Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 24

After talking to the phone, Doris immediately reported to her boss, "Amelia, a piece of bad news -Mr. Miller is departing tomorrow morning." "... Uh, any good news?"

"He promised to meet you at 7:30 tonight at room 101, Venice Hotel."

The lady boss was in deep thought - In other words, if the negotiation failed, we would lose such a cash cow?

"Doris, are you available then? We go together?"

With the assistant, Amelia might not be stuck.

Doris said pitifully, "Boss, I have an urgent blind date who asked me out several times... My parents are worried about my marriage and requested me to attend the meeting tonight... I'm sorry, boss."

Marriage was a big deal and Amelia was definitely sensible, so she did not force Doris to go with her. Instead, the lady boss wished her best, "Alright, good luck! If your knot is tied with him, I'll give you a big red packet as gift!"

Doris replied with an intention to reject, "What a joke! It's too early to promise this, boss!"
