Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1691

As for Sawyer, he did not stay at Sissi's side but came to see her. So Amelia guessed that he should have wanted to express goodwill to her, as if he had had a conflict with Sissi because of her.

However, she had done all that on purpose.

In the past two days, she had meticulously dressed up, invited him to read together and stay for lunch. It was because she knew that Sissi would be suspicious of it, not to mention that she deliberately fell to leave lipstick and perfume on his shirt. As long as Sissi paid some attention, she would immediately notice it.

But for the moment, she could only pretend to sympathize with Sawyer and that she owed it to him. So he would then think that he had achieved his goal of acting pitiful in front of her and leaving a good impression on her.

"Umm, I didn't expect that there would be such a big contradiction between you and Sissi because of my fault."

She "sincerely" apologized while glancing at the bowl in his hand, and then carefully asked, "Were you not only slapped by her, but also driven out with an empty stomach?"

Sawyer pretended to be fine. "It's because I didn't tell her your background in advance, so such a misunderstanding occurred."

"I know. You didn't say it because you were afraid that she might think too much. After all, no one would want their former rival in love to become a relative of their current partner. As it is truly embarrassing."

Amelia's words sounded fine, but if anyone looked into them carefully, he could have noticed her sarcasm towards Sissi two-timing.

Sawyer could not refute her and said, "Well, let's not talk about her. Let's eat."

"Okay," Amelia answered and pushed all the delicious food from in front of her to him. "You've been on the way for so long today. Eat more. And, call the doctor over to apply some ointment for you later. Your face is swollen. She seems to be really heavy-handed..."

She had said the latter half very softly, for fear of provoking Sawyer.

Her concern made Sawyer think that his sadfishing had probably succeeded as the intention of his visit. So he was in a good mood for a moment.

The doctor who came to apply ointment for Sawyer was the same one who had done the DNA test for Sawyer and Amelia.

Sawyer's cheek was red and swollen, obviously being slapped by others. So the doctor could not help but turn to look at Amelia while his eyes were filled with admiration.

He thought that she was really amazing to be able to hit Sawyer twice without getting any trouble.

Before leaving, the doctor left Sawyer with a tube of ointment, asking him to apply it three times a day. He ensured that he would then recover to his flourishing beauty.

Amelia pursed her lips after listening from the side. She was not worrying about Sawyer. Instead, she found it very funny and satisfying to see him with a red mark.

Amelia lightly said as she saw that Sawyer was preparing to leave, "Why don't you stay here today? Don't go back, lest she vent her anger on you again."

Sawyer frowned upon her words, wondering whether she was helping him or troubling him?

Amelia then let out a laugh, "Fine, I knew that you men are all against your heart. Since you like being beaten and scolded so much, go ahead. Remember to take the ointment with you, lest you come to me again later."

Her words suppressed Sawyer's wariness that had just risen. He picked up the ointment and said, "Sissi has minded me coming here to you. If I don't go back now, she'll probably explode again. But as we agreed, you'll have to cook for me tomorrow noon, so I'll come by then."

Amelia gave him a sidelong glance and asked in disbelief, "You've been in a huge conflict with her. Could you still come again?"

Sawyer put on a hypocritical smile. "For you, I have to come no matter what."

"Alright, then see you." She could also take the chance to think of a way to worsen the conflict between Sissi and Sawyer.

Sissi immediately sat upright in the living room as she heard the sound of steady and powerful footsteps behind her. It was not until Sawyer called her name that she pretended to be indifferent and reluctant while looking back. She looked at him and said coldly, "You said to explain to me, yet you've got lost for another half day!"

Sawyer walked towards her with his hands behind his back. He then suddenly took out the bouquet of 99 blue roses hidden behind him. "I actually went to buy flowers for you. Look, do you like them?"

Sissi looked at the dream-like bouquet in his hand and could not help but smile. But the next second, she appeared to be angry and pretended to be in disdain. "To seek for my forgiveness with just some flowers? No way!"

Then, she glanced at his shirt, and got angry for real. "Are you still wearing it?!"

Sawyer put down the bouquet and began to unbutton his shirt. After a while, he took off his shirt and threw it on the floor, wearing only a tight vest on his upper body.

Sissi finally tried to calm herself down. But she still said with a straight face, "I have something to ask you. Sit down!"

Sawyer sat down as asked to.

Sissi pointed at the report on the tea table and asked for the last time, "Tell me the truth, is Amelia really your sister?"

"We've gone through a scientific identification. How would it be false? To be exact, she is my half-sister, as she is my father's illegitimate daughter."

Then a hint of malice flashed across Sissi's eyes. "That is to say that, she is a b*stard?"

"Yes." responded Sawyer in an almost inaudible manner.

Sissi was relieved and started to stir up Sawyer. "Since she's a b*stard, why don't you just get rid of her? Or she'll fight you for the family property later!"

"Since you are so protective of your sister, you can go and live with her! I wouldn't mind!"

Out of impulse, Sissi stomped on the blue roses on the ground in anger. Not long after, the beautiful yet fragile plant had broken into pieces.

Sawyer watched her with cold eyes. Only until Sissi stopped because of exhaustion then he said. "She's right, I really shouldn't have come back."

Sissi raised her head with a whoosh as she heard this. But before she could question about it, Sawyer stood up from the sofa and slowly walked towards the bedroom.

"Stop! Where are you going?" Sissi asked anxiously.

Sawyer stood still and said coldly, "Didn't you ask me to leave?"

Sissi choked and was further overwhelmed with jealousy. "You said that you went to buy flowers for me. But in fact, you went to see her secretly, while she even asked you not to come back, ha..."

Sawyer frowned, but he no longer felt like answering her.

After a while...

Sawyer changed into a black shirt and came out of the bedroom. He even hung a suit jacket on his forearm.

Sissi immediately had a bad feeling .

Sure enough, Sawyer passed through the living room without saying a word and walked straight to the door.

Following that was the sound of the door closing. Sissi's entire body shook as she thought in disbelief, had Sawyer... really left?

She refused to believe and rushed to the door. For a long time, Sawyer had been like an obedient toy boy in her heart. He would always listen to her orders and satisfy all her needs. That was why she had lost her temper with him. As she believed that no matter how she acted, he would eventually give in to her. Yet he had really left for the moment...

"Why are you here again?" Amelia actually asked in shock, as she truly did not expect that Sawyer had once again fallen into conflict with Sissi.

After Sawyer threw himself onto the sofa, he suppressed his anger and asked, "Can we change it to tonight regarding the home-cooked dishes agreed on tomorrow noon?"

"Sure, I'll go and see what we have in the kitchen." Amelia would definitely not provoke him at such a moment. She decided to be a quiet listener, to make Sawyer more disappointed in Sissi.

While Amelia not asking further had indeed made Sawyer feel relieved. As it could be reasonable for a man to act pitiful for once, but it would lose cool for the second time.
