With a cold look in his eyes, Patrick deliberately avoided touching her and said coldly, "Go ahead."
Amelia's pretty face heaved a sigh since she really didn't know how to "make him happy".
Seeing the innocent look on Amelia's face, Patrick really wanted to lie her down and eat her, but he tried his best to remain calm and said, "Unbutton my shirt. You can do this, right?"
Amelia's ears buzzed. She raised her hand, which was hanging on her side, under Patrick's command, and put it on...
Realising that she could not unbutton one in ten seconds, Patrick sneered and said, "Mrs. Hopper's sincerity is so empty."
Amelia was a little annoyed and bit her red lip. She decided not to let him look down on her and sped up.
But the more anxious he was, the more shivering her fingertips were. But when she was rubbing his chest, the slight cold sensation on her fingertips made him feel like to "start a war".
He breathed heavily and ordered, "Kiss me."
Amelia looked at him with his trembling eyelashes. At this time, Patrick's eyes seemed to be dyed with beauty. It was so charming that it was unbelievable.
As if she had been bewitched, she leaned forward and kissed the corner of his eyes. She could clearly feel that his body had stiffened for a moment.
After the kiss, Amelia's head moved back a little and said sincerely, "You are so charming."
Charming?
When had this woman ever flattered him like this? It was all for the sake of that damn "ex-boyfriend"!
Thinking of this, Patrick pushed Amelia's small hands away and said with dark eyes, "Amelia, can you be more hypocritical?"
Amelia's smile froze.
"Or, you can do everything for Daniel's promotion?" Patrick asked.
It was not until this moment that Amelia realised that Patrick wasn't really asking her for a reward, but was just testing her.
She lowered her eyes in embarrassment. In order to make Patrick happy, she almost knelt on the ground, which made her look shameless.
But Patrick's eyes turned completely cold upon her face, which told that she couldn't refute.
He got up and went up to the second floor alone.
Face the silence of the living room, Amelia couldn't hold back and bursted into tears.
The next day, at Roxxon.
When she saw Amelia walking into the office, Doris immediately greeted "Ms. Amelia, Mills has been on the counter of our department store for some time. Would you like to follow up the turnover?"
Amelia listened quietly with the purple eye shadow,
looking magnificent. She said, "Okay."
At the moment when Amelia turned around, Doris said, "Ms. Amelia, your eye shadow looks so nice." Touching her swollen eyelids, Amelia smiled bitterly. If she had not been sleepless for the whole night, she might not have worn it.
At Roxxon department store.
The tall and beautiful woman glared at Amelia with hostility. She rubbed Hobart's shoulder with her slim wrist wrapped by a gold bracelet and asked, "Darling, shall we go? You promised me to buy me jewellery."
Hobart was only interested in teasing Amelia, so he did not have the mood to deal with her and said, "Wait a moment."
The tall beauty became more angry.
Amelia didn't want anyone to misunderstand her relationship with Hobart. Just as she was about to leave with an excuse, Hobart suddenly knocked on the counter and asked the shop assistant to bring out a set of skin care products.
Amelia recognised it was the latest of Mills.
There were toner, moisture lotion, cream and facial mask in the box, totalling $2,000, which was out of Amelia's budget.
She thought that Hobart wanted to make the tall beauty happy with the skincare products. However, Hobart handed it to Amelia and said, "It's for you. Both sides of your lips have been peeled off."
At first, Amelia refused, but Hobart had been disturbing her and she should have accepted his gift.
Therefore, Amelia accepted it and chuckled, saying, "Hobart, thank you. I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life."
Hobart felt so proud for being praised as no matter how arrogant a woman was, she wouldn't be able to resist his tenderness.
In a blink of an eye, Amelia put the box on the counter and said to the shop assistant, "Zoey, I will leave them here for sale. If there is any customer, please recommend to them and you'll get 80% of the sales, okay?"
After a moment of silence, Zoey immediately understood and agreed, "Sure!"
Hobart was stunned as Amelia "sold" the gift to Mills, which was given out by himself, the executive of Mills. There was no reason for him to suffer such a loss.
