Chapter 62
Amelia could do nothing but laughed helplessly, saying with a rare sense of guilt, "Well... All these are just planned. Yep, planned..." She stressed. Patrick said, "In other words, if there is a chance, you will definitely put your plans into action?"
Amelia compromised with a stretch and a yawn, trying to avoid him, saying, "I'm so sleepy. Let me go to bed..."
Seeing Patrick looking at her with a faint smile, as if she were a clown with poor performance, she really wanted to pounce on him and bite him. Knowing that she was in a bad mood, Patrick suddenly thought and said, "When we are done with the current work, let's go for a travel."
Amelia agreed indifferently, thinking that he hardly ever honoured his promises.
The next day, in the CEO's office.
After the IDG essential oil was recalled from the department store, Patrick had the Mills products displayed where IDG was.
The secretary agreed and said, "Yes Sir, let me have it done right now."
The next second, someone directly pushed the door and came in. It was Charles, whom he hadn't seen for long.
Patrick smiled and said, "Hey bro, how have you been?"
Charles was a famous playboy in the circle. He was the youngest in his family and he was spoiled by his sister and brother, so he could do whatever he wanted.
But no one expected him to be a playboy.
Facing Patrick's teasing, Charles stressed his tie with revenge and exclaimed, "The bright yellow tie? When did Second Young Master of the Hopper, who has been indifferent, become this coquettish?" Patrick slapped his hand away and said, "Tell me, what are you up to?."
Charles sat down and took a sip of the tea served by the secretary, saying, "Well, there will be a high school classmate meeting tonight. Wanna join us?"
Patrick asked thoughtfully, "Will the teachers be there?"
Charles asked recklessly, "Which teacher? Mr. Wallace?"
The surname made Patrick have feel complicated. He threw the pen to Charles and said, "Get to the point!"
Charles escaped from the pen and said, "The monitor said that only the students and relatives are invited. The teachers are getting old. Let them relax."
Patrick asked indifferently, "Aren't you the monitor?"
Charles nodded with a grin, "Don't blame me for not respecting the teachers. I am afraid that they will be mad at me asking some young girls to drink with me. Wouldn't I be sinful?" Patrick paused for a few seconds, thinking that he had dated with his teacher, so he would be more
Sinful".
Putting down his teacup, Charles stood up and said, "So now, you know about it. Just come, the girls miss you very much, and some boys."
Noticing that Patrick was about to throw another pen at him, Charles rushed to the door and said, "Bring your wife!"
Patrick said without thinking, "She isn't available!"
In the evening, Amelia called Patrick, telling him that she couldn't cook at home due to the heavy workload.
He answered very bluntly, "I don't go home for dinner, either."
They reached a consensus tacitly.
Hanging up the phone, Amelia heard Doris saying, "The sales volume of this Valentine's is 20% higher than last year."
Going through the excel on her computer, Amelia said faintly, "It could have been higher, actually."
Doris looked at her in confusion.
Amelia smiled and said nothing.
The department was busy until 10 pm. When Amelia was about to organize the sales report, she received a call from Patrick.
She picked it up and asked casually, "Done with your dinner?"
But it wasn't Patrick speaking, "Hi, Patrick is drunk at the Royal Joy Club. Please come and take him
back."
Hearing the word "club", Amelia's face suddenly darkened. Fortunately, Charles quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong. It's just a classmate's party."
Then Amelia agreed, "Let him wait!"
In the Royal Joy Club.
Ending the call, Charles can't stop admiring Patrick's hidden wife, who was domineering and aggressive. The last sentence was like a queen ordering, and even he had some respect for her. Seeing Charles holding Patrick's phone in his hand, William asked, "Hey, why do you hold Patrick's phone?"
"Shh!" The phone was held by him when Patrick was using the toilet. And then Charles put it back quietly and explained to William, "I am doing an experiment."
William came to his senses and asked, "What's that?"
Charles said with a faint smile, said, "You don't know that except to his wife, Patrick isn't interested in any other woman."
William was stunned and said, "Sh*t, what a true love!"
Charles's smile became weird and said, "But he said that he is addicted in her body, ONLY."
William said resolutely, "I don't believe! He was such a proud little prince when he was in school!"
"Let's wait and see. I've just called his wife to pick him. If Patrick really fell in love with her, he would probably introduce her to us."
The voice gradually lowered, and it's obvious what he was meant to say.
William didn't know what to say and scolded, "you're too naughty."
Patrick, who had washed his face in the toilet, had sobered up a lot. Since he had sex with Amelia as a result of drinking, he tried his best to keep himself sober every time dining out and didn't want the same to happen again.
He entered into the noisy private room, listening to the conversation.
Classmate A: "... Today I saw Miss Sissi posting a photo of a couple walking in opposite direction in sunset on Facebook. I guess there might be something wrong with her marriage?" Classmate B was puzzled and shook his head, asking, "Miss Sissi? I don't remember."
Classmate A sighed and said, "You forgot the year when we graduated, our science teacher had liver cirrhosis and it was Miss Sissi who taught us? Remember she was so beautiful? If only she could have been permanent with us! I would have definitely date with her!"
"Ahhh! It's her!" Classmate B felt the same, saying, "By the way, you just said that there may be something wrong with her marriage? I think not. She is so nice that her husband must have loved her dearly. But... the gossip that she dated with Patrick was spread like wildfire and it was said that they were almost married..."
Standing alone at the door and listening to the gossips about Sissi, Patrick suddenly felt unprecedentedly lonely.
