Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 2007

When Safa kneeled on the ground to express her apology, Ruth, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at her coldly. She held the dignity of a hostess and did not stop.

Even so, let alone Ryan, if it wasn't illegal to kill someone, he would have hired a killer a long time ago.

Under the pressure of the two masters, Safa's back was arched like a hill. Tears and sweat kept rolling down her chin and gradually formed a small pool on the tiles.

After a while-

Seeing that her forehead was almost bleeding from knocking on the floor, Ruth said, "Okay, stop for a while."

In a daze, Safa stopped and looked at them with fear.

"Tell me the details about what happened back then."

Ruth glared at Ryan as if she was saying, "If she says something different than you, then you're done for."

Ryan's expression turned solemn and serious.

Ruth rolled her eyes and looked at Safa again, waiting for her to continue.

What Safa had told her next was almost the same as what Ryan had told her before. Ruth couldn't tell whether she was relieved or even more aggrieved.

The fact that her husband and maid had cheated on each other had been kept a secret for more than 20 years. During this period, this woman, who was kneeling on the ground, crying and repenting, appeared in her life in various ways, unscrupulously getting close to her husband, her son, and her grandson!

Thinking of this, Ruth felt that Safa was not only shrewd but also vicious. "So many years have passed. What kind of intention do you have to hide in the Home of Quartley?"

After Safa swallowed her saliva, she replied obediently, "Madam, I just want to atone for

my sins."

"Do you think I believe it?"

With a sparkle in her eyes, Safa said, "Madam, I didn't lie to you... Over the years, I've been working hard in the Home of Quartley and never dared do anything wrong.

In the end, I even took the initiative to follow the Old Master to the Streams Villa. I took care of him and the young master wholeheartedly.

These... are all witnessed by the people on the island. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them."

Ruth snorted and said, "I haven't figured you out yet. You don't have to drag someone to clean yourself up in a hurry."

Safa shut her mouth in embarrassment.

Ruth immediately turned to look at Ryan with an unexpected smile on her face.

Ryan thought that he had seen wrongly.

In the next second, Ruth reached out her hand to touch his face which was slapped. "Ryan, I misunderstood you before. Does it still hurt

here?"

Ryan was flattered and looked at her. "No, it doesn't hurt at all!"

"That's good." Ruth smiled softly again. She glanced at Safa's increasingly pale face from the corner of her eyes, and her voice became softer. "What's wrong with you? You were framed by such a person to do such a dirty thing, and you didn't discuss the solution with me afterward. Are you so afraid that I will be angry with you?"

Ryan said in a hurry, "Of course I'm afraid. Our marriage is so sweet. If there's a estrangement in this kind of thing, how do you want me to live the rest of my life?"

"It's precisely because we love each other that you have to tell me the truth. You have to know that love that can't withstand the test can't really be considered true love. What do you think, Ryan?"

Ryan nodded excitedly. "You're right. You're right!"

While the two of them were expressing their love for each other, Ruth moved the corners of her eyes quietly again. She saw that Safa's ten fingers were curled up on the tiles, as if she was enduring something.

Ruth's smile turned cold.

Why hadn't she noticed such obvious signs before?

After being so intimate with Ryan for such a short period of time, Safa had already minded it. It could be seen that she had been coveting her husband for more than 20 years! Unfortunately, it was a peaceful age now, and they couldn't punish the servants at will. Ruth thought about it and suddenly said to Safa, "You said that you stayed here to atone for your sins. Well, from today on, you will come back to serve us."

For a moment, Safa could not care less about her status. She looked at her in astonishment.

Ryan was even more anxious. "Ruth, why are you keeping her here?"

"Don't speak for now." Ruth signaled to Ryan before continuing to say to Safa, "Did I wrong you by making such an arrangement?"

Safa shook her head quickly.

She looked as if she was on the verge of tears. She looked rather pitiful.

No wonder... Ryan had mistaken her for someone else.

Thinking of this, Ruth couldn't help but smile bitterly. She adjusted herself silently and then said, "Since you don't feel wrong, then it's settled. I think you don't have to go back tonight. Just stay here. Anyway, we kept your room for you."

Seeing the shame on Safa's face, Ruth pretended to mention unintentionally, "Ryan said he was going to tear it down, but I stopped him."

Hearing that, Safa couldn't raise her head anymore.

What Ruth wanted was that she couldn't lift her head!

Ryan shook his head with a wry smile. "Why would I feel sorry for her?"

After putting down her hair, Ruth picked up the comb and combed her head. "But she gave birth to a good daughter for you, didn't she? If I remember correctly, you used to say that you would accept Miss Amelia Ramsay as your daughter. Now that your dream has come true, you should be happy."

Ryan didn't want to deny this. "Amelia is my daughter, and it's indeed a pleasant surprise for me."

In fact, Ruth didn't hold any grudge against Amelia. This was not only because he had saved Ryan's life, but also because he had been kidnapped by Sawyer. Now that this happened again, their family owed Amelia too much.

After putting the comb on the table, she asked, "During this period of time, did you always go to Miss Amelia Ramsay to persuade her to return to her ancestral roots?"

Ryan sighed. "It would be great if she was willing."

"You deserve it. I wouldn't want to if I was her." Ruth said as she stood up straight and walked to the bathroom.

Ryan was afraid that she would do something stupid in a place he couldn't see, so he hurriedly said, "Ruth, if you're angry with me, you vent your anger on me. Don't keep it in your heart."

Ruth stopped in her tracks and said expressionlessly, "Don't worry. I won't stand on ceremony with you."

*

The next day.

While Ryan and Ruth were having breakfast, Ruth asked Safa to serve them.

Safa didn't sleep well all night. At this time, she still had to look at the intimate relationship between the man she loved and the hostess. Her mood couldn't help but rise and fall.

Suddenly, Ruth put down the knife and fork in her hand and said to her, "Come with me to a place later."

Safa stopped filling Ruth's glass with milk and replied, "Yes."

Ryan asked, "Ruth, where are you going?"

Ruth smiled at him gently. "The Ramsay Family."

"What?!" Ryan exclaimed in surprise.

As for Safa, she began to tremble subconsciously.

Ruth looked at him and then looked at Safa. She said lightly, "Why are you nervous? She is Miss Amelia Ramsay's birth mother. I will take her to Miss Amelia Ramsay. Is there any problem?"

"The main reason is that Amelia doesn't like her at all, let alone want to see her." Ryan frowned.
