Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1716

"Mr. Hopper..." Amelia was so moved that she was at a loss for what to say.

Patrick held her hand lightly, and his eyes were sincere. "This time, don't reject me again. Okay, Amy?"

In the past, Amelia would have refused his suggestion because she did not want to owe him anything.

At the core of it, it was because she lacked confidence in their marriage, so she did not dare to rely entirely on him.

However, they had gone through thick and thin. So, she had completely recognized his personality. Naturally, Amelia became willing to depend on Patrick.

"Mr. Hopper, thank you for acquiring Apex Construction Corporation. I think Aunt Alice and Dad will also be glad to accept it."

Patrick relaxed at the reply.

"What do you think, Aunt Alice?" Even so, Amelia still wanted to hear Alice's thoughts.

However, what came into sight was Alice's excited tears. "Of course, I have no objection! Patrick is trustworthy, and I believe that after the acquisition, the company will be transformed”

Amelia smiled and said, "I think so too. I have confidence in Mr. Hopper!”

Patrick listened intently.

At first, Patrick was worried that Amelia would reject his suggestion, who was independent and stubborn. But it seemed that he was concerned for nothing.

After he thought about it carefully, perhaps it was not that she did not want to rely on him before, but that he did not give her enough sense of security, which was why there were so many consequences.

At this, Patrick held Amelia's hand in his palm tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Amy, I don't dare to guarantee too much, but there are at least two things I can do. I'll provide sufficient operating funds for Apex Construction Corporation. Also, I'll regain the Easthern project that Apex Construction Corporation has lost from the government and the competitors."

On one hand, Amelia was shocked by Patrick's courage. On the other hand, she was shocked that the Easthern project had not been carried out yet. "it has been such a long time. The government still hasn't found a construction company for the project?"

Generally, with the support of the government, coupled with the lucrative benefits from the project, no construction company would want to miss the opportunity. Did the government not re-tender?

No way. At least three months had passed. Would the government be so dense as to not do anything?

In the face of her question, Patrick looked at Alice.

Patrick had not received much news in the past three months other than matters concerning Amelia. So, Patrick could only seek Alice's help.

Alice had been contacting Jonathan often, so she knew about what was going on with Apex Construction Corporation and the Easthern Project. She explained, "The government took some actions before, but I heard that they were suppressed by Gramps Hopper. Also, the government privately contacted Kaiden and asked him to come up with a blueprint that was exactly the same as the one before. However, Kaiden turned it down and dragged it out. Finally, the situation arrives at this stage."

Amelia immediately turned to look at Patrick. He seemed to be lost in thought, which meant he did now know about this.

In other words, before Patrick could speak up for her, Gramps Hopper had voluntarily put pressure on the government for her.

Gramps Hopper was not one to use power for private gains, but he had done such a thing for Amelia. He must have undergone some inner struggle to do that.

Amelia let out a sigh at the revelation.

"Although gramps is always tough, his heart is tender. Mr. Hopper, we have to treat him better. What do you think?"

Patrick nodded. "Amy, I understand what you mean. I won't bicker with him as much again."

In fact, Patrick rarely argued with Gramps Hopper. The misunderstanding and strong-headedness that divided them had slowly disintegrated and even faded after Amelia showed up in their lives.

Patrick was glad that he had loved the right person. Otherwise, his family would have fallen apart.

Amelia then continued, "Kaiden Wright. I didn't expect him to help me so much either. I should find a good time to thank him."

"Okay." Patrick nodded at first, then continued, "But you have to wait until you recover."

"Got it!" Amelia agreed. She then pointed at the pear that Nora had washed and placed on the bedside table. Amelia said, "Mr. Hopper, I'm a little thirsty. Can you help me get a pear?"

“I'll feed you."

Patrick found a fruit knife from the drawer. He then picked a huge pear, peeled it, then cut it. Finally, he fed Amelia.

In the evening.

Amelia looked up at the sky and found that the sun gradually could not fight the night. The sky revealed an oppressive gloom.

"Okay, thank you." How could Alice refuse?

As it turned out, Alice truly only needed to wait for a while.

Just twenty minutes later, Patrick's phone rang next to him.

After he answered the call, he put down his phone and said to Alice, "Mom, the driver is waiting for you on the ground floor with an umbrella. After you head downstairs, he'll take you to Dad's hospital directly."

Then, he looked down at Amelia and said, "Please forgive me, but I'm worried about leaving Amy here alone, so I can't see you downstairs. I hope you understand."

"It's fine. I'll be fine to go downstairs alone," Alice smiled and addured. Then, she told Amelia to be careful before she got up and left.

"Amy," Patrick looked at Amelia and said in a tone of relief. "Fortunately, Mom left. Otherwise, I was worried that I would show my true colours in front of her."

"You can't be... Hmm!” Before Amelia could finish her words, Patrick lowered his head and kissed her.

In the next second, Patrick bent down his strong body and pressed Amelia down on the soft sofa. He also did not forget to place his hand under her head to prevent her from bumping her head.

When the atmosphere in the room was getting increasingly erotic, someone knocked on the door. Amelia was startled and wanted to push Patrick away.

But Patrick, who had been holding himself back, grabbed her hand and forced her to hold his hand tightly.

At the same time, the knocking on the door got louder. Then, a woman called for Amelia.

"What the h*ll? Patrick is bullying her!" Jessica saw what was happening in the ward through the window. In an instant, she rolled up her sleeves in ire and decided to barge into the ward.

"Ah..." On the surface, Wayne pretended as if he could not stop Jessica. However, he was waiting to see a good show. Hence, he followed behind Jessica and entered the ward.

Patrick was only focused on kissing Amelia. When he was finally satisfied, only then did he pull away from her. He then covered Amelia's face with his hand and looked away from her charming and passionate eyes. After that, he called out to the visitors, "Don't you two know how to knock before you came in?"

Jessica was defeated by Patrick's baseless accusation. "I almost tore the door down, but I didn't see you open it. Speaking of which, can you hold yourself back a little? Amelia has a fever. How can you bully her like that?"

But Patrick smirked and corrected, "I'm showing my love to her, something an unlovable woman like you will never understand."
