Chapter 138
"That''s not what I mean." The smile on Amelia''s face became stiff. Didn''t she express it clearly or
Patrick deliberately misunderstood her good intentions?
"Enough!" Patrick looked at the bridal bouquet and said impatiently, "Give it to me."
Amelia held the bridal bouquet, and said with fear in her water eyes, "What... do you want to do?"
Patrick coaxed her hypocritically, "Give it to me, and I''ll buy you a better one."
While Amelia was hesitating whether she should believe him or not, Patrick had already reached
out his hands and took the bridal bouquet away.
Patrick sneered and ruined the bridal bouquet in front of Amelia. When the petals fell to the ground,
his uneasy heart finally calmed down.
Amelia wanted to get married to another man again? "Don''t even think about it!"
As long as he didn''t mention the divorce, she could only be his wife for the rest of her life.
In Northville.
Sitting in a private car sent by the Hopper Family, Amelia looked at the streets outside and had a
complicated feeling.
The trip of two days and one night was particrly long for them. Thinking of the what Granny
Hopper said to her before she left, Amelia heaved a sigh gloomily.
"Amelia, give birth to a baby for Patrick as soon as possible. This is I and your grandpa''s long-
cherished wish."
Granny Hopper''s words made Amelia''s heart sink. She really couldn''t tell Granny Hopper the truth
that the one Patrick loved was his teacher.
When she was lost in thought, she saw arge wilderness outside the window. It was the tourist
area bid by Daniel.
Usually, there were a lot of tourists in the tourist area. But that day, it was cordoned off, and there
were some workers who were evacuating the surrounding visitors.
Looking at those excavators which were used to transport mud, Amelia had a ridiculous guess. Did
Daniel make the government approve the project by himself?
Soon, the car stopped at the gate of Roxxon Corporation. When Amelia was about to get off the car,
Patrick, who had been resting all the way with his eyes closed, suddenly said, "You have a day off
today. I''ll ask the driver to send you home."
"Why?" Amelia asked in confusion.
Patrick opened his eyes and said ndly, "Cynthia has been dismissed by my mother. No one
cleaned our house in the past two days. You can have a house cleaning when you go back."
Sh*t! Did Patrick regard her as a servant?
Amelia was about toin, but after thinking for a while, she asked curiously, "Hey, why did
mom dismiss Cynthia? Isn''t her family very poor?"
After Patrick looked at her for a few seconds then asked, "Shouldn''t you be the happiest one since
she was fired? But now you look like as if you are sympathetic to her."
He still remembered what Amelia said after making an appointment with Cynthia alone.
Every woman would treat her rival in love unfriendly. But Amelia seemed to be somewhat
hypocritical when she asked about Cynthia''s family situation.
Looking at Patrick''s mocking eyes, Amelia said honestly, "You are wrong. I have no sympathy for
her at all. After she sent the video to mom to nder me, I really hoped that she could be driven out
of Roxxon. Unfortunately, I''m not in charge of Roxxon and you don''t want to help me. But I still hate
her so much."
Patrick said in a depressed tone, "Who told you that I didn''t help you?"
Amelia said with her face was full of suspicion, "Did you?"
At least, Cynthia was still in Roxxon, and she even dared provoke her face to face.
Cynthia always sensed that she was inferior. If it weren''t for the the support from a powerful person,
she wouldn''t dare offend Amelia.
Unless... someone supported Cynthia to fight against Amelia. As for this person, apart from Patrick,
Amelia couldn''t think of a second one.

Patrick, who was sitting in the office, seemed to be listening to the secretary''s report, but he was
lost in thought.
In Amelia''s heart, he was a person who went back on his word.
Seeing that Patrick was absent- minded, the secretary said slowly, "... The inte tform has
been built, and the VIP cards have been sent to all the rich and famous people in Northville.
However, as for what to sell in the tform, it''s up to you."
Patrick was absent-minded, "What?"
The secretary patiently repeated her words again and handed him the document she had sorted
out, "These products are all rmended by the board of directors, and they are all high-end."
Patrick took over the document and nced through it briefly. Then he said, "Add one more
product, the aquatic product from Chinese businessmen in Latvia."
The secretary said in a dilemma, "But we haven''t investigated their fish farms yet."
Patrick said casually, "Let''s talk about it in due course. Tell me the second thing first."
The secretary felt speechless in her heart. Was Mr. Hopper looking for an excuse to ck off since
he couldn''t think of a suitable candidate?
"The second thing is that the date for the physical examination of the staff ising soon. It will
probably take a week for whole staff toplete the physical examination. The National Day will be
in a week, so Roxxon may have half a month off. Mr. Hopper, do you need to adjust work of every
department?"
Patrick said ndly, "No, it''s good to have a rest, I don''t want them to be tired of work all year
round."
The secretary was moved and continued, "Mr. Hopper, before you took over Roxxon, the top
managers would organize a foreign travel for whole staff every year, saying that this would help
ease our pressure. How about organizing a travel this year?"
Patrick was not very interested in group travel, but the secretary''s words made sense, so he said,
"Decide the location, date and budget yourselves, then tell me the result."
As soon as Amelia returned to the Land of Fragrance, she received a call from Milton. On the
phone, he asked her to go to a bookstore to help him.
Hearing this, sheughed out loud. Milton''s favorite thing when he was young was to tear down the
textbook to fold paper ne. Amelia thought that Milton would never go to a bookstore in his life.
"Amelia! Hurry up!" Milton was quite anxious. He hoped that Amelia got there immediately.
"Got it. Bye." Amelia turned around and nced at the furniture. She nned to have a house
cleaning after she came back from the book store.
In the bookstore.
When Amelia arrived, before she could say hello to Milton, Milton covered her mouth and dragged
her to a corner.
"Shh! Listen to me first." Milton said anxiously.
Amelia''s mouth waspletely covered, and she could only blink to show that she got it.
Milton reached out a finger to a bookshelf cautiously and then winked at Amelia, "Do you see the
girl in a white dress over there?"
Amelia looked over there. She could only see the girl''s side face. The girl looked pretty with long
hair. Could it be that Milton had fallen in love with her?
Milton seemed to know what Amelia was thinking. He looked up and said helplessly, "She is my
blind date."
