Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1886

This time, Owen was not fooled. He said, "No matter what you look like, you're my little treasure. I love you very much. Why would I hate you?"

Hearing that, Ashley had another series of tricks. "But I hate myself so much."

She was doing it again!

Owen was highly concentrated. "Why do you hate yourself, baby?"

Ashley sobbed and said, "Because I haven't grown up to be a daddy's ideal. I am just a loser... Boohoo..."

Owen and Andrew were sanctified. It was rare for her to have self-awareness.

But no matter what the two men present thought, Nora's heart was aching. She immediately glared at her husband, asking him to comfort Ashley.

Owen sighed in his heart. "It's not that Nora doesn't know how naughty Ashley is. Why is she still being led around by her?"

However, he did not seem to have the right to speak ill of Nora. This was because once Nora was led away by a Ashley, it would often mean that he would be led around by her. Hence, no matter how one thought about it, it was no different from him being led around by Ashley.

"Ashley, it's Daddy's fault. I shouldn't punish you for not knowing the facts tonight. I apologize to you. Can you forgive Daddy?"

Upon hearing this, Ashley stopped crying. Instead, she held her little red cheeks with her small hands and said to Owen, "But I'm still so sad..."

Torturer!

Owen acknowledged his fate and asked, "What do you want me to do so that you won't be sad?"

Ashley lowered her head and said, "I was too sad to finish my homework after returning. Alas, I guess I will be asked by the teacher to stand behind the classroom tomorrow. My life is so miserable. I was just punished by Daddy, and now I have to be punished by the teacher again..."

As she spoke, her resentful eyes poked at Owen's face.

Owen seemed to have guessed what she was up to. He could not help but lower his head to look at Andrew.

Andrew was confused

At this time, Ashley, who was in in Owen's arms, wiped her tears. The pitiful look in her eyes gradually became strong. "Daddy, please put me down. I still need to take time to do homework."

Her words to Owen and Hopper sounded like "I can still continue making a fuss".

"That's enough, don't make a fuss." Owen had accidentally revealed the truth. After sensing Nora's subtle glance, he quickly coughed and said, "It's already so late, and you're not in a good state. You can copy Andrew's tonight."

Upon hearing this, Andrew was stunned.

Although Nora didn't think it was a good idea to do so, it was already time for the two children to sleep. In her opinion, studying was important, but her health was more important, and Ashley had suffered a lot tonight. Forget it, just let it be.

"I can't do that...” Ashley pretended to refuse, then reluctantly agreed. "But I don't want Daddy and Mommy to worry, so I have to behave well. I'll copy my brother's homework tonight. Daddy, am I obedient?"

Owen's sense of justice made him want to take the Ashley directly into the police station for ideological education, but the little child in his arms was his daughter. When she smiled at him, he felt helpless.

"Yes, Ashley is very obedient," he said against his will.

After hearing that, Ashley finally hugged his neck and whispered in his ear, "Daddy, I'm not angry with you."

"Daddy knows." "You are deliberately torturing me in front of your mommy!"

The latter part of the sentence turned into a pair of eyes that only the father and daughter understood, falling on Ashley.

From Nora's point of view, the interaction between the father and daughter was a symbol of filial piety.

She heaved a sigh of relief, then stood up and touched Andrew's head. She said to Owen, "Honey, it's about time for the babies to rest." "Okay." Owen responded and put Ashley back on the ground.

Originally, Nora was planning to stay behind to accompany Ashley to write her homework... Oh no, it was to copy her homework, but she didn't expect Ashley to raise her head and look at them, "Daddy, Mommy, good night!"

Nora kissed her cheek instead and said gently, "Good night darling."

In the end, she said to Andrew, "Good night Andrew."

After Andrew replied with a "good night", he stared at the adults who were closing the door gently.

The next second, he turned to look at the Ashley. It was as if he was looking at some kind of magical species.

Ashley noticed him and couldn’t help asking him, "Brother, why are you looking at me like this?"

Andrew asked curiously, "How did you do that?"

To think that his righteous father would actually say something like "You can copy Andrew's homework tonight first". This was... unbelievable!

"Do you remember what I said just now? Some people rely on IQ while others rely on EQ. Obviously, I belong to the latter! Hehe, do you suddenly realize that it's useless to study hard?"

Andrew retaliated, "I won't lend you my homework then."

Ashley mourned, "Brother, I'm wrong!"

Ned scratched his head and said honestly, "Brother, you should go to sleep now. I need to set the alarm so that we won’t forget to get up."

"Okay." Daniel slipped into the quilt with the toy car in his arms. Then he saw Ned reach out and took away the alarm clock on the bedside table. After carefully adjusting the alarm clock at 5 o'clock, he also slipped into the quilt with the alarm clock in hand.

The two brothers looked at each other, only to see one of them holding a toy car and the other holding an alarm clock. If they were two children, it was okay, but they were both adults.

Ned chuckled and said, "Brother, I think our roles have changed."

Daniel was stunned for a moment before revealing a smile.

In the past, in order to coax his younger brother to sleep, he would buy toys for his younger brother with the money from his part-time job during holiday. Then, when his younger brother was crying, he would put the toys into his arms.

As for him, in order to get into a good university, he fell asleep with the alarm clock in his high school for three years. He just wanted to get up one hour earlier than others and read books for one more hour.

Ned looked at his brother's face through the flashlight. Seeing that his mood seemed to have stabilized, he was relieved and said, "Brother, go to sleep."

Daniel tightened the toy car in his arms. After nodding to his brother, he turned off the flashlight.

The next second, the ward fell into darkness again.

Perhaps it was because Ned's consolation had worked, but Daniel's consciousness gradually left him and he actually fell asleep.

In a daze, he seemed to hear a ringtone. Daniel, who was dreaming, opened his eyes in a reflective manner. He saw Ned putting the alarm clock back on the bedside table and quietly preparing to leave under the light of the sky outside the window.

"Ned." Daniel called out softly.

Ned looked down at him and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Brother. I didn't mean to wake you up..."

"It's nothing." Daniel lifted the blanket on his body and said, "I'll go with you."

"Ah? You don't have to, right? It's only five o'clock now. Brother, you can sleep a little longer." Ned couldn't bear to see Daniel tired.

"Let's go. I can walk with you."

Daniel stood up and put on the thin coat that had been folded on the chair. He then put the toy car that he had been carrying for the entire night into the coat and finally zipped it.

Fortunately, he had lost a lot of weight recently. So even if there was a toy car hidden in his clothes, others could not see anything.

Seeing that Daniel had made up his mind, Ned did not stop him.

The two brothers took turns to brush their teeth and wash their faces in the cramped bathroom. They opened the door of the ward and were about to leave. As a result, several policemen that were lying on the bench outside immediately woke up.
