Patrick responded, "I own the company. It's my decision whether to work or not."
Daniel smiled self-deprecating, "I almost forgot, you come from a wealthy family."
Patrick said to Daniel, "I heard that Apex Construction Corporation is not doing so well these days. Will you be too busy to develop the project and take care of Amelia's father? "
Daniel smiled slightly. "No, I rather think it's a kind of training for me. In that case, you inherited Roxxon Corporation when it was at its peak, so there are few opportunities for you to use your talent, right?"
Listening to their conversation all mocking each other, Amelia interrupted them, and coldly said to Daniel, "Can you put my dad's blouse back on before we talk?"
Daniel hesitated for a moment, then looked at her and said, "But his back hasn't been cleaned..."
Amelia said calmly, "Let me do it."
Daniel handed over the towel in her hand. Just when Amelia was about to take it, Daniel's hand suddenly loosened, and the towel was about to fall down between them.
Before the towel fell to the ground, Amelia grabbed it. At the same time, Daniel who was going to grab the towel grabbed her hand accidentally!
"Let go!"
"I'm sorry."
Facing Amelia's indifferent look, Daniel withdrew his hand in a gentlemanly manner.
Patrick watched their little antics with displeasure.
Seeing Amelia busy, Daniel volunteered, "I'll help you hold your dad."
"No need." Amelia said coldly, turning to look at Patrick, "Mr. Hopper, could you come over and do me a favor? My dad's a little heavy."
At that, Daniel felt a little disappointed, but he did not show any displeasure.
"No problem." Patrick walked towards her immediately.
Amelia made the right decision at this time. If she asked Daniel to help her, then the reaction of Patrick would not be as kind as it was now.
Daniel was like an outsider, unable to interfere at all. After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Amelia, do you need me to help you with the matter regarding your mother's mausoleum on Rosan Road?"
Amelia was shocked. She turned around and asked, "How did you know? Did Alice tell you?"
Daniel put on a sorrowful expression. "Have you forgotten? When I was in college, you once told me the address of your mother's mausoleum garden, this matter I have always remembered, some time ago I saw the news, said the mausoleum garden will soon be auctioned throughout the city, I would like to find an opportunity to ask you what you think about it."
Amelia was ready to say something when she suddenly felt Patrick's gaze. After taking a deep breath, she said to Daniel, "It's my business, so you shouldn't ask about it."
Daniel said, "That's a lot of money, so why don't I borrow Apex Construction Corporation's name and auction it for you?"
Patrick was surprisingly quiet at this moment, he wanted to hear if Amelia would accept Daniel's kind offer!
Amelia, unwilling to owe Daniel a favor, shook her fist and said, "If I say I'm willing to sell the portion of Apex Construction Corporation that belongs to me in exchange for..."
"Amelia!" Patrick interrupted her.
Amelia was so shocked that she stopped saying.
