Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 388

Still being in a rage, Jessica continued, "Besides, since you knew that | was in a difficult situation, why didn't you

ask your husband to letgo during pillow talk!"

It was a headache for Amelia. If any of them here was going crazy under too much pressure, that person would

be her!

It should have nothing to do with Amelia, but she dragged herself into this thing for the sake of Jessica. Jessica

had one trouble after another, and Amelia had been trying her best to help Jessica with every difficulty, hadn't

her?

Now that everyone was blaming her, Amelia wished she could just leave them behind.

"Jessica, I've already told him everything that should be said. I've tried my best to do what | could for you. They

say twill tell a true friend from a false one. We've lived together for at least 6 years since college to work,

haven't we? Even so... You still can't tell what kind of person | am?"

Jessica bit her lips so hard that they turned red. After a moment, she said, "Amelia... sorry, please don't take it

personally. | can't choose my mother after all..."

Amelia said bitterly, "Sorry, my word doesn't count in the Hopper Family. Sorry for not being helpful."

"No..." Jessica waved her hand dispiritedly.

At that time, a doctor walked out from the operating room and said something to Patrick. Amelia couldn't hear it

very clearly since she was standing far away. But judging from Patrick's relaxed face, it was easy to tell that the

doctor had good news.

Florence always showed her true feelings. After knowing that Eve was fine, she cheered immediately in front of

her "enemies". "Great! Have you heard that, Patrick, Owen? Mom is safe!"

"But she's still weak and in a coma." Patrick's interruption stopped Florence from being too happy. Florence

turned to glare at the woman to blame.

Receiving her wild hostility, Jocelyn frowned and asked them, "What do you needto do to remove your

resentment?"

Florence glanced at Patrick as if she was in a dilemma. It depended on Patrick.

As a policeman, Owen had a stronger sense of justice than that of ordinary people. Moreover, now that Eve had

been out of danger, he didn't want to trouble Jocelyn and her family. Therefore, he chose to keep silent and left it

for his younger brother to decide.

Jessica held her breath and widened her eyes in fear of missing any word from Patrick.

Patrick's eyes were dark. "I want you to kneel in front of my mother's bed and pray from today on. You will get up

only when she wakes up. After that, leave Northville and never cback!" Jocelyn was silent, her eyes full of

emotion.

"That's too much!" Howard was displeased.

Patrick curled his lips. "Dad, if | call Grandpa right now and tell him that Mom has tried to kill herself by taking

sleeping pills because you seemed to be cheating on her, what do you think he'd do?" Patrick was so angry that

he was speechless. The Hopper Family had always been strict with their family members. If Zach found out,

would there still be a chance for Jocelyn to live? Seeing that Howard was silent, Patrick started to push Jocelyn.

"If you're not willing to do so, perhaps your daughter or father-in-law could take your place?"

Jocelyn's mouth quivered and the struggle in her eyes looked stronger.

Jessica, who had been trying to make herself invisible, uncharacteristically popped out and pointed at Jocelyn

after hearing Patrick's words, "Mr. Patrick, listen to me! She is the one who did all this. She deserves to kneel and

pray for your mother. My grandpa and | would never take her responsibility!"

Hearing what Jessica said to protect herself, Amelia suddenly felt sorry for the mother, Jocelyn.

Jocelyn said with a poker face, "Okay. | promise you, from today on, I'll kneel and pray in front of your mother's

bed."

"Very good, as for you..." Patrick turned his malicious eyes to Jessica, who was so scared that she went still.

Anxious, Amelia pulled Jessica behind her immediately to protect her. "Patrick, if you dare to lay a finger on

Jessica, I'll never forgive you!"

"Do you think I'll still care about what you think now?" Patrick said ruthlessly. Because of Jocelyn, his happy

family had been torn apart!

"Enough!" Howard interrupted them in a deep voice, "Patrick, as long as you don't make things difficult for

Jocelyn and her family, I'll return to Eve. | will never leave or mention divorce again. Besides, | will also send

Jocelyn to the other end of the earth and never see her again!"

Patrick stared at him. "You'll keep your word?"

"Aren't you pushingso hard and waiting forto give in?"

Fathers knew their sons, and Howard was no exception. Howard was like an old, weak fighter defeated. In a

hoarse voice, he said, "It's you who win this time. | surrender."

Knowing that he had achieved his goal, Patrick cast a glance at Jocelyn with disgust and said, "Get lost! Get as

far away as possible!"

Amelia watched what was happening in front of her and suddenly realized how horrible Patrick was. Since he

could be so merciless to his own father, what would he do to her?

After Jocelyn left, Jessica asked Patrick hurriedly, "So, Mr. Pattick, does it mean that | have nothing to do with this

anymore?"

It would be ridiculous if the words had cfrom someone else. Since when had Northville been ruled by one

man?

But Jessica said joyfully, as if she

"Okay, I'll ask something else." After removing

Amelia's hand, Jessica asked Patrick with expectation and anxiety, "Mr. Patrick, would you return my apartment

and my cafe to me?"

In front of Howard, Patrick said to her in a clear voice, "When | am sure that your mother has disappeared from

Northville, I will return those things to you."

Howard got tensed. He knew that Patrick was warning him not to play any other tricks.

Otherwise, Jocelyn would never be able to escape!

Jessica didn't dare to urge him and hurried to answer. "Okay."

In the ward, Patrick looked down at

Eve, who had been tra nsferred, from

the opeggtiggyacrivho (Re intensive

flashed through his determined face.

"Mom, I've taken Dad back for you. Don't worry. You'll be the only woman he has in his life. I'm asking him to

cin to take care of you and cheer you up."

Eve was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. It was unknown if she had heard what he said.
