Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Was he in his right mind?

She meant it as a joke when she proposed the idea. She had never thought that he was going to take it seriously. He had again impressed her with his narcissism.

Half a minute later, Kaiden showed up in the car again gloomily.

Knowing what had happened, she pretended to turn a blind eye and asked, "Have you asked?"

Kaiden nodded feebly as if he had been defeated.

Pursing her lips, Amelia pretended as if she knew nothing. She then continued to ask, "So how was it? Did anyone know you or tell your name?"

This time, it took Kaiden a long pause before he shook his head tensely.

Ha! She knew for sure! How could he be so narcissistic?!

Amelia wished that she could laugh it out loud, yet she pretentiously comforted him, "Now you don't have to feel worry anymore. None of them know you, let alone the incident where you were carried by the security guards."

Upon returning to his seat, Kaiden scolded angrily, "Everyone in your company is blind!"

Amelia did not deny either as she said, "Alright, you're right..."

Kaiden continued, "There's no wonder that your company is getting insolvent....."

Amelia was no doubt triggered by his words. However, she had not forgotten Fred's reminder that it was crucial to have Kaiden on their side. Hence, she got no other choice but to agree with him, "Yeah, yeah, you're right."

Kaiden was not done in venting his anger. He added, "Most importantly, this has something to do with the management of this company. Hence, as the leader of this company, you have an undelegated responsibility! Don't you know that a leader is the role model that defines the quality of the employees?"

The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. She struggled to come to agreement with his point this time.

Kaiden felt so much better after venting his anger to Amelia.

All of a sudden, he remembered of the purpose he was here. He turned around and said, "Eh, do you still remember what I told you in your office the other day?"

"You told me a couple of things the other day. I'm not sure which one in specific that you're referring to now." Amelia decided to play dumb this time. After all, she did not want to lose her initiative to him.

hurriedly said, "I told you before that I would like to work with Apex Construction Corporation so that I can help with the design of the theme park at the Eastern District. You told me at that time that you were going to consider it. Have you reached any decision? There's no way that you're going to turn me down, am I right?" Amelia
