Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 580

The next second, Daniel interjected, "I'm only the executor of the project. The person in charge of the project is

dad."

"Shon you!" Amelia widened her eyes and then roared, "You think you can get away with it if you just push

the blto dad? Know that this project has always been overseen by you. The police can interrogate anybody

from the company and you'll be the person they point to in the end!

Also, who revealed himself in front of the TV back then? It was you!

Moreover, to complete this project, it must had gone through a lot of procedures, right? Didn't you review, sign

and hand over the contracts related to these procedures? I'll know once I check it out!"

"| didn't say that | don't want to admit it." Daniel's eyes glinted in the light, and he said, "I'm just saying that I'm

just helping dad and the company."

Amelia's hands were so tightly clenched together that the skin on the back of her hands was being scratched off.

How did she get together with someone so despicable as Daniel in the past? She was really blind!

Out of realization, the few of them had been sitting in the living room till dawn.

Amelia, who had not slept for the whole night, moved her stiff neck and said in a hoarse voice to Alice, 'Aunt

Alice, please turn on the TV. The morning news may have the latest update regarding the development zone."

Alice quickly followed her instructions. As Amelia had expected, the local TV station in Northville was mentioning

the collapse at the development zone and the trapped employees on the live broadcast. The news reporter said

that there were two casualties at the scene of the incident out of the twenty-one victims rescued. Eleven were

seriously injured and the others were harmed at different extents. A burst o despair spread through Amelia's

heart.

This was only the proportion of what happened to the twenty-one victims saved during an entire night's efforts.

But according to what Alice had said last night, there were a total of more than a hundred people living in the

dormitory!

Amelia dared not imagine how many people had lost their lives.

Daniel's bloodshot eyes stared at the television screen, his body pulled taut like a string that might snap at any

moment!

Alice was a soft-hearted person. When she heard that there were deaths and heavy injuries, tears fell down her

cheeks. "What... What should we do?"

Amelia also had an urge to cry when she saw Alice tearing up. She simply snatched the remote control from Alice

and turned off the miserable scenes on the TV.

"Amelia, I've let down your father. Under my management, this hhas beca mess. | should be blamed..."

Thinking of her husband, who was getting thinner and weaker as he laid on the hospital bed, Alice felt even more

sorrowful.

"Aunt Alice, calm down!" Seeing her crying so hard that she could hardly breathe, Amelia hurriedly reached out

to comfort her by patting her back. Huxton, on the other hand, silently poured a cup of tea and passed it to her.

Daniel looked at them as if nothing had happened from the side. He had wanted to see the downfall of The

Ramsay Family, but he did not expect that he himself would be the price for it! Ding-dong, ding-dong...

The doorbell rang ominously as if it was forewarning the threat of death. Amelia becserious. She looked at

Alice, who was stunned, and said, "Aunt Alice, you go upstairs and hide for a while. It may be the reporters!"

Alice replied feebly but firmly, "No, Amelia, | should be the one to face the media. This has nothing to do with

you at all! Don't get involved!"

"How can it have nothing to do with me? I'm part of The Ramsay Family. To be honest, you're just a stepmother.

It's not your place to worry about the business of the Ramsay Family yet!"

With that, Amelia said to Huxton, who was beside her, "Send Aunt Alice upstairs. Without my permission, she's

not allowed to step out of the room!"

Huxton glanced deeply at Amelia and replied, "Okay."

"I'm not going up!" No matter how unwilling Alice was, she was no match for Huxton. The servants in the house

wanted to step forward to help their madam when they saw her struggling, but they were warded away by

Huxton's cold gaze.

When Alice's figure disappeared behind the door, Amelia turned to Daniel and sneered, "Now, there are only the

two of us. No matter what happens later, you have to hold on!"

Daniel returned a strange smile, "With you as my companion, | won't be afraid even if it's the end of the world."

Amelia gave him a look of disdain and pursed her lips. "Don't try to deal withthe way you do with Brittany. It

just disgusts me."

Under Daniel's defeated look, Amelia sat on the main seat of the sofa and said to a maid, "Open the door."

"Yes, Ms. Amelia."

The reason why Amelia did not open the door herself was that it would have lowered her composure. No matter

how the situation changed later, she would have the upper hand if she remained prepared and calm to whatever

was going to happen.

A moment later, the maid entered back to the living room with two policemen.

When the two policemen saw Amelia, they were quite polite. After all, Amelia was now more than just someone

from the Ramsay Family.

Amelia gestured an invitation to them courteously with a smile and poured two cups of green tea for them. "You

two must be here for the incident at the development area, am | correct?"

The younger police officer, catching sight at the warmth in Amelia's eyes, got flustered and adjusted his cap

slightly.

The older police officer continued, "That's right. We want to ask Mr. Daniel, the overseer of the project, to come

with us."

Amelia replied calmly, "May | trouble the two of you to slow down a little?"

Noticing their frowns, Amelia

"Oh." Amelia placed her slender fingers on the landline next to her and stroked it faintly, "How about | ask Owen

to talk to you two?"

The two officers’ hearts suddenly thumped more rapidly than ever.

They were not just afraid of Owen. Instead, they were more terrified of who was on top of Owen, Howard Hopper.

It was rumored that Owen was brought up by Howard personally and was recommended by him to join the army.

Who would dare to offend Owen, who valued so much by Howard?

The corner of the older policeman's mouth twitched, and he said, "Ms. Amelia, we can proceed by ourselves, you

don't have to bother Mr. Hopper. Just tellwhen will Mr. Daniel able to cto the police station with us."

"At least one day from today."
