Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 929

When Patrick heard of Ashley's failure, he could not help but said seriously, "It can only prove that you have not done your best. Give her a call once again."

Ashley looked helplessly at Patrick and said, "Uncle, you are really persistent. Since you want Auntie Amelia to come so badly, why don't you call her yourself?"

Patrick's eyes became dim. Was it that he refuse to call? It was clearly because Amelia would not obey him!

With this thought in mind, he softened his tone and coaxed the little girl in front of him. "Ashley, be a good girl and help me once more."

"Oh!" Ashley exclaimed. Suddenly, she tiptoed and brought her chubby face closer to Patrick.

"Give me a kiss," she requested.

Patrick's lips curled into a thin line. After seeing that no one passed by, he reluctantly picked Ashley up and kissed her gently on her cheek.

"Yes!" After being put on the ground, Ashley covered her blush and happily spinned around.

"That should be enough!" Patrick could not bear it any longer. He stretched out his big hand to cover

Ashley on the head.

Ashley could not continue to spin as if she had been set with a stopper.

"Uncle!" She stomped, rolled her eyes and glared at Patrick. "Can you let go of me? You are messing up my hairstyle!"

Patrick ordered, "Not until you made the phone call."

"Alright then." Ashley held her cell phone up reluctantly. After all, she was fond of the bossy style of her uncle who was really cool!

Besides, she really hoped that Amelia would be able to attend Owen's birthday celebration.

At Streams Villa.

Ring...

The phone, which had been quiet for just a while, rang again in Amelia's palm.

She looked at the caller ID in annoyance. It showed the name of 'Owen Hopper', but most likely, it was Ashley calling using her brother-in-law's mobile phone again.

There was no enmity between her herself and Ashley, but when she remembered that Ashley was most likely to be instigated by Patrick, she started to resist the phone call.

At this moment, a muffled child's voice came from the direction of the cot. Amelia's hand, which was holding the phone, shook and she looked towards to cot reflexively.

Not knowing when, Abner sat up. With cow licked bangs, Abner was blinking his black and misty eyes staring at Amelia.

Amelia did not doubt that it was her ringtone that woke him up. She said apologetically, "Abner, sorry to have bothered your sleep."

Abner's face was blank, as if he was regaining his composure.

After a moment, he slowly raised his fleshy little finger and pointed straight to Amelia's cell phone.

Amelia had originally made up her mind to ignore the phone call. But being stared at by Abner's clear, big eyes, Ashley's appearance who seemed to be delicate and felt aggrieved came to Amelia's sight. She finally could not help but answered the phone, "Hello".

Ashley, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately sobbed and whinned, "Auntie, do you hate me so much? Why didn't you answer my phone!"

Amelia's heart was broken listening to her cry.

"Ashley! Listen..."

Ashley began to be troublesome. "I'm not listening! Auntie must have hated me that you refused to come to my house. Then I'll just run away from home. After I left, you will then be willing to come over."

Amelia did not know how to respond to Ashley's dramatic behavior. "Ashley, that's not it! Never mind, pass the phone to your uncle, I'll talk to him directly."

Ashley instantly panicked. "What? Uncle? He's not by my side now. If you have anything to say, you can let me know. I'll help to pass on the message."

Seeing that Ashley was still helping Patrick to cover this lie, a hint of coldness flashed in Amelia's eyes. "Ashley, do you know what kind of child I hate the most?"

Ashley went speechless and gasped. She was so guilty that she did not dare to utter a word. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Amelia said without hesitation, "First, a liar, second, a disobedient one. Which kind do you think you are?"

Both.

Ashley thought.

At Owen's place.

Ashley blushed at the question. She admitted that she had always been shameless, but being shameless did not mean being ignorant.

Before Amelia lost her temper, Ashley sensibly handed the phone to Patrick and stuck her tongue out to him. She looked very embarrassed, as if she had been exposed.

Seeing this, Patrick frowned. After all, he did not let a child to take the blame for him.

He no longer placed his hand on Ashley head. Instead, he reached out for the phone. After that, he turned his back and answered the phone.

"It's me," he said as calmly as possible.

The gentle breathing on the other side suddenly cooled down. "Patrick, I knew it was you who instigated Ashley to call me! Who else do you want to send next? Andrew?"

Patrick wondered how she knew, but replied, "I don't know what you are talking about."

Amelia snorted and said, "Is it that you can't live without me? It's only been half a day that you haven't seen me that you're so anxious to look for me everywhere?"

A sense of exasperation flashed across Patrick's brows. His dignity would never allow him to say something like 'I can't live without you'!

He said coldly, "Amelia, I think you might be over

confident of yourself. I suggested Ashley to call you because the children are always crying to see you. As for me, it doesn't matter whether you come or not."

This was what Amelia was waiting for. "You've said it yourself. It doesn't matter whether I go or not. Well, I will not be going, and you will not be bothered as well."

Patrick was stunned as he thought to himself, he had actually been tricked by Amelia!

But there was no going back since he himself had said so. Now that things had come to this point, he had no choice but to brace himself and growled, "Okay! Forget about it! No one is forcing you to come!"

Although he said that, Patrick did not hang up the phone right after talking rudely, which he had always used to.

He was still having hopes that Amelia might regret to which he chose to wait and see.

Amelia wished to stay away from him so of course she would not regret. "Well, in fact, no one else has forced me, only you. It's really great to know that now you have stopped to do so. I think it's time for you to hang up."

Amelia's goading method was quite effective.

Patrick lost his mind. He was so angry that he felt dizzy and drumming in his ears. In order to prevent himself from raging, he decisively threw the phone!

Ashley who was standing behind him stared at his tall but stiff back and asked carefully, "Will auntie come?"

"No!" Patrick said without looking back.

He was afraid that if he turned back, his fierce face would frighten Ashley.

Ashley expressed her confusion. "Hey, didn't you act cute with auntie?"

Patrick was silent at first as his face turned darker, and he replied. "Why would I do that? I'm not a girl."

Ashley patiently corrected him. "A boy can also be cute. It's true that boys who act cutely get the best reward."
