Chapter 581
For the two police officers, twenty-four hours was the limit that they could accept! Upon hearing this, Amelia
involuntarily let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you so much!"
After personally seeing the two policemen away, Amelia heard Daniel said meaningfully, "You sure know how to
make the best possible use out of everything."
Understanding his implication, Amelia did not feel ashamed at all. "Don't talk nonsense! If it weren't for the fact
that you still hold svalue, | would have asked the policemen to bring you to their station for execution!"
Daniel suddenly laughed, "If I'm dead, won't Brittany and the baby in her belly beca widow and an orphan?"
Amelia sneered and said, "If you think I'll sympathize with you just because of that, you're wrong. | want you to
find out all the information about the development before sunset tomorrow and give it to me, and it's your own
business that whatever punishment you receive!"
Daniel narrowed his eyes. "You're so heartless, aren't you afraid that | won't give you the information?"
"Letmake this clear for you. You're about to be held captive, so you don't have the right to negotiate with
me!" Amelia fixated her stare at him. "If you don't give it to me, I'll have someone knock you out and leave you
on the outskirts of the development side. I'll then get those dead and injured employees’ families to have a nice
chat with you personally. How about that?"
Daniel's expression changed upon hearing this. If Amelia really did this, then she might as well have sent him to
the police station.
Noticing the panic on his face, Amelia was secretly satisfied. "Also, don't try to pull any tricks on me. If Apex
Construction Corporation fails because of this matter, it won't affect me. After all, | have The Hopper Family as
my backer. However, you, Brittany, and your unborn child will be in huge debt and may even live a destitute life
because of this. That's all | have to say. Think about it yourself. Do you want to redeem yourself, or do you want
to make another mistake?"
Daniel closed his eyes and opened them after a few seconds. "When are we going back to the company?"
Amelia raised her beautiful eyebrows and said,
"Right now."
On the second floor.
Hearing the knock on the door, Huxton cracked the door open slightly. When he saw that it was Amelia through
the narrow gap, he swung the door back and invited her. Amelia did not enter and only asked, "Where's Aunt
Alice?"
Huxton explained slowly, "She kept wanting to go downstairs, so | knocked her out."
Amelia panicked a little, hoping that Alice would not blher after she woke up.
"Madam, who was it?" Huxton continued to ask.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmelia said, "It's the police. They said they wanted to take Daniel away. | can only ask them to delay for a day
because the company still needs him." Huxton nodded.
Amelia added worriedly, "I'm afraid there'll be more trouble coming our way."
Huxton glanced at her. "Have you thought about how to deal with it?"
An idea cto Amelia, and she suddenly asked, "Do you have a pen and paper with you?"
"Yes." Huxton took out a fountain pen from the inside of his suit and a piece of tissue paper from
his trouser pocket, then handed them to Amelia.
Amelia removed the lid of the pen. When the tip of the pen made contact with the tissue, the paper was torn
through.
Seeing this, she held and raised Huxton's enormous palm. Under his stiffened expression, she said without
looking up, "Don't be so nervous. | won't do anything to you. Relax."
"Madam, what are you doing?" Huxton looked down to find Amelia writing in his hand with the pen, so he could
not help but ask in curiosity.
"All done!" Amelia, who had finished the last stroke, released Huxton's hand and explained, "You first send Alice
and Brittany to this location so that they can lie low first." Huxton stared at the scrawled map in his palm and
asked, "Where is this?"
Amelia said, "My mother's dowry for my marriage, an old mansion. | haven't been back for many years. | don't
know why but | get sick whenever | go there. Eventually, as twent by, | don't really want to go there
anymore."
When Huxton put down his hand, he asked, "Madam, when will you tell Mr. Hopper about this?"
Hearing him, Amelia's attractive face froze a little, "Maybe tonight. I'm going to bring Daniel back to the
company now."
At Apex Construction Corporation.
As soon as Daniel had landed himself into trouble, the board of directors immediately felt imperiled. After all,
they were all in collusion with Daniel to sextent. They would receive dividends once the project in the
development side was completed. But if something went awry, they would just push the blame!
When Amelia arrived, she immediately asked Daniel to hold a board meeting in his name. It was quite a comical
scene to see a group of middle-aged men arguing till their face turned crimson.
If they had known it would cto this, then why did they do it in the first place?
Watching the chaotic sight before him, Daniel raised his voice and yelled, "Everyone, be quiet!"
Hearing Daniel raising the volof his voice, the directors, with Kaleb as their leader, immediately turned
against Daniel and pushed all the blon him. He was scolded for secretly changing the resources. which
caused such a detrimental effect on the company. And also for his actions of deceiving everybody.
Daniel had expected someone to turn
back against him midway through,
but he was not enraged, nor did he

Amelia, who was watching at the side, yawned. Even on his deathbed, Daniel still did not forget to have public
relation.
Regardless of whether Daniel's apology was genuine or hollow, just his attitude had made it difficult for the
board of directors to critic anything more.
Because if they were to say that they
wanted to get to the bottom of this,

Glancing at the people in his vision field that all had different expressions on, Daniel said with a strange
smile, "Is there anyone volunteer?"
Everyone's attention fell on the young Amelia at once. Their meaning was almost self-evident.
In their opinion, 'talent' and 'morale' were not the most important qualities. On the contrary, they hoped that the
person who took over the company was mediocrity, and it was even better if they were an incompetent lame
duck. The two daughters of the Ramsay Family obviously aligned with their standards.

Once the situation had settled down, they would find an excuse to kick her out of Apex Construction Corporation.
Even if Amelia was Patrick's wife, the internal affairs of Apex Construction Corporation would never fall under
Roxxon's orders!
