Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 679

Amelia hurriedly lowered down her head and dashed forward without looking back despite him calling her from

the back. She could never let anyone who know her to witness such a scene where she had been abandoned!

However, she clumsily bumped into another person who was coming in her direction as a result of her running

too fast.

The person that she had bumped into was in fact a fat man. Consequently, she was bounced back a little due to

the momentum. Then, she fell into the embrace of the man who had cafter her. The man startled a little as

he had not expect this.

He resisted the urge to push her away and managed to convince himself to hold her arms in support instead.

After assisting Amelia to stand on her feet herself, the man asked in a gentleman-manner, "Mrs. Hopper, are you

alright?"

"I'm fine." Amelia awkwardly struggled to get away from his arms. She tried to comb her messy hair.

Afterwards, she forced herself to smile at the young man who had just offered help, "Thank you, Kaiden."

Before Kaiden could pretentiously replied 'you're welcome’, the fat man who was knocked by her had rushed

over to them.

"Hey!" Pointing at his leather shoes that had been stepped on by Amelia, the fat man questioned her furiously,

"Don't you look when you're walking?! Do you know how much my shoes cost? They are very expensive!"

"I..." Amelia opened her mouth but could not bring herself to finish her sentence. Her expression looked so pitiful

at the moment.

In normal days, she could handle such trivial matters at ease. However, right this moment she was feeling too

exhausted to deal with anything.

Standing beside Amelia, Kaiden raised his chin graciously and spoke to the fat man, "Since you know that they

are expensive, why did you wear them out still? Once you wear the shoes, it's inevitable to get dust on them."

Holding grudge, the fat man glared at the extraordinarily handsman in front of him and yelled, "Hey toy

boy, who the hell are you?"

Kaiden crossed his arms in front of his chest and said insidiously, "Fatty, mind your words or else | can't

guarantee that you'll be able to go hsafely today!"

The fat man was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and challenged him, "Hey, you're pretty tough, aren't you

toy boy? You wanted to challenge me?"

Kaiden raised his eyebrows. It would be such a disgrace to fight with such a trivial person on his own.

Amelia tried her best to gather herself from the disappointment that Patrick had caused her. She turned her head

and said to Kaiden, "That's enough, Kaiden. Leave it to me."

Knowing that Amelia was after all a soft woman to deal with, clearly the fat man wanted to take advantage of

this as he spoke, "Well, her words are reasonable. One should be responsible for what she does. No point hiding

behind an irrelevant person for the wrong she caused?"

Kaiden still wanted to say something but Amelia had already pulled him to her back. She tried to block him with

her skinny body. She would not want to be responsible for additional medical expenses for him in case Kaiden

and this fat man got into a fight.

Kaiden was stunned. He stared at her back blanking, wondering if she was crazy.

The man right in front of her was as fat as a pig. Judging from his behavior, he was one that was likely to raise

his hand at women. Instead of letting Kaiden stood for her, she had chosen to drag him behind. He began to

wonder if she acted to protect him, yet he highly doubted this.

Upon seeing this woman standing up for herself, the fat man assumed proudly that he had taken over the

advantageous side. He lowered down his gaze at his shoes and said, "These shoes were prepared solely for my

blind date today. They had cost be around two thousand dollar. Since they are now useless after being stepped

by you, let's not waste our there and be clear cut. Pay for my loss, two thousand dollar then we are all

good!"

Amelia frowned and said, "They are not in fact very dirty. Moreover, | was in a hurry just now, | can't even be

sure if | had stepped on you or not..."

Not sure if the fat man was feeling guilty or anxious upon being questioned by Amelia, he stammered, "You...

Look at my dirty shoes. | just got down from the car. How can it be possible forto step on myself if you

claimed that you did not step on them?"

"Fine." Amelia did not bother to argue with him. She reached out her pocket and took out a fifty dollar note. She

then said uninterestingly, "All | have now is a fifty dollar note. Take it or leave it." "Fifty dollar?! Do you really

think I'm a beggar?!"

Although he said so, his hand otherwise without hesitation.

When he was about to get the fifty dollar in Amelia's hand, she abruptly withdrew her hand and muttered, "No... |

have to take a taxi hlater, which means | need to pay for my fare. | can't give you exactly fifty dollar."

Hearing that, the fat man who was full of excitement a moment ago scolded her furiously, "D*mn it! Are you

making fun ofnow?"

Amelia shook her head and replied, "No, I'm just telling the truth."

In the middle of stalemate, a group of men cout together from the bar.

Their shouting had driven Amelia to

Stumbling, Leo and the rest of them immediately cover. Their drunken gazes darted in between Amelia and

Kaiden before asking, "Hey Kaiden, why are you with Mrs. Hopper? Where's Mr. Patrick?" Amelia looked away

uncomfortably in pretense as if she had not heard their question.

Pursing his lips, Kaiden repliedly

quickly glanced at Kaiden. A trace of

shock as well as unspeakable

gratitude flashed across her eyes.

"Oh, | see..." None of them doubted. Their gaze then fell on the fat man next to them. One of them threw out the

question, "Then who is he?"

Kaiden replied in casualty, "Oh, this one? | heard him saying that Mrs. Hopper had accidentally stepped on his

shoes and he is now demanding two thousand dollar from her."

One of Kaiden's friends opened his mouth as soon as he heard this, "What the f*ck! Isn't him scamming?"

The fat man blurted out, "Who's scamming now? I'm not scamming! My shoes are branded! It's reasonable for

them to be more expensive!"

Kaiden looked at the handsman who had accused of the fat man scamming and said, "Mr. Stone, aren't you

from the anti-scam department? Now it's your turn to settle this. Don't you get softhearted!" "Of course! After all

this concerns Mrs. Hopper!"

Mr. Stone immediately heard someone clearing the throat from behind as soon as he finished his words.

Upon realizing something, he turned around and said to Amelia, "Forgivefor what I've said, Mrs. Hopper.

Amelia did not seem to have her pride triggered by his previous comment. She replied in a normal tone, "It's

fine. | had never researched into these."
