Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 822

Amelia hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle Tucker, I've worked out a solution since two days ago, but..."

"Stop hesitating! Just tell me what you have in mind." Jonathan pressed on.

Amelia went straight to the point and said, "The Environmental Protection Bureau claimed that our restaurant disposed high levels of food waste, but in actual fact we didn't do that. However, there are indeed a lot of food residue floating on C River, so I think whoever framed our company must have secretly transported a lot of food waste into the river!"

"So, your plan is to..."

"I plan to place ambush along the river bank to find out if there're anyone suspicious. C River has a strong current due to the rapid flow of water everyday. If those culprits want to maintain the level of pollution in the river, they have to release food waste into the water on a regular basis. As long as we keep an eye on C River, it will not be long before the perpetrator turns up!"

"That's a great idea!" Jonathan agreed with Amalia's plan, but he was a little concerned. "President

Ramsay, we need a perfect plan, and we must strike first and strike hard! Firstly, we can't let the enemy get hold of our plan of action, and secondly, we mustn't catch the wrong person. Therefore, we need someone who is reliable, and must have good capturing ability. However, as of now I don't have any suitable candidates."

A glint flashed in Amelia's eyes. "I do have one!"

"Oh?" Jonathan asked excitedly, "Who is it?"

"The police!" Amelia exclaimed.

Jonathan gave a short ugly laugh and said, "I didn't expect that you would seek help from the police. Aren't you afraid that the person who framed us has colluded with the police in advance? Though it may not be possible, but it's better to be safe than sorry..."

Amelia said confidently, "Uncle Tucker, I understand your concern, but the police that I'm talking about is Patrick's elder brother, Owen Hopper! He is the best choice as I believe his character is good and trustworthy."

"Owen Hopper!" Jonathan slapped his forehead and said. "Look how forgetful I am! Yes, Owen is indeed the most suitable candidate. Why didn't I think of it just now?"

Amelia smiled slightly. "Let's wait no more, and I'll contact him right now. Uncle Tucker, do you have

anything else to say?"

Jonathan sounded very excited and said, "No! I just did not expect you would be able to come up with a solution all by your own. I...I'm very pleased!"

Amelia was happy to receive his compliment, but she was also a little sad at the same time. "Uncle Tucker, thank you for your assistance all the time. I would have given up long time ago if you hadn't been in the company. I truly appreciate your guidance."

After comforting Jonathan, Amelia hung up the phone and called Owen immediately.

"Amelia?" Owen sounded surprise as he had not expected Amelia would contact him.

Amelia got right to the point and said, "Owen, I need a favor from you."

Owen agreed and so Amelia told him everything that had happened, including the Environmental Protection Bureau's investigation, and also the fact that she and Jonathan suspected that the Apex Construction Corporation was framed.

Finally, she said bluntly, "Owen, can you assign some of your staff to help me? Since you and your team are the expert in handling thugs!"

Owen went silent for a moment. "Amelia, your problem is my problem. Let me know when do you

want us to take action?"

Amelia wanted to answer 'tonight', but she felt that it was too rude to say so, and so she decided to beat around the bush and say, "We shall do it whenever you are available."

Owen could not help but chuckled lightly, and it made Amelia's face turned red instantly.

She felt embarrassed that Owen must have read her mind and laughed at her.

Owen quickly replied, "We'll do it tonight then."

Amelia was elated upon hearing his response and thanked him, "Owen, you are the best! Ever since I came to the Hopper Family, both you and Nora have helped me a lot. I don't know how to thank you!"

She had been framed and arrested for possessing drugs at the nightclub, and it was Owen who had got her out from the detention center. Also, when Patrick had abandoned her in the Hopper Family's parking lot, it was also Owen and Nora who had kindly taken her in...

Although Amelia did not outright express her gratitude, deep down she was very grateful towards Owen and Nora who were not related by blood to her at all.

She felt particularly heartwarming especially when Owen treated her problem as an urgent priority at

this moment.

At times, she really doubted whether Owen and Patrick were blood brothers, because one was honorable and wise, while the other was halfhearted-

While Amelia was lost in her thoughts, Owen said, "Amelia, if you really want to repay me, you might as well promise me one thing."

"Yes sure, please go ahead!" Amelia said without hesitation.

She was willing to do anything, even if Owen asked her to parade around Northville on a pig for three laps.

Owen said, "You should go home."

Amelia froze at his request. She then played possum and said, "I don't get what you mean Owen. I'm at home now."

However, the home she was referring to belonged to The Ramsay Family.

Owen said leisurely, "I already know that Patrick and you are living separately. Amelia, I hope you'll take my advice. The Land of Fragrance is your only home."

Amelia did not bother to ask Owen how he knew about it. There was nothing in the world that The Hopper Family did not know about!

"To be honest Owen, I..." Amelia twitched her lips. Just as she was about to open up and share her feelings, Owen's words stopped her.

"I don't care what happened between you and Patrick, I just want to exchange terms with you. My team and I will help to clear the name of Apex Construction Corporation, in return, you will go back to Patrick. Of course, even if you don't agree, I will still help your company as a matter of fact. Anyway I'm not forcing you to accept the terms, but I hope you will think about it."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched as she went speechless. Owen had put her in a position that it was impossible for her to reject his offer.

He had helped her countless times without expecting anything in return. And right this moment, his only request was for her to go home. She would seem ruthless if she rejected his request.

The clock was ticking, and she had to make a decision soonest possible.

Amelia said solemnly, "I will go back, but it's not because of Patrick. The only reason for me to do this is to repay your kindness, and I can't guarantee that I won't leave again."

As long as the issue of Huxton was not resolved, she would not reconcile with Patrick!
