Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 48

At an intersection, Patrick leaned forward to Amelia and bit her lip. Rolling the tip of his tongue, Patrick felt her lip gloss.

She was shocked and covered her lips, saying, "Ah! What are you doing?"

Patrick stared at her and said, "Stop talking to him! Or I'll kill you!"

Hearing the voice of a man, Milton changed his tone and said, "Honey! How can there be a man beside you?"

Amelia got so worried that she couldn't figure out Patrick's intention.

Suddenly Patrick grabbed her phone and talked politely, "Mr. Cook, right? Hi, this is the husband of Amelia. Thank you for dropping my wife home the night before yesterday. If available, we buy you a cup of coffee as our appreciation to you, huh?"

Milton Cook's throat seemed to have been strangled and he instantly fell silent.

Knowing that it took time for Milton to process and accept the truth that his "honey" was married, Patrick said "Goodbye" and threw the phone back to Amelia.

When Amelia said hello to the phone, there was only a beep on the other side.

Amelia had no choice but to give up. She looked at Patrick and asked, "Where are we going to?"

This was clearly not the way back home.

Patrick said, "For dinner."

Amelia said with ignorance, "What's the time now? You wanna have dinner? It's the time for night snack."

Patrick asked coldly, "Do you think I'm just joking that I was busy at work before going to the banquet?"

Amelia was surprised as she thought that Patrick saying he being busy at work was just an excuse for being late. She didn't expect that he was too busy to grab a meal.

His temper was as unpredictable as the wind. When he told her with a smile that they were going home for dinner, he was actually telling a joke. When he appeared to protect her, she had no idea who he was.

In the restaurant.

After they were seated, the waiter stepped forward and said respectfully, "This is the menu for you."

Taking the menu from the waiter, Patrick skipped reading and ordered a few vegetarian dishes. Seeing this, Amelia asked with curiosity, "You like meat a lot but why don't you order some?" Frowning, Patrick asked the waiter to change the tea to boiled water.

A thought flashed through Amelia's mind that Patrick must have been so hungry that he felt stomachache.

So she kindly suggested, "Well, you should ask your secretary to prepare some biscuits for you in case you can't have meal in time."

Patrick replied, "The biscuits are too hard. I'm afraid the stomach will suffer more."

Amelia continued, "Then bread?"

Patrick refused, "It goes bad after a short period of time."

Amelia went ahead, "Then... milk!"

Patrick glanced at her and asked, "Mrs. Hopper, do I look like a baby?"

Amelia burst into laughter, thinking that he was even more difficult to please than a baby.

All the dishes were served on the table. Feeling unwell in the stomach, Patrick ate slowly. Seeing him chewing so many times before swallowing, Amelia felt satisfied.

Sensing Amelia's eyesight, Patrick Hopper raised his eyes and asked, "Why are you looking at me? Hurry up."

Rubbing her belly, Amelia said, "I was full. I took many fruits at the engagement party."

Patrick snorted and said, "You're really feeling at home."

Amelia replied, "Yes, I am." At that time, she turned her grief and anger into the desire for food.

Seeing the food was almost finished, Patrick put down his chopsticks and said, "I forgot to tell you that my dad wants to see you, so we go back to them tonight and live there."

Amelia raised her delicate eyebrows and asked, "Did dad say what it is?"

Picking up his coat and got up, Patrick said, "You'll know when you are there."

On the way, Amelia had been in a deep thought. After the first time when Howard talked with her, he decided on her marriage with Patrick. After the second time, he gave her the key to the new house. Every time he talked to her, Patrick got angry. The third time... she dared not think about it.

As she was feeling anxious, Patrick suddenly asked, "Saint Valentine's Day is just around the corner. How's the sales plan?"

Amelia replied absent-mindedly, "Almost ready."

"Then what's remained?" Patrick asked with greatest importance attached to the work.

Amelia had no other option but took it seriously and said, "We've made several plans, one of which is to have all the sex toys sold at Roxxon department store discounted. It's Saint Valentine's Day and those in love are our targeted clients."

Patrick grinned with his eyebrows seemed somewhat evil. He asked, "What about us?"

"What?" Amelia was stunned.

Seeing her being so cute in a daze, Patrick couldn't help but pinched her face and asked, "Shall we stock up some... so that we can use any time?"

Amelia was speechless and moved his hand away, thinking, "This man can be so serious even when talking like a hoodlum."

In The Hopper Family.

When getting out of the car, Amelia accidentally saw a box of condoms on the back seat.

Seeing this, her good mood of Patrick developed tonight was all gone.

Leaning into the carriage and taking the box out, she shook it in front of Patrick. She seriously asked, "Mr. Hopper, may I know where you got it from?"

Patrick was slightly absent-minded as it was thrown to the back seat by Cynthia that night...

Amelia sneered, "Haha, you have so many girls here that you can't remember whose it was?"

Noticing that he could not answer, Amelia's face darkened. She threw it at Patrick and left without looking back.

Patrick subconsciously caught the box and strode to Amelia as he didn't do anything wrong, so he didn't have to feel guilty, saying, "Mrs. Hopper, of course, this is prepared for you. Tonight... Er..." After glancing at the amount read on the box, he added confidently, "Ten times a night?"

Amelia's face changed, but replied with a sneer, "No, Mr. Hopper, you'd better keep them to make balloons."

As soon as they entered the house, the two nephews rushed to him. Ashley pounced on him while Andrew stood in front of them, calling her "Auntie" in a sweet voice.

Rubbing Andrew's hair, Amelia's heart melted and asked tenderly, "Hey, my dear, good to see you again!"

Andrew smiled shyly and snuggled into her arms, saying, "Mommy took us here."

Amelia looked back and saw Patrick having fun with Ashley, whose dress got unfolded in the air, revealing a small corner of her panty. But Ashley wasn't aware of that but was amused by her handsome younger uncle.

"Well, Ashley, come down. Your uncle Patrick had a busy day, so he is very tired." Putting down the teacup, Nora came and said.

"No worries! I haven't seen them for long and I miss them." Patrick was reluctant to let go of his hand, so he got Ashley to sit on his arm.

Circling around Amelia but found nothing, Andrew looked slightly disappointed.

Aware of what Andrew was looking for, Amelia touched the tip of his nose and said, "I don't have QQ stars... but chocolates! Do you want it?"
