Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1912

George did not know whether she had taken his words to heart. He could not help but shake his head in his heart and walked towards Amelia and the rest.

The last to come forward was the youngest Ned.

The young man's eyes were swollen and red from crying. He was standing in front of Brittany, who was calm and composed.

Ned, who wanted to comfort his sister-in-law, became the one who should be consoled.

Brittany, who heard the sobbing, looked up at the young man in front of her.

Ned called softly, "Sister-in-law..."

Brittany seemed to be looking at someone through him. "You look like him."

Upon hearing this, Ned was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that Brittany was saying that he looked similar to Daniel. He couldn't help but nod. "He's my older brother. Of course, we look alike!"

His tone showed that he was quite proud.

Brittany curled her lips and suddenly lowered her voice. "Remember to visit your brother and me more often in the future."

Hearing this, Ned hurriedly nodded, "I will!"

Brittany immediately regained her composure and said, "You can bow now."

Ned quickly bowed to her. In fact, he should have stood together with Brittany as Daniel's brother.

However, Brittany's possessiveness towards Daniel was terrifying. She had said that Daniel belonged to her alone, and Ned could not even have a share.

Fortunately, Ned had a big heart. He could tell that Brittany was not being perfunctory in holding the funeral for his elder brother, so he didn't make a fuss about it.

After that, it was about staying the night for Daniel.

Of course, Brittany and Ned had to stay.

George and Alice did not leave either.

Patrick asked Amelia if she would like to go back first.

Amelia said softly, "Mr. Hopper, if I can't hold on any longer, I will tell you."

Patrick heard that she was going to stay, so he pointed to a chair next to him and said, "Then you go over there, or I'll take you home right away."

Hearing that, Amelia had to take a seat aside obediently.

In this regard, no one blamed her.

It was a favor that Amelia was willing to stay to keep watch at night. Besides, her body was so heavy. George and his wife also tried to persuade her to go back.

However, they were all rejected gently by Amelia.

Brittany had not moved since she knelt on the praying mat. The incense and candles in the mourning hall were changed in batches. Due to their formation, the entire funeral hall was very bright even without a lamp.

The staff was not idle either. They were chanting scriptures, mourning, kneeling, burning paper money...

People would burn paper money in a few portions, but Brittany was different. She ordered the workers to directly burn the paper money in a melting pot, which was as high as two people. The fire was very intense. The staff threw paper money, paper men, paper cars, and paper houses into the pot and they were all burned immediately.

Seeing that everything had been turned into ashes, the staff immediately repeated what they had just done and added a lot more...

Instantly, smoke soared into the sky, as if it could pierce through the clouds and reach the deceased.

When it was one o'clock in the morning, Patrick said to Amelia in a low voice, "Amy, it's too late. It's time to go back."

Amelia blinked and said, "I'm not sleepy yet."

Patrick stared at her tired eyes, frowned, and said, "You go back first, I'll guard for you."

Amelia shook her head. "Isn't it

inappropriate?"

Patrick said strongly, "What's wrong with it? I'm you, and you're me. I'll guard it for you. Who dares to object?"

"That's not what I meant..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by him. "Amy, don't force me to pack you and send you back. Be obedient."

Amelia was shocked by the threat in his eyes and stopped insisting.

After all, Ellison was not only her son, but also his. If anything happened to her, she could not bear the responsibility.

"Well, I'll go and tell dad and the others, and then I'll go back with you."

"Okay." Patrick's face relaxed a lot.

As for Amelia's wish to leave early, George and his wife naturally raised both hands in agreement.

In the car.

Before driving, Patrick said, "Amy, if you're tired, you can sleep first. I'll drive slowly. After I take you home, I'll come back again."

Amelia said guiltily, "Mr. Hopper, you don't have to do this. You have nothing to do with Daniel. You really don't have to..."

Patrick pinched her chin gently and looked at her seriously, "Amy, if you are not pregnant, will you guard him until dawn?"

Amelia said frankly, "I didn't do it all for him."

Patrick emphasized, "Anyway, as long as you want, I will help you realize it."

Hearing this, Amelia had to say, "Please take care of dad and Alice for me. I don't want them to be too tired."

"I know."

At the mention of Brittany's instructions, the staff immediately replied, "Nothing much!"

Patrick did not ask any further.

At this time, George, who was having breakfast at the side, looked at the slender figure kneeling on the futon for a long time. He suddenly turned to ask Alice, "Did she kneel all night?"

Alice sighed. "Don't you know it? Why did you ask me?"

George thought, "Don't you understand the meaning of my words? I'm hinting at you to call Brittany over for breakfast!”

Fortunately, in the next second, Alice asked, "George, do you think I should call her over for breakfast?”

George's heart skipped a beat, but his face turned away. "Don't ask me."

Seeing this, Alice sighed again. "Can't I do that?"

George was speechless. He said that she shouldn't ask him, it meant that he would let her do it. Was it difficult to understand?

Alice said, "I've never seen her act like this before. I feel that she's not like our daughter anymore. I actually don't know if I should be happy or sad."

George was silent.

At this time, Brittany's upper body shook slightly and Alice was so shocked that she stood up at once. ”... George, I'm sorry. I can't just watch her and do nothing. If you want to blame me, just be it. I'll bring her breakfast!"

After saying that, Alice picked up the breakfast ordered by Patrick and walked to Brittany.

George secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Actually, he did not really want Brittany to suffer either. As long as she continued to live her life, it was better than anything else.

On the other side, Alice came to Brittany's side. She tried to persuade her, but Brittany did not respond. Then, she began to ask hurriedly, "Brittany, you have been kneeling for a whole night, and you ate and drank nothing yesterday afternoon. Can you bear it?"

"Do you want to starve yourself to death so that you can be with Daniel?"

"Don't you understand why I, your father, and your sister are willing to come to Daniel's funeral?"

"We are not only doing this for Daniel, but also for you! Look back, your father and I have always been behind you!"

"Did you hear what I said? Brittany!"

Alice was really going crazy because Brittany's face was even paler than a dead man's. If it weren't for her wide-open eyes, she would have thought that her child had followed Daniel!

Brittany finally replied in a hoarse voice, "Please keep your voice down. I don't want to bother Daniel."

Alice sensed the alienation in her words and became even more furious. "You're really crazy! What's so good about him? He used you to hurt you, so it's not worth it for you to do this for him!"

Brittany lowered her head slightly and said, "He's already dead. Please save your breath. You can consider it as accumulating virtue for your daughter, okay?"

Alice's heart was bleeding. "Well, well, just go on and protect him!"

In the end, her heart softened. "As long as you eat these snacks, I will not say anything. You can do anything you like, okay?"
