Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 177

Patrick continued to ask, "Is it because of the capability of the company or because of Milton?"

Amelia didn't think too much and replied, "Both."

Patrick got a little annoyed when he heard her honest answer. He didn't except that Amelia actually admitted it so straightforwardly and didn't care about his feelings.

After thinking for a while, he said calmly, "Remember to give the self-critical letter of 10,000 words to my secretary before you get off work. Okay, the meeting is over now."

Amelia sensed something wrong and asked, "Wait a minute, didn't you say it's five thousand words?"

Patrick said slowly, "I don't think it's a big deal for you to write another five thousand words."

"But I..." Amelia opened her mouth.

Patrick said with a sneer, "Do you think that 10,000 words are too few? Would you like to add another five thousand words?"

Amelia couldn't say a word.

The other people in the conference room looked at each other. It was said that there was an ambiguous relationship between Mr. Hopper and Madam Amelia Ramsay, but they looked like enemies obviously!

The secretary stood behind Patrick's leather chair and looked at him with meaningful eyes.

"That night in Money Cabinet, Mr. Hopper was handcuffed at the bedside by Amelia, which was a big disgrace to him, so he tries his best to embarrass her in the name of work."

"It turns out that Mr. Hopper is coquettish in his heart. Oh, it sounds so cute."

Just as the secretary was lost in thought, Patrick suddenly looked at her and asked, "Miss?"

The secretary saw Patrick's unhappy eyes and shuddered.

"What are you thinking about? I've called you many times."

"Er, nothing." The secretary didn't dare say that she was imagining the scene that Patrick was tortured by Amelia. She quickly changed the topic and asked, "Mr. Hopper, what can I do for you?"

"During the meeting just now, I found that there was an empty seat."

The secretary also noticed that, "Meggie's father asked for leave."

Patrick didn't say anything, but his face turned cold.

In the sales department.

"Patrick, you despicable man! You abuse your power for personal gains!" Amelia was watering the clivia while cursing Patrick with her teeth gritted.

Doris passed by her and reminded her in a soft voice, "The clivia is almost drowned to death by you..."

It was only then that Amelia noticed that she almost emptied the watering can while she was cursing Patrick.

"Oh my god...” Looking at the clivia which was soaked in water, Amelia was at a loss. She could only invert the flowerpot and let the extra water flow out.

Her hands were full of mud and she was in a worse mood. It was all Patrick's fault. She blamed him for making her so unlucky.

She went back to her seat and looked at the computer in a daze. She really didn't know how to write a self-critical letter of 10,000 words.

In the afternoon.

When Amelia arrived at the 18th floor with heavy footsteps, the secretary waited for her for a long time and said, "Mr. Hopper has been waiting for your self-critical letter."

Amelia handed the self- critical letter to her in a hurry and said, "Have a look and treat it casually. Don't take it seriously."

The secretary said, "But Mr. Hopper said that he wants to see it himself."

Amelia was stunned. What was going on was different from what she had thought.
