Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 275

Thinking for a while, Amelia suddenly picked up the tape on the bedside table, tied herself and his hand together, and said with satisfaction, "That's enough."

Her actions were completely out of Patrick's expectation. He couldn't help laughing. She actually had such a domineering behavior.

After returning from Hawoi City, Amelia found that the relationship between her and Patrick seemed to have eased a little bit. This was probably her biggest gain on this trip.

Then came The Hopper Family's feast, which was arranged for the best seven-star hotel in Northville, because Granny Hopper barely came to Northville and she was also the oldest senior in the family.

Since it was a family banquet, they were all the Happe's direct relatives. Amelia secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With Eve, it was enough for her, she was not ready to deal with Patrick's other relatives.

Before the banquet began, Granny Hopper urged Amelia to go back to her room to dress up. She smiled and said, "Granny, I don't think so. I'm just having a meal with your family."

Granny Hopper said solemnly, "I hope that you can dress up well so that Eve can shut her mouth. Also, you can sit next to me and Patrick later. I will protect you."

This kind of feeling of being cared for made Amelia felt warm, she was moved and nodded her head.

The doorbell of the door suddenly rang downstairs. Amelia looked at the time with confusion. "It's still early. Who could it be?"

Patrick opened the door and quickly told the result, "Florence! Why are you here?"Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

As soon as the door was opened, Florence rushed over without looking at it. When he saw clearly that the person he was holding was Patrick, he immediately jumped out of his arms in disgust and said, "So it's you, Patrick."

"It's rude!" Patrick flicked Florence's forehead, ignoring her shouting, then he turned around calmly and went back to the living room to read the newspaper.

Florence covered her forehead in anger and said, "You haven't seen me in two months, and you're reading the paper?"

Patrick snorted softly without looking up, "Reading the paper can be informative, but seeing you only annoys me."

Florence was furious, "Patrick! I'm going to kill you!"

The siblings argued playfully every time they met, and Amelia and Granny Hopper, who heard their bickering clearly from the second floor, laughed out loud, instantly capturing Florence's attention.

Florence shifted to a look of joy as she opened her arms and waved straight at them, "Amelia! Grandma!"

Granny Hopper gleefully said to Amelia, "Hear that, Florence called you first and then me, it seems you're more important to her than I am."

Amelia suddenly didn't know what to say.

Then Florence had gone up the stairs and took Amelia's hand to observe her, "You've lost weight, but yes, you're dealing with the same manat the office by day and at home by night, you must be so disgusted by him that you can't eat."

Amelia was amused by Florence's tone, but the gloating in that laugh was too obvious, and Patrick suddenly looked up at her, looking unhappy.

Amelia quickly stopped laughing and pretended to cough softly to Florence, "How long are you planning to stay back this time?"

Florence counted on his fingers and said, "Seven days. By the way, sister-in-law, can you take me in? I don't want to go home these days."

Amelia was stunned, "Why?"

Florence used his fingers to roll up her hair in front of her chest. She said annoyedly, "It's all because of mom. She's been crazy recently. She called me every day to urge me to find a boyfriend. I can refuse when I'm working. But recently, I'm on vacation and my grandmother has come to Northville. I can't hide in my colleague's house and can only come back to attend the family banquet. So... you know."

Amelia understood what she meant, Florence had been through what she'd been through and was about to say yes, but Patrick from downstairs said firmly, "No!"

"Why not? Why..." Florence suddenly turned her head and put her hands on the fence to protest at Patrick.

"It's so noisy!" Patrick impatiently said, "You're an adult now. Don't you feel shame to live in your

brother's house?"

Florence pouted, "What's there to be shamed about? What I'm asking for is Amelia, not you. Are you afraid that if I live here, Amelia's attention will be taken away, so you don't agree, do you?"

Patrick's anger was ignited by Florence's words. He covered his face with the newspaper and said grumpily, "Just stay here no matter how long you want."

Florence knew Patrick a lot, she was just using Amelia to spur him on and he was giving in.

Turning around, Florence gently touched Amelia's waist with her elbow, and she hurriedly whispered in her ear, "You have a lot of hope..."

Amelia had just wanted to ask what kind of hope, but Florence had already gone to the side of Granny Hopper to act cute.

In this regard, she smiled helplessly, turned around, and cleaned up the guest room for Florence.

In the room, Amelia was alone in the room, hesitated for a while, and finally took out her mobile phone...

She hadn't been able to visit George for the past few days on the business trip and had no choice but to contact Alice to ask about the situation.

"Amelia?"

Hearing Alice's voice, Amelia was as uncomfortable as ever, "So, how is my father?"

"Still the same."

Amelia whispered, "Oh..." "Have you been busy these days? I haven't met you in the hospital." "I've been on a business trip lately." Then they were silent for a long time, Amelia felt so awkward that she couldn't wait to end the call, but Alice's next words froze her in her tracks.

"There's something I've been wanting to talk to you about for a long time, have you seen the news that that cemetery on Rosan Road is going to be auctioned off? Do you need my help?"

Alice's words touched her most sensitive subject, and Amelia cried out, "I don't need your hypocritical kindness! If it wasn’t for you, my mother would not have this outcome!"

She had changed her opinion of Alice a little before, and now she hated Alice all over again because of the subject.

Alice's voice sounded rather sad, "Amelia, what happened to your mother was an accident. No one wanted to have such a tragedy."

Amelia resented, "Hypocrisy! I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life!"

"I can wait." Alice sighed and continued wearily, "If your father ever wakes up, I'm sure he'd be happy to share some of his past with you...
