When Patrick who had remained silent all this while heard Amelia's words, he talked with a gloomy face, "Amelia, it's time for us to go home."
He finally spoke when the drama ended.
Amelia turned her head and said indifferently, "I don't want to go home for the time being. If you are tired, you can go home first."
After Amelia finished talking, she talked to Dr. Scarlett and Hobart, "We are all friends. Let's have a meal and get to know each other. I know there's a very great restaurant on the fourth floor..."
With Dr. Scarlett along, Hobart would definitely have to behave himself.
Patrick's voice sank. "Amelia, don't make me angry."
Amelia's face had no expression and said to Dr. Scarlett and Hobart, "Let's go, I'll lead the way."
As that, Amelia left Patrick behind!
Dr. Scarlett was secretly disappointed with Patrick's behavior just now. After despising him in her heart, she left with Amelia.
As for Hobart, he was trying to get the opportunity to get close to Amelia. He did not even bother to
greet Patrick at all.
The onlookers were all shocked to watch this scene. They seemed to have made a mistake and Patrick was the one who was being neglected...
"Sir, do we need to catch up with them?"
Huxton sighed when he noticed that Patrick's eyes were looking at Amelia like a glue and thought, "Since you care so much about her but why did you ignore her just now?"
Patrick said stiffly, "Let's go home."
Huxton was stunned. He did not expect Patrick give up so easily. "Sir, you..."
"Let's go!" Patrick growled in a low voice.
"Okay." Huxton had nothing else to say.
On their way home, Patrick ordered Huxton in a cold voice, "Tell the staff to close the business of all the food stores on fourth, eighth, twelve and sixteen floors in Roxxon."
Huxton's uneasy heart calmed down instead when he heard this. This was Patrick's usual harsh style. However, Patrick was so angry that he might have forgotten it.
"Sir, I'm not working at Roxxon Corporation so I don't have the contacts."
Patrick was stunned at first when he heard this.
Then he covered it up and said, "I know! I was just gibberish, can't I?"
"Of course you can." Huxton greeted respectfully.
Patrick was in bad mood and he took out his mobile phone from his pockets. He found the contact of Roxxon Department Store's manager. Then he dialed the number immediately.
A few seconds after Patrick finished the call, he sneered. "Let's see what you can do this time!"
Huxton hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, I'm afraid that it's not enough for you to just close the Roxxon's food stores. Madam can still invite her friends to have dinner somewhere else."
Food was human's priority. Even though Patrick was very powerful but it was impossible for him to close down all the restaurant in Northville because he was moody. This would anger the public.
Patrick sat up and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Huxton who was dealing with the angry master said with resentment, "Sir, I was just about to tell you but it was you who insisted on leaving."
