Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 260

But Amelia didn't dare complain. Instead, she greeted with a smile, "Eve, you're here?"

Eve wondered and frowned, "Don't you remember that I came last night? I stayed overnight here."

Amelia felt embarrassed, "Sorry, I was drunk last night. I didn't do or say anything weird, did I?" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"What do you think?" Eve looked at her contemptuously, "If it weren't for you, I'd be wearing clothes of such poor quality?"

Amelia was confused, since she really didn't remember anything.

"Where do you keep your dirty clothes? I'll wash them by hand." Amelia knew that Eve's clothes were very expensive and could not be washed in a washing machine.

Eve slowly took a sip of black tea and said, "I have thrown away the clothes. If you really feel sorry then go buy a new set for me. Oh, by the way, I am already used to wearing real silk, don't buy the fake one to fool me."

Amelia was amazed that Eve was even more wasteful than Patrick, who would have her clean the dirty laundry, but Eve just threw the dirty laundry away!

"Have you had breakfast yet? I'm going to make it for you."

Eve interrupted her coldly, "Don't you dare change the subject? You go buy me clothes now! I'll be dressed up later to show my friends!"

Amelia thought Eve was a pain in the ass, but still tried to convince her, "It's early in the morning and the stores aren't even open yet, so if I go out, who's going to make breakfast for you and Patrick?"

Eve snorted, "No, I can make my own breakfast, you go get me some clothes."

Amelia bit her lip lightly, feeling very unreasonable about Eve, and she unconsciously looked up to Patrick's room on the second floor, hoping he would come out to help her at this point.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as hoped and Eve scoffed, "Want to wait for Patrick to get up and come down to help you?"

Amelia gritted her teeth and finally forced herself to give in to Eve, "I'll go right now."

Amelia hoped that there wouldn't be an argument, as long as she appeased Eve, she wasn't really having a hard time. Amelia reassured herself that at least everyone else in The Hopper Family was being polite and treating her with respect.

Shortly after Amelia left the house, the door to the master bedroom was flung open by Patrick who dressed in a shirt and slacks.

He got up on the wrong side of the bed, and the last thing he wanted to do when he woke up was to make love to Amelia, but she had gone off somewhere early in the morning, making him get up and look for her.

"Patrick!" At this time, a familiar voice downstairs called back Patrick's thoughts.

Patrick stiffened, he quickly raised his hand and buttoned his shirt before he walked down the stairs. "Mom, where's Amelia?"

Eve pouted. "You only care about her?"

Patrick held Eve's shoulder and sat side by side with her, "in my heart, you are the most important person."

Eve smiled happily, "great."

"Well, Mom..." Patrick looked around the living room. "Are you hungry? I'm going to ask Amelia to make breakfast."

The smile on Eve's face faded a little. "So, you want to know where she is? Patrick, can't you stay away from her for a while?"

Patrick felt nervous. "Mom, I didn't."

Eve said proudly, "She threw up on me last night and I sent her out to buy me new clothes."

Patrick felt uneasy, "It's only 7:30, what mall would open that early?"

Eve rightfully said, "It doesn't open that early, so she can wait. Are you distressed for her?"

Patrick frowned and quickly relaxed. "Why do you always ask that question?"

"It doesn't mean anything, I just want to ask," Eve asked righteously.

Amelia parked the car in the busiest commercial street in the Northville, but almost every brand store didn't open until nine o'clock.

Amelia felt hungry and entered a bakery shop. After ordering a nutritious breakfast, she sat outside and enjoyed the warm sunshine and breeze in the early morning.

She suddenly felt that it was good to leave the house, at least she didn't have to please Eve.

Time passed by slowly. When it was close to ten o'clock, Amelia sorted out the magazine on the table and was about to leave, she saw a car driving in front of her and it stopped in a high-end residential area.

At first, Amelia did not take it seriously but soon she glanced at the face of the owner of the car, she was stunned.

It was Howard. He bypassed the front of the car, opened the door of the passenger side, and politely welcomed a woman out of the car.

Amelia knew that she shouldn't make a fuss about it. The lady was likely to be Howard's acquaintance or classmate she looked delicate and graceful, with a reserved temperament. And it looked like she was about 40 years old.

They walked into the upscale neighborhood, the woman first into the building, Howard followed the woman, this could be the woman's home

"Howard meets his friend so early..." Amelia muttered to herself.

What she didn't know was that Howard didn't return to The Hopper Family at all last night!

During her pondering, all the clothes counter stores behind Amelia were open and she didn't have time to think about Howard, so she turned into the counter store and helped Eve pick out the silk dress she wanted.

Based on Eve's picky personality, Amelia wouldn't dare to just buy her a few dollars worth of shirts like she'd done with Patrick. After observing for a long time, she spotted a set dress suitable for middle-aged people, and before swiping her card she asked the attendant, "Hello, I bought this dress for a senior member of the family. Can I return it if it's not the right size?"

After all, a set of clothes was worth more than her one month's salary.

The shop assistant understood and said, "Yes, as long as you don't cut off the sign, don't wash it or damage it deliberately, you can return it to our shop at any time in three days."

"Thank you!" Amelia said happily.

At Land of Fragrance.

When Amelia returned home, Eve looked as if she waited for her so long that she was about to fall asleep. "Where have you been? You came home so late."

Amelia didn't want to contradict her, and under Patrick's watchful eye she handed Eve the clothes package, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but I've already bought what you asked."

Eve looked at her with a fake smile and said, "What, you want me to take it out myself?"
