Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 583

The directors' eyes gleamed and Amelia had a bad feeling that they were filled with ill intentions. She blabbered, "Both Apex Construction Corporation and I will be needing your help. So, I hope everyone in this room can work toward the same goal and let sleeping dogs lie. Although I lack the experience in facing emergencies when compared to the respectable directors here, I believe that there lays strength in unity. What do you think?"

Kaleb and the rest of the board were slightly upset by Amelia's speech. They were the elders of the company, so why were they being lectured like rookies?

One of the directors broke the tense atmosphere and said, "President Ramsay, I support and endorse your statement. From now on, anything that you wish to enquire, including about the company's operation, finances, new recruitment project and new sponsorship investment, as long as you look for me, I, Jonathan Tucker, will be here for you!"

As soon as Jonathan finished, several directors next to him began to express their earnest opinions one after another.

Out of the corner of her eyes, Amelia noticed that when Jonathan spoke, Kaleb's and the group nearby him had a shift in their expressions. Then, she also observed that Kaleb and Jonathan were sitting at the two ends of the table respectively as if they were representing two different groups. However, the members of Kaleb's group drastically outnumbered Jonathan's.

Regardless, it was always better to have someone backing her than none. After giving Jonathan a grateful nod, Amelia said a few more motivational words to the group and dismissed the meeting.

Kaleb and his party left in a flash, probably to attend their own private meeting.

Glancing at Daniel, Amelia said impolitely, "Go back to your office and sort out the documents. I'll find you later."

Daniel raised his brow and asked, "Why don't you come with me? With you around, so just I won't dare to play any tricks, right?"

Amelia grinned. "You can do whatever you want. If you've cheated me and Apex Construction Corporation, you'll be doomed either way."

Daniel glowered and slammed the chair beneath him. In a fit of frustrated, unvented anger, he stood up and left.

Amelia was not worried if Daniel would take the opportunity to flee. Since the police were able to

give him freedom for one more day, then they must have set up preventative measures, in case he tried to escape. Amelia also believed that Daniel was not so stupid as to tag himself with the crime of abscondment.

When Daniel was out of sight, Amelia caught up to Jonathan and requested, "Uncle Tucker, please stay."

Jonathan turned and looked at Amelia calmly. "President Ramsay, what can I do for you?"

President Ramsay?

She found the new term of address hard to process. She very much preferred if she still was Madam Ramsay.

Pushing the disconsolate thoughts from her mind, she began to cotton up to him. "Uncle Tucker looks familiar to me. Have we met before?"

A smile appeared on Jonathan's face. "President Ramsay, you don't do birthday parties, nor do you live with The Ramsay Family. I only saw Ms. Brittany whenever I visited your family's house in the past."

Amelia was surprised. Although Jonathan and she never met, he seemed to be a frequent guest at home. She wondered what was the relationship between him and her father.

As if he could read her mind, Jonathan continued, "Your father and I have known each other since a long time ago. He was the one who brought me along to start the business, so I can be considered as someone who witnessed the growth of the company from the beginning."

Amelia understood and said, "Is this the reason why Uncle Tucker supports me?"

Jonathan nodded. "That's right. Although I don't have high expectations of you, you're still my old friend's daughter. I can't stand by and watch you being alone and helpless."
