Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 2037

"Uncle Quartley, did you hire a lawyer for Sawyer?" Amelia asked.

"Ah, no!" Ryan immediately denied, "It was Ruth who hired the lawyer, and it wasn't me who told him to do so. Please don't misunderstand!"

He was eager to get rid of the suspicious clumsy look, which was really a little funny. Amelia couldn't help but smile.

Ryan was stunned when he saw this. He was afraid that his daughter would mock or sneer at him, so he became even more nervous and careful. "Amelia, what's wrong?"

Amelia knew that there seemed to be some misunderstanding, so she returned to normal and said, "It's nothing. I believe what you said. Is there anything else, Uncle Quartley?"

After Ryan heaved a sigh of relief, he made an unexpected request. "Can I treat you to a meal?"

"Now?" Amelia looked at him in surprise.

"Yes!" Ryan nodded.

George, who was standing to one side, immediately said unhappily, "Mr. Quartley, don't go too far. Don't you know that Amelia has nothing to do with you now? Also, your son has just been sentenced. Why are you bothering my daughter instead of caring about him?"

"I know that the two identification reports must have been forged by you and the hospital," Ryan retorted gently but firmly. "George, we're both fathers. I'm sure you understand what I feel now. I've lost a son. Please don't make me lose a daughter again, okay?"

These words touched George's memory of Brittany. He was stunned and forgot to reply for a moment.

During this period, Amelia exchanged glances with Patrick silently. Seeing that he had no objections, she said to Ryan, "Well then, Uncle Quartley, where do you want to go for a meal? I'll go with you."

Ryan quickly took out his phone and said, "I'll arrange it."

When he called to make a reservation, Ruth was coming back while holding Abner's hand.

Since she wasn't in a good mood, she couldn't be bothered to tell Ryan, who was on the phone with his back facing her, that she had returned. Her expression changed when she heard Ryan's instructions on the phone.

After Ryan hung up the phone, she immediately asked, "Ryan, I just heard that you made a reservation for two at the western restaurant. Who are you going to have a meal with?"

Ryan didn't expect Ruth to be back so soon. He hastily glanced at Amelia and said, "I..."

Amelia suddenly became silent. "I asked Uncle Quartley out for a meal as I have something to talk to him about. I hope you won't mind."

Hearing this, Ryan's eyes widened in shock. He didn't dare to think that Amelia would cover for him.

At this time, Ruth said, "Miss Amelia Ramsay, such a big thing has just happened to our family. I don't know what else you want to say to my husband. If you don't mind, why don't you let me follow you?"

"I think this is a private matter between me and Uncle Quartley, so it's better that you don't get involved in this."

Amelia looked polite and distant. Since Ruth could hire such a lawyer for Sawyer, she had nothing to say to her. She believed that Ruth also felt the same way.

Being humiliated by Amelia on the spot, coupled with what just happened to Sawyer, Ruth couldn't hold on no matter how tolerant she was!

She simply went to ask for an explanation from Ryan. "Ryan, do you want to go back with me, or do you want to have a meal with Miss Amelia Ramsay?"

"Ruth, it's actually me who asked Amelia out for a meal," Ryan looked at her and said honestly.

After an awkward silence-

"...Good, very good! Then you and your daughter should enjoy the celebration!" Ruth used the last bit of her strength to finish her words and left with Abner.

Safa, who was following behind her, quickly caught up with her.

Amelia felt sad when she heard that. "Don't say that. It will be fine."

It will be fine?

Ryan smiled bitterly once again. "After today, Patrick will definitely ask the media to report the matter of Sawyer being put in jail. That way, it's even more impossible for you to reunite with me, right?"

"In fact, what's the meaning of doing so?"

As soon as Amelia finished speaking, Ryan's eyes lit up.

"Amelia, do you mean... you have recognized me as your father in your heart?"

Even if Amelia had a little pity for him, she couldn't answer him like this. Otherwise,

George would be anxious if he knew it.

"Uncle Quartley, let's drink some coffee." As she spoke, she raised the Mocha beside her and toasted him.

"Amelia." Ryan immediately looked at her pitifully. He was very scheming.

Amelia's eyes flickered. "Uncle Quartley, please don't use this move. You know it doesn't work."

Ryan didn't give up and asked, "What should I do in exchange for your forgiveness? Tell me, and I'll do it."

"I don't need you to do anything. The reason why I promised to have a meal with you today is that you didn't intervene in the lawsuit between me and Sawyer. As for the rest..."

Amelia looked down at the exquisite table cloth in front of her. Unfortunately, the eyes from the opposite side were so desolate that she couldn't ignore them even if she wanted to. In the end, she said mysteriously, "We can do it slowly."
