Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 439

After the scandal between her and Shawn, another round of heated discussion of her started again on all kinds of

social media. "Well, although I'm not in the entertainment business, | caught everyone's attention..." Amelia

sighed.

A laugh sounded, "Don't you think they're talking about you because of me?"

Amelia felt a thrill at the back of her head. She looked over her shoulders and found Patrick watching her coldly.

Her face turned pale. "How long have you been standing behind me?"

Patrick added, "Since you started to flatter yourself."

Amelia blushed. "I know they talk aboutbecause of you, but can't you just letflatter myself a little?"

Patrick grabbed a chair and sat next to her. "Sure, my woman is qualified enough to flatter herself."

Amelia was caught off guard. She thought that Patrick was a reserved man and had never expected him to be so

natural when flirting with her. Patrick glanced at the small square box under the computer screen. "Are you

checking the condition of Mount Logan?"

"Yep," Amelia replied, "I didn't make it there last time, so | want to go again."

Patrick gave her a faint smile. "Not going with that Quartley guy this time?"

Knowing that he was testing her, Amelia played dumb. "I haven't asked him yet. Mr. Hopper, if you like, | can call

him and ask him out with us." Patrick couldn't sit tight now. "Mrs. Hopper, how dare you claim to invite Ryan in

front of me!"

Amelia pretended to be surprised. "Eh? Did | say I'm inviting Uncle Quartley? | was talking about a colleague of

our department named Quartley." Realizing that he had been teased by the little woman, Patrick felt annoyed

and amused at the stime. He reached out to pinch her pretty nose. Two days later. It was Christmas. The

snow that had continued for three months stopped today, which brought great convenience for those traveling.

Patrick, Amelia, Owen, and Nora, along with the two kids all cto the Hopper's today to visit Howard and Eve.

"Uncle Patrick! Amelia!"

Before they could see each other, the children's clear voice reached their ears.

Amelia looked over and found two little kids jumping from each side of Owen's car and rushing towards her and

Patrick.

As usual, Ashley hurried to Patrick while Andrew stood two steps away from Amelia and gave her a shy, adorable

smile.

"Hello, Andrew." Amelia reached out to touch his head and found that his hair was a little shorter and neater,

which made him look more like a little man.

"Auntie, | miss you so much." It was unclear whether it was because of the timidity or the cold, his red, round

cheeks looked like little apples. He was so lovable that Amelia almost wanted to take Patrick hand get

herself pregnant.

"Well, | miss you too." Amelia smiled.

Andrew looked up at her with his sparkling eyes and said politely, "Amelia, merry Christmas!"

Amelia gently rubbed his eye that was bruised by the fighting. After making sure that he's fine, she breathed a

sigh of relief. "Merry Christmas, Andrew. Long tno see, and you're handsagain." The boy chuckled. In an

instant, he turned from a little man to a shy little boy.

As for Patrick, the moment he caught the

enthusiastic, cheerful girl, he was kissed on both sides of his cheeks by her. Then he found Ashley spread her

little hands to him with a smile and said sweetly, "Uncle Patrick, Merry Christmas. Gift... My gift." So the latter

half of her words was the key. Patrick asked, "What do you want for your gift?"

Peach counted on her fingers, trying to recall what gift she had received the year before. When realizing that she

couldn't remember, she said directly, "I'm one year older, so | want a bigger one than last year!" Patrick raised

his eyebrows. "But I'm also one year older, don't you think you should givea gift as well?"

Ashley pursed her lips as if she was hurt by Patrick's words. After that, she studied his forehead and the corners

of his eyes carefully and said, "Uncle, you are talking nonsense! There is no trace of tin you forehead and

corners of your eyes!"

Trace of time...

Since when did this little girl start to learn literature?

Then Patrick heard Ashley reminded him seriously, "Uncle, what | can't bear the most is to hear you saying

yourself old. In my heart, you are a legend who never grows old."

Patrick was at a loss for words. He hadn't died yet, and here he was, a legend?

That was when Amelia said gently, "Andrew, Ashley, look at what we have brought to you."

Ashley looked around automatically and asked, "Amelia, what is it?"

With that, she saw a black bulldog

Ashley was not impressed by its awesappearance. Instead, she gave a disgusted look and said, "Why did

you bring a pig to your car? Doesn't it stink when it poops?"

Hearing her, Rick jumped up angrily and barked at Ashley! "D*mned brat, don't stay in the big bad guy's arms

and cdown to have a duel with me!" Rick yelled inwardly.

Rick, who felt so good under Andrew's touching that it almost lay down and showed its belly, couldn't help but

grit its teeth again at Ashley's remark.

"Huh!" Andrew noticed a wooden dog tag on Rick's neck and looked up. "Amelia, did you and Uncle Patrick got it

on Rick's neck?"

Amelia nodded with a smile.

Ashley craned her neck. "Andrew, what's written on it?"

He spat out the words clearly, "Rick of the Hopper Family!"

"Not bad..." Ashley clapped her hands like a little adult. "With that tag, this pig will be invincible in the world of

dog!"

Rick was wordless.
