"Thank you for missing me. I'm all right now."
Amelia was touched and grateful for having such a group of work partners, which was why she regarded Roxxon Corporation as an indispensable part of her life.
Lily was in a hurry to complete the plan, so she asked again, "By the way, about the advertising company..."
Amelia said, "Roxxon has a long partnership with Lintons Ads Company. Their credibility and efficiency are trustworthy. I will contact the leader of Lintons Ads Company some other time."
Doris said excitedly, "Nice! I can see Director Cook again!"
Amelia felt speechless.
In the hospital.
Before Patrick went to work, he decided to go to the hospital to visit Cynthia. Cynthia was sensitive, and she would think too much if he didn't go to see her for a long time.
Before entering the ward, he saw that the nurse maid was opening the window for Cynthia. The bright sunlight shone in, but Cynthia's eyes were still so gloomy.
Rat-a-tat—
Patrick raised his hand and knocked on the door door twice, indicating that he was there.
Cynthia turned around. When she saw him, she smiled and said, "You finally come to see me."
The nurse maid moved a chair for Patrick quickly and left because it seemed that they had something to talk about.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Patrick looked at Cynthia and felt that she had something on her mind, "If you are bored living here, I can apply to the hospital for you to raise a kitten or a dog."
"No, thanks." Cynthia lowered her head slightly and took the initiative to bring up the topic, "Yesterday... Your mother came to see me."
Patrick pursed his lips and waited for Cynthia to continue.
Cynthia took out the check for thirty million dollars under her pillow. Seeing that the expression in Patrick's eyes changed a little, she asked in a low voice, "Madam said that... I got injured because of you and you are very touched. You are willing to take care of me as your younger sister, right?"
"Yes." Patrick didn't love Cynthia, and he could only treat her as his younger sister.
Cynthia sniffed and said sadly, "Do you have no other feelings for me?"
"Yes." When Patrick took Cynthia away from the racing court, it was just for the sake of her father.
Cynthia closed her sad eyes and opened them with her body trembling after a long time, "Madam gave me this check as my family's living expenses, but she asked me... to leave you. What do you think I
should do?"
Patrick said rationally, "I think you should listen to her."
Cynthia's face was full of sadness. Her last hope was broken by Patrick personally.
Patrick said earnestly, "I don't mean to shirk responsibility. But now you need a more advanced medical team to help you recover. Do you understand?"
Cynthia said with tears in her eyes, "So, you're going to send me abroad. Leave Northville and leave you?"
"You're still young, and you have a bright future. Your life is not only about me." Patrick stared at her and discussed with her in an unprecedented serious tone, "I remember that you've been good at studying since you were a child. What's your major in college?"
"Clothing design."
Patrick encouraged her, "Then you should continue to learn it."
Cynthia looked at him in surprise and said, "Do you mean that I should recover first and then take up advanced studies?"
Patrick did not speak, but his expression had given her a positive answer.
He could give her everything except for love.
Cynthia was lost in thought. In fact, she had been thinking about it for a whole night before Patrick came to see her.
She understood that it was impossible for to be worthy of Patrick and win Eve's favor with her current status and strength.
What's more, she couldn't live on his sympathy forever. When he was no more sympathetic to her one day, she would have nothing left.
Thirty million dollars were enough to change her life. Her elder brother's legs needed to be recovered, and she needed to support her father. Only when she became rich and improved her living standard and social status, she could be closer to Patrick!
Cynthia's eyes gradually became determined. She wanted to fight for her happiness for the last time, "I am willing to follow Madam's arrangement. I'll go abroad for treatment and learning as soon as possible."
Cynthia's decision made Patrick feel relieved, "When you have your stitches removed, I will send you to America."
Cynthia smiled faintly and asked the question that she cared about the most, "Patrick, tell me the truth, do you fall in love with Amelia?"
Patrick couldn't help laughing, "Why do you suddenly mention her?"
"You don't tell me the answer because you've fallen in love with her?" Cynthia stared into Patrick's eyes.
"No!"
When he denied it, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he ignored it.
Cynthia smiled more meaningfully. Patrick did not fall in love with Amelia, which proved that she still had a chance. It was so good...
After leaving the hospital, Patrick went to the company immediately.
As soon as the secretary saw him, she immediately picked up the documents that needed to be signed and followed him into the office.
"Mr. Hopper, the National Day is coming soon. I've made a preliminary travel plan for the top managers. Would you like to have a look?"
Patrick stopped signing the document, "I forgot to tell you that I've decided to go to Latvia for the vacation this morning."
The secretary opened her mouth in surprise and said, "There are about two or three hundred top managers in our company. Will... it cost too much?"
Patrick raised his eyebrows, he didn't care about how much it would cost at all, "I heard that in the past few years, you went to the remote mountain areas to work
as volunteer teachers. Is that true?"
The secretary looked at him with a bitter expression and said, "Yes. When your uncle was taking charge of the company, he said that we have to recall our sufferings in the old society and contrast them with the happiness in the new, so that we can cherish our jobs more."
Patrick coughed lightly. He knew that his uncle arranged the vacation in that way just to save money. It was not a trip, but a maltreatment.
"I'll take it as compensation for all of you this year. Inform all the departments about it." "Okay!"
In the evening, in the sales department.
Before getting off work, Amelia received a call from the garage. Her electric motorcar had been repaired.
"Thank you. I'll go and get it later."
After that, she left the company happily and went to the bus station alone to wait for the bus.
Before the bus arrived, she saw a little boy running to her. The little boy looked around, then raised his head helplessly and said to her, "My mommy is missing... Can you help me find her?"
Amelia noticed that the little boy was carrying a big schoolbag on his back. She thought that he was lost after school, so she comforted him in a soft voice, "Don't worry. What does your mother look like?"
