Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 659

Five seconds later...

Huxton, now properly dressed, opened the door and greeted Patrick, who was pacing back and forth at the door.

"Sir, what can | do for you?"

Anxiety and nervousness revealed in Patrick's eyes as he hung up the call that he had been making but missed

by the receiver.

He immediately asked Huxton when he emerged from his room, "Tell me, where's Amelia?"

"Madam? Shouldn't she be sleeping in her room?"

"There's no one in the room!"

"Then I... have no idea."

"Where's the listening bug? Did it not relay any feedback to you?"

Huxton glanced at Patrick and said frankly, "I've... switched it off."

At this, Patrick's face dimmed even more sullenly. "Why did you turn it off for no reason?"

Huxton answered, flustered, "Because... | don't think it's appropriate forto hear into your private affair."

Patrick was struck silent.

"Since madam isn't home, Sir, why don't you give her a call?"

"I did, but no one answered!"

On the other side, on the highway.

Amelia had her attention on the road. She did not manage to put on her wireless earphones when she was left in

a hurry just now, and she had also tossed her phone into her bag. So, even though her phone was ringing, she

could not get to it for the moment and could only put both hands on the steering wheel, navigating carefully in

the traffic.

She assumed subconsciously that the person calling her was Alice.

As for Patrick, he probably did not even know that she had left home.

Her phone rang again when she was still on the road.

Noticing that there was a red light ahead, she drove the car over and stopped it steadily.

She then reached her hand into her bag and fumbled for her phone. When her eyes swept over the caller ID, she

was instantly stunned.

"Hello? Mr. Hopper..." greeted Amelia nervously. She admitted her mistake without waiting for his scolding. "You

can save your breath! | know I'm wrong! | should've informed you before | went out, and I should've picked up

your call too... | give you my most sincere apology..."

After acknowledging and apologizing for her fault, Amelia held her breath and waited for his reply.

However, even when she waited until after the light had turned green, Patrick still did not say a word.

"Patrick isn't this petty, is he?" thought Amelia as she knitted her thin brows together.

When she lowered her phone and took a look at it, she was shocked to find that her phone was out of battery

and had shut off by itself!

D*mn it!

Why did it have to be out of battery at such a critical moment!

So, how much of her genuine apology did Patrick manage to hear?

In fact, Patrick did not really catch much of it.

All he heard was Amelia calling out to him out of guilt, and then the call was cut off.

He then dialled again, but the system redirected him to the voicemail...

Huxton had been watching Patrick from the side when he saw Patrick's clench around his phone tightened. He

could not help but ask, "Sir, have you

got in touch with madam?"

Patrick replied with a poker face, "Notify all your men at once. Find Amelia no matter what!"

At the hospital, in the Department of Gynaecology.

Amelia had just shown up at the floor where the operating room Alice told her was when she caught sight of a

haggard figure under the company of a sketchy-looking man, sitting side-by-side on a bench not far away from

her.

And the aforementioned haggard figure was Alice!

As for the man who was patting Alice's back softly, taking advantage of her under the guise of comforting, was

Kaleb!

Amelia's eyes glazed with ice. How did Alice and Kaleb end up together?

Just as she began on her suspicion, the weeping but still gracious Alice suddenly sprang up from her seat and

walked toward the operating room, rid of Kaleb's perverse hand.

Kaleb clenched his jaw silently and caught up to Alice again. This time, he directly grabbed onto Alice's hand,

looking as if he wanted to cheer her up, but completely ignored Alice's subtle but evident protest of him!

Amelia was maddened at the sight. Alice and Amelia's father were married, and yet, Kaleb was

taking liberties with Alice as if her father did not exist!

Amelia would keep one eye closed if it was Alice who was secretly throwing herself onto Kaleb. But at this

moment, it was obvious that Kaleb was outright pestering Alice. How could Amelia just sit by and let this

happen?

Amelia emerged from the corner rather imposingly and said in a strange tone, "Uncle Kaleb, why are you here?

Didn't your wife say anything when you leave hso late at night?"

At the sound of this, the nearby doctors and nurses all cast a curious look at Kaleb.

Because of Kaleb's intimacy with Alice, they had all mistaken them for a middle-aged married couple who had

sent their daughter to the hospital for treatment.

And as it turned out, they did not have the kind of relationship that everyone thought they had!

At the notice of Amelia's voice, Kaleb and Alice whipped their heads towards her direction reflexively.

Unlike Kaleb's state of shock and panic, Alice's expression revealed relief. This only further solidified Amelia's

suspicion!

When her gaze fell on Kaleb, who was still holding

Alice's hand, Amelia smiled and asked, "Uncle Kaleb, does Aunt Alice's hand feel smooth?"

"Ah... Oh!" Kaleb retracted his hand in a flash, plagued by guilt. With a hollow laugh, he said, "You're here,

Amelia?"

"Yes, it's me." Amelia's smile

remained. With her eyes showing

harmless intention sheportinbed] "If

Alice lowered her eyes in embarrassment and quickly approached Amelia, explaining, "Amelia, I..."

Amelia interrupted, "Aunt Alice, this is

Watching as Alice's face paled at the sound of her words and tears began to well up in her eyes, Amelia got even

more disgusted by Kaleb! Look at how he made Alice feel! He must have harassed Alice at least several times!

Amelia was projecting loudly with the hint of an accusatory tone in her words, which attracted a lot of attention

towards Kaleb right away.

Kaleb's lined face flushed crimson. He so wanted to stitch Amelia's mouth together with glue!

"Amelia, I... | really didn't!" Alice's voice was as fine as it could get as she whispered in Amelia's ear.

Of course she knew Alice did not ask for it. Amelia let out a sigh in her heart.

But if she did not address it harshly in front of everyone else, Kaleb would not have stopped!

Pursing her lips, Amelia fell back to

the reason for her visit. "Aunt Alice,

didn't you say on fis pegnetaat

But before Alice could respond,

Amelia added, "But she merely just

tripped, anyway. How serious can it

be?" The content is on
