Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 65

"In the eyes of playboys like us, women were easily forgotten after playing for a short time." Hobart wanted to remind Patrick about this.

Patrick nodded and said, "Of course."

"It's good that you know this!" Hobart continued, "Last night, I ran into Amelia at Royal Joy Club. I wanted to invite her for a drink, but I didn't expect her to slap me. Do you see my nose? It was scratched by her leather bag!"

Upon hearing this, Patrick tightened his fingers, thinking Amelia's ankle was injured because of him?

"Mr. Smith, I know about Amelia's temper. She won't beat anyone unless there's no other option."

Hobart's face darkened and said, "Mr. Hopper, you mean that I wronged her?"

Patrick said calmly, "I mean, maybe there's some misunderstanding?"

Hobart said decisively, "There's no misunderstanding! The injury on my nose is an ironclad proof!"

Patrick raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, even if she beat you, what do you want?"

Taking advantage of his partnership with Roxxon, Hobart insisted, "I want her to apologize to me in front of you!"

Patrick smiled but said nothing.

Seeing that he did not say anything, Hobart narrowed his eyes and said, "Mr. Hopper, it's just an apology. Don't tell me you can't even command a small supervisor. If the boss of Roxxon is so spineless, I think I will develop the partnership with others."

Patrick said slowly, "Mr. Smith, may I remind you that we both sides have signed and stamped the contract. If you break the contract, you have to pay double the penalty."

Hobart hated Patrick's scheming manner, which made him feel like he was inferior to him!

This idea suddenly upgraded his dispute with Amelia to the one with Patrick. "It's just $7 million. I can pay for it."

Patrick tried to comfort Hobart with his words of the nature of a businessman, "Mr. Smith, why do you have to do this? Your products are sold on my platform. It's win-win cooperation but why do you want both of us to suffer?"

Hobart turned a deaf ear to that and insisted, "As I said, ask Amelia to apologise to me! Otherwise, I will not only withdraw your business, but also sue her for intentional injury!"

Patrick loosened his tie and said casually, "Let's do this: We pay the import tariff for your goods sold by Roxxon in the upcoming three years as an apology to you?"

Hobart was extremely shocked. A few seconds later, he asked, "Have you ever calculated how much you will lose?"

Patrick smiled slightly and said, "As long as you're

happy."

In fact, the reason why he was this straightforward was partly that he didn't want to lose such a powerful partner as Mills. As for Amelia... she wasn't so important as to make him sacrifice this much!

Hearing the huge profits, Hobart's mind calmed down a lot. He thought that it was extravagant to exchange an apology with $7 million. Unexpectedly, Patrick was crazier than him!

His anger was gone and tried to figure out what Patrick really thought, "What if I insist on the apology?"

The smile on Patrick's face disappeared, replaced by a powerful and frightening force. He said, "Mr. Smith, you know who my grandfather is?"

Hobart curled his lips and said, "I've long heard that Mr. Hopper is a capable general in the central government. He held an important position when he was young. But he's retired."
