Chapter 452
"Humph, are you just afraid that something might happen toand you would be held responsible for it?"
Hayden muttered gloomily thinking that even Patrick did not want to help him. He could only rely on himself! On
the other hand,
Amelia pulled Patrick's hand, which had been holding her since she entered the house. She asked in confusion,
"Were Andrew and Ashley there when we were having lunch?"
Patrick took her to a corner and whispered, "I heard from Owen that Ashley was angry with her grandmother
because Rick got kicked. Andrew didn't want to eat either. Now Nora is comforting them upstairs." There was a
hint of worry in Amelia's eyes. "I want to go upstairs to see them."
Patrick nodded and let go of her hand. "You can go upstairs yourself. | have to entertain our guests."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Amelia gave an understanding smile and then walked upstairs.
On the second floor.
Amelia stood outside the bedroom that Nora and her husband usually stayed in when they returned to The
Hopper Family. She knocked on the door.
A moment later, Nora's voice rang out from the room, "Is it Owen? Cin, the door isn't locked."
Amelia opened the door and saw Nora from behind. She was coaxing the two children to eat. "Nora, it's me."
Nora was not disappointed when she heard Amelia instead of Owen. She was waiting for a life-line. She looked at
the frustrated twins lying on the bed, "Andrew and Ashley, look who's here to see you guys?" Ashley and Andrew
both sat up when they heard this. They both looked like they had been crying, which made Amelia feel very
distressed.
"Aunt... how is Rick?" The two children asked in hoarse voices.
Amelia glanced at the children's uneaten meals on the bedside table and looked at the undisguised anxiety on
Nora's face. As she approached them, she said, "I'll tell you guys about Rick after you have finished your meal,
okay?"
"Well... okay." The two children nodded reluctantly.
Nora was so happy when she saw her children finally willing to eat. She quickly walked to Amelia's side, "It's all
thanks to you, Amelia! Andrew and Ashley are very stubborn. I'm really afraid that they'll starve themselves to
death."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA faint smile appeared on Amelia's face. "I gained experience when | spent twith them. For example, they
like to doze off during homework time. So | told them that as long as they complete the homework in the
stipulated time, I'd tell them more stories that night. They slowly got used to the way we do things."
Nora immediately smiled. "I have to remember this method! Amelia, you seem to be getting more and more
motherly experience?" Amelia was truly embarrassed when she heard Nora's words. "To be honest, Patrick and |
do have plans to have children." "Really?" Nora's eyes widened as she felt a sincere sense of concern for Amelia.
"You're finally done with your hard work!" "Yes! | hope so..." Amelia's anxiousness and worries were hidden
behind her smile.
Patrick promised to give her the answer after Christmas and she hoped that the answer would be the one she
wanted.
"Aunt, I'm full!" Andrew held up a big bowl which only had a few grains of rice left as he said this to Amelia.
"I'm full too." Ashley burped loudly speaking after Andrew.
Amelia reached out her hand and touched Andrew and Ashley's stomach. She had to make sure that they did not
throw away the food when Nora and her were not paying attention. She praised, "You two behave so well."
"So how is Rick?" Ashley asked with her big bright eyes wide open.
Amelia said softly, "Your uncle and | have already sent Rick to the veterinary clinic. The vet promised to cure
Rick. You can rest assured by what | said right?"
Ashley felt unease and tugged on the sheets under the bed. "But... Grandma's kick was so hard. | could feel it in
my own belly even though I only watched it from a distance!"
"Yes, | felt a pain in my stomach too at that time. | felt like grandma was kickingas well." Andrew said
sincerely.
"Who isn't." Amelia sighed.
Andrew and Ashley were still young. They didn't understand the complicated relationship in the family. They just
felt sad because of Rick.
To be honest, Eve just wanted to punish Rick as a warning to others. Was not that kick intended for
Amelia?
"Hmm?" Amelia turned around and looked at Nora in surprise when she sensed she was tugging the clothes
behind her waist, "Nora, do you have something to say to me?" Nora turned on the television in the bedroom.
After shifting the children's attention, she pulled Amelia to the side, "Do you know that Ashley knows how to
show temper to Eve now?"
Amelia shook her head. "I don't know..."
Nora said with worry, "Alas, Ashley told Eve that she hated her. If | hadn't stopped her quickly, | didn't know what
would have happened."
Amelia could not help but ask, "Eve must be very upset when she heard this, right?"
Even the cold hearted Eve would feel shocked when her granddaughter told her that she hated her.

"Nora, | know nothing about how to get along with Eve. Otherwise, Eve and | wouldn't be so incompatible now.
Sorry, | can't give you any advice."
"It's alright, it's just that | wanted to talk to someone." Nora smiled and reassured herself, "Maybe I'm
overthinking..."
Nora really did not think too much about it in reality...
