Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 655

D*mn it!

The pitiful expression on Amelia was as if she was greatly wronged.

But it was her who turned him down over and over again! It was only because of her that he stormed away from home and spent a night outside alone in the hotel!

Since when did Patrick have to compromise with her upsetting himself so much?

Yet at this moment, with just a few words, Amelia already was in such a state of aggrievement that she was about to break down into tears any time. As for him, he was not even upset yet!

Putting back on a straight face, Patrick coldly told her the suggestion that had been lingering on his mind for a long time. "Instead of staying up late to plan a proposal, why don't you take some notes on how you can be a better wife? And as soon as I'm satisfied, I can introduce a few cases with the big shots to you... and be done with this once and for all."

Amelia knitted her brows together.

She knew Patrick would not give her any solid, good

advice.

In short, he was suggesting that when men use their brains to do business, women should do business with their bodies instead.

Blinking away the disappointment out from the corner of her eyes, Amelia looked up at his seemingly all-knowing handsome face and said placidly, "Okay, I'll remember your advice. Can you leave now?"

"No!" Patrick's eyes constricted and locked on his prey, "If you really do remember, you should be pulling me in with you now, not pushing me away."

The implication in his words was heavily and strongly self-evident.

Amelia merely glanced at the desk in response and saw that the laptop was still on. If she invited Patrick to come in, no doubt the project on the eastern zone would be exposed.

She could not count on him for help. And at the same time, she was afraid he would cause trouble for her at the most critical moment. After all, he could easily destroy her chances with the few sponsors that she was about to get the moment the tiniest dispute broke out between them.

And Apex Construction Corporation had to get their hands on the project on the east side in the shortest time!

She could not afford to make any mistakes just because of Patrick's personal needs!

After making up her mind, Amelia turned her head back and told grievously to the man who was casting suggestive looks at her by the door, "Let's do it another day. I'm busy now."

Patrick was more than a head taller than her, and his eyesight was good too. Naturally, the scene of her messy desktop and opened laptop all came into his line of vision.

She was very busy indeed, and he was fully aware of this.

However, it was precisely because of this reason that made him feel so annoyed.

Because what this showed was that Amelia's eyes were truly puffed up because of business, not because he did not return home.

Amelia's heart missed a beat when she noticed that Patrick's eyes were glued to her desk behind her. She shifted on her feet in guilty conscience and stood in front of Patrick for fear of him finding out something he should not.

"Can you leave now? I really have to get back to work." She repeated her request to be safe.

Patrick lowered his ominous gaze and fixated on Amelia's nervous face. He grumbled dangerously,

"Looks like you still don't understand what I'm saying."

Amelia put on a softer tone and coaxed, "I know, you want me to sleep with you tonight, then you'll introduce some clients to me, right? But I have something more important on my hand now, so can we do it another day?"
