When the waiter heard it, he thought it made sense too. So he said, "Please wait for a moment." Then he turned and went to act as asked.
The next second, Amelia opened the menu, put it in front of Kaiden and said, "Feel free to order as you like. I'll pay the bill."
Kaiden's sour face finally brightened up. He raised his index finger and kept pointing at the menu, trying to pick some of the most expensive dishes in the restaurant.
However, Amelia's heart was already numb. The photos of Patrick and the woman in red heels had embarrassed her at the auction...
As a result, no matter how expensive the dishes that Kaiden would order, it would not make her heart ached.
When Kaiden noticed this, he leaned closer to her. Her amber-colored pupils reflected her absentminded face. "What are you thinking about?"
Amelia recovered from the shock and said lightly, "I'm thinking that you are actually Quartley's cousin. Can I considered to be lucky?" "It's not just lucky. As I purposely attend the auction because of you." Kaiden's thin lips curled slightly.
Amelia frowned with confusion and asked, "You're here for me?"
Kaiden tried to explain. "I have asked you on the phone before whether you would like to cooperate with me. However, you told me that I was not sincere. Didn't I come here today with sincerity? I just didn't expect that you were willing to tell the biggest lie in order to get the Eastern District Project. Thanks to me today otherwise you would lose your prestige and honesty in front of all your peers. What do you think?"
Amelia felt a chill on her back. She could not deny every word that Kaiden said.
Jonathan's heart was still fluttering with fear. "That's right. It's lucky that Mr. Kaiden is here today.
Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Amelia half closed her bright eyes and then asked in confusion, "Kaiden, why are you helping me?"
"I feel pity for you," said Kaiden, "The fact that your husband was hugging another woman on the street had indirectly affected your business. By the way, talking about Patrick, I want to know what are you going to do? "
"I don't want to talk about him for the time being."
Amelia replied.
Kaiden raised his delicate eyebrows. How could he not senses Amelia's coldness towards Patrick from her conversation?
But that was exactly what he wanted!
Jonathan hesitated for a moment and suddenly said to Kaiden, "Mr. Wright, I have to ask you a favor, but..."
Kaiden pretended to be respectful and said, "Mr. Tucker, feel free to tell me."
Jonathan nodded and said, "Now, President Ramsay has told everyone that Mr. Quartley is supporting Apex Construction Corporation. But in fact, we didn't, and you are exactly Mr. Quartley's favorite cousin. Is it possible for you to recommend Apex Construction Corporation to Mr. Quartley and let's see if he is willing to make this lie real?"
"Uncle Tucker..." Amelia called out to Jonathan in a complex tone.
It was all her fault! Her desire to win was triggered by the Patrick's scandal. That was why things had turned out like this!
Kaiden said without hesitation when he saw that Jonathan begged towards him and Amelia was really helpless, "Not a problem at all."
"Really?!" Jonathan's voice trembled with excitement.
Kaiden nodded and said, "I testified for President Ramsay in front of everyone was not because I was impulsive. In fact, not long ago I just mentioned Apex Construction Corporation to my cousin..."
Amelia looked at him nervously and asked, "What did Mr. Quartley says?"
Kaiden cleared his throat lightly and he talked like a boss, "I'm hungry."
Amelia quickly reacted. She waved her hand and called another waiter over. She ordered the dozen dishes that Kaiden had taken a fancy to at one time. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Then Kaiden felt satisfied. "You are a fast learner."
"Can you tell me now?" Amelia asked urgently.
"My cousin hasn't expressed his interest in Apex Construction Corporation yet." Kaiden said.
Amelia dropped her shoulders.
Kaiden suddenly changed the subject. "But all opportunities are created by people. I can agree to Mr. Tucker's request and find a time to introduce you to my cousin!"
Amelia's heart beat so fast at this moment. She could not believe that she had got such a good opportunity by accident!
At this moment, all her prejudice and doubt towards Kaiden was completely gone. She said with great joy, "Kaiden, you did me such a great favor. I really
don't know how to thank you!"
Kaiden saw that her pale face had finally turned a little red from happiness. He smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome."
Amelia really did not have to be polite to him. This was because one day he would get it back from her little by little!
After the meal.
Amelia and Jonathan stood in a row. Then they said to Kaiden who put one of his hand in his pocket, "Well return to the company first..."
While Amelia was saying goodbye to Kaiden, a Lamborghini stopped slowly not far away from them.
The woman in the car glanced at the theme restaurant's signboard with her beautiful eyes. Then she said to the man in the driver's seat excitedly, "Patrick, my student introduced this restaurant to me. I heard that the puffer fish here is handle in the cleanest and safest way in Northville. Let's go and try it...Patrick?"
Sissi noticed that she had been talking for a while but Patrick did not respond to her. She could not help but look at him only to see that his eyes were staring out from the window!
She subconsciously looked out of the window and saw Amelia standing at the restaurant's entrance!
Sissi saw an old man standing next to Amelia, and there was a young man opposite her. The young man was prettier than a girl. He was well dressed and his gestures was elegant.
Sissi suddenly felt jealous with Amelia. Back then, she was also used to being surrounded by countless admirers. Patrick was just one of them!
The reason that she chose Patrick at the end of the day because he was the best among those people!
Patrick felt a burning sensation in his heart when he saw Amelia talking happily with Kaiden and they both looked reluctant to leave. It almost drove him crazy!
Sissi saw his abnormal reaction but pretended that she did not recognize Amelia. "Who are you looking at? Why are you so focused?"
Patrick gritted his teeth. "I'm not looking at anyone!"
Sissi's pupils darkened. Why was he unwilling to tell her that the woman standing outside the restaurant was his wife?!
Did she not even have the right to know his personal affairs?
Sissi suppressed the disappointment in her heart.
She forced a smile and asked, "But why do I feel like you're looking at the beautiful woman not far away?"
Patrick tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He stared at Amelia's smiling face and answered without turning his head, "You're overthinking!"
