Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1392

Abner was a kid after all. He did not mean anything bad when he made such a request. However, his words successfully triggered Sissi's jealousy.

Sissi was so pissed off that she grabbed Abner's shoulder all in a sudden. She snapped, "Abner, who was the one you mentioned earlier? Why must she be the one who tells you story?"

Abner could not help frowning. After all, he was despised of Sissi's interaction with him all this while, not to mention that she had caused him pain at this moment.

Sawyer had in mind of Abner's physical defect, thus he immediately reached out to hold Sissi's hands. He then called out, "Sissi, please calm down. Let me explain this to n you.

"Explain?" Sissi turned around and looked at him in disbelief. She stammered as she asked, "Does that mean... Is it true that Amelia had been here before?"

"Yes." Sawyer had no intention of lying to her at the very first place. He hushed, "I'll tell you after you let go of Abner."

With her voice shaking, she agreed, "Fine..." As soon as she let go of Abner, she demanded for an explanation, "Tell me now!"

It was never Sawyer's intention to involve Abner in their affairs. Therefore, he said, "Abner, you should go upstairs and sleep first."

"Okay." Abner nodded obediently before he got down from the couch. He then headed towards the staircase.

There was a dozen of rooms in the mansion. He swore that he would sleep in any rooms but Sissi's.

After ensuring that Abner had left, it was only then Sawyer turned around and glanced at Sissi who was exasperated. He explained, "It surprised me too when I first found out that Abner was close to Amelia. I wish I know the reason behind it but unfortunately I don't. Since the day I found out that Abner adores her, I decided to invite her over to be Abner's teacher."

Thus, Sawyer thought that it would be best for him not to tell Sissi in detail as it would confuse the situation even more.

"Abner's teacher?" Sissi continued spitefully, "How can you expect a woman like her to be Abner's teacher? She is only capable to bring the worst out of Abner! You know how much I hate that woman! How on earth could you leave Abner to her?"

Sawyer smirked, "But, this isn't how you told me earlier."

"What did I tell you earlier then?!" At this moment, Sissi was blinded by jealousy and hatred that she was not able to think twice. Otherwise, she would never talk to Sawyer in such a rude manner.

Sawyer began to speak expressionlessly, "A moment ago when you mistook me as Patrick, you were making confession that it was your fault for coming in between him and Amelia. You claimed that you felt sorry for both of them that they had divorced because of you. But, now you're here trying to tell me how much you hate this woman. Can I understand this as a part of you still love Patrick?"

"I..." The color drained from her face all in a sudden. Sawyer's question had no doubt caught her by surprise.

She fell into an awkward silence before she explained, "It's true that I feel sorry for ruining their marriage. But, it's also an undeniable fact that she had been holding grudge against me as she thought that I was competing with her to get Patrick. I'm just worried that she is going to influence how Abner thinks of me. By the way, does she know that Abner's my child?"

Sawyer nodded as he replied briefly, "Yeah, she knows."

When Sissi heard Sawyer's answer, she jumped on her feet in agitation. She snapped, "Of course she knows! I know for a fact that Abner is part of her plan to revenge

I n

on me!

Meanwhile on the Land of Fragrance.

After having a hot water bath, Amelia could not help feeling refreshed. She stepped out of the bathroom in a bathrobe. In the next second, she caught Patrick standing next to the bathroom door from the corner of her eyes.

As soon as she met with his gaze, she exclaimed in disbelief, "Don't tell me that you've been standing here all this while." Patrick stared at her flushing cheek and murmured, "Yup... I'm worried that you would be afraid bathing alone in there." Amelia burst out laughing, "Why would I be scared? After all, I used to live at this place." Patrick lowered his head as he began toying with her wet hair. He rephrased, "What I'm trying to tell you is that I'm afraid of leaving you alone in there."

Amelia's heart skipped a beat when she first heard his words. In the next second, she found his words amusing, "Are you scared that I will end up missing again?"

Patrick replied solemnly, "I'm not scared that you will go missing. After all, I will find you no matter where you are. What I’m afraid of is that you're going to suffer before I get to find you."

A surge of warmth filled her heart instantly. She could not help but throw herself into his arms. Although she was yet to agree to their remarriage, she considered both of them as a romantic couple at this stage. Therefore, she did not think that it was inappropriate for her to offer him a hug.

Patrick certainly did not expect Amelia to press her body against him. Having in mind that she had just done bathing, there was no doubt that she was completely naked underneath the bathrobe. Her embrace at this time was no doubt than playing with fire.

"Mrs. Hopper..." Patrick felt as if his throat was burning when his voice cracked through the thin air. At this moment, his desire had swept away his rationality.

Unexpectedly, he reached out to her hands on his waist before he gently pushed her away from his chest.

To have Amelia offered to hug him out of the blue, he must be losing his mind to push her away at this time!
