Chapter 615

Amelia watched him as he continued to stare at her in silence. Although she found him odd this way, she could not pinpoint what was wrong exactly. She glanced at her watch and saw that she was going to be too late. Amelia patted her forehead out of annoyance and turned around to leave in a hurry. Patrick did not chase after her this time, for she had just praised him the highest compliment he could ever receive.

"You'll make a good father!"

"I will," he promised.

At Apex Construction Corporation.

As Amelia pushed the office door open, she found Jonathan already waiting for her inside. Ryker was standing aside, focused in wiping the window.

She found this strange. "Assistant Ryker, can't the janitor take care of cleaning the window?"

Hearing her, Ryker stopped wiping and twisted his body to say to Amelia, "President Ramsay, you're here."

"Hmm," acknowledged Amelia softly.

Ryker continued, "President Ramsay is still new to the company, so there are some things that you may not know yet. Daniel had requested me to clean the office doors, windows, mop the floor, and throw out the garbage every day. And I've seen to it personally ever since."

"Oh..." Amelia said, "This is too hard on you. You can leave these work to the janitors after work, don't take their jobs away from them."

She thought Ryker would be relieved, but a trace of panic flashed across his face. "There's no need! Well, I mean... I'm used to doing these tasks, so there's really no excuse to rely on others. Besides, no one knows the dirty spots in the office better than me. Even the janitors can miss out on some of the spots."

Amelia gave him a thoughtful look. "Is that true?"

"Yes." Ryker guaranteed in a lighter tone, "I won't disturb President Ramsay when I'm doing cleaning. You can just treat me as if I'm not here at all."

"Alright, then." Amelia did not press on any further after Ryker's insistence.
