Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1269

But this was not the case.

Amelia was using all her willpower that was beyond her imagination to tolerate the intimacy between Kayla and Patrick!

She caught sight of Kayla cramming Patrick’s plate with sashimi from time to time while always exclaiming, 'This is delicious', or, 'Try this quickly', Patrick would always accommodate her by sprinkling on some seasonings and ate it...

Amelia paused as she ate her ramen. The steam emanating from the noodles momentarily overwhelmed her eyes, but it could not cover what she felt in her heart. She cared, and she cared very much.

If they were in the past, Amelia would not have hesitated to declare her ownership over Patrick to Kayla. But now, both she and Patrick were single, and Amelia had no rights to interfere.

With this thought in mind, Amelia could not help but feel a little helpless. It was as if she was punching cotton. Furthermore, Patrick seemed to be very cooperative to Kayla's advances from beginning to end. Why would Amelia want to meddle in his business?

She breathed out deeply, and in the hindsight, Amelia looked like she was blowing off some steam excluded from the noodles; but only she knew that she was actually trying to blow away the sadness in her heart.

Kayla smiled and suddenly called out as she noticed Amelia's expression, "President Ramsay, don't only eat ramen. Give these sashimi a try, they're very delicious!"

"I..." Amelia felt that it was not suitable for her to have anything raw and cold because she was pregnant, so she refused. "Miss Elliott, thank you for your kindness, but my stomach has been a little unwell for these past two days. It's better for me to eat something piping hot. You can eat them with Mr. Hopper instead."

"I see." Upon hearing this, Kayla blamed herself: "It's all my fault. I didn't consider President Ramsay's condition..."

Patrick put down his chopsticks and stared at Amelia's pale face. He consoled, "Don't say that. It was President Ramsay who didn't tell us about her stomachache. How could Miss Elliott blame herself for her inconsideration?"

"Yes, Miss Elliott, I really can't blame you for this." Amelia added sincerely. God knew that she did not really suffer from a stomachache.

"Alright!" Kayla's guilty look gradually faded away after this.

However, at this time, Patrick questioned Amelia sharply, "What makes me puzzled is that President Ramsay is already an adult who isn't only forgetful, but also someone who treats her body so simply. Is that how it should be?"

Amelia glared at Patrick angrily. She thought to herself, "I'm doing this for the sake of your child, and now I'm being ridiculed by you. I've had enough!"

"No need to worry, Mr. Hopper. I can take care of my own body."

As he heard how angry she was, Patrick smiled, but his smile was cold. "So, this so-called care is to take care of yourself in terms of your affairs with other men?"

"Patrick!" Amelia's face burned red with anger. This kind of thing should not only be uttered in private, but Patrick intentionally proclaimed this in public to criticize her, and what more in front of Kayla. This was a downright public humiliation!

Patrick's lips twitched with the anger he himself would not mention. "You don't have to argue. After all, at the end of the day, President Ramsay doesn't have any ounce of self-respect..."

Before Patrick could finish speaking, Amelia suddenly picked up the teacup by his hand and flung it at him. Kayla was stunned for a moment as the witnessed what happened. She then quickly picked up a napkin to dry his face.

Patrick blocked it so that Kayla could not get close to him.

He glared at Amelia deeply, and his eyes looked dark and bottomless at this moment in time. Amelia believed that if it was not for people here, Patrick would have already torn her apart!

But at this time, she could not care less about anything else. Her anger made her lose her mind. Coldly, Amelia smiled and said, "I thought that you were just mocking me, that everything was just a test for me to endure. As long as I endured, you'll eventually help me to testify against Mr. Quade. I didn't expect that you were intentionally mocking and ridiculing me. Apparently, I asked the wrong person for help, so..."

Amelia definitely could no longer contact Patrick and Kayla anymore. So, does that mean that she could retrieve the surveillance video from the hotel room last night?

As she thought of this, Amelia could not help but to feel hopeful again. However, at at the same time, she stared back at Silver Throne restaurant with regret.

If she had known earlier, she would not have helped Patrick and Kayla pay the bill. After all, she only ate half a bowl of ramen!

After hopping into her car, Amelia turned the steering wheel and headed to the hotel where she and Mr. Quade were involved in a fight last night.

An hour later...

When Amelia stalked out of the hotel, all hints of hope displayed on her face were gone as she just learned from the manager that the surveillance tape in the room had been deleted in advance. She was one step behind.

It had to be Mr. Quade!

Amelia thought to herself bitterly.

Things seemed to return to square one. All night, she got nothing except getting mocked and ridiculed!

As she slowly drove back to the Ramsay Mansion, Alice rushed towards Amelia and directly asked her with concern, "Amelia, a friend called me today and informed that you were sued! When I asked him further, he mentioned that you failed to cooperate with someone named Quade and hurt him in the process. Now many people are talking about this issue, what on earth happened exactly? Why haven't I heard you bring this up to me before..."

Amelia was stunned. Deep in her heart, she thought that Mr. Quade only wanted to stir up trouble. Not only did he sue her, but he also made it known to the public till it made Alice worried!
