Patrick was upset to see Amelia dressed up in jewels today, different from her usual looks. "You're going to meet a man?"
"Uh-huh," Amelia said unconcernedly before she continued with her ornaments.
The next second, she seemed to see a flash in front of her, and something was gone as Patrick lift his hand.
She touched her slightly stinging earlobe, only to find that the earring on her left ear had disappeared!
"Patrick!" Without any doubt, Amelia knew it was the man behind her. She spread her hand, trying to hold back her anger, and urged, "Stop making fun of me. Give me the earring, lamina hurry to discuss the cooperation."
"Is that necessary? Roxxon can give you as many commercials as you want!" Patrick said domineeringly. Deep down, he did not want her to show up in public.
Amelia said with a half-smile, "Although I am very tempted, no, in case you will say that I got the commercials only because you were doing charity out of pity for me. If so, don't I owe you again?"
Patrick's face darkened. After a while, she heard him say, "Whatever."
With that, he went out with her earring in his hand.
In this regard, Amelia could only replace it with another relatively ordinary pair from the dresser.
At the Crown Jewelry Company.
"Miss Ramsay, please have a seat."
Mr. Cosmo, the CEO of the jewelry company, was in his late 40s and had made his fortune selling tobacco as a young man.
It was said that he had a good relationship with the local government, so at least Amelia didn't have to worry about the company suddenly going out of business while working with him.
"Mr. Cosmo." Amelia shook hands with him out of courtesy and found Mr. Cosmo said as he looked at her hand with regret, "Miss Ramsay, I noticed your beautiful hands when I was watching the commercial of your products." After a sigh, "What a pity..."
Amelia looked puzzled. Since Mr. Cosmo liked her hands and had planned to hire her, why would he say it was a pity?
It didn't take long for Amelia to realize how strange this was.
"What? How much are you offering?" When she heard the commission offered by Mr. Cosmo, her beautiful face twisted.
"99," said Mr. Cosmo.
Amelia was silent. Her expression seemed to say, "I must be not of sound mind and mishearing."
"Miss Ramsay, you didn't get it wrong. It's 99." Mr. Cosmo repeated.
Amelia managed finally, "Every hour?"
Mr. Cosmo shook his head slowly. "Every day."
Amelia wasn't sure what to make of it.
"Wait!" She remembered that Mr. Cosmo was very generous on the phone. Even if she couldn't earn tens of thousands a day, she should at least have a couple of thousands, shouldn't she?
Could it be... Suddenly, she was reminded of the man who always acted against her and suppressed her with his power-Patrick!
It must be him who had changed Mr. Cosmo's mind!
Once again, Amelia was impressed by Patrick's influence. What a pity that he had been using it on her all the time!
