Patrick put down the newspaper on the bedside table and raised his eyes, looking obscurely at her when he heard what she said.
After making sure that she was standing in front of him safe and sound, Patrick lifted the quilt and lay on the bed with his eyes closed, falling asleep.
Amelia looked at him inexplicably. "What does this mean? Was he so sleepy that as soon as I came back, he wanted to sleep? Am I his sleeping pill?
Or, in fact, he was hard-mouthed? He was obviously sleepy, but he had to wait until I came back then only he could fall asleep?" Amelia was confused.
Compared with the former reason, Amelia emotionally thought it would be the latter.
Knowing that he could not fall asleep so fast, she took the opportunity to ask, "Have you had dinner?"
Patrick did not respond to her.
Amelia continued to ask, "What about the shower? Did the handsome guy help you to shower?"
Patrick still refused to answer her.
Amelia admitted that Patrick had done all these things. After stretching, she announced, "Then I
should also sleep. It has been a tiring day."
The next day.
When Amelia woke up, she found herself sleeping on the hospital bed with a quilt on her body.
After a moment of trance, she quickly got up from the bed and shouted at the bathroom, "Patrick, are you in there?"
No response?
Amelia threw back the quilt. She put on her shoes and went to the bathroom with a frown.
The bathroom door was not closed, and she could see it with a glance.
It was empty!
Amelia scratched her head in bewilderment, wondering that Patrick was really not here?
She was worried and rushed into the doctor's office before she washed her face.
The doctor happened to be on duty last night, and Amelia found him with ease.
"Ms. Ramsay, what can I do for you?" the doctor asked.
"My husband is missing... Do you know where he is?"
"What?" The doctor thought, "Is it appropriate for you to ask me about this?"
"When I woke up, I found that he was missing..." Seeing the doctor in a daze, Amelia bit her lower lips and said decisively, "Forget it, I should ask the nurse on duty!"
Down the corridor was the nurse on duty's office, and Amelia immediately found the right person to ask.
The nurse had an impression of Patrick. "Yes, 40 minutes ago, a gentleman in a suit passed by us and then went downstairs by elevator."
Amelia was almost awake at this time. She turned around and returned to the ward where Patrick had stayed before. She found his neckband was in the drawer of the bedside table, and the car key she put in the drawer last night was missing.
That is to say, Patrick may have recovered and driven his car to work?
If that was the case, she would feel at ease instead.
Walking into the bathroom, she washed her face and rinsed her mouth. Amelia took her bag, canceled the ward, and took a taxi to the Apex Construction Corporation.
At Roxxon Corporation.
In the CEO's office.
The secretary stood in front of the desk and asked the man sitting on the executive chair not long ago, "Mr. Hopper, you're back to work?"
Patrick turned his head secretly to make sure that there was no problem with his neck, then only he raised his head and asked the secretary, "What are these things on my table?"
The secretary glanced at the table and replied, "Oh, some documents waiting to be signed, as well as the newspaper that just arrived today and..."
"I mean, these!" Patrick suddenly interrupted the secretary and pointed to the bottles and cans next to the documents.
After seeing that, the secretary said hesitantly, "Everyone knows that Mr. Hopper was ill, so they asked me to give the medicine to you."
He unconsciously twisted his neck before answering, "It's fine now."
Amelia had asked what she wanted to ask, so she said. "Anything else?"
Patrick did not know what was wrong with himself. He said, "Nothing."
"Well, that's it then?"
"Alright." Forget it. Since she cared so much about him, he would let her go first.
At Apex Construction Corporation.
"Tsk, tsk, still whispering with your husband while at work. Isn't you practicing jobbery as a boss?"
Amelia put away her mobile phone. She looked up at the man sitting opposite her and said, "Kaiden, you're right. The company is mine. I can contact whoever I want, whenever I want, and however I
want."
Kaiden's eyes widened, and he changed the topic angrily. "I just went to the office you prepared for me. It's not bad. But Benji, he's been going against me!"
Amelia was helpless. "Benji used to be Daniel's assistant. Rather than saying that he's going against you, it's better to say that he's not convinced by me."
Kaiden was suspicious. "Really? Why do I feel that he looks down on me?"
Amelia shook her head. "When you came yesterday, Benji's colleagues must have told him about your great achievements. If he looks down on you, he'll be looking down on himself. Because it is hard for him to reach your current height in his entire life."
Kaiden snapped his fingers. "Well said! Well said!"
"Alright, let's not talk about him for now." Amelia did not want to talk about Daniel. So she changed the topic and said, "I need you to join us on the field trip today so that we can complete the design for the next blueprint."
Kaiden was very excited. "Fine, then let's head out now!"
Amelia said, "Okay, then I'll call the design department's architects to gather downstairs right now..."
Kaiden interrupted, "Don't call them. Just the two of us would be enough."
