Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 660

Amelia's contempt and indifference choked the air out of Alice. After a long time, only then Alice managed to utter with difficulty, "Amelia, when Brittany was sent to the hospital, she was already bleeding out from her lower body..."

Amelia's eyes contracted at the sound of it. She asked without thinking, "What about the baby?"

Alice's tears streamed down her cheeks. After a while, she muttered through pursed lips, "We're still waiting for the result from the doctor."

At this, Kaleb's observant gaze lingered on Amelia's every action and expression.

The Ramsay sisters were rumored to not get along well with each other. Then, upon hearing such bad news, shouldn't Amelia feel delighted? But if so, why was she frowning?

Could it be...they were merely putting up an act?

But in the next second, Kaleb was proved to be overthinking things.

Because right in front of Alice, Amelia snorted a hearty laugh. She then indifferently, "It must be the fate that's punishing Daniel for disregarding his workers' lives, so He avenged the victims by striking at Brittany and the baby!"

Alice immediately raised her head to stare at Amelia, then cried out with grief and indignation, "Amelia, you shouldn't say something so ill-boding! The doctor is still saving the baby in the operating room!

I believe both of them will be fine!"

Amelia merely flashed a cold smirk and said nothing, the corners of her eyes filled to the brim with malice.

Kaleb witnessed the discourse as it unfolded, and joy bloomed in his heart. If the Ramsay sisters were not on good terms, then the chances of him gaining more power in Apex Construction Corporation and The Ramsay Family were higher!

There was no need to hurry. He would first slowly close the distance in his relationship with Alice and then replace his cousin's high status in The Ramsay Family. Then, step by step, he would mould Amelia and Brittany into his own puppets...

With the thought still running in his head, Kaleb said, attempting to smooth out the tension, "Both of you, don't argue anymore. We're all family at the end of the day. The most important thing right now is how Brittany and the baby in her stomach are doing..."

Disdain surged through Amelia's body, but the words left her mouth were sweet when she said, "Uncle Kaleb, I think I'll stay here and wait for the news for

your sake."

After that, she pulled a chair out and sat down with her legs crossed...

Amelia knew very well that everything she was doing was all a harm to Alice.

"I'm sorry."

Amelia thought in silence.

However, she was left with no other choice.

If she displayed too much care for Brittany in front of Kaleb, he would definitely be on guard against her in the company, and he might even make things difficult for her on purpose!

Time passed. Despite Amelia's haughty look, she was actually peeking at the glowing 'Operating Room' sign from time to time out of the corners of her eyes, hoping that the sign would go dark as soon as possible.

Finally, the two white doors of the operating room were pushed open.

A doctor wearing a mask emerged from the room.

Her gloves were still stained with blood, which made Alice feel dizzy from the sight of it. Amelia's stomach lurched too.

Breaking the silence, Kaleb put on a look of concern and asked, "Doctor, is the patient okay?"

The doctor only replied, "She's awake now, and she said that she wanted to see someone."

"Is it me?" Alice rushed forward.

The doctor glanced at Alice and then asked, "Is your name Amelia Ramsay?"

Amelia, who was seated and bouncing her legs up and down, pointed at herself and asked, "Me?"

The doctor nodded. "Yes, she said she wanted to see Amelia."

Alice turned to look at Amelia, her eyes glistening with tears. "Amelia, Aunt Alice is begging you. Please go in and see how she's doing?"

Taking Kaleb into consideration, Amelia acted as if she was disgusted by the idea and looked another way. "No way! She must be in a hurry to quarrel with me to want to see me as soon as she wakes up. Maybe she'll even claim with dignity that I was the one who pushed her down before I even take a step inside!"

"No, she won't!" Alice waved her hands anxiously. "Brittany fell when she was being chased by reporters on the way. No matter how this turns out, the blame won't fall onto you! I promise you!"

"Okay then, you said that yourself." Amelia pointed at her with a serious face.

"Yes, I did!" Alice immediately reassured her again.

"Sigh, fine then! So troublesome!" mumbled Amelia as she stood up from her seat and walked into the operating room alone. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

As for the doctor, she said to Alice, "Your daughter was supposed to be in emergency aid, but she suddenly requested to see someone in the middle of the process. I told her it was critical to save the fetus in her stomach, but she argued to me that she would only feel at ease after she sees Amelia Ramsay..."

In the operating room.

A waft of the gamey, smell of blood hit Amelia the moment she stepped foot into the room.

Amelia scowled. Looking around, she saw a person lying on the operating table, her legs were spread toward both sides of the operating table...

"Amelia?"

A feeble cry pulled Amelia back from her reverie.

She took big strides towards the operating table and lowered her head to look at the pale face of her sister.

There was no need for unnecessary greetings. Amelia stared at Brittany's unfocused eyes and asked in a clear voice, "Why do you want to see me?"

Brittany parted her lips with struggle and muttered, "I know that...you can find a way for anything... Can you... bring Daniel out to see me and my child... I... I miss him so much..."

Her brows furrowed as Amelia scolded her in a low voice, "This is not the right time for this! I'll call the doctor in right away!"

"Amelia..." Brittany called out to her incoherently when Amelia turned to leave, "I really... really want to see him... Our child... tells me that they miss their dad..."

Nearing the end of the sentence, Brittany's voice slowly added away, apparent that her strength was being exhausted.

Amelia gritted her teeth and grumbled, "I'll go find him!" Then, she left the operating room.

The doctor immediately nodded to Alice and returned to the operating room when they saw Amelia coming back.

The door to the operating room was then closed shut lightly and soundlessly.

Alice came up to Amelia, grabbed her hand, then asked nervously, "Amelia, what did Brittany say to you?"

Amelia cast a glance her way and said with a slight restrain in her voice, "She wants to see Daniel."

"That's going to be difficult!"

Kaleb spoke before Alice could give a reply.

"Oh?" expressed Amelia. Then she challenged Kaleb, "Uncle Kaleb, you're incredibly powerful with the connections you have. So, can you help with this?"

Concern flooded Kaleb's face. "About this... Daniel's incident had taken so many lives... Even if he didn't do it on purpose, in the end... You both know how it is! It's unrealistic for me to bail him out from the police station during a sensitive time like this!"

"If Uncle Kaleb can't do it, then I don't see why I can." Amelia brushed the tip of her nose and said with an eagerness to strip herself of the responsibility, "I'll go back first. Please proceed however you want."

With that, under Alice's look of extreme shock, Amelia got up and left.

"Amelia!" called out Alice in hysteria when she regained her senses.

"Alas, stop shouting, I've told you she's unreliable..." embellished Kaleb.
