Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1548

Before Kaleb could finish speaking, one of his mistresses cried in his arms, "What did I do wrong that you have to treat me like this?"

One of the other mistresses was even more vicious. She took off his clothes and said she would let him have the time of his life, even kneeling to beg him not to abandon her.

Kaleb was engrossed by these two alluring women!

Honestly speaking, he did not want to part with them. Compared with Yancie, they were both young and agile, and he had the youthful drive he used to get whenever he was with them. It would be a lie to say that he was willing to part with them.

But, there was no other way. He was in the need of money. Furthermore, he could no longer let Yancie have any leverage on him. If he did not cut off the relationship, he would surely get into trouble, so he had to severe all the possibilities of his future being ruined.

Finally, he chased the two women away, and the two houses were successfully put on the list for sale. Kaleb was exhausted from shuttling back and forth between two places. To add on, the neutral party was making some trouble, saying that they wanted to give the card back to him.

"Why is that?" Kaleb asked in shock.

They informed him that since the news about him bribing the neutral party was spread, the company's attitude changed towards the neutral party, especially those who had received Kaleb's money. No matter where they went, someone would be talking about them behind their backs. Hence, some of them could not bear it, wanting to give the card back to Kaleb and go back on the promises they made.

Kaleb gritted his teeth in anger upon the revelation, cursing out Jonathan's ancestors in his heart.

And this was only the beginning. Yasir was worse, who asked Kaleb for more benefits for the same reason. Otherwise, Yasir said he could not guarantee he would be present for the next board meeting.

Did that even make sense?

Left with no choice, Kaleb had to smile and praised his opponent for his methods while suffering the aftermath.

It was all Jonathan Tucker's fault!

Kaleb smashed his fist on the table, and anger went ablaze in his eyes. He swore that once he became the acting director, he would make sure Jonathan end up like Amelia!

Several days had passed, Amelia was living a good life in Japan while Kaleb struggled in great misery.

Fortunately, there was finally good news from one of the houses listed on sale. Although the price was a little lower than he expected, Kaleb had no better choice as he was caught in an impasse. He said to the intermediary, "No problem, just transfer me the money." Then, he hung up the phone.

In just a span of a few short days, Kaleb looked as if he had aged for years. Brittany was secretly happy at his condition, but she said with concern, "Uncle Kaleb, you seem to be very busy recently. I haven't seen you going home these past few days."

Kaleb flashed a fake smile and replied, "I had to work on the business these past few days, so I stayed out every day. I'll be able to go home after settling the matters."

Brittany sighed with emotion, "It's so tiring being a director."

"Yeah," Kaleb responded shamelessly. "That's how it is. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility."

"I think it's more like the more lovers you have, the more troubles there will be, isn't that right?" Brittany mocked in her heart.

"By the way, did Yancie show up when I'm away?" Kaleb asked in a casual tone.

"No."

"Then... what did she tell you when I wasn't home that day?" Kaleb continued to prod.

"She didn't say anything. When I opened the door, she asked who I was. I said I was your niece, then I asked her who she was. She said she was your friend and had come to discuss some personal affairs with you. We then sat in the living room and waited for you while watching the TV. We talked about the plot occasionally, but that was it."

Kaleb felt that something was amiss after listening to Brittany. However, he could not tell what it was. In the end, he could only defame Yancie, "That woman is up to no good. The next time you meet her, remember to stay away from her."

"Eh? But, she said she's your friend?" Brittany expressed in surprise.

"Even if she used to be, she's no longer my friend!"

Kaleb said with a wooden expression.

"Okay." Brittany then answered obediently, "I'll pretend that I don't see her if I meet her in the future."

"That's not enough. You have to avoid her so that she won't take advantage of you!" Kaleb emphasized.

Brittany pointed at herself in bewilderment. "What's there about me for her to take advantage of?"

"Think about it. She knows you're my most beloved niece, so, what if she uses you to threaten me? It doesn't matter if something happens to me, but if you're implicated, I'll... definitely..." Kaleb put on a sad expression, looking as if he was choking on his words.

Brittany replied, seeming moved, "Uncle Kaleb, don't worry! I'll protect myself and not give Yancie any chance to take advantage of me!"

"Good... that's my good niece!" Kaleb said with gratification.

Brittany's expression showed that she was touched, but she was sneering in deep down. She knew that Kaleb had asked her to stay away from Yancie only to prevent Yancie from exposing his unfavourable deeds and traits to her.

However, it was too late. Prior to this, Brittany had already reached an agreement with Yancie!

If Kaleb found out that the 4 million USD he scrimped and saved to buy the evidence were only worth 400,000 USD, what kind of expression would he have?

Japan, at Kaito's farm.

"Wait." Patrick pulled her back suddenly and gave her a deep morning kiss.

"What are you doing? Ashley's still here!" Amelia's voice was soft, and it sounded more alluring than like a refusal to Patrick.

Patrick locked her in his arms tightly and replied with affection, "You don't have to worry about being a bad influence on her. She's already rotten inside."

"Uncle Patrick, I can hear you badmouthing me." Ashley reminded him.

"Okay, let go of me." Amelia feared that Patrick would kiss her again.

Patrick released her and tidied her hair that was stuck on her cheek. While she was washing her face and brushing her teeth, he turned back and said to Ashley, "Don't tire out your aunt. Do you hear me?"

"Yes, sir!" Ashley stamped her feet and saluted.

"Come back after feeding those animals," Patrick added.

"Yes, sir!" Ashley wanted to stamp her feet again, but she gave up because her feet were still numb from the first salute.

When Amelia and Ashley found Ash No.1', Amelia realized that it was a mother goat. It was staying in a corner, licking the newborn little goat.

Ashley raised her hand and pointed at them excitedly. "Aunt Amelia, that is Ash No.1' and its child!"

"Yes, I see them," Amelia played along.

"Aunt Amelia, let's go and feed them!" Ashley exclaimed excitedly.

"A newborn goat should just drink the mother's milk, right?"

"I know. I meant we should feed Ash No.1', the mother goat! So that it can have the strength to take care of its child." While saying this, Ashley pulled Amelia's hand. "I know there's forage in the warehouse. Come with me to get it."

Amelia patted Ashley's head and said, "Okay, okay. There's no need to rush. The animals are held in captivity, so they can't go far."

When the two came out of the warehouse, they were each holding a basket that carried forages and various fodders, waiting to be fed to Ash No. 1,2, 3, 5, and so on.

The fence was not too tall, so Amelia stepped into the sheep pen. She turned around and carried Ashley in, walking toward Ash No.1'.

"Baa..." The goats might have smelled the forage because the herd in the pen rushed over to them.
