Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 408

Coming home from work, Patrick went upstairs as usual to see Amelia first.

Stepping on the stairs, Patrick tilted his gaze slightly at the photo on the wall.

The woman in the picture was wearing a special dress with two braids. She was sitting on an ancient square chair and looking sideways with her eyebrows down as she smelled the fragrance of flowers on the table...

She looked gorgeous.

Every time Patrick saw this picture, he fixed his eyes on it for a long time.

Just as he was admiring it, a dog's barking came from his bedroom. Patrick's face darkened as he seemed to realize something.

When he came to the room, Patrick said as if he had long expected such a thing to happen, "Amelia! You bring this stupid dog to bed again!"

Patrick was a bit of a clean freak. So whenever Rick tried to get close to his bed, he drove it away without mercy.

But Amelia was different. She treated Rick as her sweetpie. When Patrick was not around, she allowed

Rick to jump onto the bed and place its chubby feet on Patrick's pillow!

Patrick's yell froze Amelia and Rick. Amelia quietly pushed Rick's fat ass, and Rick jumped out of bed and obediently lay in the corner.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hopper. I was so bored. I couldn't get out of bed to have fun with Rick, so I accidentally break your rules. I promise I will never do this again. Would you forgive me this time?" Amelia said softly. Since she said so, what else could he say? He could only repeat his answer last time. "This won't happen again. Do you hear me?"

"Yes." Amelia smiled and nodded. Patrick doubted it.

Shaking his head, he gave in a little bit, "When the housekeeper comes, I'll ask her to change the sheets and pillows. You'll get in her way by being here. Do you want me to bring you to the living room?" Amelia's eyes lit up immediately. "Yes! Do it now!"

To Patrick, those words were flirtations. But when he saw her right foot, which was still covered with medicine, he could only hold back his desire and scooped her up from the bed like a gentleman instead of pressing against her and having her.

When they came downstairs, the housekeeper just went into the house. She had long gotten used to

seeing Amelia in Patrick's arms.

Since Amelia's foot was injured, Patrick often walked around with her in his arms like that.

When the housekeeper tried to help Amelia to the toilet, Patrick always did it before the housekeeper could.

At that, the housekeeper from time to time complimented them for being such a loving couple, which often resulted in Amelia blushing.

After lunch, Patrick carried Amelia back upstairs and whispered to her, "Have a good rest. I have to go back to the company."

Before he left, Amelia pressed the back of his hand and asked with concern, "You are always in a hurry these days. The office starts at 2 o'clock, but it's not even 1 o'clock, and you're leaving?" Something flickered in Patrick's eyes, but he said, "I have something to do in the company."

In such an inexplicably awkward air, Amelia let out a smile and asked in a seemingly casual tone, "Is there anything you're hiding from me?"

Patrick frowned and asked, "Do you think there's anything I'm hiding from you?"

"I don't think so, because you're too proud to hide anything from me." After the half-hearted comment, Amelia let go of his hand and said coldly, "Go. I'm going to sleep for a while." "Okay." Patrick reached out to touch her cheek with a complicated look on his face. She had put on weight a little recently, which was probably the happiest thing he had these days. At the President's Office, Roxxon Corporation.

Senior manager A reported, "Mr. Hopper, drinks have been rather popular in our supermarkets this month. We've asked the factories to work around the clock in case we run out of stock. As for

Mr. Quartley's factory, they have very few customers. Mr. Quartley probably has realized that it was meaningless to hold on any longer and has closed his business yesterday."

Senior manager B asked, "Mr. Hopper, do you think that Mr. Quartley is going to stop his meaningless resistance and come to bow down to you?"

Patrick listened quietly and asked with mockery, "Do you think his accumulated wealth of decades could be exhausted in just one month?"

The managers looked at each other. "So..."

Patrick said slowly, "He chose to close his business because he was observing to what point I would stop losing money. He knows very well that businessmen hate losing money the most. So he wants to wait for me to stop before restarting his business. Unfortunately, I haven't had fun yet."

The senior managers were shocked at the word "fun". He had lost 40 or 50 million to have fun!

Patrick continued calmly, "Keep buying drinks from those factories. Since he has decided to retreat, I'm going to follow up a victory with the hot pursuit and leave him no chance to catch a breath at all." Patrick didn't believe that when Ryan was cornered, his son would sit back and watch.

Patrick had been hiding all this from Amelia. Given Amelia and Ryan's relationship, Patrick was worried that Amelia might leak the beans and spoil his plan.

However, subconsciously, what he was most afraid of would be the unforgiving look in her eyes...

It was good that her foot was injured and she could only stay at home without being part of these things. Otherwise, she would have long found out his plan against Ryan.

Time went by so quickly. Before they knew it, another half a month had passed.

It was almost the end of the year. Pestered by Amelia, the housekeeper had no choice but to allow her to go out for some fresh air. But her condition was that Amelia had to go home before Patrick came back from work.

Amelia answered shortly. "I see. Bye!"

The housekeeper followed her anxiously to the door and said, "Don't be in such a hurry!"

Although her foot had healed, it was still inconvenient for Amelia to use the accelerator and the treadmill when driving. So she took the bus and went to the hospital to visit Gilbert.

Just as she was about to walk into Gilbert's ward, Amelia was surprised to see Kaleb saying something in Gilbert's ear. In less than two seconds, Gilbert rolled his eyes before his hands began to twitch violently!

"Dad!" Amelia screamed, regardless of anything else, pushed open the door, and rushed in!

Kaleb was startled by her sudden arrival. "Oh, Amelia, what do you think you're doing?"
