Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1007

A minute ago, Audrey, who wanted to lock the office door after cleaning it, was blocked by a handsome man.

Audrey was shocked at first and did not recognize who he was. After coming back to her senses she greeted respectfully, "Mr. Hopper!"

Patrick saw Audrey and told her that he was here to pick Amelia from work.

As a result, the conversation above happened.

After hearing Audrey's answer, Patrick asked with a heavy tone, "You mean, she left the company immediately after work?"

Audrey nodded her head and replied, "That's right."

Patrick frowned. He had finished his work in advance just to pick Amelia off work at the Apex Construction Corporation. And yet, he missed it.

Amelia was really happy as she finally got her car back after so many twists and turns.

As she was having a good mood, she took a trip to the supermarket and bought some ingredients to prepare for a feast and then she went back home joyfully.

Due to the fact that she spent some time in the supermarket, Patrick was already home before she was.

When Patrick opened the door, he noticed that the shoes that Amelia wore this morning were not on the shelf. Immediately a bad feeling aroused.

The next second, Patrick heard a loud horn behind him.

He subconsciously turned around and look through the door that had not been closed yet. He saw a sports car parked outside the garden's fence.

From the open window, Patrick saw a pretty smiling face. It was Amelia who was in the car.

She was looking at him.

Amelia must have horned to attract his attention.

Patrick unconsciously stepped out as if he was charmed by Amelia's lovely smile. He walked down the steps, through the garden, and headed for her.

When he reached her passenger door, Patrick opened the door and got in. He then asked, "Did you go to meet your friend?"

"Yeap." Amelia did not expect him to come in, but it did not matter. She did not care at all.

Patrick looked at her and pretended to ask casually,

"Who is it that borrowed your car and needed you to get it back yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Amelia's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly calmed down. "Why did you think that I'm the one who went over and took it back? Why can't it be that my friend had sent it over to me?"

Patrick then asked, "Send it over? To where?"

"My company!" After saying this, Amelia keenly noticed that Patrick's face sank, and she quickly changed the subject. "I haven't finished yet. I've made an appointment to meet him at my company but something came up so I had no choice but to take the initiative to find him."

"Oh, is that so?" Patrick answered as the coldness in his eyes faded a little.

Seeing this, Amelia did not felt relieved. Instead, she started to panic. Did Patrick know that she went to Kaiden's place? Otherwise, why would his expression be so strange?

But who cared!

The truth would speak for itself.

Amelia gathered herself up and said, "Let me tell you. After I got my car back, I went to the supermarket and bought some ingredients. Just take a look at what I bought.

I was worried about how should I carry them in the house. Who knows that I will run into you when I reached home. So, I decided to give you a horn and ask for your help.

Also, there's a lot of food in my trunk and I'm afraid they can't be finished moving at once, so can you please help me bring some of it in first so that I can drive my car directly to the garage?"

"Sure." Patrick answered.

Upon hearing this, Amelia said with a big smile, "Then I'll thank you in advance!"

"Oh, did you get rid of it then?" Amelia asked with concern.

Patrick signalled her that he had got rid of it and pointed at the trunk. "Open the boot so I can get carry those things for you."

"Sure." Amelia quickly pressed the button of the trunk, and the lid of the trunk popped open.

Patrick immediately walked over.

He took a closer look and found that Amelia placed a large basket in the trunk. Everything she bought was in this basket.

This was really the wisdom of a housewife.

By doing so, she could prevent the ingredients from falling and spilling when the car was speeding on the road.

If it were him, he would have thrown everything into the trunk and drove back without consideration since he was never the one who washed the car.

Patrick reached his hand out and easily lifted the basket from the trunk.

Amelia who was watching him through the rear mirror dropped her jaw in awe upon seeing this.

When she saw that Patrick was prepared to lift the whole basket to the door just like this, she could not help but ask, "Aren't you a little too strong!"

As soon as the word "strong" came out of Amelia's mouth. And when Patrick was the one who was being praised, Patrick's mood skyrocketed. He was thrilled and satisfied.

But the condition was that he had never discovered the cigarette butt.

Thinking of the thing that was dropped in Amelia's car, Patrick felt very depressed.

He really wanted to seize Amelia and ask her who dropped it there. However, he was afraid that she would regard him as a foul man and ghosted him again.

As for the origin of the cigarette butt, he could only investigate it privately.
