Chapter 707


    The next day.


    At Apex Construction Corporation.


    "Uncle Tucker."


    Amelia happened to meet Jonathan when she arrived at thepany''s entrance, so she greeted


    him.


    Jonathan looked to the side and saw that the person who called him was Amelia. He smiled and


    nodded, "Good morning, President Ramsay."


    While waiting for the lift, Amelia looked at Jonathan andmented, "Uncle Tucker, this is the first


    time I''m in the same elevator with you to go to work."


    Jonathan replied politely, "Yes, I always arrive at thepany earlier. President Ramsay, the


    elevator is here."


    Amelia nced at the elevator and said politely to Jonathan, "Uncle Tucker, you first."


    It was not the working hour yet so there were very few employees waiting for elevator.


    Therefore, when it was Amelia and Jonathan''s turn to take the elevator, there were only both of


    them in the elevator.


    Jonathan pressed the close button and asked in a deep voice, "President Ramsay, the auction in


    Eastern District will officially begin in two days. Have you made up your mind?"


    Amelia nodded. "I''ve already thought it through. I''ll do as you says. I''ll use The Hopper Family as a


    gimmick to get the contract first!"


    Jonathan praised, "President Amelia, since you have the courage to do this, there''s a possibility of


    yourpany surviving!"


    "I hope so."


    Amelia prayed silently in her heart.


    Time flew, Friday came in a blink of eyes.


    The auction in the Eastern District was very high-profile but Amelia and Jonathan were very low-


    key. So far, there was no one in thepany knew about their n.


    Even Ryker who was Kaleb''s spy had been kept in the dark by Amelia.


    When Amelia saw the expensivemercial vehicles appear in front of her and she heard the


    Entrepreneurs CEO''s names that were called out by Jonathan, her palm sweated unconsciously.


    Jonathan seemed to feel Amelia''s nervousness. He suddenly paused and asked with concern, "Are


    you alright?"


    She forced a tinge of boldness to appear on her beautiful face. "I''m fine!"


    Jonathan smiled. "Everyone would be nervous when theye to a ce like this for the first time.


    President Ramsay, you already performed very well. In the past, when your father brought me to a


    ce like this, I didn''t even dare to make any noise. I was afraid that I would offend any of the


    VIPs."


    "Ha!" Amelia could not help but chuckle at Jonathan''s description. At the same time, herughter


    helped her to relieve the tension in her mind.


    At this moment, Jonathan noticed a high spirited middle-aged man approaching them.


    Jonathan''s eyes darkened and he quickly said to Amelia, "President Ramsay, it''s important to be


    confident. Even Apex Construction Corporation is in big trouble right now, you have to show the


    audience you got the spirit!"


    Amelia was stunned. She did not understand Jonathan''s sudden change of attitude.


    She subconsciously followed Jonathan''s eyesight and quickly understood why he said those words


    to her.


    This was because the person who walked towards them was Vivo Construction, the Apex


    Construction Corporation''s greatestpetitor at present!


    Kingston Gordon, Vivo''s boss, Amelia had done some research before. Vivo''s boss was only a few


    years younger than her father. Both of them started their business from scratch. However, Apex


    Construction Corporation''s business was getting bad day by day while Vivo''s was getting better!


    "Hey, it''s really Jonathan. Just now you stood quite far away and I thought I saw it wrong. Why are


    getting more greedy? You even dare to take over the business in Eastern area as well? Aren''t you


    afraid that you are not capable of it?"


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Kingston was like a cactus. He would feel ufortable if he did not say something to irritate


    others.


    Jonathan was used to this. He raised his hand and made an introduction to Amelia, "Kingston, this


    is our new chairperson, Ramsay. She is our boss'' elder daughter."


    Kingston raised his eyebrows and nced at Amelia. He did not bother about her and replied, "I''ve


    heard a lot about you."


    Amelia had been ustomed to such perfunctory attitude from Kingston. Had she not seen much of


    this attitude during this period of time?


    All of these bosses treated her like she was ayman. She got this opportunity because Daniel went


    to the jail. So, they thought she was just like a loser.


    If it were not for the fact that she was Patrick''s wife, Kingston probably would not even bother to say


    ''I''ve heard a lot about you'' to Amelia.


    Amelia replied with a snile, "Nice to meet you, President Gordon."


    Kingston nced at her in surprise. "Have you ever heard of me, President Ramsay?"


    Amelia smiled and said, "I''ve heard more than that. You''ve always been my idol. I heard that you


    started your businesster than my father. However you became sessful earlier than my father.


    Now the gap between Vivo and Apex was like the distance from index finger to middle finger. It


    seems to be negligible in the eyes of the outsider."


    Jonathan acted as an interpreter, "Kingston, the gap between index finger and middle finger is


    small, but it''s an insurmountable gap. Even if you try very hard to close it, I''m afraid it''s useless!"


    Amelia heard this and she felt that her anger had been released. As a junior, she still had to be


    polite to Kingston.


    However, Jonathan was different. He could casually say what he wanted to say and fight back to


    Kingston!


    Kingston listened to Amelia and Jonathan''s two-man show. He squinted his eyes unpleasantly.


    "President Ramsay is too conceited. Now Apex could no longer be the only constructionpany in


    Northville, there are morepetitors!"


    Jonathan was like a senior general at the battlefield. When he faced his enemies, he said cal my,


    "Kingston, is our President Ramsay conceited or confident? Let''s see the truth at the auctionter!"


    Amelia had been smiling the whole time. At first nce, she really seemed to be a master from


    beyond the secr world.


    Besides that, with what Amelia said just now, Kingston found that she was somewhat different from


    what he imagined.


    He thought Amelia was an easy pick-up, but he did not expect her to use a metaphor topare


    theirpanies and imed that Vivo was only number two in the construction field.


    However, Jonathan''s words hit his core. Whichpany was the best? It would be easily


    discovered in the auctionter!


    Kingston lowered his head and looked at his watch. He could not wait to tell Amelia and Jonathan,


    "Guys, it''s almost time. The government is the most particr in timing. Don''t bete or you''ll be


    forbid from entering the event. Shall we?"


    Amelia smiled slightly and leaned over.


    "Uncle Gordon, you first."


    Kingston just came to stimte his rival. After hearing Amelia''s words, he was no longer polite. He


    walked pass Amelia and Jonathan and stepped into auction event.


    Jonathan who was stood behind him cursed, "Who does he think he is!"


    Amelia tried to cate Jonathan. "Uncle Tucker, don''t be so angry. We shouldn''t be mad at such an


    arrogant person!"


    Jonathan sighed. "President Ramsay, to be honest, I have seen so many people as arrogant as


    him.


    However, I''ve never seen someone else who can add insult to your injury in front of you!"


    It was the first time Amelia had seen Jonathan so indignant. "Uncle Tucker, I thought you have seen


    a lot of annoying people in the world and got used to it since long ago."
