Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 616

Ryker gave a soft cough and said, "Director Ramsay, with all due respect, your worry is not completely

groundless. There's no knowing what is in a man's heart after all. And also, an outsider can't be as good as an

uncle by blood, right?"

Amelia batted her eyelashes. "What do you mean?"

"Oh, nothing. | was just joking," smiled Ryker.

Amelia flashed a vicious smile as if Ryker had successfully pulled her into his trap of creating internal conflict in

the office. "When I'm finally familiar with all the affairs of the company, I'll kick that old Jonathan out!"

Ryker's lips twitched and curled up in the slightest at the sound of this. He needed to find an opportunity to

report to Kaleb the latest developments between Amelia and Jonathan.

At Land of Fragrance.

As Amelia was buzzing in the company, Patrick was also keeping himself busy by looking for an ideal teaching

job for Sissi.

None of the schools dared to refuse any request from Patrick.

Not only did they dare not to say no, but they also showed great interest in the talent recommended by Patrick,

eager to add 'Sissi Roberts’ into their list of employees.

To which Patrick only said, "I'm not in a rush." Because he wanted to compare to see which offered the best.

If other schools had overheard Patrick's query, they would probably want to perish. It had always been them who

picked their teachers and students, so since when were they differentiated and treated as options?

"I'm pretty familiar with your school. I'll contact you again if my friend is interested," said Patrick, then ended the

call after saying goodbye. After the call, Patrick stopped typing on the keyboard and put down the phone

between his left cheek and shoulder with his right hand. Looking up cooly at his laptop screen, a document that

contained only the names of the most well-known universities was on display.

In his view, children in kindergarten and primary school were too noisy and active. And knowing Sissi, who was

so attentive, the kids would tire her out.

As for high school students, they would be under tremendous pressure fortheir exams. And based on Sissi's

personality, she would no doubt stay up late and craft lessons forthem.

He thought it over and over again, then landed his mind on universities, where she would have more free time

and would not be exhausted every day.

The question was which university should she go.

If Patrick was to make this decision in the past, he would have decided for Sissi.

But things were different than before. It was better to let Sissi get into the details herself.

After a sigh of relief, Patrick picked up his phone next to the laptop and dialled for ‘Unknown’.

Two hours later...

In front of a slightly rundown apartment parked a Lamborghini.

Through the car window, Patrick saw the nof the apartment on its gate. After confirming that this was the

right address mentioned by Sissi on the phone, his eyes filled with deep pity. Thinking back on the carefree life

that Sissi had before she left him, and looking at her present living conditions at this moment, he felt that she

was not 'living' at all, but merely 'surviving'.

Sissi was the daughter of one of the officers in Northville. Influenced by her mother, she had spent her tin

university training to be a teacher, where her university counsellor was her own mother, who was a professor.

Such a beautiful woman with a good background, who had a steady job and love life, her future was looking

bright and clear. However, she was driven out by her parents after she was exposed to being involved in a

ridiculous incident. Overnight, Sissi found herself to have nowhere to go and no one to turn to.

Although knowing that she had brought this upon herself, it was still difficult for Patrick not to sympathize with

her.

Sissi must have had a hard tthe past few years in a place abroad where she had no relatives.

As the train of thought flew through his mind, Patrick opened the door and got off the car, approaching Sissi's

residence.

As he walked past a corner, a wretched male voice cfrom around the corner. "Ms. Roberts, my son has fallen

behind on his homework during these few days that you weren't in Northville. How about this? You cover

tonight for his tuition, and I'll deduct this month's rent."

"Sorry, but I really don't have ttonight!"

Sissi sounded as if she was dodging him, but Patrick knew clearly that she was selfless when it cto

educating children.

"Can it be that Ms. Roberts has a date tonight?" asked the sglum voice, jumbled with a hint of regret.

"Sort of," Sissi replied hesitantly.

Patrick felt that it was tfor him to show up. He sped up his pace and emerged from the corner, peering at the

man beside Sissi.

Not to mention his inflated body and ugliness, his eyes were even shining with the lust to get his hands on what

he did not deserve. Patrick's face turned gloomy in an instant.

Sissi could not help but let out a sigh of relief at the sight of Patrick.

She approached him and called out softly, "Patrick, you're here."

Patrick answered with a hum. In front of the repugnant man, he then said, "I'm here to bring you home."

Whenever a man told a woman to he was bringing her 'home', they must have a relationship just beyond friends.

Under the man's envious glare, Patrick took Sissi's hand and led her away.

Sissi stared at their interlocked hands and beca little dazed.

It was not until she was pushed into his luxurious sports car that she cback to her senses. She said, "People

may misunderstand if you say something like that."

"Are you jealous?" Sissi asked.

Patrick said carelessly, "Don't get too over yourself, | just happened to pass by and helped you."

Hearing this, Patrick decided promptly. "Let's choose a school first, and then pick a house!"

At Land of Fragrance.

At night, Amelia, who did not have any social meeting, returned hearly, which was rare.

"Madam, you're back," Huxton cforward and greeted her.

Amelia glanced at him and said, "Yea. Well, I'm a little hungry, can you prepare something for me?"

Huxton asked, "Are you not going to wait for sir for dinner?"

Amelia was confused for a moment and then said with a bitter smile, "I was so busy that | forgot Patrick is back

in Northville."

Huxton said, "Please wait for a while. Mr.

Hopper said he'll be back soon."

Amelia nodded. As she unbuttoned

Amelia hummed in acknowledgement. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Huxton, what happened with your

face?"

Huxton brushed his fingers over his swollen nose bridge and replied faintly, "I hit something accidentally."
