Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 50

The next day.

Lily was busy organising the promotion for Saint Valentine's Day. The sales department's performance was closely related to the department store under Roxxon. Therefore, all the staff had to stay and work overtime during this period.

The single staff cheered at the Day, laughing at those married or in-relationship colleagues.

After Lily assigned everyone job except her, Amelia asked, "Ms. Seth, you haven't arranged a task for me."

Looking at her kindly, Ms. Lily said, "My dear, you've been working so hard every day and I permit you on a paid leave."

"Ms. Seth, I'm also in a relationship. I also need a holiday!" Doris shouted.

"Me too..." It was obvious that everyone wanted a leave!

Ms. Lily slammed the table and said, "Stop!"

The staff sighed. Ms. Lily was too partial openly. Who authorised her to do this!

If everyone knew that it was Patrick who authorised Ms. Lily to protect and connive at Amelia, all the staff might go for a demonstration.

Amelia had been bored for a few days, clicking

WhatsApp, logging in, intending to kill time.

As soon as she logged in, a series of "drip, drip, drip" sounded. She clicked on it and found it was Milton.

"Amelia, my mom's birthday party will be at 7pm tomorrow. Remember to prepare an expensive and high-quality gift."

Thinking for a while, Amelia replied, "Milton, I'm married!"

Milton: [Spare the time for tomorrow evening please. I'll pick you.]

Amelia: [I'm sorry to have let you know that I'm married.]

Milton's profile picture darkened quickly, as if he had not seen her message.

Amelia was afraid of Milton acting like this. She had known Milton since they were a child. Milton usually lost his temper right away and the anger was vented; but when he pretended as if nothing had happened, he really minded it.

While she was in a trance, the mobile phone on the table rang.

Taking a look at the caller, Amelia exited WhatsApp, picking up her phone and answering, "Hello, Mr. Hopper?"

Mr. Hopper said, "Madam Amelia, there is a document in my office. Please send it to the racecourse in western suburbs?"

Amelia intended to answer, "I..."

Before she could think about how to respond, Patrick snorted and said, "Anyway, you are available

at the moment."

Amelia asked with surprise, "How do you know I'm available?"

Patrick said slowly, "Everyone in the company knows that you are the laziest and the most idle."

Before Amelia could refute, the phone was cut off.

Amelia stared at the innocent mobile, thinking that she was not lazy initially!

Arriving at Patrick's office, Amelia explained to his secretary and the secretary nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, Madam Amelia."

The secretary took the folder from the shelf and handed it to her and then began organising her desk.
