Chapter 55
Chapter 55
It took Amelia quite a while to realise what was going on. She appreciated Jessica's trick, "Well done!"
Jessica said proudly, "Of course! These tricks were the leftover when I was young. Learn from me!"
When Amelia and Jessica looked at each other and smiled, a subtle glance swept over them...
In the evening, at home.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Amelia stopped trimming the beans, walking to the door and sure enough, Patrick came back.
Perhaps it was Jessica's trick in the afternoon that made Amelia feel at ease. When she began speaking, she was no longer as angry as before, "You're done with Cynthia?"
Patrick said with a faint smile, "Everything is in your control, isn't it?"
It seemed he had known everything. Amelia asked naturally, "I don't know what you mean."
Patrick sneered and said, "You had the trick played on Cynthia in the coffee bar, right?"
Amelia thought it was Jessica who did it without telling her, so it shouldn't be her fault, so she said, "If I say no, would you believe me?"
"It's hard to believe." Patrick came to Amelia, smiled and said, "Now Mrs. Hopper can suppress the potential rival in love by tricks. Should I be happy?"
Amelia's stubbornness was stimulated by her pride and she said, "I haven't done anything to Cynthia, because you are not worthy of my effort."
After saying this, she felt released. She had no reason to bear with Patrick ridiculing her at all?
"Amelia!" Patrick suddenly pinched her chin, with anger of being offended, "How dare you talk to me like this!"
"What?! Can't you stand me telling the truth?" Amelia's eyebrows curved into a charming smile and she said, "Then turn to your soft-voice Cynthia!"
Patrick was even more furious, bent over and kissed this little mouth which was so annoying that he lost temper. These unpleasant words were really annoying!
Amelia struggled, beating, scratching, but Patrick ignored all. He put his arms around her back and pressed her against him. It was so strong that he felt like he was going to take her into his body.
Amelia bit him and he didn't hesitate to bit her with his sharp teeth. After a while, the fight turned white-hot.
It was not until the last second that Patrick let go of her. She painfully raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth and cursed in a low voice, "You hooligan! Intruders!"
Patrick reached out and grabbed her hand wiping the blood, which was soft and white, and there was a trace of red scratch on the back side, looking sexy.
He licked the back side of her hand with the tip of his tongue, making Amelia tremble. Patrick looked up at her, and said with a voice full of desire, "If I am
really a rogue robber, you will be my beloved wife!"
On Monday, at Roxxon.
Arriving at the office, Amelia heard Doris's complaining about her heavy workload.
As Valentine's Day was coming, the whole sales department had been committed to the promotion at department store, except Amelia!
She patted Doris's shoulder and comforted her, "My dear, let me follow it up. Just take a rest."
Doris's face just showed a hint of excitement, but soon it disappeared and she said, "You'd better not, my dear. Ms. Lily has told us not to bother you with work during this period. If she knew this, I'll definitely be blamed."
Amelia smiled slyly and said, "Then we do it secretly."
At the department store.
During Valentine's shopping festival, many brands were on promotion. Doris was responsible for the snack area, where all kinds of products were crowded on the shelves, looking not decent at all. Amelia called the shop assistant and asked, "Why is it so messy here?"
The shop assistant was even more anxious than Amelia, saying, "Madam Amelia, you're here just in time. Can you report our status to the management level and require some more staff for us? Recently, there is a large amount of stock in the warehouse. We are too busy organizing the old products while the new ones are brought in. All the brands want to participate in the shopping festival of our store and some of them even want to display their products on the walkway!"
Amelia nodded and said, "Alright. You've been working so hard these days. Thank you."
After a pause, she predicted the increasing customer flow and added, "The walkway must be clean and spacious to prevent a stampede." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"Yes, yes, yes." The shop assistant quickly agreed, "I'll ask others to keep here in good order."
Turning around, Amelia called Patrick's internal line and reported insufficient manpower.
Patrick was ready for this report and said, "We will arrange the logistics department to help. Don't worry."
★
Saint Valentine's Day was here. With a badge, Amelia threw herself into the crowded department store.
When passing by a food shelf, the sales clerk grabbed her hand as if she had seen a savior. "Madam Amelia! Wait!"
"What happened?" Amelia asked.
"This child was squatting instant noodles here. I didn't notice until he had crushed there several bags. Then how can we sell these?" The sales clerk said, pointing at the boy with a sad face.
Amelia looked at the little boy who refused to stand up. He looked delicate with long and upturned eyelashes, which even made her jealous.
Amelia bent down and greeted him gently, "Hi my dear, can you tell Auntie
what's your name?" She was ready to broadcast.
The little boy was speechless.
Pulling Amelia's shirt, the sales clerk said, "It's useless. I've asked all these questions, but he ignored me. Do you think... Is there a problem here?" As she said this, her fingers circled around her heade.
"No." Amelia subconsciously denied it since this little boy was thin and tender, and he was dressed in a famous brand. It was obvious that he was not from an ordinary family.
If there was really something wrong with his brain, his parents would definitely take care of him at home, instead of taking him out and carelessly losing sight of him.
Thinking for a while, Amelia took out the crushed instant noodles from his hand. In his unfriendly eyes, her smile did not change and said, "My dear, let's go and look for your parents first. When we find them, you can crush whatever you can, okay?"
The little boy lowered his head and seemed to be thinking. Finally, he raised his index finger and pointed to a direction.
To the sales assistant's surprise, Amelia really gave a new bag of instant noodles to the little boy and said tenderly, "Can you take me to your parents?"
