Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 589

Amelia put her hands together on the desk and looked at Ryker with composure. "Well, you'd better think long and hard about it. You won't want to miss out on anything."

Knock, knock, knock.

Hearing the door, Amelia said to Ryker, whose mind wandered to somewhere far away. "Assistant Ryker, open the door."

Ryker was pulled back from his trance and forced a smile. "Okay."

He opened the door. The person behind it was well within Amelia's expectation.

She straightened up from the chair and politely greeted him, "Uncle Tucker."

Jonathan nodded slightly in return and threw a sidelong glance at Ryker. The moment their eyes crossed, Ryker lowered his head in reluctance.

At this, Amelia's mind flashed with a thought. Ryker was obviously not pleased by Jonathan, but there was not an explicit reason for an assistant to be upset with one of the directors from the board. She landed on the conclusion that someone behind Ryker must have a conflict of interest with

Jonathan!

Judging the power from both sides, the influence from Ryker's side should be a tad stronger than Jonathan's. Otherwise, Ryker, who was at the bottom of the hierarchy, would not have had the ego to show Jonathan his attitude and Jonathan would not have to tolerate him either.

The leader of Ryker's group had to be either Daniel or Kaleb. But what Daniel had was not as charming as it seemed since he had to rely on the support from Kaleb and the rest during his time at Apex Construction Corporation. So what gave Ryker the confidence to look daggers at Jonathan?

As she went through her train of thought, Amelia was able to decide without qualms that Kaleb and his gang was her archenemy at Apex Construction Corporation.

They would not do anything to Amelia for the time being as they needed an acting chair to be the scapegoat for the failure of this project. Amelia was only afraid that they would plot for her fall from grace behind her back after the matter was settled!
