Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1024

"Silly child." Alice could not help but raise her hand to touch the lovely nose of Amelia. She gestured her eyes and said, "You shouldn't thank me. Because what I did for your father is all my duty."

"Aunt Alice..." Amelia's heart trembled. She wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.

At this moment, Amelia felt that there was a hand holding her shoulder, and the owner of the hand said, "Aunt Alice, there's no need to thank me for this. Amelia's father is my father-in-law, and everything we did for him is our responsible too. Right?"

"Yes, yes!" Alice's smile became even warmer when she smiled at Patrick.

At this moment, the gaze Alice looking at Patrick was clearly more than only a son-in-law.

She was like looking at her own son!

"Aunt Alice, please don't be fooled by this guy's poker face!"

Amelia was hysteric and voiced out in her heart, but Alice was unable to resist Patrick's modest and courteous attitude, which made her had a more favorable impression of him.

Alas...

According to the current happy and harmonious scene, how could she still mention the word 'divorce' to the elders?

"I wonder if Aunt Alice has high blood pressure. I'm hoping that I won't frighten her." Amelia thought to herself.

Realizing that her head was in the clouds, Amelia shook her head. Forget it! Let Patrick won Alice's favor. She was just worried that she would not have the chance to whisper to George!

Amelia stood up from his chair, followed by Patrick's eyes.

He asked with concern, "Mrs. Hopper, where are you going?"

In front of the elders, Patrick could call Amelia any way he wanted.

Not to mention 'Mrs. Hopper'. Even as he addressed her 'dear', 'darling', and 'babe', he would not be met with any disdain.

On the contrary, the mushier he called her, the happier the elders would be.

However, to make the elders happy, Amelia had to tolerate it no matter how dissatisfied she was.

Fortunately, she had learned how to exclude the words 'Mrs. Hopper' automatically. After hearing

Patrick ask her where she was going, Amelia said, "I'm going to dad's side."

Patrick played dumb and said purposely, "Aren't we at dad's side now?"

Amelia was speechless and rolled her eyes to express her feelings. Then she dragged her chair to the other side of the bed.

As soon as she left, Patrick let out a sigh.

His sigh soon drew Alice's concern. "Patrick, have you been very busy lately?"

Patrick shook his head. "It's not about work."

"What's that?" Alice took up the attitude that she was very willing to listen to.

Patrick looked at Amelia, who was muttering something to George.

Alice followed his gaze and immediately understood what he was referring to.

Turning around, Alice asked in a worried tone that only she and Patrick could hear, "Did something happen between you and Amelia again?"

Patrick slightly frowned and said in a calm tone, "Actually... nothing happened to us."

Generally speaking, if he answered in this way, something must have happened.

Alice pondered for a moment. "Did our Amelia did

George was in a deep sleep and could not hear her. She could tell her when he was awake right?

Amelia turned around and looked at George's wrinkled face. Her eyes was welling up.

George's sallow face did not become ruddy even under the recuperation from help of those foreign experts.

However, on second thought, Amelia felt that she was too impatient.

"Those foreign experts have only been here for a few days. Even if Hippocrates reincarnates, it's still hard for him to make the dead come back to his life.

Take it easy..."

Amelia comforted herself.

Just then, Amelia heard that Patrick was concerned about Alice's health and asked if she needed nurses to take care of her. However, Alice always said that she could take care of herself and refused Patrick's kind offer.

Hearing their conversation, Amelia suddenly said, "Yes, Aunt Alice, it's exhausting for you to run around the hospitals all day alone. What's more, isn't...

Brittany in a sensitive period?"

Amelia did not say the word 'miscarriage'. She was mainly afraid that she would hurt Alice's heart again.

When Alice heard her words, she immediately turned to look at her in surprise and asked, "Amelia, don't you know that?!"

Amelia did not understand and asked, "Know what?"

Alice seemed to think of something. She was angry, but she said helplessly, "It seems that Brittany lied to me. She also said that she would tell you that she was going back to college again! She made me believe it so I didn't tell you in advance!"

Amelia was even more surprised. "Aunt Alice, I'm a little confused by what you said. Let's start from the beginning. Did you say that Brittany went back to college?"
