Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1918

Although George and his wife were mentally prepared, when they heard Amelia's words, they still could not help but feel surprised. "He got the deal?”

"Yes!” Amelia nodded and said, "It's on the TV news right now. It was Freddy, the chief manager of the Easthern District project, who announced it. I don't think it should be false."

Alice immediately put down the fabric that she had cut halfway in her hand and said to George, "Let's go and take a look too!"

"Okay!" George replied.

When the family of three was in front of the TV, Freddy was still talking. He said, "The start-up funds of the Easthern District project are abundant, and there will be no need for other investors."

Hearing this, many investors felt their scalps go numb. They wondered if Patrick was going to take it down alone? Huh?

Not only did he win the Easthern District project, but he also abandoned the investors. He was so greedy!

However, no matter how they cursed at the company or at home, Freddy's words "I volunteer to seek cooperation" were like a curse above their heads, making them have no reason to find fault with Patrick at all.

George and his wife, who were also guarding in front of the TV, had completely different expressions on their faces compared to the bosses of other construction companies and investors.

George patted his thigh and said, "Patrick is really impressive! I must have a drink with him tonight!"

Since the death of Brittany, it was the first time Amelia had seen George so happy. So she went along with his idea and said, "Well, I'll ask the chef to add dishes tonight. It's a celebration feast for Mr. Hopper and Apex Construction Corporation."

George nodded repeatedly. "That's right, that's right. Add a few more dishes that Patrick

likes to eat!"

Amelia held her belly and said with a smile, "Then I will go to the kitchen now, lest I forget later."

Alice saw that it was not convenient for her to walk and immediately stepped forward to help her. "I'll go with you."

Before Amelia left, she gave a signal to the servants on both sides with her eyes and asked them to stay close to George.

At noon, when Patrick got off work and returned to the Ramsay residence, Amelia immediately came forward and looked at him with a smile.

Seeing this, Patrick immediately guessed something and asked, "You saw today's news?"

"Yes!" Amelia held his hand and said while walking inside, "Mr. Hopper, you're really awesome. You said that it would belong to Apex Construction Corporation and it did. You were not bluffing at all!"

Patrick seized the opportunity to pinch her soft hand. "Didn't you know this long ago?"

"Although that's the case, I was still very excited when Freddy announced this in person in front of the TV. This is all your credit."

Speaking of this, Amelia couldn't help but turn back and smile at him. Her smile was filled with gratitude and touching, which made Patrick's heart turn soft.

"By the way, Mr. Hopper," Amelia immediately said, "I left the original drawings for the Easthern District projects by Kaiden on Land of Fragrance. Could you find a time to get it? I think you will need it."

Patrick asked, "Is that kid that good?"

Amelia said, "It is said that he is a genius in this field. When Freddy was willing to hand over the Easthern District project to Apex Construction Corporation, it was all because of him and the other person."

Patrick automatically ignored "the other person". "Well, since you trust him, I'll find a time to go back to the Land of Fragrance and find the design drawings."

Although he said so, Patrick did not intend to rashly use Kaiden's drawings.

Next, he would invite some world- famous architectural designers to come over. First, he would find faults with Kaiden's drawings, and then he would come out with a perfect one. In this way, he could not only step on the Kaiden in front of Amy but also raise his own image in Amy's mind, killing two birds with one stone.

Because Patrick had to go to work in the afternoon, George did not mention drinking during lunch. He only ate half a bowl of rice more than usual. He looked really happy.

Seeing this, Patrick and Amelia looked at each other and smiled.

Before Patrick went to work, Amelia specially reminded him, "If there's nothing else, come back early after work."

"Dad wants to drink with you," Amelia thought that it would be better to leave George to tell him this.

Patrick lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Okay, I promise I'll be back on time after work."

"Okay." Amelia waved at him. "Drive carefully."

Patrick bent over and gently touched her belly before he left the house.

Amelia watched him leave and turned to the living room. Alice was gesticulating on the cloth with a soft ruler as if measuring the height of a newborn baby.

Turning around, Amelia saw Alice's white hair. She thought that it had been more than half a month. Wasn't Alice going to dye her hair back?

She walked forward and sat next to Alice.

When Alice saw her, she immediately pointed at the blue cloth on her lap and asked, "Amelia, quickly help me take a look. Is this color suitable for Sicily?"

Alice was such a gentle person. As long as she said "not suitable" or "not good-looking",

Hearing this, Alice could not help but nod her head.

Like the last time, Amelia retreated ten steps, so that she could not only watch Alice but also not eavesdrop on her.

This was the first time that Alice had been standing calmly in front of Brittany's tomb. Yes, the first time she had been here, she had cried until she had fainted. The next few times, she had not been able to stand it, let alone come in person.

Today, she finally showed up again. Although her heart was still heavy, at least she would not feel the sense of "hitting herself to death in front of Brittany's tomb".

"Brittany, look..." Alice looked at Brittany's photo and took off the cap that Amelia specially put on her with one hand. Her white hair fell down and she said, "This is mom's white hair for you."

"In the past, I used to think that it was absurd to get old overnight until it happened to me. You always blamed me and your dad for caring only about your sister, not caring about you. But now? Do you still think so?"

Alice's fingertips touched Brittany's photo. "It's because I cared so much about you that I let you do things as you pleased. If I can reverse the time..."

At this point, Alice's voice became regretful. "It's a pity that there is no 'if'."

She then turned to look at the spot next to Brittany. "I'm sure you're happy to be buried with Daniel, aren't you? You said that you don't wish to be born on the same day as Daniel, but to die on the same day as him."

"It's a pity that you didn't manage to keep the child. Otherwise, I would have a grandson. You and Daniel are both good-looking, and so do your sister and your brother-in-law. The children you give birth to will definitely look good as well."

After Alice fantasized about the two delicate little kids playing around her, she said, "Your sister just advised me to dye my hair back, but I thought it became white for you. It doesn't seem very good to not tell you, so I came."

The surroundings were quiet, and there was not even a sound of the wind. Brittany did not seem to be against Alice doing this.

In response, Alice returned with a faint smile. "From now on, I will start a new life, but you don't have to be afraid that I will forget you because of this. You will always be my most cherished treasure."

"Amelia, we can go now."

"All right."

"I want to dye my hair back. Accompany me."

"All right!"

The secretary was standing in front of Patrick's desk. She asked shrewdly, "Mr. Hopper, what can I do for you?"
