Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 254

In the evening, on the Land of Fragrance.

Amelia returned hwith mixed feelings. As she took off her heels with her back to the living room, Patrick

cin her direction, enveloping her in his shadow.

Amelia's nose sniffed at the scent of tobacco that belonged exclusively to him, and she silently changed her

shoes to see what he wanted.

Patrick stared at the back of her head, his voice serious, "Didn't | tell you to stay home? Why are you so late?"

Amelia turned back only to realize how close they were, her lips accidentally grazing his collar, leaving a shallow

lip print.

She stepped back a little to buy herself space where she could escape, "A college friend of mine suddenly came

over to see me, and | cback with her after shopping for makeup."

Patrick narrowed his eyes as if guessing at the truth of her words.

Amelia asked him back, "What about you, spending the whole day shopping with Cynthia?"

Patrick nodded slightly. "Yes."

He was honest. Amelia was too lazy to ask anything else. She bypassed Patrick and said, "I'm going to cook."

Patrick couldn't help but reach out and hold her as he saw her looking listless with her head down and explained,

"On the 21 st of this month, Cynthia will be flying to the U.S. for in-depth treatment, after which will send her to

Germany to study fashion design, and if all goes well, she may never return to Northville."

Amelia was stunned.

Patrick continued, "I went shopping with her today to buy sessentials that are not available abroad, nothing

more."

Patrick relaxed a lot after the explanation. A lot of things he didn't want to explain to her before because he

didn't think Amelia was important. Now his mind was shifting, but he just didn't feel it deeply enough. After

hearing what he said, Amelia had a complicated look on her face, and she suddenly saw a glimmer of hope in

this barren marriage.

Amelia reached out and offered to wrap her arms around Patrick's neck. Feeling his body relax immediately after

a slight stiffening, Amelia smiled and rested her head affectionately on his shoulder, "I'm glad, | really am."

Patrick confused, "Why?"

Amelia smiled but didn't say anything.

He might not know how important his honesty was to her.

Amelia gently bit down on her lower lip and spoke the thought she had been hiding for so long, "Patrick, shall we

try?

Intoxicated by Amelia's tenderness, Patrick was

stunned. "Try what?"

Amelia's eyes suddenly filled with hope as she stepped back from his embrace and said to him seriously, "I know

our marriage was rushed and no one was ready for it, but we've been through so much together. We've even

been through life and death together. Patrick, let's fall in love and see if we can love each other, okay?"

It took almost all of Amelia's courage to say that, and she watched him with bated breath as she waited for him

to nod.

But Patrick turned abruptly, his back looking cold, "Sorry, I'm not ready. I'm tired, I'm going back to my room."

Amelia momentarily lost her mind. Until Patrick went up to the second floor and closed the study door, Amelia

regained her senses but couldn't control her tears.

At least, she had already worked hard for this marriage...

In the study.

Patrick opened the drawer and took out the "goodbye letter" that Amelia had unintentionally picked up,

something that Sissi had given him, even if it hurt, he still kept it.

Although he didn't say anything at the time, he still got emotional when he heard that Sissi was in the process of

divorcing her husband, and he knew his feelings for Sissi were still there!

If that's the case, how can Patrick devote himself to his next relationship?

Wouldn't that be unfair to Amelia?

The day after tomorrow.

Amelia expected her workday to be almost over and clocked out early to end the day, after which she changed

her work clothes into a regular style skirt and drove to Jessica's coffee shop. Jessica touched Amelia's sports car

and looked impressed, "Wow, when did you buy a car? | didn't know that!"

Amelia opened the car door for her and smiled, "Cup here."

Arriving at the front door of the agreed hotel, Lucy, who was all branded, looked at Amelia's outfit and frowned in

disgust, "It's too plain."

After a pause, Lucy noted, "Show us what treasure you're hiding in the bulge on your chest."

Amelia touched the diamond ring

covered under the fabric and spoke

words that startled Lucy and Jessica,

"It's a wedding ring, but it's Patrick's

for temppran sekéebit With

me. NA I felt sad with every word

she uttered, recalling how the

previous night's discussion had all

turned into today's joke, and Patrick

might have laughed at her lack of

self-knowledge. Jessica and Lucy

just realized that Patrick was not

going to be a part of this reunion of

Amelia's. The content is on

Reaching over Amelia's slim shoulders, Lucy shifted encouragingly, "It's okay. Men count for nothing. We can live

with ourselves."

"That's right!" Jessica followed up, "Don't forget that we're here to support you!"

Showing a smile, Amelia said sincerely, "I know that you are good to me, just go in!"

Amelia appeared in the compartment

and attracted everyone's attention.

But at this point, Amelia was surrounded only by her best female friends and no man, so what did that mean?

She was most likely single!

A male classmate had observed Amelia's exquisite face. He got bold after drinking, and cover to accost her.

Probably a little emotional, the

classmate burped first as he sat

down, and Jessica, ging

embarrassed that he froze there. He

couldn't wait to pick up the wine

At this time, another male classmate took the opportunity to greet Amelia, "Amelia, do you still remember me?"

"Oh... who are you?" Amelia was a little confused.

In the four years of college, there were sclassmates who she hadn't talked to at all, not to mention to

remember him.

"I'm Brian Zellweger!" He looked at her eagerly and said.

Still, Jessica had a good memory and tugged on Amelia's sleeve and whispered, "Brian was famous.

He used to be on the school basketball team and a bunch of girls skipped lunch just to go watch him play

basketball..."

As Amelia learned about Brian's story, Brian began to gush, "Amelia, | think the endorsement of your company is

very nice, and as soon as one of your commercials airs, I'm sure I'll stop whatever job I'm working on..."
