Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1555

"Don't be scared, Ashley. I'll protect you." Andrew took the opportunity to lower his head and comforted his sister by patting the top of her head as he usually did.

"Huhu...Andrew, don't leave me!" Ashley had never felt as dependent on Andrew as in this moment!

Akira also looked back at Ashley, his eyes filled with appease and consolation.

"Oh no! They're coming at us!" In the next second, Andrew's warning rang in Akira's ears.

By the time Akira turned around, a wolf had already come up to them. Akira swung his gun in reflex and hit the wolf on its head, knocking it backwards.

However, the wolf pack were in good coordination. Just as Akira wanted to raise his gun and hit the wolf, another wolf pounced on him and clamped its jaw on his gun.

Akira was taken by shock and released his grip on the gun. At the same time, the wolf leapt a step backwards with the rifle in its mouth. Left with no weapon, the three kids were desperate.

"Akira, what are you doing?"

Watching Akira suddenly turned around and spread out his arms. Looking as if he was trying to protect the siblings, Ashley cried out in panic.

'Ashley, don't move!" Andrew realized what Akira was doing. Then, he stretched out his arms in cooperation and held his hand with Akira's above Ashley's head. This way, even if the wolves jumped, they would not be able to attack Ashley.

"No, I don't want... I don't want the both of you to die! Help! Mommy! Auntie! Uncle Patrick!"

Their defeated postures and expressions made it the best opportunity for the pack of wolves to attack!

Bang! Bang! In a flash, the two wolves that took the lead to attack the children fell to the ground after a sad wail.

At the sound of the gunshots, Andrew hurriedly called out, "Akira! Ashley! Listen! Someone is here to save us!"

"That's great! It must be Uncle Patrick!" Ashley wanted to get out of the shield circle right away, but Akira shook his head at her. "Don't worry, Ashley. When it's safe, we'll let you out," Andrew chimed in.

"Okay." Ashley immediately quieted down.

After witnessing such sharpshooting, the remaining two wolves lost their interest in hunting, not even sparing a glance at their dead companions before scurrying away in a hurry. This was the experience they gained after battling with the owner of the farm over the years.

Silence filled the air.

When Patrick appeared in front of the three children, he saw the two boys guarding Ashley in their arms. Ashley's head was blocked from sight by their thin arms, and only a small patch of her hair poked through.

Patrick softened his expression and asked, "Are all of you all right?"

Upon hearing the voice, Akira and Andrew lowered their arms and looked up.

"Uncle Patrick!" When Andrew saw Patrick, he let out a loud cry right away. Then, he behaved childishly, hugging Patrick's thigh and asking for comfort.

Akira breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside with a smile.

However, Ashley was standing rooted to her spot uneasily. She stared at Patrick and Andrew with envy and hesitation, not knowing whether she should go over or not.

Patting Andrew's back, Patrick cast a sudden glance at Ashley and said with dignity, "Why aren't you coming over?"

Ashley immediately rushed over and shouted timidly, "Uncle... Uncle Patrick..."

Patrick glanced at Ashley and asked with a faint smile, "Aren't you the bravest in the world? Why are you crying?"

Ashley hung her head low and whispered, "Uncle Patrick, I won't bluff you anymore."

"Oh?" Patrick replied softly.

Patrick took a meaningful look at Akira, then turned back to Kaito and said, "Mr. Kaito, why don't we talk about the details of the cooperation tonight? What do you think?"

After a long pause, Kaito finally answered in a

hurry, "O...okay! Okay!"

When they returned to the homestay, Amelia finally asked Patrick, "Have you decided to buy Kaito's farm?"

"Hmm," Patrick answered softly.

Amelia continued, "Is it because Akira helped Andrew and Ashley?"

Patrick looked at her admiringly. "You know me the best, Amy."

Amelia said, "I found that... sometimes, you can be virtuous."

Patrick smiled and continued, "Well, consider it a favor that I'm returning to Akira. If he hadn't tried his best to protect Andrew and Ashley, they would have lost their minds and even been injured. Also, I was the one who arranged this trip. So, if anything had happened to the children, I wouldn't know how to tell Owen and Nora."

Eight o'clock at night.

At Northville in Kaleb's house.

At the dinner table.

"Come on. Come on, guys. Let's have a toast for my dear niece, who's going to be the acting director."

Just as Kaleb's voice fell, Brittany, who was wearing a long dress, stood up from her chair. She lifted her glass of wine and smiled sweetly at the several attendees at the table. "I hope you can provide me with the guidance and care that I need in the future. A toast to everyone from me!"
