Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 379

It took Jessica a while to realize what Amelia meant. "Yes, | have, but what do you want to do?"

Amelia said seriously, "I'll send you and Sierra to a nearby hotel first for a few nights. Well cup with another

way out."

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Just as Jessica was about to stand up with Sierra, the phone in the room suddenly rang.

Knowing that it was inconvenient for Jessica to answer it with the kid in her arms, Amelia said, "I'll answer it. Do

you have any other baby products left?"

"Yes, they are all cheap goods. Those people weren't interested in them and didn't take them away." Jessica

simply regarded men sent by Patrick as robbers.

Amelia did not correct her but said, pretending to be calm, "Okay, you can pack up now. I'll cto help you

after answering the phone."

"Okay," Jessica said, giving her friend a grateful look. She didn't have to say thanks, and Amelia understood.

After Jessica left, Amelia picked up the ringing phone immediately. Before she could say anything, the caller

couldn't wait to speak, "Jessica, something bad has happened! The cafe has just been shut down by the

Industrial and Commercial Bureau!"

Amelia's beautiful face froze. "What did you say?"

Anxious, the caller didn't notice it was Amelia's voice instead of Jessica's and kept saying, "Here's the thing. Half

an hour ago, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau launched a sudden check to the equipment in our kitchen.

The equipment was up to standard before, but this tthey claimed that they were defective. They also said

that if there was an explosion, our clients would be in danger. Besides, they found that our fire extinguisher was

expired. Yes, it was expired. But doesn't that mean there is no fire hazard here? | tried to solve it in private, but

they insisted on shutting down the shop!"

Amelia's forehead throbbed at that. With a heavy heart, she replied, "I see."

"So, Jessica, look, since the store was shut down, what should | and other employees do?" The caller asked

worriedly.

Amelia had no choice but to say, "Just take a few days off. When the shop is ready, the Industrial and

Commercial Bureau will allow us to reopen it. By then, I'll inform you to cback to work." The caller hesitated,

"Jessica, you need to know. If this keeps too long, | may have to look for another job..."

Amelia knew those employees had their own difficulties. "I know! Tell the others that they get paid toff. If

any of you insist on quitting, you can leave. | won't force you to stay."

The caller sounded very happy. "Okay! We are relieved to hear your promise. We won't bother you to cup

with a solution, Jessica. See you!"

After putting down the phone, Amelia heaved a long sigh of relief.

She adjusted her expression, trying to look usual when she turned to help Jessica pack her luggage. But when

she turned around, she met Jessica's depressed eyes.

Amelia tensed up. Although she wanted to keep it from Jessica, her friend might have already heard what she

said.

Jessica had a look of disbelief on her face. "My cafe has been closed. Did | mishear it?"

At this point, Amelia could only try to make her more positive. "It's not big of a deal. Don't panic!"

Trying her best to control her trembling voice, Jessica said, "My hwas robbed... and my shop was shut

down... That's not big of a deal?"

Amelia took a few steps forward to Jessica and comforted her. "Jessica, look at me! | will help you with this

problem."

Jessica nodded blankly. She had no idea what was going on. Why did her life change so much overnight?

At the hotel.

Amelia went to the front desk with Jessica and her daughter. Under the gentle smile of the receptionist, Jessica

took out her ID card from her handbag and put it on the desk. "I'm going to check in with my daughter, a room."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The receptionist nodded politely. She picked up Jessica's ID card and took a

glance at it. Then, she froze. Amelia noticed the subtle change in the receptionist's expression and couldn't help

asking, "What's wrong?"

The receptionist smiled at her and put Jessica's ID card on a scanning machine. The computer automatically

showed her information.

Then the receptionist handed over the ID card and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Albert. We can't provide services for you.

Please turn to other hotels." Jessica and Amelia looked at each other in confusion. The difference was that

although Jessica was bewildered, Amelia guessed this was part of Patrick's plan.

"Amelia, what should we do now?" Jessica didn't think it would be a problem for her, but it would be so miserable

to have to spend the night homeless with a kid.

Seeing her good friend reduced to such a poor state, Amelia said, looked a little annoyed, "It's okay. They didn't

allow you to check in after seeing your ID card. Let's go to another hotel. I'll use my ID to check you in!"

But when they turned to another hotel, the receptionist scanned Amelia's ID card and shook her head with a

smile.

"Huh? Why can't your ID work either?" Jessica was stunned.

Amelia took a deep breath inwardly. Patrick had cup with such a trick because he knew that Amelia would

help Jessica! Despicable!

Gritting her teeth, Amelia patted her thigh and said, "Forget it. You'd better live at my place rather than counting

on someone else!" "What?" Jessica's jaw dropped in surprise.

"I mean the Ramsay's."

Of course, Amelia was not stupid

enough to bring Jessica to Patrick.

Jessica objected, "But... Daniel is also living there. What is that if | go there?"

"Well..." That man was a headache.

Out of Amelia's surprise, Jessica began, "I'm afraid someone is trying to ruinthis time. If there's no other way

out, I'll go back to my grandfather's."

Amelia didn't expect Jessica to say that. "Don't you hate your mother?"

Jessica glanced at her, her eyes full

Noticing that Jessica was still in the mood to make fun of herself at such a time, Amelia was both worried and

frustrated. "Well, I'll take you home."

After stopping her car at NK Road safely, Amelia turned to Jessica and said softly, "Here we are."

Amelia wanted to roll her eyes. "Do you needto go up with you?"

Jessica shook her head, changing the topic. "By the way, how did you know my grandfather's place is here?"

Amelia's heart was in her throat!

She had forgotten!

Before Amelia chere, she didn't ask Jessica for the address. Instead, after getting into the car, she drove to

NK Road according to her memory!
