Chapter 417

"At a tlike this, | could only consider the Hopper family as a whole instead of our branch or the feelings of

you kids..." said Granny Hopper.

"Grandma, | understand. You don't have to explain." Patrick's voice was a little hoarse. Not only was he moved

by Granny Hopper's words, but he also felt sad.

Granny Hopper nodded several times as if she had concluded what was on her mind.

Under Amelia's wistful gaze

and Patrick's complicated face, she slowly walked to the boarding gate.

"Let's go," Amelia said, looking back at Patrick.

Patrick was silent.

"Mr. Hopper, let's go home. Grandma's gone," Amelia reminded him again.

It took Patrick a long tto look away. He was like a man wandering at a crossroads. "Amelia, do you think Dad

deserves forgiveness?"

Amelia pursed her lips and said, "It was not too late for him to stop before more damage is done."

At President's Office, Roxxon Corporation.

The senior manager, who was nearly strangled by Patrick yesterday, went to work without a tie today. He didn't

forget to unbutton the first two buttons of his shirt when he cin to see Patrick, in case the boss was unhappy

and put him on the edge of death again.

"Mr. Hopper, I've had done everything you toldto do. As you expected, all factories agree to return the

drinks. Now the warehouse workers are rushing to pack up the bottles and make sure that the drinks would all be

returned in a few days." After that, he nervously waited for Patrick's answer.

Patrick rubbed his eyebrows. In retrospect, he realized that even without Amelia's reminding, Ryan could still

have figured out the way to renting factories in such a short time.

Amelia's warning had only served to prepare Ryan in advance.

So, in the end, it was he who had been thoughtless and had no one to blfor the loss. Only a coward will

never stop making excuses for his failure.

"Well, you've done a good job. You may go now."

"Okay... Mr. Hopper, excuse me."

After closing the door, the senior manager let out a sigh of relief. He had expected himself to be yelled at by

Patrick instead of being praised. What a miracle.

After the manager left with gratitude, the secretary opened the door and walked in.

She had witnessed all the changes that had happened in the past two days and certainly knew that Patrick was

not as carefree as he looked. So she was more cautious when doing her jobs. "Mr. Hopper, these are the poverty-

stricken villages that have just been listed in the poverty alleviation program this year. Would you like to have a

look at them now?"

Patrick put down his hand on his forehead, revealing his handsface to the secretary. "Bring it to me."

The secretary handed him the file and said with mixed feelings, "Presidents of Roxxon used to donate money to

these poor villages at the end of the year. When your father was in office, he often delivered goods to the poor

himself."

The company's public image needed to be maintained. And undoubtedly, the best move was to help those in

need.

Not just Roxxon, but almost every listed company did the sto build positive images of their companies.

Patrick flipped through the list of candidates and asked, "You said my father did this himself?"

"Yes, your father has always been a very kind man." Although the secretary was young, she had experienced a

lot.

Before Howard retired, she had been working for him. Later, Howard passed the position to his younger brother...

Now, it was Patrick's turn. Speaking of which, she had worked for three presidents. Hearing the secretary's high

praise of Howard, Patrick had something complex in his eyes. Finally, he lifted his finger and pointed absent-

mindedly. "So we'll help Timothy Village this year."

The secretary had done her homework before coming in. Hearing the nof the village, she instantly said,

"The only Hope School in Timothy Village is badly in need of renovation. It was a good choice" Patrick nodded.

"Since the school is so shabby, we might as well build them a few new ones."

"A few?" The secretary's mouth twitched.

"What's wrong? We have money trouble?" Patrick looked at her.

The secretary hurried to shake her head. "No, Mr. Hopper. There are only 101 kids in the village. It wouldn't help

even if we build more schools."

Patrick felt it made sense and decided to leave it to the secretary. "Since you know more than | do in this aspect,

you're fully in charge of this matter."

"Okay. The school is desperately short of textbooks and stationery. | will have them bought later. Mr. Hopper,

since the village has few teachers, shall we hire sin the nof Roxxon?" The secretary asked methodically.

Patrick said in a low voice, "Sure. Their salary and benefits will be the sas employees of Roxxon. But they

need to sign a contract with us first, in case they go back on their words at the last minute when seeing the poor

condition of Timothy Village."

"Got it." Then she left.

After dealing with two matters in a row, Patrick turned his chair and stared at the falling snow outside the

window, losing in thought.

Tpassed so fast. In the blink of an eye, it was now three days before Christmas.

Today, all the employees in Roxxon paid no attention to their jobs. Instead, they were thinking about things such

as end-of-year bonuses, going home, or where to celebrate Christmas.

Seeing Lily and Amelia return to the department from the morning meeting, everyone rushed over and waited

with sparkling eyes for the news they had brought back.

"Wow!" It was good news. Many heaved a sigh of relief.

After solving the problem of going home, everyone began to care about other benefits. "Lily, Amelia, what about

our bonuses. What did Mr. Hopper say?"

Lily looked at Amelia with a smile and said, "Amelia will tell you."
