for your father's kindness that he didn't want to suppress the second-class construction company like Vivo. Vivo wouldn't have become what it is today!"

Amelia was stunned for a moment. "Uncle Tucker, so my father and Vivo are not competitors?"

Jonathan shook his head and said, "Yes but no as well! Back then, Apex Construction's business was very good. All kinds of big and small deals came to us one after another. However your father told us not to monopolize the market. After all, it's not easy to for others to start business!

Kingston was a cunning person. He curried favor with your dad when Apex Construction was really successful. Your father was too kind and he gave Kingston customers and resources. Unfortunately, Kingston was ungrateful. Look at him now. He was so proud of himself after seeing Apex Construction in trouble. Think about it. Did he ever ask about your father when he was being hospitalized for so long? " Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

When Amelia heard this, she felt melancholy yet happy, "Uncle Tucker, every time I listen to your words, I will change my opinion about my father. My father that you described was not the same as I remembered."

For her, George Ramsay that she knew was a 'heartbreaker' other than the 'father' she called.

She had never even treat George as the company's chairperson. To put it bluntly, she did not care at all about how George's company was developing.

However, after she joined Apex Construction, she heard Jonathan talked more about George's conduct. The more she heard about it, the more she regretted it...

She regretted that she had turned a blind eye to George over the years. As a result, she could only hear about George's news from others.

Although Jonathan was angry, he did not forget what their plan was. "President Ramsay, let's go in."

Amelia came back to her senses and nodded.

In the conference hall.

The hall was full of closely-packed round tables.

There were six chairs placed around each round table. Red cards with names of different people written on them were pasted at the back of each chair.

Amelia and Jonathan followed the staff to a seat which was on the right side of the hall. Then they sat down one after another.

Jonathan saw the others were not at their table yet, so he used this opportunity to whisper into Amelia's ear, "Have you seen anything special?"

Amelia said, "I don't think the organizers think highly of the Apex Construction Corporation, so we are arranged to be seated in a remote area. I think the person sitting at the center is the potential candidate today!"

A complicated look appeared in Jonathan's eyes. "That's right! The world is cruel. Back then, people would never leave Apex Construction Corporation behind."

Amelia pursed her lips and smiled. "You're actually very nervous today, aren't you?"

Jonathan was stunned.

Amelia said seriously, "I find that today you like to mention how Apex Construction Corporation was in those days. I think that you're uncertain with the result too, so you often recall of the Apex Construction Corporation's good old days. Am I right?"

Jonathan's expression turned sour. Finally, he admitted, "That's right. My heart now is beating fast like it's beating on a drum! I was able to make a show of myself when I was facing Kingston.

However when I've seen the seats distributed to us by the authority, my heart sank. Look at that b*stard Kingston sitting at the middle. He's laughing at us!"

Amelia did not look at Kingston. She smiled gently and said, "Uncle Tucker, there's no need to focus on Mr. Gordon. The more you pay attention to him, the more proud he will be."

Jonathan refused to admit it. "But I'm sitting right in front of him. What can I do?"

Amelia said, "Let's do it this way. I'll swap seats with you because my seat is facing him sideway."

Jonathan was speechless for a moment before saying frankly, "Forget it. I like to sit here and stare at him. In that way, I don't have the mood to think about anything else."

Amelia shook her head in amusement and let him bear with it.

The current situation had pushed Jonathan to such an extent. It was likely that Apex Construction Corporation's crisis had reached a level that could not be ignored.

What Kaiden told her on the phone was right. Many elites in the Apex Construction Corporation had realized the company was not doing well and began to look for new job secretly. If she could not get a big deal soon, it would be a great loss whether for

her prestige or for the staffs' spirit.

Amelia still had a way to make up for the loss of funds. However, the loss of experienced staffs could not be solved overnight.

"Amelia Ramsay, you have to win in this fight!"

After Amelia gave pep talk to herself, she picked up the mineral water provided by the organizers. As she opened the bottle cap and was about to take a sip...

Suddenly, she saw a figure in front of her table that she could not even dream of!

"Ahem..."

Her eyes suddenly widened because she was shocked. The water that she had just swallowed in her throat almost spat out!

Her unusual cough suddenly attracted several nearby tables guests' attention. Some people guessed that Amelia was the Apex Construction Corporation's newly inexperienced chairperson based on Jonathan's identity. There was even a bit of disapproval in their looks.

Jonathan patted Amelia's back gently while glaring back at the crowd.

"Are you okay?" Jonathan looked at her and asked.

Amelia was too embarrassed to say anything. When she came in, she told herself repeatedly that no matter what happened, she had to be elegant.

However, because of a person and her drink made her embarrass herself!

The person who had made Amelia make a fool of herself, had already asked the assistant next to him to move the chair for him, and he sat leisurely beside Amelia.

The man put his hand on the back of Amelia's chair and his hand was quite intimate. This scene immediately shocked the bosses who saw it.

Kingston blurted out from a distance, "It's Kaiden Wright!"

The one who sat beside Kingston's table looked at him and asked with great interest, "Mr. Gordon, didn't you say that Kaiden is the smart guy you have been trying to curry favor recently? Why is he now sitting at your opponent's side?"

"There's more than that!" Another person added, "Look at Kaiden's hand. It's so close to Miss Ramsay! Are they..."

"Kaiden is known for being loathsome of woman. Not to mention the relationship between Amelia and him. If she can get his favor, it can be said that she is very capable!"

"Capable?" Zheng Yiqiang snorted unhappily. "What capability it that? It's not even worth mentioning!" "Hey, isn't your daughter very beautiful? Maybe your daughter can..."

Before he could finish, he heard Kingston replied angrily, "My daughter is not a trading object!"
