Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1571

"Why are you spitting at me?" Amelia simply wiped her face.

Kaiden thought that she would come up with some brilliant idea, yet she was just teasing him. So of course he would spit at her.

"Well, since you've already vented your anger, should you go back?" Amelia said.

Kaiden's angry face was slightly stunned, and he got into deep thoughts. "Did you deliberately make me angry?"

"Nah, I just want to tease you because you look so bitter. You're still young and pretty. Don't you think it's a waste to pull a long face all day long?" Amelia said seriously.

"Get lost!" Kaiden was still moved at first. But why did she claim him to be 'pretty'? Was she mocking him as a gay?

Amelia gave him a sidelong glance as if to say, "You are the one who should get lost!"

After Kaiden choked, he slowly stood up from the ground. He looked at her and said, "I have finished saying everything I know. If you intend to go back to the company, I will continue to follow you. But if you don't, then I will resign, that's it."

In the end, he added, "If you need my help in the future, feel free to tell me. All right, I'm leaving."

At this moment, Amelia thought of something so she straightened up and shouted, "Kaiden, wait a minute."

Kaiden immediately stopped. "What's the matter?"

Amelia bit her lower lip and then made up her mind to say, "Can I ask you for a favor?"

Kaiden wished that she could ask more so he could get closer with her. "Just say it!"

"Can you sell the blueprint of the Easthern District project to me after leaving the company?" Worried that he would not agree, Amelia added immediately, "You can set any price and I absolutely won't bargain."

"Why would you want it?" Kaiden looked at her with suspicion. "Could you plan to launch it on your own?"

Amelia laughed and said, "You've overthought things. The government only works with the Apex Construction Corporation unilaterally. Even if I take your design and present it to the government, they won't buy it from me. Besides, I'm not capable to work alone."

"Since you know the cooperation between the government and the Apex Construction Corporation, why do you still want to own the blueprints alone? Are you trying to drag down the development of Apex?"

It was out of Kaiden's expectation that the biggest enemy of the Apex Construction Corporation was no other than Amelia.

"I can't tell you exactly my plan for the time being. But, I can guarantee that I will never do anything against conscience and morality."

Amelia knew well on how to make good use of herself. At the moment, she softened her attack and said to Kaiden in a pleading tone, "Kay, I rarely ask you for anything. But, please help me regarding this matter, okay?"

"No problem, I'll give it to you for free!" When Kaiden heard her call him by his nickname, he almost melted. He could definitely not say no to her.

Amelia did not ignore the word 'free'. "You must still charge me. It's your hard work after all."

Kaiden pulled a long face and said, "If you really want it, you should stop mentioning about money. How could my artwork be tarnished by such vulgar things?"

If the owners of other construction companies heard these words, they would probably want to kill him. All of his artworks were priceless. Yet only Amelia could get it free of charge! That was really unfair!

Amelia did not want to piss him off at the moment, so she played along and said, "Then I'll owe you a favor."

"Okay!" Anything would be easy to return, while a favor was the only difficult thing to repay. Kaiden thought that Amelia would definitely treat him better in the future.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Amelia asked politely and straightforwardly, "So, Mr. Wright, can you leave now?"

Kaiden was speechless. She had still treated him the same!

In the evening.

When Patrick returned home, he saw Amelia walking around in the living room with her head down. She was in a short-sleeved pajama and her hair was still wet.

He did not realize that she was mopping the floor until he got closer. He frowned slightly, strode over and held her hands. He asked sternly, "Amy, what are you doing?"

Hearing the displeasure in his words, Amelia quickly let go of the mop in her hand. She smiled at him and said, "I have nothing to do, so I just thought of moving around. If you don't like it, then

fine."

Patrick was not fooled by her. He stared at her eyes very seriously and asked, "Amy, do you still remember what I told you before?"

Like a child who had done something wrong, Amelia put her hands behind her back and replied softly, "You told me not to mop the floor, being afraid that I may slip if the floor is wet."

"Then how did you answer me back then?"

"I said... okay."

Patrick frowned more tightly. "How can I let you stay at home alone when you only pretend to be obedient?"

At Streams Villa.

Sissi took a glance at Abner beside her. After confirming that he had fallen asleep, she turned to look at the man next to her and asked softly, "Sawyer, your father won't come at such a late time, right?"

Sawyer put down the book in his hand and looked slightly down at her, "I've already ordered the shadow guards to prevent anyone from entering the island. You may have a good sleep."

Sissi let out a sigh of relief as she heard it. But she also knew that she could not hide for a lifetime. "Sawyer, I..."

"What's wrong?" Sawyer, who was just about to start reading again, put down the book after hearing her voice. He patiently looked towards her.

"Will you protect me for the rest of my life?" Sissi's big and charming eyes were full of sadness, which anyone would show sympathy for her after seeing such eyes.

Sawyer's brow furrowed slightly. His feelings for Sissi were very complicated, and he could hardly put them into words.

He still remembered the summer when he first saw Sissi, he felt if it was love at first sight.

He was still a childish youth back then, while she was a private tutor appointed by his mother.

She was wearing a black uniform with a tight skirt. Her curvaceous figure had impressed him for long.

Her voice was always gentle and soft as she was giving him lessons. But her eyes were serious and rigorous, which made her look sacred and inviolable.

At that time, he had always had an inexplicable sense of inferiority in front of her. It might be caused by their age differences. By chance, he got to know that she had a boyfriend whose surname was Hopper and was a few years younger than her.

For him, it was both bad news and good news. Because it showed that Sissi could accept men younger than her.

Since they could be in a relationship with some age differences, it should not be a problem if the age gap grew for a little wider.

After making up his mind, he began to pursue Sissi with full efforts. But, she never gave him a green light nor refused him clearly. She had only helped him with his homework with an arrogant and unattainable appearance.

At that time, Sissi was both confident and full of control. She knew the line between Patrick and herself. So, she could always deal well with all her pursuers, and had not failed for even once.

Others might undoubtedly see such woman as unsteady and indecent. But, when he thought that she was enchanting in her bones given her job as a tutor, he felt as if he had been set on fire and could never stop pursuing her.

Later, he deliberately made Sissi drunk and took her first night. But even so, she still maintained her noble and cold temperament.
