Chapter 793


    With Jonathan''s approving sight, Amelia raised her hands and pped a few times. She then said


    to Kaleb "Your boldness is really a role model we should look up to! Okay then, let''s do what you


    say. We''re going to solve it officially!"


    Kaleb was being modest after being praised but in fact, he was feeling proud inside. When had he


    ever been favoured by The Ramsay Family?


    In the past, Amelia''s father recruited him into the Apex Construction Corporation because he had


    nothing to do.


    Although he was a member of the board, he had no actual power. Although no one said it out loud,


    they might regard him as a good-for-nothing in the dark.


    After when Amelia''s father got sick and was admitted, Daniel then took over the ce of the


    chairperson. He thought that he could control Daniel but he could not.


    Whilepared to his cousin, there seemed to be sinisterness within Daniel''s shrewdness and it


    was really well-hidden.


    In the end, he could only pretend to be obedient and wait for Daniel to make a mistake that would


    end his

    career.


    As a matter of fact, Daniel had indeed brought destruction upon himself. However, the person


    waiting for him was the next leader of The Ramsay Family, Amelia.


    Although Amelia had done a lot of things behind his back, she had taken his proposal without


    hesitation, hadn''t she?


    Due to being ignored and denied for a long time, Kaleb felt like he was on cloud nine when he


    received a single sentence of acknowledgement.


    But no matter how happy he was, he would never forget his ultimate goal which was to get Amelia


    expelled from the Apex Construction Corporation, and take over the whole corporation!


    Amelia would never have imagined that her agreeing to Kaleb would stir up such a storm in Kaleb''s


    heart.


    Amelia waited until Kaleb put down the empty teacup with satisfaction and leave along with his men


    before her smile turned into a sneer and cursed in her heart, "What the h*ll!"


    All these people kept oning wave by wave and all of them were with bad intentions, how could


    she still maintain her positive mindset.


    She sat down beside Jonathan and asked in a trustworthy tone, "Uncle Tucker, what do you think


    Kaleb means?"


    Jonathan was leisurely sipping his tea. When he heard Amelia''s words, he lifted his eyes and


    looked at her. "Why don''t you tell me what were you thinking first, President Ramsay?"


    Amelia knew that Jonathan was like her master who taught her everything. After all, just being


    taught with the theories was not good enough. She needed to be given the chance to practice and


    try it out herself.


    Amelia put away her joking attitude and said seriously, "I think he wants to make things worse for


    me!"


    The corners of Jonathan''s lips curled up as he blew on his tea. "Hmm? Please borate more..."


    Amelia then said, "Uncle Tucker, just think it about, the process of dealing with it officially is much


    moreplicated than dealing with it privately. We might even receive awsuit for this! With that


    being said, it is still eptable for me but, dealing with water pollution isn''t easy, we can''t just


    rece all the polluted water with a barrel of clean water. It takes a country a few decades to deal


    with it, let alone asking apany to solve it along with the officials. If we were to take up the


    project, I would need to carry the burden of being pressurized by the officers and I would still need


    to take care of the project in the east zone. Even if I''m still young, working like this would definitely


    make my hair fall off sooner orter."


    Upon hearing Amelia''sints, Jonathan looked at her with caring eyes and asked, "Since you


    know about everything, why did you agree with Kaleb''s proposal?"


    Amelia''s eyes widened. "Didn''t you shake your head and signal me not to deal with the officers from


    the Environmental Protection Bureau privately? If I can''t solve it in private, the only choice left would


    be to work with the officials."


    Jonathan then asked, "So, you just did Kaleb a favour just now?"


    Amelia touched the tip of her nose and answered, "Yeah, I think he looks really happy. I guess he


    will not causing me any trouble for the time being."


    Jonathan smiled and then changed the subject. "President Ramsay, do you know why I asked you


    to deal with it officially?"


    Of course, Amelia did not know why. "I don''t know."


    The corner of Jonathan''s mouth twitched into a smile. "Because I suspect... things aren''t as simple


    as it seems."


    Amelia''s heart skipped a beat. She was on the verge of tears. Why couldn''t these plots and traps


    just stay away from her and let her live her life peacefully?


    To tell the truth, she really hoped that she lived in a dream instead of the real world. "Uncle Tucker,


    isn''t this just a pollution issue? What''s wrong with it? Didn''t the officers of the Environmental


    Protection Bureau came to our door through the source of the pollution..."


    Jonathan looked at her in disappointment and said, "President Ramsay, you have to calm yourself


    and think thoroughly before youe to a conclusion. You can''t just believe what others say!"


    "But..." Amelia''s heart was still holding a trace of hope. "But they''re the authority..."


    "Since they''re the authority then they wouldn''t lie?" Jonathan mmed his index finger on the table


    as if he was knocking on Amelia''s head.


    Amelia was annoyed and she pulled her hair. She wanted to solve this problem with money but


    Jonathan told her that it was a fraud!


    In other words, she might not be able to solve the problem with money. In an instant, she looked


    listless.


    "Uncle Tucker, can you please tell me how did you found that there something wrong with this


    matter?"


    "What did the officers from the Environmental


    Protection Bureau said was the main cause of the pollution?" Jonathan asked.


    "Well, it''s because too many leftovers were dumped into the river."


    "Yes! But President Ramsay, have you ever thought that when Apex Construction Corporation was


    at its peak before your father was admitted, the number of employees was 30% morepared to


    the number of employees now. The canteen would need to prepare the food the same amount as


    they do back then right? Now that we have lesser employees, how can we produce that many


    leftovers?"


    Amelia looked contemtive. "What you said do make sense."


    "In the heyday of the corporation, there was no such things as excessive waste emission. President


    Ramsay, do you think now..." Jonathan wished to speak but he stopped on second thought.


    While listening to Jonathan''s spection, Amelia became so nervous that her mouth felt dry. At this


    moment, her brain started thinking and she blurted, "Is it possible that there is a blockage in the


    underground pipe leading to the river from the staff canteen... No, no, no, if there''s a blockage, all


    the waste will be stuck in the underground pipe, and there is no way that the emission would


    exceed the standards... Then..."


    Amelia kept making spections but soon she denied her own spection. An outsider would have


    thought she was either a lunatic or a fool but Jonathan was happy to hear her spection.


    Sometimes he frowned and sometimes he would smile at her as she made her spection.


    In the end, Amelia startled and said, "Someone was intentionally framing us!"


    The next second, the door was swung open and Audrey''s voice could be heard. "Tea is ready!"


    Right at this moment, Amelia was totally immersed in her own world. After listening to her analysis


    for a long time, Jonathan estimated that she would be thirsty so he waved towards Audrey and


    asked her to bring the tea to her.
