Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1587

Kaleb and the neutral gangs all burst into an uproar. "Wright, mind your words!"

Kaiden leaned back on the chair in a very relaxing way. He smiled and said, "It is just a kind reminder to you all. After all, you are all old and fragile. Sometimes you might thought that you are too great to mind other's business but forget your own role, right?"

Everyone except Amelia and Jonathan were furious. Kaleb now regarded himself as the acting chairman, and he could not wait to show off his power. "Kaiden, don't think that you are invincible because of your cousin. Let me tell you, even if your cousin is here today, I..."

"What's that?" At this moment, a deep voice came from the door.

"I won't let you resign so easily!" Kaleb sneered with disdain as he turned back to look at the person coming in. He was almost shock to death!

"Cousin brother!" Kaiden had already stood up at this moment and greeted the man who have just came in enthusiastically. "You are finally here."

Sawyer was always been known as a mysterious guy. This this greeting "cousin", lifting all the mysterious veil of Sawyer.

In addition, the news had published photos of him and Amelia, so everyone immediately recognize that this man was actually the mysterious Sawyer.

Now that Kaleb who had just spoken harshly, wished so much that Sawyer hadn't heard what he said.

However, not only did Sawyer heard it, but he also replied. Right now, a pair of hawk-like eyes that didn't reveal any emotion were fixed on him, as if he was going to torn the guy who dared to bully his beloved cousin.

With this glare, Kaleb did not know what should he do at all. He suddenly had a frustrating realization, that is even he had been chosen as acting chairman, he would still need to follow others' will.

Of course, this sense of frustration only appeared for a moment. Kaleb soon cheered up and wanted to shake hands with the investor of Apex Construction Corporation.

In the end, not only that he did not managed to shake hand with Sawyer, he was told by one of Sawyer's assistants. "Sorry, my master doesn't like others touching him."

What a humiliation!

Kaleb snorted in his heart, but he smiled awkwardly, "It's okay, I offended you at first."

"Mr..." Kaleb put on a smile as he bowed at Sawyer, "Mr. Quartley, may I ask why brings you here today?"

As usual, Sawyer's assistant replied, "My master came here today to give you a gift."

Kaleb was stunned with Sawyer's words. He thought that he wasn't familiar with Sawyer yet Sawyer was sending him something. Could it be that he wanted to befriend him?

Just as Kaleb was guessing, Amelia could not help but look at Sawyer in doubt, asking him what he had come for?

When Sawyer saw her confusion and nervousness, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, but for some reason, it made Amelia feel a chill run down her spine.

Should she ask Patrick to come over?

Just as Amelia was about to gesture to Audrey, Kaiden whispered in her ear, "Don't be so nervous. My cousin is here to help you."

Help me?

Amelia looked at Kaiden in surprise and saw him nodding at her earnestly.

She temporarily suppressed the idea of calling for reinforcements.

Glancing at Kaleb's greedy face, Sawyer turned to his assistant, "Give it to him."

The assistant responded, "Yes!"

Kaleb put on the formality, "Mr. Quartley, how kind of you to bring me a gift."

As he spoke, Sawyer's assistant lowered his head and unzipped his briefcase. He took out a folder and handed it to him. "My master gave it to you. Take it."

Kaleb pretended to be polite and asked, "What is this?"

"You'll know as soon as you see it." The assistant did not explain much.

"Then... thank you." Kaleb smiled ingratiatingly at Sawyer, he took the folder and opened its cover, revealing the documents inside.

After Kaleb saw the contents, his face instantly turned dark. He let out a deafening cry, "This is impossible!!!"

His was so loud that it immediately attracted everyone's attention. People started asking—

"It is good to have confidence, but ability can't be done with words. My master's time is very precious. He doesn't want to spend time waiting for it, so I'm sorry. Please sign the agreement to end the cooperation now."

The implication was that Sawyer did not want to give him any chance to prove himself! Wasn't this absurd?

Kaleb only felt a pain in his throat and sour lips. He had thought about what kind of chain reaction Amelia would cause if she lost her position, but he always felt that no one would want to let go of the benefits to avenge Amelia. Even if Kaiden wanted to make a scene, he was confident to deal with him.

However, everything that was happening now was completely beyond what he thought. First, it was Kaiden's resignation, and then it was Sawyer's decision to terminate the cooperation. They did not seem to care about the profit being tarnished at all. They were only venting their anger on behalf of Amelia!

"Mr. Quartley..." At this time, Jonathan suddenly asked, "The reason why you are uneasy starts with our newly elected acting chairman. If we vote again, can we relieve your uneasiness?"

"Oh?" Sawyer gave Jonathan another look. "That depends on who you've chosen."

Then, Jonathan's heart was filled with joy. Sawyer was indeed meant to help Director Ramsay. He raised his hand and pointed at Amelia, asking with full confidence, "What if this person is her?"

Sawyer glanced at Amelia, noncommittal.

Kaleb hurriedly objected, "No!"

Jonathan asked coldly, "Why not?"

Kaleb quickly rolled his eyes and said, "The results of Amelia's motion was clear, forty to twenty. This is the vote result. How can it be taken lightly?"

Jonathan said with a solemn face, "But now, it's about whether Mr. Quartley will continue to cooperate with our company or not! Since Mr. Quartley is not at ease to hand over the Eastern District project to you, shouldn't you give it a little thought for the long- term interests of the company?"

Kaleb clenched his fists uncontrollably. A small step at the board of directors was a big step in his life. He had planned this in the expense of his own money and other's life.

"Kaleb, I remember you said that you want to lead the company to a better tomorrow. Now, a better tomorrow is going to disappear because of you. Are you not going to do something about it?"

As Jonathan spoke, he gave the people next to him a meaningful eye contact. Immediately, someone started to echo, "That's right Kaleb. You kept saying that everything is for the company, but now you're disregarding the company's interests. Don't you think this is not in line with your promise?"

"I!" Kaleb felt that he was forced to make a decision. After muttering for a long time, he said, "Mr. Quartley, do you need me to remind you that it is a breach of contract to temporarily terminate your cooperation. Let alone the compensation, it's hard for you to explain it to the government, isn't it?"
