Chapter 247

Amelia sneakily tugged at Patrick's jacket to change the subject, "Mr. Hopper, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see you," Patrick said bluntly.

Amelia was stunned. "What do you want to see me about?"

"Let's have dinner together," Patrick said. He nimbly hooked a small chair over with his feet and sat next to Amelia.

By this time, the secretary had flattered Patrick with a box lunch, but he gave her a meaningful glance that made the secretary nervous.

Patrick acted as he went back home, not at all polite, and Amelia couldn't help but ask, "How much did you really pay the crew?"

Patrick chuckled softly and lowered his voice to ask, "When did you become so interested in finance?"

Amelia, not wanting to be misunderstood by him, shrugged her shoulders and said, "No,just asking."

Remaining aware of Shawn looking at them from time to time, Patrick smirked and moved closer to Amelia, his hand with the chopsticks rubbing against the back of Amelia's hand frequently, clearly taking advantage of her.

Shawn was watching the scene clearly from the sidelines, he was angry and clearly displeased with Patrick's despicable behavior, and he thought Amelia was being workplace harassed by her boss but was too afraid to stop it.

"Patrick..." Amelia suddenly called his name.

Shawn was surprised and thought to himself that Amelia couldn't help but vocalize Patrick, and he planned to join her in bashing Patrick for being an unscrupulous boss!
