Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1258

Was he preying on the weak? It was obviously Patrick who beat Mr. Quade's head and caused his injury. But, in the end, he wanted to put the blame on her!

What should she do in the face of Mr. Quade's sudden accusation?

After the call ended, Amelia began to ponder. She did not even have the mood to review the advertising idea in her mailbox.

There were only three days left until the court trial. In addition to the lawyers from both sides, both the plaintiff and the defendant had to show the relevant witness and material evidence in court.

In terms of witnesses, Mr. Quade had two managers and one CFO with him. The three of them would definitely make false evidence for their boss.

As for the witnesses on Amelia's side, there were only Jonathan, Audrey, and her indecisive ex-husband.

When it came to material evidence, Mr. Quade had already decided to make a fuss out of his head injury, while Amelia...

As the thought popped up on Amelia's mind, she suddenly bent down and rolled up her trousers on both sides. Unfortunately, she could not find any ligature marks left by the belt.

It had become troublesome. Due to the sudden appearance of Kayla's family and Eve the previous night, she took nothing with her when she left the room. She supposed that the belt had been disposed by the hotel waiter.

Uhm...

Amelia fretfully tapped her head gently with her index finger. She was not completely helpless after all. If she could convince Patrick to testify for her, she could very likely exclude herself unscathed from the case.

However, it was precisely Mr. Quade's trap!

At the same time, at Mr. Quade's place.

In the living room lavishly decorated in gold, the four person who had attempted to rape Amelia the previous night were gathered together.

After careful inspection of Mr.

Quade's bandaged forehead for a moment, a manager asked, "Boss, are we really going to sue Amelia?"

Mr. Quade said in a bad mood, "She had been sued, what's the point of you asking it now? Have you regretted standing on my side?"

After seeing Mr. Quade's fierce look, the manager quickly responded, "Boss, that's not what I meant!"

The CFO glanced at the manager and said fawningly, "Then what did you mean? Our boss had been injured so badly, can you bear to see him like this? Don't forget, if it weren't for our boss, how could each of us here make it to our current position?"

The manager no longer hid his words. "Listen to me, I don't mean to betray you guys. But, Amelia's identity and background are not ordinary. After all, she is Patrick's ex-wife, isn't she?"

Secondly, just as what you've said, Patrick is a man who cared about his dignity. Would he speak out the truth that I've almost raped his ex-wife in public?

To say the least, if he really said as such, he would not only embarrass himself, but his family would be at shame as well.

And if the matter had been spread, Patrick and Amelia will be completely inseparable for the rest of their lives.

The Hopper Family has been a powerful and prestigious family starting from the generation of Patrick's grandfather. If he gets to know that his grandson still has something with his ex-wife, do you think... that Patrick will have a good time?"

The CFO immediately clapped his hands and praised him absurdly. "Mr. Quade's has indeed interpreted the matter very thoroughly! No matter how arrogant Patrick is, he dares not to confront his family elders, right? If he's smart enough, he would definitely keep himself away from trouble!"

"Also..." Mr. Quade smiled insidiously. "It doesn't matter if Patrick really happened to testify at the court, because he had indeed hurt my head. He has to be punished regardless of his status. Patrick would be the one to apologize and compensate to me!"

The manager was spoiling the mood again, "What if Patrick doesn't admit to it?"

Mr. Quade scoffed. "I've already contacted the hotel owner this morning and asked them to edit the surveillance video. The scenes where Patrick hit others and smashed my head with a wine bottle were kept while the rest has been destroyed. What can they do to me when I have both witness and material evidence in hand!"

The manager asked again after some thoughts, "What if Patrick and Amelia look for you to deal with this matter in private?"
