Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 448

Patrick who was pushed aside again was very angry. It seemed that his wife was adored by everyone wherever she went! Except for his mother.

Patrick wanted to interrupt but he was stopped by a man about the same age as him. The man advised him sincerely, "Patrick, it's fine. She belongs to everyone now. We're discussing about the game right now, just stay aside."

"I need to calm down! These people were my relatives. I couldn't scold or beat them!" Patrick kept convincing himself.

"Dear cousins, I'm coming!" The next second, Leah, who had finished her lunch, reappeared in everyone's eyes.

"Oh, no! It's the fangirl of the Dollar Family! She's coming, everyone, run!"

Suddenly, the men from The Hopper Family who were surrounding Amelia dispersed like birds fleeing fortheir life.

"Hey, why are you all running away?" Seeing that everyone had left the scene, Leah dropped her hand with a sense of disappointment. She then placed her hands on her hips and looked down at Amelia from above. "Can I take a sit here?" "Sure." Amelia had been sitting on the carpet for a while to make it easier to chat with others. After hearing Leah's words, she picked the pillow on the ground and hugged it in her arms, an empty space was created after the pillow was taken away.

Leah tidied her skirt with her hand and sat down in a ladylike position.

Amelia handed the fruit tray to her and said, "Here, have some."

Leah looked at the fruit tray, then she fixed her eyes at Amelia. She let out a strange smile and said, "You sure are big-hearted."

Amelia looked as calm as usual. "You're wrong. I'm actually very narrow-minded."

Leah lifted her eyebrows and said, "Then why did you pass me the tray? Don't you know that I came to Northville to snatch Patrick away from you?"

"What I know was I can only shut you off by stuffing your mouth with foods." Amelia was nibbling on sunflower seeds as she replied Leah.

Leah was stunned for a moment but then she quickly came back to her sense and said, "Oh, you are interesting."

Leah thought that Amelia would suffer or seek protection from Patrick when she ran into people like her. Little did she know, Amelia was actually good at playing games with her too.

Leah blinked her eyes to hide her interest. She then turned to watch the Christmas Gala that was being rebroadcast on TV.

After the host finished announcing the agenda of the next show, a figure showed up in the audience's eyes along with the stage elevator. A popular love song was then sung emotionally.

Leah's eyes lit up and Amelia's gaze froze. They stared at the television and called out the name of the singer at the same time, "Shawn?"

"Do you know him?" Immediately after that, they asked in unison.

Amelia and Leah looked at each other. Leah pouted unhappily and said, "Why are you mimicking me?"

It was Christmas and Amelia swore that she really did not want to quarrel with anyone.

Suddenly Leah asked in a mysterious way, "By the way, I heard you calling Shawn's name and from your expression, you seem to know him in person?"

"As a matter of fact, I do know him."

Amelia was surprised that Shawn had been so successful that he would be invited to participate in one of the top shows on the TV station.

"Are you his fan?" Leah asked in a hurry.

"For example, if they say that Patrick likes those who are thin, then I would grow fatter. If they say that Patrick likes those who are shy and reserved then I would act recklessly."

"As time passed, those cousins would no longer want to be friends with me. I think that's quite an achievement for me to withstand their orders until Patrick got married."

Upon hearing this, Amelia could not calm herself down. After a while, she said, "If what you said is true... Then aren't you really in a difficult situation?"

Leah let out a wry smile. "How many daughters of the aristocratic families can live a carefree life? Isn't she going to be manipulated by her parents for power and benefits?"

She added, "The only difference is some chose to resign to their fate and drift along with the tide, while others would fight fortheir own happiness as they wouldn't accept what was arranged for them."

"So you chose the latter?" An idea flashed through Amelia's mind. "So, Shawn is the happiness that you want to strive for?"

There was a hint of recollection in Leah's eyes. "Yep!" she said softly.

Amelia could not help but gossip more. "Tell me more, how did you fell in love with him?"

Leah put away her shyness and glanced at Amelia. "I'm not telling you."

Amelia felt helpless. "Alright, but your family... They wouldn't give up trying to pair you with Patrick,

wouldn't they?"

"That's why I have to get in touch with Shawn as soon as possible so that the things after that can go along with the flow," Leah answered seriously.
