Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1498

"Amy, if that br*t bothers you again, just call me directly. No matter where I am, I will come to you immediately and throw him far away. Do you hear me?"

"Yes, yes, yes... You're my superman, alright?"

Amelia simply pulled his head down and gave him a kiss on the face as he saw how he talked endlessly. Well, after her sweet actions, he finally stopped.

Patrick patted her and said happily, "Come on, let's go home."

In this way, Amelia began to go back and forth to the office with Patrick each day. During this period, she had not met any employee in Roxxon.

The reason was that Patrick had secretly adjusted the working hours to an hour later. Besides, he had always ordered to have the crowd cleared in advance, so Amelia was able to avoid others perfectly.

As she was living such life for three consecutive days, Amelia did not pay attention to the matter of the Apex Construction Corporation at all.

Whether she was irresponsible or disappointed, she really did not have the courage to face the issues again. Fortunately, no one called to bother her, so she felt at ease.

In the evening, after returning to Land of

Fragrance from the Roxxon Corporation, Patrick was busy in the kitchen with Amelia. She was picking vegetables and he was washing fish. They seemed to have their own duties.

At this moment, Patrick said, "Amy, I have to go out after dinner."

Amelia stopped picking vegetables and asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Patrick answered briefly, "To deal with some business matters."

"To see clients?"

"Right..."

Amelia replied with an 'oh' and lowered her head to continue picking the vegetables. But, her movements suddenly became a little slower.

She had accompanied him in and out of the company for days. It might not be a matter of seconds, but they had indeed stayed together all the time.

During the period, she knew how many phone calls he had answered, and also what they were talking about. But, none of them was about an appointment with him that night.

Unless... he was hiding something from her.

However, she might be too sensitive. The client could possibly make an appointment with Patrick through email or text message as well.

"Amy?" As Patrick noticed that Amelia was lost in her thoughts, he could not help but touched her elbow worriedly.

Amelia recovered and asked, "Where were we just now...? Oh yes, you said that you would go out after dinner! Are you in a hurry? Should I be quicker?"

Patrick said softly, "I'm not in a hurry. I have plenty of time. Take it easy. I don't want you to get hurt."

Seeing that he was caring about her all the time, Amelia suddenly felt that her messy thoughts were redundant.

He was different from the old Patrick! How would he hide something from her?

After feeling relieved, Amelia began to concentrate on her work. She was completely unaware of Patrick's subtle gaze from the dark.

After dinner, Amelia sent Patrick to the gate of the garden in person. Then she smoothed his tie and said, "Come back early."

"I'll be back very soon." Patrick picked up her hand and gave it a gentle pinch.

The two showed affection on the spot for a while before they were willing to separate. Outsiders might think that Patrick was going to travel to a distant place.

As Patrick's figure was going further, Amelia suddenly felt lonely. He must have been too nice to her during the period of time, making her more clingy and more reluctant to leave him...

Alas, she should just accept the fact that she could no longer live without him. As he had almost lost his life for her.

After a pause, Gramps Hopper changed his tone. "It's such good news. Why didn't you tell Gramps yourself?"

Sorry—Wait!

What did Gramps say?

Amelia suddenly widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, "Gramps, did you just say that... this is good news?"

"Yeah, great news!" Gramps Hopper laughed.

After making sure that she did not mishear this time, Amelia could not help asking, "Gramps, aren't

"Why should I be angry?" Gramps Hopper was confused.

Amelia could not think of a reply. She asked with puzzlement, "Didn't you make me your granddaughter? Are you not angry at all that I got together with my 'brother'?"

After a long silence, Gramps Hopper scolded while laughing, "You're really stubborn!" "Gramps?" When had she acted stubbornly?

Gramps Hopper answered, "Well, it's all Gramps' fault. If I didn't force you and Patrick to be siblings, you would no longer have connections with The Hopper Family. And there would not be other matters today."

Amelia was stunned.

Gramps Hopper continued, "Amelia, although I did not choose you as Patrick's wife from the beginning, I knows that you are a strong, independent, and considerate child after some understanding.

And that's why Gramps has guessed that with your character, you will try your best to distance yourself from The Hopper Family once you divorce with Patrick.

But fortunately, you still have a considerate side. So after I pretended to be sick and get hospitalized, you've been soft-hearted and agreed to be my granddaughter."

Amelia felt the urge to shed tears as she listened. "Gramps..."
