Chapter 144
"Firing Meggie can't solve the problem, | want to fire those top managers in the Human Resources Department
who have causal attitudes towards work. Because the new employees they hired were all gossipy and could only
reply on their family backgrounds.
"Who do you want to fire?" The secretary asked.
Rubbing the tissue into a ball and throwing it into the trash can at his feet, Patrick said slowly, "The deputy
manager of the Human Resources Department." Firing the deputy manager could give the Human Resources
Department a warning. It wouldn't effect the department nor make old employees unsatisfied. The secretary
nodded, then glanced at the mouse in Patrick's hand and asked in confusion, "Mr. Hopper, isn't this mouse quite
clean?"
Patrick replied casually, "Meggie touched it, so | wipe it."
The secretary was speechless.
Then, Patrick threw the mouse into the trash can and said to the secretary, "Forget it, senda new one."
In the evening, in the Land of Fragrance.
Patrick walked into the living room and heard the sound of the cooker hood in the kitchen. He put down his
briefcase and walked to the kitchen. Then he found that Amelia was preparing dinner. The dress she wore was
still the one she put on before going to work in the morning, which outlined her slim waist, sexy bottom, and
slender legs.
Hearing the footsteps, Amelia turned around naturally, then Patrick saw the wound on her knee.
His face darkened as he strode over and grabbed the egg-striking machine in her hand. He frowned and asked,
"Why don't you use a band-aid?"
Amelia said calmly, "I'm not that seriously injured. Givethe egg-striking machine. | need to cook."
Her expression was a little indifferent. Patrick asked unhappily, "Are you angry with me?"
Amelia didn't say anything, but her expression and movements were indifferent.
Patrick held her in his arms and said, "Are you blamingfor causing you so much trouble?"
"No. I'm suffering from dysmenorrhea, so I'm a little depressed."
But in Patrick's eyes, her depressed expression was more like a silent protest.
He felt a little annoyed. He didn't deliberately cause trouble for her work. After knowing that she was tripped, he
immediately took smeasures to help her. Wasn't that enough? Patrick lifted her delicate chin and asked with
a poker face, "You're lying to me."
There was a hint of complaint in the eyes of Amelia, "So what do you want from me?"
Hearing this, Patrick suddenly becsilent.

Yeah, what did he want from her?
After marring Amelia, his life completely changed. No matter he treated Amelia well or badly, he felt
uncomfortable.
He wanted to live a sweet life with Amelia, but he loved another woman in his heart, a woman that he might
never forget in his life.
Patrick blinked his eyes which were filled with mixed emotions. Then he returned to normal and said, "Whether
you are obedient or not, | can see you through at a glance. Don't try to foolwith a fake expression.
Understand?"
Amelia's heart beat so fast. Patrick was more possessive than she thought.
Glancing at the egg-striking machine, Patrick asked with interest, "Mrs. Hopper, do you know how to make
omelette rice?"
Amelia answered quickly, "It's easy to cook. Do you want to eat it?"
"Yeah, | want to eat." Patrick said blandly. When he thought that Sissi was good at making omelette rice, he
suddenly missed her.
Amelia nodded and took the egg-striking machine from his hand, "I'll cook it."
During the meal, seeing that Patrick liked eating omelette rice so much, Amelia laughed and said, "I didn't
expect that you like eating this." "What's wrong?" Patrick's voice raised. He felt as if Amelia was doubting why he
liked Sissi.
Amelia only mentioned it unintentionally and did not know what Patrick was thinking. When she saw that Patrick
was unhappy, she said in a hurry, "You disliked the ordinary dishes | ordered in the restaurant yesterday. But you
like eating omelette rice so much. Is it too delicious?"
Patrick said reflexively, "It's not as delicious as the one she made."
Amelia asked, "Who?"
Patrick realized that he had said something wrong, and he said with guilty eyes, "I mean, it's not as delicious as
the one Auntie Li made."
"Really?" Amelia was a little doubtful.
Because Cynthia was fired, there was a nanny called Anntie Li who cto their house to clean up and cook
every weekend. But did Auntie Li make omelette rice for Patrick?
Amelia couldn't remember it.
A week later.
During this period of time, Amelia's life in Roxxon turned to peaceful again. It seemed that it was just her illusion
that someone tripped her that day.
She paid attention to what people in
the company were discussing about
these days. It was said ThaCPatick
ied Mg Yo much recently.
Meggie stayed in the president's
office all day and even ate on the
sdesk with Patrick. The content

Hearing this, Amelia was both relieved and shocked because of Patrick's means to deal with women.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a little sympathy for Meggie. Obviously, she did not know that the one who
tripped her was Meggie!
During the break, Amelia stopped working and went to make tea in the tea room.
When she stood in front of the water
fountain to pour water, a group of
women quietly gathered around her.
They all looked unfriendly as if they
wanted to fight with Amelia. Amelia
thought that they were Eolas
waiting in ly ie WHtdr)so'she was
abolit DG quickly. Unexpectedly,
one of them grabbed her arm and
stopped her from leaving. Amelia
was shocked and looked up. She
didn't know the girl who grabbed her
arm. It was not until she glanced at
her work card that she knew the girl
was Meggie. There were three girls
who accompanied Meggie, all of
whom were from the Public Relations
Department. They were beautiful, but
their faces were all malicious at the
moment. Amelia looked at them
quietly, waiting for them to explain
their intentions. The content is on

"Are you the woman who was abandoned by Mr. Hopper?" Before Meggie could speak, the big-eyed girl beside
her spoke first.
Amelia didn't agree with the word "abandoned". She said, "Mr. Hopper is just my leader in the company. We have
no other relationship and he didn't abandon me.
Meggie, who was holding Amelia's
arm, said hypocritically, "Amelia, |

RT 10 you. Now I've
completely replaced you. | really feel
sorry for you." Amelia glanced at the
blue veins on the back of Meggie's
hand and said with a faint smile, "Is
this how you apologize to me?" The

"Oh! Look at what I've done!" Meggie pretended to be surprised and quickly loosened her hand. But there was a
red mark on Amelia's wrist because she pinched Amelia with great strength.
