Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 983

Holding the pickled radish in his hand, Patrick calmly put it on the table in the space between him and Amelia. "I forgot they gave me a side dish."

Amelia could not help but laugh. "As the President of Roxxon, you only have a bowl of white porridge and pickled radish for supper. Who would believe this?"

Patrick's gaze softened when he realized that he managed to amuse her. "Well, as a president of Apex Construction Corporation, aren't you also accompanying me to eat this plain porridge and radish?" The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. If she had known that he would tease her, she would not have said anything about it to prevent herself from being included in this conversation. There were other dishes in the refrigerator, but Patrick insisted on segregating a packet of pickled radish into two fractions. He shared a portion with Amelia, then began to eat his porridge slowly. Although Amelia accompanied him for a bowl of porridge, she had other thoughts in her heart.

Time passed quietly between the two of them...

Suddenly, Patrick said, "I have never doubted that you used despicable means to win the deal of the Eastern District project. If you still aren't willing to tell me the truth because it's difficult for you to explain, I won't ask you anymore in the future on the premise that you won't deliberately say those words to make me angry."

Those words? What kind of words?

Was it when she mentioned that he cheated on her?

Amelia stopped eating. For a moment, she could not believe what Patrick said.

Patrick scrutinized her and asked slowly, "Didn't you hear me clearly? Do you need me to repeat what I just said?" Amelia put down the partly-opaque plastic spoon and looked at him seriously. "Are you serious?"

Patrick replied, "I am."

Amelia was uncertain. "Can you guarantee me that you won't ask anything related to the Eastern District project?"

"Yes, I can." Patrick gave her his word.

Amelia still could not believe that he agreed and added on, "I'm positive that although you won't come to me with these questions, you'll still go to someone else for answers."

Patrick said, "I promise that I won't ask about this matter anymore unless someone brings it up in front
