Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 726

Kaleb and the rest quietly looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.

Amelia was playing dumb just to toy them around in the end!

From the beginning, they were deceived by Amelia's remiss. And when paired with Ryker's watchful eyes and ears, they were even more at ease.

But later... Amelia had just turned the tables on them with the project in the east. They had already lost the initial chance of sabotage before realizing it!

Swallowing the bitterness on his tongue, Kaleb then pretended to be eager and asked, "President Ramsay... Is there anything you need us to do at the moment?"

Amelia replied without thinking, "There's nothing for the time being."

"Nothing?!" Kaleb and others were appalled.

Amelia nodded and said, "Yes. We have yet to receive the final approval, so I dare not guarantee to you guys that the government will choose to work with us. To avoid anybody's effort going to waste, everyone should return to their duties for now. I'll inform everyone again if help is needed."

Listening to her...

Amelia had all of the authority in her hands. Whatever she said, they had to listen to it, and there was no room for complaints at all!

Knock, knock, knock.

"Ah! It must be Assistant Ryker!"

Amelia regained her spirit when hearing the knock from the door. She then rushed towards it in a hurry and pulled it open.

Indeed, it was Ryker standing outside the door.

Noticing the six steaming cups of coffee on a tray in his hands, Amelia praised him in keenness, "Assistant Ryker is as effective as usual! Come in quick, don't let Uncle Kaleb and the others wait up."

"Hmm," Ryker replied weakly. Actually, he was pacing around at the door for a long time, all because he was afraid to come in and face this nightmare of a scene...

Kaleb's displeased eyes fell on Ryker. "Is the coffee made by Assistant Ryker himself? I have to taste it! Bring it to me!"

"Okay!" In the face of Kaleb's orders, Ryker was obedient as a puppy, almost wagging his tail behind him.

With her back to Kaleb, a trace of coldness flashed in Amelia's eyes. Did Kaleb just bypassed her and gave orders to Ryker directly? He was treating her as non-existent at this point!

However, Kaleb actually did not do it on purpose this time.

It was just that as soon as he saw Ryker, the ball of fire ignited wilder in his heart. If he did not vent his anger on Ryker right then, he would feel ill at ease!

Amelia then shut the door and heard Kaleb curses ringing from behind her. "Urgh! What kind of coffee did you make? Did you make this with dog's sh*t?"

Ryker remained silent, dipping his head low and dared not to say a word.

Kaleb then continued to scold, "You useless junk! You can't even make coffee, so do you deserve to serve President Ramsay? From now on, you're assigned to the warehouse to file reports!"

"Mr. Ramsay, you!" Ryker immediately raised his head, his face full of shock and outrage.

To be assigned to a place like the warehouse meant that he was not regarded as someone with importance. Did he belong there?

After all, he was a graduate of a well-known university and had many years of work experience! "What's with your attitude? I'm already generous by letting you stay in the company! Are you going to do it or not? If you don't, then get lost!" Kaleb was

forcing Rykerto resign on his own initiative!

Gritting his teeth, Ryker then threw a glance at Amelia and asked, "President Ramsay, are you also driving me away?"

Amelia looked confused at what was happening. "No. Why would I kick you out? You didn't do anything wrong."

With that, Kaleb then continued with an impartial face, "President Ramsay, though Assistant Ryker didn't do anything wrong, he's of little help to you! He should've accompanied you to attend such an event as the tender meeting yesterday. But in the end, he had to trouble Director Tucker. That was a dereliction of duty on his part!"

Amelia then stammered, "But..."

Kaleb interjected at once, "Since he's failed his duty, he'll have to be punished! President Ramsay, don't break the rules that the company has set for years!"
