Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1197

"I don't understand what you mean." With a poker face, Patrick looked away and went on to the parking lot.

"You know what I mean!" Amelia sped up to catch up with him. "If I don't obey you, you will tell Aunt Alice that my father has not only strange poison in his body, but also asthenic syndrome. You are trying to hurt the last few relatives I have in this world!"

Patrick put on a self-mockery smile which was hardly understandable and said, "Since you are well aware of my mind being full of schemes, then you should obey me."

"Patrick, you're too despicable!"

A trace of gloom flashed in Patrick's eyes, but he said with a smile, "Yes, haven't you known it for a long time?"

Amelia was so angry about Patrick being frank that she spoke without thinking, "You, not only are you despicable, but you are also shameless. You drank my tea, ate my desserts, and...sat on my sofa in my home for nothing!"

Out of her expectations, Patrick raised his hand and pulled her into his arms. He straightly pinched her chin and said coldly, "You should know that these things are nothing near to what I've given to your father now!"

Amelia pouted, feeling angry and sad at the same time.

If she had the support of a world-class medical team as well, she would definitely not be bullied by Patrick!

"You feel aggrieved, don't you?" Through her clear and watery eyes, Patrick could see what was going on.

Seeing that she had slightly turned away to prevent him from prying into her emotions, Patrick smiled coldly. "Amelia, do you think you're the only one who felt aggrieved in our bad marriage?"

Frowning, she could hear a slight tremor and a trace of helplessness from Patrick's voice...

But very quickly...

"Tea, desserts, and the sofa are just appetizers. You know what I'm actually looking for!"

Patrick finished his words in a loud voice, controlled his strength to push her to the side, and strode away.

After Amelia regained her footing, she bit her lower lips while looking in the direction that he had left. However, she no longer had the courage to chase

after him no matter what.

On the other side...

Brittany got out of George's and Alice's bedroom, empty-handed.

She cursed in her heart as she rubbed her aching neck and walked down the stairs.

For the entire afternoon, the stamp required as an exchange for the safe's password had not been found. Instead, she was almost exhausted!

She did not know where Alice had hidden it. She almost turned the bedroom upside down, but she still could not find it!

At this moment, a maid who passed by casually mentioned, "Ms. Brittany, madam is back."

Brittany nodded. She had supposed that Alice would come back soon, so she got out of the bedroom. Otherwise, she would be caught red-handed, which would be embarrassing.

In the living room.

Brittany acted as if nothing had happened. She held Alice's arm and shouted, "Mom, you're back! Are you tired? Do you want me to give you a massage?"

Alice patted the back of her hand and said lovingly, "I'm not tired."

The next second, Brittany caught sight of the dessert platter, teapot and tea cup that had been used on the table.

She suddenly panicked. "Mom! When did you come back?"

Alice was startled by Brittany's voice raise. "Just now."

"Fine, mom, so what on earth did Patrick come here for?" "He said he had to send something to Amelia." While speaking, Alice rubbed her temples and said tiredly, "Brittany, I'll go back to my room to wash up first. Please help me to pass the order to the kitchen. It's almost time for dinner."

"Okay, mom, I got it," Brittany answered.

After Alice stood up and left, Brittany's gaze suddenly froze.

Because there was a file left on Alice's seat.

It should be Alice not noticing it when she sat down previously, so she had been pressing it on her lower back. As soon as she left, the file naturally fell down.

Brittany got up and took it. She opened it casually and took a look at it.

Brittany's pupils greatly constricted when she looked at the content clearly. She was stunned for a long time.

When Amelia returned home, she saw Brittany rushing towards her from nowhere. If she had not dodged in time, she would have been knocked over.

After making sure that the person was Brittany, Amelia asked in confusion, "Brittany, why are you so reckless?"

All of a sudden, Brittany raised the thing in her hand and asked fiercely, "Amelia, look, what is this!"

Amelia followed her words and looked over. Her voice suddenly became cold. "It's mine. Give it back to me!"

Brittany dodged Amelia's outstretched hand and glared at her, as if she wanted to hack her into pieces with her killing eyes. "Tell me, what's this?!?"

Amelia finally realized how abnormal Brittany was being. "Why are you so agitated?"

Brittany glared at her and said with her face almost contorted. "What's wrong with you not being able to answer my question? Why not I answer it for you! This is 1 billion dollars! A total of 1 billion dollars!!"

"So what?" Amelia sounded perplexed as she did not understand what was going on with Brittany all of a sudden.
