Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 743

Huxton paused and raised his head. He looked at the little girl sitting on the steps and said, "Miss Ashley, I can chat with you as well even if I'm standing here."

"But I like men who are wholehearted," Ashley said in an overbearing tone. "If you want to chat with me, you must stop the work on your hand."

In the face of Ashley's requirements, Huxton said indifferently, "But I like to work wholeheartedly. I hope Miss Ashley won't make things difficult for me or my master would be angry."

Ashley raised her head and asked rudely, "Which master are you talking about?"

Huxton replied respectfully, "It's your uncle."

"Oh, are you referring to my uncle Patrick?" Ashley patted her chest as her eyes lit up with pride. "Let me tell you this. My uncle dotes on me the most. If you serve me well, my uncle will not blame you, he might even reward you."

Huxton opened his mouth but before he could say anything, he heard the sound of a car coming from behind him.

As he turned his head back, a Lamborghini stopped gracefully at the gate of the small garden.

Huxton immediately stood up and shouted, "Sir."

Patrick's handsome face was seen as the window was rolled down.

Ashley stretched her neck to see what was happening. When she saw Patrick, she jumped up from the steps and shouted while running, "Uncle Patrick!"

Patrick's cold glance followed the call and shifted to the small fella behind Huxton.

Seeing that it was Ashley who shouted, he was a little surprised. He then opened the door and stepped out of the car.

"Plop!"

When he looked down, he saw that Ashley had crashed into his thigh. She had also reached out to hug one of his thighs and rubbed her cheek on it intimately.

Patrick's glance went warm. He raised his hand and rubbed her head.

Huxton, who was beside him, took the chance to ask Patrick while he was distracted, "Sir, shall I drive the car into the garage?"

Patrick nodded and said, "The key is in the car." "Alright," Huxton responded and quickly stepped into

the car.

It was not until when Huxton had driven the car far away then Ashley realized what had happened and shouted, "Oh no!"

Patrick wanted to ask why Ashley was here but he swallowed it back and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ashley pouted her lips towards the direction of Huxton and said, "I let him slip away!"

Patrick raised his eyebrows. He did not know if Ashley was talking about the man or the car.

Then, he heard Ashley saying, "Uncle, I want you to give me someone!"

Patrick looked at her and asked, "Who?"

"Little Hux!"C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Little Hux?" Patrick thought to himself. "She must be referring to Huxton, wasn't she?"

Ashley nodded her round and chubby cheek, "Bingo! It's your butler!"

"You want him?" Patrick said slowly, "Then, you have to ask him yourself. As long as he agrees, I won't stop you."

Ashley's eyes lit up. "Really, Uncle Patrick?"

Seeing that Patrick nodded his head, Ashley clapped her hands happily and said, "Uncle Patrick, you are so open-minded!"

Patrick smiled but did not say anything.

The reason why he promised her so quickly was that he knew Huxton would not have left with Ashley.

With these thoughts wandering in his mind, he asked, "Now can you tell me what you're doing here?"

After receiving a promise from Patrick, she answered obediently, "Well... Mommy took me and Andrew here. She said that she wanted to see you and Aunt Amelia to talk about something."

Patrick was a little worried. Why would Nora come to see him and Amelia out of a sudden? He was afraid that there was something troublesome to deal with.

"Come, take me to your mom."

"No way." Ashley shook her little head and looked in the direction where the Lamborghini disappeared. She then said devoutly, "I'm going to wait here for Little Hux to come back."

In the living room.

After the discussion, Amelia and Nora happened to run into Patrick, who was walking into the house.

"Patrick." "Hi, Nora."

After Nora and Patrick greeted each other, Amelia said, "Nora, I'll be in the kitchen cooking. By the way, would you like to stay for dinner before going back?"

Nora replied with a phrase that only she and Amelia could understand. She replied, "I'd better not. I can't wait to go home and try Florence's idea."

Amelia immediately ran out of reason to persuade her to stay, she then said "Well then, all the best."

Patrick listened to them as if he was listening to a riddle. He asked in a low voice, "Nora, I was at the door just now. I heard from Ashley that you have something to discuss with us?"

He emphasized the word 'us' on purpose in order not to be excluded by Amelia.

Nora smiled and said casually, "It's nothing. Amelia has already taken care of it for me."

Patrick's glance swept over towards Amelia, only to find that her eyes were looking down. It made it impossible for him to look in her eyes, let alone into her heart!

There was an inexplicable fire in his heart!

If this was the case, he would not ask about it then!

He did not want to act like he was eager to know what was happening.

Patrick then made up his mind and said indifferently, "Since everything is fine, why aren't you back in the

kitchen?"

Amelia was clear that this 'you' was referring to her but she felt uncomfortable when she thought of the fact that she was ordered by Patrick.

But no matter what had happened, she should not starve herself.

She turned to Nora and said, "I'll leave you two here." Then, she turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Patrick's glance narrowed and followed Amelia until she could no longer be seen...

"What's wrong with you guys?" After Amelia disappeared, Nora asked Patrick.

Patrick took his glance back from Amelia and cleared his throat unnaturally. He then said, "Everything's fine."

Nora then said in a remorse tone, "Amelia didn't mean to hide the reason why I was here. She respected my opinion. I didn't want to trouble you with this matter for the time being, so I didn't tell you about it. If you want to blame someone, please blame it on me."

After listening to her words, Patrick said helplessly, "Nora, I don't mean to blame you."

"Since he's not blaming her, that means he must be blaming Amelia?" Nora thought.

Patrick pursed his lips and changed the topic. "Hey Nora, where's Andrew?"

Nora's swept her glance over the balcony and said, "I think Andrew is playing with Rick on the balcony."

Patrick asked with concern, "How're their studies lately?"

Upon hearing the word 'studies', Nora's expression changed immediately.

She nodded but deep down inside her heart she did not agree with it. "They're making progress."

Patrick replied in an acknowledgement tone, "It's good to see improvements. I've heard that my mom hired a tutor for Andrew after Christmas."

Nora froze for a moment. "You knew all about this?"
