Right at this moment, Amelia's office door was knocked on again. Amelia closed the Amazon tab and crossed her fingers against her chin, she then said, "Come in."
The person who came in was Audrey.
When she saw that there was no one else in the office except Amelia, Audrey's tensed expression relaxed and returned to normal.
She did not expect the two devils would be gone after she came back from a toilet break. Next time, if any of them visited Amelia, she should take a toilet break to avoid being disturbed and tensed up by them.
While she was thinking, Amelia asked, "Audrey. Is there another guest?"
After regaining her composure, she shook his head and said, "No, President Ramsay. This time it's your turn to visit another investor, Mr. Hugh. We made an appointment with his secretary last Friday. Do you remember about it?"
All of a sudden, things cleared up for Amelia.
Because she had pissed off Kaiden at the restaurant last time, the meeting with the Quartley had also
been postponed.
Amelia had no choice but to make contact with other investors. She could not delay the entire process of Apex Construction Corporation just because of Sawyer.
It was not easy for her to persuade
Mr. Campbell Hugh to meet her this week but she did not expect Kaiden to come today and brought along some good news.
However, she would not be too proud of herself just because Sawyer had agreed to meet her.
She had to fight for the investment from Sawyer and Mr. Hugh too.
Once the theme park project started, the Apex Construction Corporation would need as much funds as they could have!
Amelia straightened up and said to Audrey, "Go and get ready. Get Uncle Tucker to come along with us to meet Mr. Hugh too."
At eight o'clock in the evening.
Since it was a social engagement, a meal and some recreational activity could not be avoided. It was almost an unspoken rule.
When Amelia and Audrey were taken out of the dining hall by Jonathan, both of them were
exhausted.
Especially Audrey!
"President Ramsay... Director Tucker... Ugh... Please excuse me!"
As Audrey was being supported by Jonathan, she broke free from his hand and ran to the nearest trash can to throw up.
Among the three, Amelia was the clear-headed one. She turned to Jonathan and said, "Uncle Tucker, you should take a rest in the car first. Don't worry, I'll take care of Audrey."
Jonathan stared at Amelia and nodded along with a reply 'sure'. He then took the key, unlocked the car and went into it.
Amelia turned around and walked towards Audrey who was holding on to a pole while vomiting.
After a while, Amelia helped Audrey to clean herself up and took her back to the car.
Seeing that Jonathan and Audrey were both dead drunk, Amelia changed her seat with Jonathan and volunteered to drive.
"How can I let you do that." Jonathan replied.
Amelia tried to persuade him. "Uncle Tucker, it's not good for you to drive while you are tired, besides, there would be operations carried out by the traffic police at this route around this hours."
"Alright then." Jonathan reluctantly agreed.
On the way, Amelia looked at Jonathan and Audrey through the rearview mirror.
At the banquet, they really warded off a lot of wine for her. Therefore, she was fine but the two of them really suffered a lot.
What was gratifying was that they had secured the investment. So their hard work these few days was not in vain.
