Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 421

Mamie and Leslie exchanged a look with each other. One of them said, "You want us to build a good relationship with Mr. Hopper so that the PR can better perform next year and gain more financial support."

Mr. Reed nodded with satisfaction. "Good. Stop talking about it. Mr. Hopper is here."

Patrick stood still and asked, "Is everyone here?"

If they had paid attention to where he was standing, they would find that he and Amelia were shoulder to shoulder.

But everyone's attention was on his face, so they all missed it.

At the garden restaurant.

Everyone was sitting around the table. Leslie dangled the crab's claw in front of Patrick and said vulnerability, "Mr. Hopper, it is too hard for me to open."

Sitting opposite Patrick, Amelia watched them silently.

Patrick remained unmoved and said to Leslie, "Too hard? Don't eat it then."

Well done! Amelia gave a praise to Patrick inwardly!

"Oh..." Leslie put down the crab. According to what normal people would do, shouldn't Patrick handle it for her like a gentleman? Why didn't he follow her plan?

Sitting on the other side of Patrick, Mamie looked at Leslie with disdain and talked to Patrick in a normal voice.

Without trying to please Patrick, Mamie got him talking several times, which reminded Leslie of her missteps.

As if she had gotten Patrick intrigued by mentioning something, the president looked at Mamie seriously. "Before you came to work for Roxxon, you taught junior high school?"

"Yes!" There was nostalgia in Mamie's eyes. "Sometimes, when I think of those lovely children, I do wish I could leave my work alone and go back to visit them."

Patrick said softly, "Looks like you love teaching very much."

Seeing that Patrick seemed to have good impressions of teachers, Mamie hurriedly exaggerated, "Well, I have said to myself many times that if I could be a teacher again, I will cultivate more good civilians for the society."

"Your idea... is admirable," Patrick commented sincerely.

At that, Mamie was so happy that she started to exaggerate her feelings even more.

Noticing the two in front of her had never stopped talking from the very beginning, Amelia emptied the wine Doris poured for her gloomily. Patrick didn't live up to her praise. She had just complimented him for being able to hold himself back in front of beautiful women, and then he showed his true color too soon.

Ms. Reed was rather satisfied with her subordinates. Mamie was always resourceful and better than Leslie, who only depended on her pretty face.

The meal was over at the second when Patrick put down his cutlery.

He looked at Amelia from a distance and said in an aloof tone, "Manager Ramsay, where should we go now?"

Manager Ramsay!

Hearing the address, Amelia had a strong impulse to jump into the chair and announce in front of everyone that she was Mrs. Hopper after work, instead of Manager Ramsay!

Doris found that Amelia seemed to be possessed. Amelia kept glaring at Patrick, having no idea what disaster it would bring to her and the

sales department.
