Chapter 312


    In the evening, at Land of Fragrance.


    "Have you thought about the shares?"


    Hearing Daniel''s question on the phone, Amelia responded with determination, "Well, I''ve made a


    decision."


    At that moment, the doorbell rang outside the house, and Amelia said to Daniel as she walked


    away, "Hold _ 11


    on.


    When she opened the door, the man standing outside was the postman in charge of delivering the


    daily newspaper. After epting the newspaper he handed her, Amelia whispered "thank you" and


    gently closed the door.


    "Can we talk about your ns?" Daniel said impatiently


    Ameliaid the newspaper t on the coffee table in the living room and was just about to speak


    when she was suddenly drawn to the contents of the paper!


    After a moment of silence, she panicked and said to Daniel, "The situation may have changed, I''ll


    contact you then!"


    Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    "What! You..." Daniel didn''t finish his words before the call was cut off.


    Amelia stared at the news today, feeling only confused.


    Roxxon Corporation wanted to get the Rosan


    Road cemetery?


    Impossible! Since when did Patrick be interested in that cemetery? Why didn''t she know?


    Putting down the newspaper, Amelia called Patrick in a hurry, but he didn''t pick it up!


    She was in anxiety until Granny Hopper''s words pulled back her mind, "Amelia, aren''t you going to


    the school to pick up Andrew and Ashley?"


    Amelia absent-mindedly replied, "I''ll go right away."


    Granny Hopper stared at her unstable footsteps and said worriedly, "It''s snowing, and the road is


    slippery. Be careful while driving."


    At Sofia Elementary School.


    Amelia saw the two kids walking out of the school side by side from a distance, they looked around


    nkly and searched carefully for her.


    With a smile, Amelia pressed the horn of the car to attract their attention. Seeing them rushing to


    her with full of vitality, Amelia''s mood became better.


    Andrew and Ashley looked at Amelia with the same lovely face and the same bright eyes and said


    in unison, "Auntie Amelia!"


    Amelia touched their heads and then asked strangely, "Andrew, why do you sweat all over your


    head?"


    Crimson rubbed the tip of his nose and said in embarrassment, "I had a PE ss in the afternoon.


    The teacher taught us to y football."


    Ashley said proudly, "Andrew was just elected by his ssmates to be the vanguard in gym ss!"


    "Really?" Amelia was worried about Andrew being isted and was relieved to hear Ashley say so.


    Ashley continued in a childish voice, "By the way, when we got to ss today, Andrew received so


    many presents, more than me! Auntie Amelia, why do you think that is?"


    Amelia smiled and said, "That means Andrew is popr."


    Ashley frowned and thought for a while, and then she came up with a conclusion that made Amelia


    feel funny. "Huh? Does that make him more popr after fighting with others? I also need to fight


    with my ssmate tomorrow!"


    "This..." Amelia thought for a moment and decided to persuade her euphemistically, "Ashley, Do you


    think your uncle likes kids who fight with people?"


    Ashley immediately changed her mind, "Oh no! I''d better obediently to be his little princess."


    At night, at Land of Fragrance.


    Amelia stood in front of the study, waiting nervously for the next conversation.


    Every time when Patrick was angry with her or wanted to pretend to be mysterious, he liked to stay


    in the study and wait for her toe.


    Well, as he wished, she was more eager to see him than ever before!


    Knock—


    "Come in, the door is unlocked." Patrick''s low voice, with deterrent power, made Amelia instantly


    have a sense of being inferior.


    Calm down! As long as they couldmunicate with each other properly, Patrick was not


    unreasonable.


    After encouraging herself, Amelia pushed the door open and came in.


    This was the second time she had entered this study since she stayed here for such a long time.


    She didn''t want to recall her first experience, which would only make her ufortable.


    Looking around, she saw that Patrick was leaning against the window. From her angle, she actually


    felt that he was a little depressed at this time...


    Depressed?


    Amelia thought she might have been wrong. Patrick couldn''t have been sad. She came closer and


    found him in his familiar proud form.


    Well... It turned out that she had made a mistake.


    "What can I do for you?" ncing at Amelia, Patrick raised his hand and took an elegant puff of a


    cigar.


    Even knowing that he was pretending not to know anything, Amelia had no choice but to go along


    with him.


    She spread out the newspaper that she carried with her and asked, "Is what the newspaper said


    true?"


    Scanning the contents of the newspaper, Patrick nodded. "That''s true."


    "Why?" Amelia looked at him incredulously. Why did Patrick make things more difficult in her most


    difficult time?


    Patrick smiled and said, "Nothing, it''s just that this piece ofnd suddenly aroused my interest. How


    about wepete fairly and see who will be the winner."


    "Patrick, do you have to go all out like this?" If the opponent was him, she would have no chance to


    win at all!


    Patrick said in a calm voice, "I don''t want to target you. I just want that piece ofnd."


    Amelia narrowed her eyes and said, "Thatnd is not good. Why did you buy it?"


    "I can do anything, such as building an employee dormitory, or opening a Roxxon department


    store..."


    With Amelia''s increasingly heavy heart, Patrick continues to hit her: "I might be able to ask a priest


    to help me overtake the ghosts of thatnd"


    Hearing that he was determined to get it, Amelia was furious and said, "You still say that you are not


    against me! Before that, you have never heard of this cemetery, have you?"


    Patrick raised his eyebrows and looked down at her red cheeks. But that was not enough. He


    wanted to see more of her reaction, "I''m sorry I haven''t heard of that cemetery before. But thanks to


    your exboyfriend''s reminding, I didn''t miss it."


    "You!" Amelia''s whole body froze, and after a while, she said, "Since my mother... is buried here,


    can you give me thatnd?"


    Patrick snorted, "You''re just now remembering that she''s also my rtive? Who was it that swore a


    few hours ago that it was her own business?"


    Amelia blurted out, "I didn''t know you were so shameless at that time!"


    Patrick felt sarcastic, but his face was cold. "What did you say about me?"


    "I was wrong!" Amelia corrected herself, "Since you are kind, can you not be mad with me?"


    Patrick saw that she was very nervous, so he asked, "Do you still want to sell your shares in Apex


    Construction Corporation?"
