Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 987

At Roxxon Corporation, early in the morning.

The senior leaders were rushing to the battlefield one after another. Wait, no... They were actually reporting their work.

Since Patrick was furious in the morning meeting the previous day, a large number of the superiors who were reporting were put up on the spot. As far as the eye could see, there were lesser people attending the meeting.

To prevent misunderstanding, the higher-ups who were absent did not mean to humiliate Patrick in this way, it was just that they could not stand the pressure and fell ill. So, they had to ask for sick leave.

The other directors who did not apply for sick leave would not mean that they would be able to stick to the end as well. If they suffered a heavy blow from Patrick again today, they would probably fall gloriously.

Just like the man who had finished presenting his proposal at this time, he swallowed and complained in his heart. If Mr. Hopper was still silent, his little heart would explode!

After a while...

The secretary standing behind Patrick took a step forward and carefully reminded him, "Mr. Hopper, is there also something wrong with the director's proposal?"

The reason she used the word "also" was because this director was beacause one of the heroes who had been criticized by Patrick yesterday but had not yet fallen.

"U...b...e...r."

Patrick, who had been well known by the higher-ups as being very meticulous when working, typed these words out forcefully with his ten fingers after being reminded by the secretary.

So the secretary went silent.

The senior leaders also kept silent.

Since there were many details to discuss during the meeting, Patrick would often use all the Id-disks provided by each department or project the documents. Videos and so onto the big screen behind him. So that everyone present could view the data.

Every pair of eyes on the scene had seen Patrick look up the word "Uber" on Google at this moment. What else could the secretary and the senior leaders say?

They could not openly discuss whether something was indeed not quite right with Patrick's brain at this point, could they?

At this time of crisis, the secretary displayed her loyalty to her master.

She retreated to the corner of the wall, raised her high-heeled shoes and gave a kick, and then she loosened the switch connecting the computer and the projector.

The screen darkened, and the presupposition that there was something "not quite right" with Patrick's brain had also thus disappeared.

Great. The secretary breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, she raised her delicate chin and glanced around the upper levels of the room.

The senior leaders all nodded with understanding, indicating that they did not see anything.

After the meeting.

The secretary held the document in one hand and the laptop used by Patrick for the conference in the other. She hurriedly chased after him.

After the they have left, the directors in the conference room took a breath of relief one after another. They talked about Mr. Hopper, and although he said few words and seemed to not know what he was thinking, at least he did not deny their efforts as he did yesterday, which already proved a great blessing in misfortune!

On the other hand...

Returning to the office, Patrick accidentally glanced over and realized that his secretary was looking at him with concern.

Squinting, he asked with a tired tone, "Is your expression showing that you're too bored? So that you're hoping for more work?"

Upon hearing this, the secretary was shocked. "Mr. Hopper, how can you repay someone's help with evil!"

Noticing that Patrick was in a hurry to surf the net, the secretary could not help but ask, "Mr. Hopper, I saw you searching for some...urn...data from other industries during the meeting just now?"

Heaven knew how difficult it was to think of a reasonable topic to ask Patrick about!

But the secretary did it!

On the contrary, Patrick did not get angry. He solemnly replied, "Sort of."

"Wh-what?" It was the secretary's turn now to be shocked.

She did not expect that Mr. Hopper would apparently want to know about a common cabbing app which was Uber.

Keeping in mind that Roxxon Corporation had been doing high-end brand imports and exports all the time!

Patrick's secretary looked like she really wanted to discuss something with him, so he decided to use her to understand what he actually wanted to know.

"Have you ever heard of Uber?"

The secretary nodded. "I've heard of it, and had used it. What do you intend to know about it?"

Patrick asked cheerfully, "I know it's a cellphone app, but please teach me how to operate it. Be more detailed."

The secretary was brief. "Actually, it's the same as ordering takeout. Mr. Hopper, please give me a moment..."

The secretary fished out her mobile phone from her suit pocket and clicked into the Uber app.

Next, she turned the phone screen around and placed it in front of Patrick. She tried her best to introduce and explain the app to him while doing so.
