Chapter 44
Gurgle—
When Patrick's desire was about to burst out, the water in the steam pot was boiling with the vapour splashing out. Seeing this, Amelia got so anxious that she struggled and screamed, "Let go of me! Or the kitchen will be on fire!"
With some general knowledge of safety, Patrick lifted the lid with one hand and the vapour was quickly inhaled by the ventilator.
Seeing this, Amelia felt helpless. She had thought that Patrick would escape from the kitchen, but he was quite calm.
With the buttons unbuttoned, she could only be blocked on the kitchen table and got exhausted after the "exercise".
★
Rejecting Patrick's intention of bathing together, before he stretched out his "wolf claws", Amelia quickly closed the door and finally twisted the door bolt, worried that he might come in.
Embarrassed, Patrick was not angry at all. Instead, he licked his lips in a good mood and showed in another bathroom.
Looking into the mirror, Patrick found finger stretching traces on his back. He clearly knew that Amelia loved him so much, but he should be nice to her?
It was not enough to have sex in the kitchen. He pulled the weak Amelia to the sofa in the living room and had one more.
The space of the small sofa was limited, so it was still hard for the petite girl to nest in, not to mention his long arms and legs. But when he was in a strong mood, he couldn't stop until she got exhausted.
In the bathroom of the master bedroom, Amelia rubbed the bubbles on her body and recalled that Patrick ejaculated twice externally, which meant she didn't have to take the contraceptive pills.
She raised her lips in a self-deprecating way and the water washed away her body with purple and green prints. She was thinking, why could people always do the most intimate things with the person they didn't love, just like her and Patrick
At Roxxon.
Entered into the office, Amelia happened to meet her colleagues.
Doris, who was immersed in reading the text message, made a "wow" sound. When she looked up, she noticed Amelia in front of her and asked curiously, "My dear, you haven't recovered yet? Why are you in such a heavy coat?"
Amelia pulled up her collar. This day, she was in long-sleeved shirts and trousers. It was hot. People would think she was crazy.
Amelia looked uneasy and Doris suddenly noticed a kiss mark on her neck, asking, "What's that? My dear, that's a kiss mark, not bitten by Mosquito, right."
Amelia stared at her with beautiful eyes and said, "My dear, if you had been this clever in your work,
you would have been promoted!"
"So, this is true?" Doris put her finger tips on her jaw and guessed, "You were 'bitten' by Mr. Cook? I understand. We can feel that he is interested in you."
Uneasy with this, Amelia changed the topic immediately, "I saw you addicted in the text message. Any progress in blind date?"
Doris smiled and said, "He's good and I think I can develop the relationship with him."
Amelia felt pity for her as the couples who fell in love with each other at first sight usually wouldn't have a happy ending and love needed to be cultivated. A few weeks ago, she heard that Doris complained the appearance of the men she met in the blind date but now she fell into the relations.
Doris was a true gossip girl and quickly changed the topic to Amelia, "Madam, have you heard that after work yesterday, Mr. Hopper had dinner with a female employee from logistics department at a small restaurant nearby.
"I saw it too. The girl seems to be new here?" Amelia asked with uncertainty. After all, she was not from the logistics department and she didn't remember it clearly.
"Yep, she is new here! She just reported to work this week. It is said that she is test and interview exempted. Although it was just a Mickey Mouse job, it was not easy to be employed by Roxxon. Each employee has to pass a series of tests and interviews."
Amelia asked, "What's her name?"
Doris answered, "Cynthia, a beautiful name, isn't it? It sounds literary and artistic. Maybe successful elites like it."
Amelia was hesitating at first, but now she was completely sure and really couldn't excuse for Patrick. Cynthia waited for him outside his office with his suit jacket in her arms; Patrick said that he wouldn't go home for dinner because he had to meet his clients, but in fact, he spent the dinner time with Cynthia.
On the 18th floor, President's office.
Lily Seth, the Manager of Sales Department, was discussing the problem of the essential oil with Patrick. She said, "Boss, the essential oil that our agent IDG sold has been removed and the sales overseas are also stopped. But we've got too many in the stock and the stock is not big enough to accommodate all of them. Do you think we should deliver the products to IDG?"
"Yes. By the way, also send the test data with lead mercury in the essential oil, so that they won't pass the buck." Patrick stressed.
Lily nodded and said, "IDG felt sorry for this and guaranteed their strong willingness for the cooperation next time..."
Patrick knew what Lily was going to say and said, "No, we won't buy their products again. No matter how high the bonus is, we can't accept it. This time, not only did we loss a lot, but also implicated our reputation, which is totally beyond compensation."
Hearing this, Lily appreciated her boss's wisdom and asked, "Then, who do you want to appoint to sort this out on behalf of us?"
The containers of the essential oil were all fragile and IDG was far from Northville, so they were very likely to be damaged during the long- distance transportation. In order to avoid dispute upon handover, the representatives from Roxxon and IDG should be present, opening the containers and checking the package. The payment would't be made and the goods wouldn't be handed over until the packages were checked.
Patrick said faintly, "It's up to you. I trust you'll handle it well."
Lily said, "Okay, I've got it."
When Lily was about to leave Patrick's office, Patrick seemed to think up something and called her, "Ms. Seth!"
Lily answered, "Yes, sir?"
Patrick asked, "Amelia Ramsay... is in your department?"
Lily answered, "Yes, she is."
Patrick said as usual, "I heard that her performance is outstanding, so I want to know about her daily work."
At the end of her brief introduction, she said earnestly, "Amelia has been working with us for three years and has been elected as Outstanding Employee for two years. Sometimes, I think she is too hard-working."
Patrick unconsciously frowned and said, "We are a big company with high welfare and talents. It's not necessary to assign a staff two jobs. If our rivals hear about it, they would castigate us treating our employees harshly."
Lily felt innocent and said, "Sir, to be honest, Amelia has been promoted to a supervisor now. No one in the department except me can assign her any job. It's easy for her to go slow, but she never takes her preferential treatment for granted but works even harder!"
"Well, reduce her workload in the upcoming weeks." Patrick was worried about Amelia's health. However he didn't realise that he forced her to do an "energyconsuming" job in the morning. He continued asking, "By the way, when is the staff's health examination?"
Lily answered, "It's usually in every September."
After Lily left, Patrick called his secretary and said, "Contact our partnered hospital and change the frequency of health examination from yearly to every six months."
Hanging up the phone, the secretary felt that this cost was not worth of it. But on her second thought, the boss was considerate of their health. Thinking of this, the secretary appreciated her generous boss!
It was 6pm at Sales Department.
Finishing the whole day's work, Amelia stretched and rode to the beauty salon where Patrick had once taken her to.
Coincidentally, Nora Hopper was there. Considering that Nora was the owner of this beauty salon, Amelia didn't feel surprised. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Handing over the guests to her assistant, Nora warmly asked Amelia, "My dear, do you want to have your hair styled?" "Yep, I'll attend a party tonight. Sister-in-law, is Alisa around?" Amelia was impressed by the skills of Alisa.
Nora answered, "Yes, she is around. But currently she is with a guest. Come to the lounge with me. I haven't seen you for a long time and let's chat."
