Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 988

Patrick quickly understood.

In fact, it was not too hard of a concept to grasp.

He leaned against the back of his revolving chair, looking contemplative.

As the boss's personal assistant, upon noticing the expression on his face, Patrick's

secretary immediately asked him worriedly, "Mr. Hopper, what are you thinking about?"

Patrick glanced at her and asked, "Do you know who are the main stakeholders behind Northville's Uber service?"

"Well..." The secretary thought for a moment and replied, "I recall that there are two. If I research deeper, I'll be able to find them out for you."

Patrick said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

The secretary could not suppress her curiosity and asked, "Then what should I do afterwards, Mr. Hopper? Why do you want me to check up on this?"

Patrick seemed to think of something interesting. He curled his lips and answered her, "After that, I want you to submit my information and job application form to these driving centres.

Remember, before this afternoon, I want to get the

answer of being employed as a cab driver!"

The secretary felt that her hearing must have been broken. After a while, she came to her senses and ridiculed, "Mr Hopper, are you sure? You're our president. Why are you suddenly thinking of working as a cab driver?

Do you have something that is troubling you? Please don't keep it to yourself. Tell us and we'll solve it together!"

Patrick twitched the corner of his mouth and retorted, "Miss secretary, you can keep your over-excessive sympathy to yourself. It's not that something was troubling me, but that I just want to do something for her..."

Trailing at the end of Patrick's words was a hint of tenderness in his stony voice. The secretary instinctively knew that he was referring to Amelia.

At Apex Construction Corporation.

After Audrey left, Amelia and Jonathan were the only ones left in Amelia's office.

Amelia gestured for Jonathan to sit down and sounded, "Uncle Tucker, did someone from the Environmental Protection Bureau call you again today?"

Jonathan nodded. "Yes, regarding the matter of C

River. They had been trying to find a time to have dinner with you to further discuss about this issue. Of course, they were more inclined to come to the company to ask for forgiveness. But I managed to postpone their invitation."

Amelia smiled slightly and replied, "Uncle Tucker, why do I feel so relieved after hearing what you said? This is not the first time they have ever contacted me through you. You said that they are all leaders, and I managed to shake them up. I'm not sure whether this is a good or bad thing?"

Jonathan was still angry. "They are the ones who don't know what's good forthem! These mobs thought that if Kingston had their backs financially, they could join hands to cause trouble for us. But what they didn't know was that you and Mr. Hopper didn't have that bad of a marriage as the rumors mentioned. They have now reached a dead end, humph!"

Amelia muttered softly, "Uncle Tucker, since they are just a motley crew, you don't have to be angry with them anymore. It's not worth it."

"You're right." Jonathan replied and looked at Amelia with a smile. "In fact, if it weren't for this matter, how could the others know that Mr. Hopper cares about you so much? Am I right, President Ramsay?"

Looking into Jonathan's eyes, Amelia cried out in both embarrassment and annoyance, "Uncle Tucker!"

Jonathan was still sighing. "You don't have to even mention, Mr. Hopper's move was like a slap to Kingston's face. Kingston must still be very confused right now."

Amelia sighed and added on, "Most probably due to the expose of Patrick's affair in the governmental hall, which further led Kingston to think that Patrick had another lover in his heart, and naturally wouldn't stand up for me."
