Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 96

Since the accident, Eve had become more sensitive. When Patrick seemed to reject her request, she got annoyed immediately and said, "No way! I require you to pick me personally!"

Patrick was in a panic. At the same time, Amelia's taxi had completely gone. He agreed sullenly and drove to the emergency center.

In a Chinese restaurant famous for spicy food, a cold-faced lady, led by a waiter, came to the man with a gentle smile and a pair of gold- rimmed glasses.

Amelia glanced at him. In his gentle and clear eyes, she sat opposite him with a poker face.

Daniel tried to break the ice and said, "My dear, I still remember you like spicy food most, so I reserved a table here. I hope you like it."

Amelia didn't seem to appreciate it and said, "Daniel, let's come straight to the point."

Daniel asked with some melancholy, "Aren't you tired of seeing me?"

Amelia snorted and said sarcastically, "Correct."

Daniel's fist tightened, but he quickly let it go and came to the point, "Apex is facing a strong competitor, which was just established like 5 years ago but seem to be paralleled with Apex. But recently, dad isn't in an ideal condition, and the young generation hasn't grown up to handle the issues arose. I have a big and potential project. If it is completed, Apex will pioneer the industry again."

Amelia asked straight, "What can I do for Apex?"

Talking to a person with high IQ saves a lot of time and energy. Compared to Amelia, Brittany was too young and naive.

Daniel looked at Amelia with appreciation and said, "Recently, we've bid a piece of land and I can get the human and material resources ready, but we're stuck by the government who hasn't issued the permit. You know, dad has never ingratiated himself with those government officials but it really matters. Thinking twice, I think Patrick is the only one who can help."

Amelia revealed his thought, "You want Patrick's grandfather to sort it out for you, isn't it?"

Patrick's grandfather had a high status in the central government. As long as he ordered, no one dared to refuse.

With his intentions revealed, Daniel simply nodded and said, "If he can, well succeed."

But Amelia seemed to reject this request and said, "Daniel, you think too highly of me. Patrick's grandfather isn't around in Northville currently. Even if he is, I dare not make such a request."

"Why?" Daniel asked.

Amelia explained, "First of all, you haven't told me where this land was, how large it is, any old residential area nearby and the residents may protest the demolition, etc. Secondly, since Apex is suffering a loss, how will you guarantee the capital? A debt will never work."

Daniel seemed to be in a deep thought for a while and said, "Don't worry. As long as dad still works, my plan will be reviewed and then approved by him."

Amelia's original intention was to test him but Daniel didn't dare to make any mistakes when George is sick.

Since George had approved, Amelia wouldn't disagree.

To be honest, Amelia didn't want to owe Patrick a favour, but when she thought of her mother's misery, she wouldn't want the excellence achieved by George to be broken, so she said, "I will talk to Patrick about this."
