Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) -
Chapter 466
The other colleagues persuaded the guy to shut up when they noticed Patrick was going to get angry. "Nash Harrison, what are you saying? Have you forgotten the thing our boss had told us?" "I've had enough of this guy. If I don't voice out today, I won't be contented!"
Nash resolutely waved off his colleague's hand on his shoulder. He pointed at Patrick with an agitated look and said, "Patrick Hopper, aren't you fond of bullying people with your power just because you're from a respected family? Let me tell you, all the dirty tricks you've played are in our boss's expectation!"
"When you were buying wine at higher price and sell them at lower price, our wine factory had transformed! When you thought of the wine we made was display on the exclusive cabinet of the Roxxon department, do you feel disgusted?"
"That's right. When our 'Dream' staffs saw you, we felt the same way. We felt like we were looking at a nuisance! We just wanted to kill you! Step on you! Pinch you!"
"Nash!" Ryan who went out to calm Nash down. He accidentally heard the second half of the sentence that the staff talked about Patrick. He stared at
Nash with anger.
Nash's temper turned cold when he saw Ryan, "Boss, I..."
"You don't have to explain. Go back to your tent!" Ryan waved his hand and he did not want to talk anymore.
"Mr. Quartley!" Nash's chest heaved. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain but Ryan gave him a cold look. So he went back into the tent obediently.
A dark light flashed in Patrick's eyes and he accurately threw Nash's work card into the tent. He heard Nash grunting inside and it was estimated that he had been hit on the face by his work card. Meanwhile, Amelia who knew nothing chased after them while stepping on the snow pile. When she saw Patrick and Ryan running into each other, she muffled in her heart, "Oh no!"
At this time, she did not know that Patrick had discovered the work card. She thought that Patrick was thinking that the air in the tent was too stuffy and went out for a walk. Then he coincidentally met Ryan who came out for a walk as well.
So she raised her hand and waved at Ryan as if she knew nothing. "What a coincidence, Mr. Quartley. We meet again!"
The gloomy look in Patrick's eyes suddenly became deep and souless when he noticed her expression!
He turned and growled at her, "Amelia, you're still pretending!"
When did he need someone else's sympathy? What a joke!
Amelia who was scolded by him could not come back to her senses. She asked, "Did you know all about that?"
When Patrick looked at Amelia intensely, his joy, anger, sorrow, and sadness at this moment all settled into one sentence, "You lied to me."
When he finished talking and left Amelia shocked, his gaze turned to another direction. It was the direction of going down the mountain!
Amelia became anxious and waved her arm to stop him. She said with red eyes, "Mr. Hopper, don't leave me. If you want to leave, I'll go with you!"
Patrick raised his arm. However, he was not going to hold her hand this time around. Instead, he pushed her away slowly and firmly. "No, thanks. You have your choice."
"Mr. Hopper!" Amelia, who was standing behind him feeling hurt.
"Patrick! Stop right there!" Ryan who was standing aside suddenly shouted to stop Patrick.
Ryan said, "You let a girl hike up the mountain in the snow. Then you let her starve and suffer the cold outside the tent because of your ego?"
"Don't you think it's cold for a man to stand in the snow at night, let alone for a girl like her? Patrick, if this is what you call love, then your love is really suffocating!"
The coldness in Patrick's eyes fell on Ryan. "What right do you have to teach me a lesson?"
Ryan looked at him in the eye and said straightforwardly, "I'm not your parents and I'm not qualified to teach you a lesson. Well, I'll be reasonable. You said that Amelia had lied to you, but she did it out of kindness! She had no choice but to do it!"
"If she hadn't lied to you, would you have entered the tent that I prepared for you? What if you hadn't found a suitable person to share the tent tonight?"
"I don't feel sorry for you. I just feel sorry for a gentle and weak girl like Amelia, it's enough for her to obey your egoistic behavior. Don't be too selfish and only care about your own feelings!"
"I can be selfish. However, she can't lie to me."
Patrick's characteristic was he rather be the bad guy. Maybe what Ryan said was true, he was too narrow-minded. His like and dislike depended on his mind.
When he liked Amelia, he could spoil her so much that she could never imagine. When he did not like her, he could just left her hanging.
It was hard to change a person's character. Patrick would rather change Amelia into the ideal person that he wanted. However, she really let him down this time around.
When Amelia saw that Patrick really left without looking back, she naturally wanted to chase after him. But the next second, her arm was grabbed from behind. She heard Ryan who was holding her and advised, "Amelia, don't chase after him. Go back to the tent."
Amelia looked with some sadness and said to Ryan, "Uncle Quartley, no, I can't let him leave alone. From the moment I decided to climb the mountain, he had been helping me, encouraging me and guiding me. If I let him go now, I will regret it for a lifetime."
When Ryan heard this, he could not help but startled. "Can I accompany you?"
The sky was terrifyingly dark and the weather was icy cold. It was too dangerous to rashly descend the mountain when one's field of view was not good.
Amelia was moved but shook her head. "No, I can do it myself. Uncle Quartley, let me go or I won't be able to catch up."
Ryan let go of her arm and watched her worriedly as she put on the hood from her white coat. Then, she turned around and left.
Ryan turned around helplessly when Amelia's figure seemed to have become a dot from a distance.
As soon as his eyes landed on the tent, he saw Amelia's straw sandals and crutches all over Nash's tent. Ryan could not help but feel even more worried. "Can she really do it?" Could she really make it?
Amelia had doubts about herself as well. She could not believe that she had just spoken to Ryan for a while and then Patrick had disappeared!
When Amelia stood at the fork road, she tried to recall the route she took. This was because the latter half of the journey was mostly led by Patrick and she really had no sense of direction. "Oh! Right." Amelia patted herself on the forehead. How could she forget that map!
She put her hand into her cotton jacket pocket and found a piece of A4 paper.
She quickly unfolded the square A4 paper which contained her hand-sketched map of Mount Logan.
