Amelia said gravely, "But I have to go somewhere now, and I can't go home yet. Miss Secretary, I don't want to take up your time."
The secretary hurriedly asked, "Where?"
Amelia knew that the secretary was asking this question for Patrick, and then she felt no need to conceal it and simply said, "Apex Construction Corporation."
After Amelia left the set wearing a mask, Shawn was still a bit reeling, never expecting to have so much interaction with an ordinary woman, and he admitted that from the second Amelia rescued him, his eyes would always fall uncontrollably on her whenever she was around.
But so what? They would probably never see each other again after this commercial.
Shawn stopped thinking and said calmly to Ursula, "Let's go, don't we have a new movie launch later?"
Apex Construction Corporation.
When Amelia stepped into the first floor of the company, she was stopped by the lobby manager. "Miss, who are you looking for?"
Touching the mask, she thought to herself that no one in the company would know her even if she pulled it off, so she didn't take it off, "I'm looking for Daniel Phillips."
Her voice sounded like a young girl, and with her calling Daniel by his full name, the lobby manager asked suspiciously, "What's your name, Miss? Did you make an appointment with Manager Phillips before you came?"
"No," Amelia said in a muffled voice, "Please call him and tell him that my surname is Ramsay."
Her last name was Ramsay?
The lobby manager's expression changed. He connected this disguised woman with their boss's daughter Brittany.
In this way, many people did leave out the infrequent eldest daughter, in a sense, Brittany did become the only princess of The Ramsay Family...
"Yes, yes, I'll invite her up right away."
After greeting Daniel, the lobby manager politely said to Amelia, "Miss Ramsay, I'll take you to Manager Phillips's office."
Amelia replied with a "thank you" and stepped forward to follow him.
In the general manager's office.
Looking at the gold-painted door sign in front of her, Amelia had a momentary trance. The poor boy from the countryside at that time became an entrepreneur.
Afterward, Amelia gently rotated the handle of the door and opened it.
The lobby manager who watched her walk into Daniel's office turned around, pulled out his cell phone, and secretly contacted Brittany.
"What! You mean her surname is Ramsay?" Brittany asked anxiously at the other end of the phone.
"Yes..." After the lobby manager roughly described the height and weight of Amelia, Brittany suddenly fell silent. After a while, she replied, "Got it!"
Brittany had returned to the university by plane early in the morning, now regretted that she had left too early. Otherwise, she would have been able to catch their affairs in person!
Amelia also promised that she had no feelings for Daniel. As a result, as soon as she left, Amelia went to see Daniel. So Amelia must still love Daniel, if not, why she went there?
No, she can't let this continue or Amelia might seduce Daniel!
Brittany got through to Patrick's phone number, which she had found in George's address book, and now she finally needed to make the call.
The phone took a long time to be answered and came Patrick's magnetic voice "Who is this?"
Brittany pretended to know him well and replied, "Patrick, it's me, Brittany."
Patrick indifferently asked, "What can I do for you?"
"I just got a message that my sister went to Apex Construction Corporation to find Daniel. One is your wife and the other is my fiance, and I'm worried about the lone man and woman sharing a room together!"
Patrick paused, "If you're worried about that, that's your business. I have faith in my own wife."
He cut off the call without waiting for Brittany to say anything else, causing Brittany to scream as she held the phone in her hand, drawing frequent sideways glances from passing students.
While Brittany and Patrick were on the phone, Amelia had walked into the office, only to see Daniel standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the phone with the material supplier.
She heard Daniel chatting on the phone and he actually wanted to replace all the building materials with the cheapest ones, "Okay, when the materials arrive, I'll notify the finance department to make the final payment to you, bye."
Daniel turned back just in time to lock eyes with Amelia, who had pulled down her mask. Daniel looked suddenly tense and visibly displeased, "Why didn't you knock before you came in?"
Amelia glared at him then pulled out a chair in front of her and unceremoniously sat with her legs folded over each other, "Don't lecture me like I'm one of your men. I don't follow your rules."
She was obviously giving him a hard time, but Daniel was surprisingly nostalgic for their old times together, so he eased his demeanor and asked her with a smile like he used to do when he was in love, "What's wrong? Who's giving you a hard time?"
Such a tone sounded too ambiguous to irritate Amelia, "I came to ask you about the development of the tourist area? Do you let people work 24 hours a day?"
Daniel did not deny it. "So what?"
Amelia's voice was filled with extreme discontent,
"Residents in the area are complaining about the situation, and they say they're going to file a complaint with the government against Apex Construction Corporation! Are you in such a hurry to get to this work done!"
Daniel took away his gentle smile, "Time is money, and you're squandering Apex Construction Corporation's resources by distressing people who don't matter!"
Amelia calmly argued, "What about you? When you contacted the material suppliers to replace all the building materials with substandard ones, did you consider what would happen to the houses you built in the future, Daniel, and do you know what you're doing now? You are squandering the reputation of Apex Construction Corporation!"
Daniel was unconcerned, "I'm saving a fortune on building materials to maximize my company's profits, and you're just an outsider in those businesses, but you like to tell me what to do. Don't youContent © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
think you're ridiculous?"
"It's you who are ridiculous!" Amelia stood up from her chair and looked up at him directly, "Even though my father is sick, I won't let you go on like this unchecked! Don't forget, the company has directors!"
"Go ahead!" Daniel pointed to the door, not afraid to say: "To tell you the truth, the project was approved by your dad himself, and is worth a lot of money. Half of the company's directors are waiting to share the money quickly! You don't think they know I have people working 24 hours a day? Why didn't they stop it? Because they want the money fast, you silly woman!
Amelia scoffed, "I think it's your conscience that's gone!"
Daniel was most uncomfortable with this look of Amelia looking down on him. He straightened his collar and said proudly, "If you have nothing else of importance to see me about, please leave now!"
