Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1697

Amelia could not help but said as she saw Sawyer looked emotional, "I'm fine now. Thank you for helping me stop the bleeding and put on the bandaid."

Sawyer had been in a bad mood after suddenly thinking of Patrick. When he heard Amelia's gentle thanks, his expression eased, "Are you able to stand up now?"

Amelia nodded.

In the next instant, Sawyer straightened his back and extended his hand towards her, clearly wanting to pull her up from the ground.

Amelia thought for a while and reluctantly stretched her uninjured hand to him.

Sawyer then exerted some strength and easily pulled her up.

As for the broken pot of lavender on the ground, Sawyer refrained Amelia from touching it after he said he would let someone clean it up.

Other than that, in order to take care of her feelings, he added, "I will buy you some new pots of lavender tomorrow morning and you can decorate your room as you like. Stop feeling wronged, okay?"

Wait?

What had she felt wronged about?

Amelia looked at him with some confusion. She was just frightened by his stare at her belly, so she had accidentally knocked down the lavenders.

But he seemed to have misunderstood that it was because she could not go back to the Home of Quartley immediately to see her family that she had stumbled in depression and knocked down the lavenders.

However, she would not be that foolish to explain to him the difference between them. She just said "yes" softly, then raised her face and said to him expectantly, "Then I'll see you tomorrow."

"Alright." Sawyer smiled. "Let's leave first so we won't have our feet hurt by the pieces on the ground."

"Well, I don't feel like going to the library today. I want to play golf. Can you teach me?" Amelia asked after leaving the room.

"Do you still need me to teach you?" Sawyer looked at her deeply. Considering her background and experience, he would not believe that she did not know how to play golf!

Amelia said ambiguously, "I have played with Kaiden before and his skills were quite good. Since you are the person he admires the most, you should play better than him, so I wish to learn from you."

After her explanation, Sawyer no longer had a reason to doubt her. "So that's how it is. Alright then, I'll give you a crash course on golf today so that next time you play with Kaiden, you'll be able to defeat him."

"That's great!" Amelia could not help but smile. But in her heart, she was thinking of something completely the opposite—

She had once again successfully made Sawyer stay, and Sissi would probably be so angry that she would lose her mind!

Day after day, regardless of whether it was true or fake, acting or feeling, Amelia and Sawyer's relationship had gradually become closer. But what about Sissi?

Since her return after meeting Amelia, she had not been on speaking terms with Sawyer. It was not that she did not want to talk to Sawyer, but she truly felt disturbed in her heart!

Every time she was going say something to Sawyer, Amelia's face

would uncontrollably appear in her mind. She would also think of the words Amelia had said that day, such as Sawyer sending lavenders to her and accompanying her to watch movies till midnight, which made her sick!

For countless times, she had thought that Sawyer would come to coax her or tell her that Amelia had made up the entire story, but he did not!

His love and patience for her seemed to have completely vanished overnight, making her feel a chill in her heart.

Rome was not built in a day. But Sissi thought that Sawyer's cold attitude towards her was out of the blue. She was not aware that it was because she had gradually downgraded her image in Sawyer's mind, and she had also destroyed the wonderful memories she had shared with Sawyer step by step. It was the most heartbreaking for men to see their 'goddess' degrading into 'an ordinary person'.

Sissi had only focused on putting all the blame on Amelia. If it were not for the woman, Sawyer would still have all his attention on her, and they would have lived a happy life.

Therefore, she must get rid of Amelia!

Such thought had been in Sissi's mind since she came back that day and she could not bear it any longer. After Sawyer went out once again, she took her phone and dialed a number she had thought she would never contact again for the rest

of her life.

On the Land of Fragrance.

"Boss, look at the cloud pattern I carved on the armrest. Isn't it good?"

The person speaking was an old man with gray hair. He was the most famous carpenter in Northville. It was said that his ancestors had worked as carpenters for the emperor in the palace, proving their amazing craftsmanship!

Meanwhile, he was working on a purely handmade couch according to the blueprint given by Patrick. Patrick was walking back after going to the washroom.

Patrick hastened his pace and walked up to him as he heard the carpenter's question. Patrick took over the armrest handed to him and looked at it carefully. He found that the newly carved cloud on it was so vivid and amazing!

"We..." The special forces looked at each other and finally shook their heads in unison.

So Owen put on his friendly smile again as he reached out to pat them on the shoulder and said, "That's more like it. Well, I'll tell gramps about your attentiveness to duties. I guarantee that he will put in a good word for your leaders."

The special forces were all surprised while Owen and Patrick entered the house and closed the door.

Patrick was confused by Owen's actions. "Owen, what the h*ll are you doing?"

"I..." Owen was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of Mr. Lucas working in the living room. So he could not help saying, "Let's talk upstairs."

"Okay." Patrick then led Owen upstairs.

After the two stood still, Patrick said, "Owen, what exactly do you want to say to me?"

Owen finally put his hand into his pocket and took out a mobile phone as he saw that there was no one around. "Patrick, get this back."

Patrick took a closer look and realized that it was his phone.

"Owen, you said that you would help me keep the phone until you got any news about Amy. And now..." He got surprised and could not help but ask loudly, "Is there news from Amy?!"

In the face of his excitement, Owen chose to give a careful reply, in case he would be more disappointed after having too much hopes. He said, "I can't guarantee it to you now, but it's true that I had a breakthrough."

"What breakthrough?" Patrick asked anxiously.

Owen glanced at the phone and said, "Your phone rang an hour ago. I saw that it was a strange number at that time, so I asked the technicians to listen to the call with me. But the caller hung up the moment I picked up the phone. I guess that the caller might know from my voice that it was not you and eventually hung up the phone."

Patrick quickly took the phone from Owen's hand and immediately opened the call record. He saw the first number on it, indeed without any contact details.

Looking at it, Patrick somehow felt the phone number familiar, but he could not remember who it was for a moment. "Owen... Have you found out the owner of this strange number?"

Owen nodded with a look of relief. "Yes. The owner of this number is said to be Sissi."

Patrick's eyes widened in shock. That was right! It was Sissi's mobile phone number. No wonder he felt it familiar. But since he had loved Amy with all his heart, he had deleted Sissi's number.
