Chapter 113
In the sales department.
As soon as Amelia approached the door, she heard people in the department chattering about what had happened. They were talking about Hobart and her.
colleague A, "I just took a video. I'm wondering if I should upload it to the company's forum so that the absent colleagues can see it."
colleague B, "Yeah, it's more joyful to watch it together..."
Amelia didn't everyone to know this matter, so she pushed the door open in a hurry and walked in. She said, "Please delete the video. Let's take it as a joke made by Hobart on Fool's Day."
One of her colleagues said with a smile, "Madam Amelia Ramsay, I won't delete it. I want to show my husband this video so that he can be ashamed. He never confessed his love to me like this."
Some colleagues agreed with her.
Just as Amelia was in a headache and didn't know what to do, the speaker above her head rang. Patrick's secretary said, "Please pay attention, everyone. Delete the video about Hobart within 30 seconds, or you'll have to bear the consequences."
Then some timid people deleted the video without any reason.
Some of them muttered, "The consequences? I just took a video! What consequences do I have to bear?
Hobart allowed me to take the video!"
However, surveillance cameras in every department had already shot the ones who had taken videos.
The secretary said gain,"Those who're unwilling to delete the video, your bonus this month have been deducted."
Those employees who had their bonuses deducted listened to the secretary's cold words in horror. "Those who're still unwilling to delete the video, your half- year bonus and year- end bonus will be deducted. Mr. Hopper said that people who have no positive effect on our company's development will all be dismissed!"
Patrick's method was very effective. No one wanted to go against his own future. What's more, the video was not very important. They just wanted to watch it for pleasure.
So, they deleted the video one after another...
Except for one person!
Cynthia held her mobile phone tightly. She recorded this video through the window in the female toilet, so no one knew that she had the video. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
A brilliant idea suddenly came to her mind. She wanted to send this video to Eve.
Amelia and Eve forced her to leave Patrick by all means. She wanted to fight back.
In the end, impulse defeated reason. Cynthia left the company in a hurry, bought a new phone card nearby and sent the video to Eve with this phone umber.
After sending the message, Cynthia removed the phone card nervously and excitedly, threw it into the trash can outside, and then came back to the company.
In the sales department.
After all the videos were deleted, Amelia let out a sigh of relief.
No one suspect the relationship between her and Patrick. On the one hand, Patrick asked them to delete the videos for the company. On the other hand, she and Patrick seldom spoke to each other in the company.
Therefore, the employees all thought that Mr. Hopper was not dealing with a personal matter.
Amelia came to the corner by the window and sent a text message to Patrick to thank him.
In less than two seconds, her phone rang. She immediately looked at her phone, only to find that it was not Patrick, but Daniel.
She answered the phone and heard Daniel's voice, "Amelia, how's the project going?"
Amelia said blandly, "Patrick won't help you. You'd better give up."
Daniel asked anxiously, "Why?"
"Daniel, there are many hidden dangers in that land. Why didn't you tell me the truth?"
Daniel smiled causally and said, "Amelia, those hidden dangers are problems for you, but I can solve them easily. This project is very important to Apex Construction Corporation. It must be enforced!"
Amelia's voice turned completely cold, "Then do it by yourself! Bye!"
"Wait!" Daniel stopped Amelia in time and asked coldly, "Do you think that I won't be able to do this without you and Patrick?"
Feeling Daniel's conceit, Amelia said calmly, "Daniel, we are not young and naive. Don't you feel ashamed to say something malicious to threaten people when you're refused?"
After a while, Daniel's exasperated voice came from the phone, "Amelia, just wait and see!"

A day passed in a hurry. Amelia came back home by electric motorcar. As soon as she opened the door with the key, she was slapped in the face.
"Pa!"
The sound was clear and loud.
Amelia turned her face in disbelief and looked at Eve. She didn't know why Eve was so angry.
She suppressed her anger and asked, "Mom, why did you hit me?"
Eve rubbed her wrist as if she hadn't vented her anger completely. She pointed at the tip of Amelia's nose and scolded, "Amelia, you use such a pitiful appearance to seduce men everywhere, right?"
Amelia frowned and asked, "Mom, what... did you say?"
Eve showed the video on her mobile phone to Amelia and said angrily, "Can you explain this?"
Amelia narrowed her eyes with confusion. Patrick had already asked people in the company to delete the video, why Eve had the video?
"Mom, where did you get this video?"
"It's none of your business! Now I just want to know in which car is your lover and when you started to have a relationship with him. What have you done with each other?"
Seeing that someone nearby was looking at them, Amelia whispered to Eve, "Mom, let's go in and talk about it."
Eve straightened her back and said coldly, "If I don't let you in, will you punch me again? Neighbors here are all my witnesses."
Patrick parked his car at the door. Then he saw Amelia whose head was lowered.
She was scolded again!
Patrick pursed his lips, opened the car door, walked to them slowly and said, "Mom, I'm back."
Hearing Patrick's voice, Amelia raised her head and turned around to look at him. The calm smile on Patrick's face made her inexplicably feel at ease. She indicated him with her eyes, "Help me."
She was not sure if Patrick knew what she meant.
After glancing at her face, Patrick frowned, as if he was very unpleasant.
