Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1411

Brittany walked over and sat down. She then placed a bag on her lap like she was presenting a treasure. As she opened it, she said, "Mom, I've also bought you a gift. Look, this is the latest bag from Armani. Isn't this the one you like best? Come on, try it on!" Alice took it and started to fiddle with it as it was a token of appreciation from her daughter.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Brittany asked nervously.

"Well, it looks good. I like it." After Alice checked the quality of the leather bag, she put it on her shoulder and turned sideways to ask Brittany, "Is it okay with my outfit?"

"Wow! Mommy, you're my goddess! This bag is customized to your elegance!"

"Don't sweet talk me." Alice sighed and put away the bag. Then she sat back in her seat and said, "Brittany, I'll send you back to school after this weekend."

Brittany was shocked and forced a smile. "Mom, my knees still hurt from time to time. Can you give me another week?"

Alice lowered her head and swept a glance at Brittany's injured leg. After the flash of sympathy crossed her mind, she looked up at Brittany and said, "But, you can go shopping now. There shouldn't be any major problem, right? Besides, as a student, studying is your priority."

Brittany hurriedly said, "Mom..."

Alice replied firmly, "Well, there's no room for any discussion. I've already told your programme leader that I'll send you back in two days. In consideration of your special situation, the leader said you can study in the dormitory if your legs are still unwell." "Mom!" What was wrong with Alice? Did she say she want to send her back to school in person? Obviously, Alice was afraid that Brittany would sneak out of school.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you want to relive the university life?" Alice asked.

"I...!" Brittany choked on her words. She could not tell Alice that she had schemed with Kaleb to get Amelia deposed from the company, so she could not go back to school yet!

Seeing that Brittany could not explain herself, Alice stood up. "If there's nothing else, then let's have dinner."

Brittany's thoughts were all over the place as she ate.

She had already followed Daniel's instructions to the tee until this point in time. And out of the blue, Alice wanted to send her back to school right before the final step. How could Brittany let this happen?

If she could not witness Amelia's downfall with her own eyes, she would get much less thrill from her accumulating anticipation! Brittany's strange behaviour caught Alice's attention. "Brittany, why are you eating so little? Does the food not suit your tastes?" "No, Mom. I ate before I came back, so I have no appetite." Brittany took the opportunity to put down her bowl and fork. "Mom, I've been shopping all morning, and I stink. I'll go upstairs to take a bath first. Please enjoy your meal."

"Okay."

Brittany gritted her teeth as an idea came to her mind.

She went into the bathroom, stripped off her clothes, and stood under the shower. Then, she adjusted the water temperature to the lowest setting and finally turned on the tap.

Whoosh!

Although the water was icy cold, it could not quench Brittany's ambition. At this moment, she only had one thought in her mind, which was to stay in Northville by any means!

She still remembered that when Daniel told her that the Ramsay family had been hiding a secret and needed her help to uncover it, she greed hot-headedly without thinking twice.

Back then, she did not expect she would come this far. She held resentment against everything around her, and that was why she let herself do what she did.

Afterwards, she went to Wealth Life Bank and asked Finnegan, the accounts manager for the password to open the safe.

But, Finnegan asked her to bring along George's medical report, a copy of Alice's identity card, and the seal only then she could apply for the password.

It wasn't difficult for Brittany to get the first two items. That was easy for her. The real trouble was the seal.

Fortunately, she was George and Alice's daughter. On the other hand, Zhao Feng had fallen for her honey trap. Thus, he did not bother to keep anything from her.

When Brittany was younger, she thought Alice fawned over Amelia because she wanted her to have a better life.

But, when Brittany thought about uncovering the secret, she realised that Alice only cared about Amelia because she was dumb and did not know better for herself.

Alice was evil, but Brittany was not!

When the Simmons family sent her the letter, Brittany would immediately put Amelia back to her place!

At half past seven in the evening.

After Amelia returned back from Patrick's place, Alice suddenly called her over to her bedroom.

With her sombre expression, Amelia could not help but ask, "Alice, why did you call me in?

After Alice shut the door, she said, "Amelia, there's one thing I need you to know. Do you remember Brittany being enigmatic with you at dinner yesterday?"

Amelia nodded.

Alice continued, "At that time, I was afraid she would cause trouble for the family, so I contacted a private detective and asked him to follow Brittany when she goes out. Just in n case.

Amelia was impressed by Alice and replied, "Wow, Aunt Alice. I didn't know an honest person like you would do such a thing!"

Alice shook her head with a bitter smile. "I was forced to do this because she's cunning.

When I got up this morning, the servant said that Brittany went out early in the morning."
