Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1684

"He was the most painful person?" Milton looked around and then sneered, "The most painful person is actually decorating the house at such a moment? I think he's living quite leisurely instead."

Patrick looked at him and said slowly, "Before the incident, Amy and I have discussed about the house decoration. So I hope when she comes back, our home will become the way she expected."

Milton's expression changed a lot as he heard the words.

He opened his mouth and finally did not say any more unpleasant words.

Jessica took the opportunity and asked, "Didn't that b*stard Sawyer release any news? Regarding what he truly wanted to do with you by using Amelia?"

"No, it's always calm before the storm." Based on his understanding of Sawyer, he would either be all quiet or simply create a big news at once. In short, Sawyer would never let them off easily.

"That b*stard!" Jessica said in anger. "I should've slit his throat back then!"

Milton was shocked by her ferocity. "You used to

have a grudge against him?"

Jessica could not be bothered to bring it up again. "It's not a good thing anyway."

"Alright." Milton did not force her.

"I wonder how Amelia is doing right now?" Jessica quickly got back to the topic, "She's pregnant, what if Sawyer abuse her? When that man gets exasperated, he simply doesn't care about others!"

As soon as she thought of the child that had been aborted over a night, Jessica's heart was filled with fear. What if such a thing happened to Amelia?

"You would only scare yourselves while guessing here."

Patrick's expression was calm and with ambiguous emotions, he shared his experience with them. "During the period of time, I've always told myself not to think about it. I'll just stay still and wait for the investigation results or text messages, phone calls, and Email from Sawyer."

Jessica thought for a moment. "That's true. As there seems to be no better way. You can't just drive yourself crazy before finding Amelia. While that will only please Sawyer, the b*stard."

Patrick looked at her with gentler eyes when he heard that, as if responding to her understanding.

In such a way, it would be unreasonable for Milton to lose his temper again.

He moved his butt on the sofa and said somewhat awkwardly, "In fact, I have no position in blaming you. The power of Cook's is almost negligible compared to The Hopper Family. That's why I've placed all my hopes on you. I hope... in any case, you should find Amelia. Don't forget that she's still pregnant with The Hopper's baby!"

Patrick looked at him calmly. "Are you worried that The Hopper Family would give up on Amelia so you mentioned about the child?"

Milton said bluntly, "The Hopper Family is rich and powerful. That as long as your elders wish to, they could arrange another woman to marry you at any time. I am worried that they will not waste so much time and energy in searching for Amelia, especially when Amelia is very likely to threaten your life."

Jessica bit her lower lip and looked at Patrick as she heard this. She knew that he could give up his all, including his life for the sake of Amelia, but no one knew the mind of The Hopper Family.

If Sawyer proposed to exchange Patrick's life for Amelia, would The Hopper Family agree?

To be honest, Jessica did not think that The Hopper Family would have such a big heart.

Speaking of Patrick, he was not only the husband of Amelia, but also the president of the Roxxon Corporation and the heir of The Hopper Family. If anything happened to him, the Roxxon Corporation and The Hopper Family would definitely be greatly affected as well.

"Have you forgotten the background of my gramps and elder brother? To put it bluntly, my gramps has contributed for the country all his life. While my brother's crippled leg is seen as his merits. If I can't even save my wife and child as a man, they will then be disappointed for real. What's more, The entire Hopper Family recognizes Amy kindness, that they dote on her even more than me. Do you think The Hopper Family is willing to turn a blind eye to her?"

After a pause, Patrick emphasized, "Considering Amy and her child, The Hopper Family and I would save them both!"

After getting her phone back from the cool soldier, Jessica turned to Milton, who also got his phone back and was walking out of the garden, and whispered, "You shouldn't have asked that just now."

Milton took a look at his phone for a moment. After confirming that there was no urgent messages or missed calls, he put the phone back into his trouser pocket and answered Jessica, "Stop pretending. Aren't you also worried that The Hopper Family will turn a blind eye to Amelia?"

Jessica choked, and puffed her cheeks into round buns. "Well, I admit that I thought the same. But I never thought of asking so directly, as it would be too disrespectful to Patrick."

Milton frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "What's more important, his feelings or Amelia's life?"

"Amelia's life is more important of course!" After answering without hesitation, Jessica looked at him angrily and said, "Hey, why do you have such a bad temper? I feel the same as you upon Amelia being missing."

Milton took a deep breath to calm himself down. "I'm sorry, I'm not against you."

Jessica nodded, expressing her acceptance. "I can feel that you're against Patrick. Could it be that... you're still jealous that Amelia chose him?"

Milton denied, "No."

"Yeah..." Jessica grumbled, "I think you're simply wasting your time while guarding us in Houwen Village each day. You should do something more meaningful."

Wayne could not help laughing. "Well, I can't simply leave from my job unless you personally persuade Patrick to transfer me away."

Jessica said anxiously, "I've already tried, but he didn't agree. That's why I told you in private. Even if you left secretly, he wouldn't notice... right?"

"No way, it'll be against the rules." Anyone who had interacted with Wayne knew that he was a playboy who liked to smile. But at the moment, he refused with a serious look, "Please get on the car, Ms. Albert."

On the other side, at Home of Cook.

Returning home, Milton unexpectedly saw a beautiful figure he had missed in the living room. He made a light shout in disbelief, "Maryanne?"

Maryanne was talking with Sierra. When she heard his voice, the smile on her face froze.

"Maryanne, is it really you?!" After making sure that he had not seen it wrongly, Milton quickly walked forwards.

Listening to the footsteps coming nearer, Maryanne knew that she would not be able to avoid it. She turned around and saw Milton fixing his stare at her with an excited yet polite smile.

Maryanne put her hair by the ear uneasily and said hesitantly, "I... I'm here to see Aunt Sierra."

"Ah? Oh... you're always welcomed!" Milton kept staring at her that he almost forgot to answer. Noticing that the cup in her hand was empty, he quickly asked, "Would you like to drink something?" "I'm leaving." In fact, she had specially called Sierra before she came. She had come only after learning that Milton had left for the Land of Fragrance.

"Are you leaving so soon?" If Milton's expression at the moment were to be described by a word, it would probably be "pitiful".

"Yes." Maryanne withdrew her gaze from Milton and turned to look at Sierra. She managed to put on a soft smile again and greeted, "Aunt Sierra, I'm going back."

"Don't you want to stay any longer?" Sierra was reluctant to part with her, as she had long anticipated Maryanne's visit that finally happened.

"No, my brother must be waiting anxiously at home." Probably feeling that her words might sound ambiguous, Maryanne subconsciously added, "I mean, he's waiting for me at home for dinner."

"Alright." Sierra no longer forced her, as to take care of her feelings. In fact, Maryanne being willing to enter the Home of Cook had already pleased Sierra a lot. Although she was still unsure of what was going on between the young couple.

Maryanne put down her cup and stood up. Her bright yellow dress swayed in front of Milton's eyes, giving him a sense of unreality. He subconsciously opened his eyes wide and stared straight at her. "I'll see you out!"
