Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 2

As soon as the call ended, Amelia rushed the taxi driver to go faster, which made the driver grow more annoyed

by the second.

Finally, Amelia arrived at the building of Roxxon Corporation on time.

Looking up from below, the building had stood tall and strong for more than 60 years, in the heart of Northville,

the most prosperous city in the country. This had been the place where Amelia started working when she was

fresh out of college three years ago.

3rd floor, sales department, office area.

'Good morning, Miss Ramsay."

‘Good morning, chief!"

‘Morning everyone!" As soon as Amelia stepped into the office, she was greeted by her colleagues.

She worked hard in the Roxxon Corporation for three years, starting as a sales representative to a sales

supervisor. Every step on the way, she managed to impressed her co-workers and subordinates with her

outstanding performance and professional work ethics.

Doris, Amelia's assistant, followed her closely and said with relief, "Thank god you are here now, Miss Ramsay!

Mr. Thompson just toldto call you again!"

‘Thank you Doris." Amelia gave Doris a pat on her

shoulder.

She didn't take the elevator to the conference room right away. Instead, she went back to her desk, took out a

new set of clothes from her drawer. Then she went to the bathroom to get rid of her current wrinkled outfit

thanks to Patrick Hopper.

Standing in front of the mirror, she stared at the marks on her neck as the "souvenirs" from the other night. She

could barely cover them by pulling up her collar.

"Hey, have you guys heard? The soon-to-be-appointed executive officer cback from Europe. It's like a

prodigal son returned!"

"What's wrong with that? You don't know much about his background, do you? You guys remember Howard

Hopper? He is the former director who founded Roxxon and turned it into a world-renowned company." Seeing

everyone nodded, the man continued excitedly, "And the one who will take over Roxxon today is Howard

Hopper's youngest son!"

"That's odd. Howard Hopper has two sons. Yet he only asked his younger brother to lead Roxxon when he retired.

It all changes until today. Won't he be afraid of a hostile takeover by others?" "Well... Rumours said that the

eldest son in the family was a bit of a bad apple. As for his second son, we will find out soon enough. Who

knows? Maybe both of Hopper boys are not built to run Roxxon." From the third floor to the 18th floor, Amelia

silently listened to the gossip along the way. As soon as the elevator door opened, she followed the crowd and

entered the conference room.

The nplates on the table were arranged in advance. Amelia casually glanced at the empty chair for an

executive officer and wondered, "It's almost nine. And the legendary Mr. Hopper still hasn't showed up yet. Is this

him sending all of us a message?"

Suddenly, she heard a creaking sound as the two red wooden doors were pushed open and two men walked into

the room. The first one was the secretary of the chief executive officer, followed by the executive officer Zach

Hopper.

Though beyond his prage, Zach Hopper seemed energetic and driven. Meanwhile, the board was really

concerned about his decision of letting a young rookie take over the Roxxon empire. But when everyone had a

good look at the man standing next to Zach Hopper, they succumbed to him with an aura of power.

He was tall and slender in a suit and tie. His face was carved by angels with thin red lips that no women could

resist.

He casually put one hand in his trouser pocket while the other loosened his tie. He didn't look like he was here

for a meeting, more like a visitor of Roxxon.

'Woah, he is hot!"

Was he really that charming?

Amelia, who heard the murmurs of the crowd, couldn't help but take a peek. The man, who was commented as

"perfect" by female colleagues, had walked to the nearest window.

When the man's piercing eyes entered her sight, she was so shocked she almost jumped out of her leather chair!

She blinked a few more times just to make sure what she saw is real. Staring at his eyes, nose and mouth, she

was certain that he is the sman she just saw this morning.

In other words, she slept with her boss and called him a male escort. Did she decide to look for a death wish

because life was boring?

Amelia shuddered and suppressed her urge to dig a hole and bury herself. Then she leaned stiffly against the

back of her chair, trying to avoid being recognized.

At this moment, the man who

officially received the letter for eqyity

Amelia tried to blend in the crowd.

She felt a mild headache with a silver

lining. At least Patrick did not

a supervisor in the department. If

there was anything that requires

to help. After all, he had been treated

her well these few years. The content

Amelia, who thought she was out of the woods, missed the pair of eyes fixed on her from a man just a few steps

away.

It was 6 p.m. in Roxxon Corporation.

After seeing the caller ID, Amelia slightly frowned and picked it up. She didn't even bother to greet, but waiting

for the caller to speak first.
