Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 874

Sawyer raised his eyebrows a little as he said, "Your metaphor is quite interesting."

This comment indeed boosted her confidence!

Amelia continued to convince, "Mr. Quartley, Apex Construction Corporation had been established for more than ten years. It is not entirely impossible for it to achieve its peak success again. All we need is investment from someone like you!"

Sawyer stared at her as he said, "Ms. Amelia, don't you think you should prove to me your sincerity? After all, you're the one that needs my money now."

Amelia replied earnestly, "That's why I'm here to show you how sincere I am."

Out of the blue, Sawyer asked, "Ms. Amelia, may I ask you something? Why don't you persuade your husband to invest in your company? Can I understand this as the finance of The Hopper Family is insufficient to support your grand plan?"

Amelia pretended to be melancholic as she explained, "It's not that every person would be able to understand our plans. So of course I have to look for someone brilliant like you, am I right?"

It was impossible for her to tell the truth to a man whom she had just met. After all, to a large extent she had to digest all her worries and fear on her own.

"Ms. Amelia, if I have not mistaken, you just said that I was not sharp in making investment decision and that I always entrusted the wrong people." Sawyer's words might sound polite, but in fact every sentence from him was meant to test her. It was hard to ignore the sarcasm in his speech.

Amelia had finally understood his countered meaning. To put it bluntly, Sawyer looked down at her as well as her company. For numerous times, he had impliedly delivered his message that she should not convince him into investing Apex Construction Corporation. Most probably he thought that she did not deserve his attention.

However, on second thought, Sawyer had every reason to look down at her. After all, she was the one who started the mess in the meeting room.

The moment when she decided to do this, she should have already prepared herself for the worst. She was supposed to feel fortunate for herself since Sawyer had not chosen to file a lawsuit against her for defamation. Hence, she had no right to blame him if he looked down at Apex Construction Corporation.

But she was not willing to give up. She persisted,

"Mr. Quartley, I'm determined to get you into investing our company. If you turn me down today, I'm afraid that I'm going to continue visiting you until I manage to convince you."
