Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 386

After what seemed like a long time, Cynthia saw Patrick nod gently.

Then, she was taken into a dry and warm embrace. She choked up, having a feeling that all her waiting and efforts had come to an end in this hug!

"Goodbye, Cynthia."

"Goodbye... Patrick."

After seeing Cynthia off, Patrick was about to leave for Roxxon when his cell phone rang in his pocket. He took it out to have a look and found it was from home. "Hello, it's me."

The next second, the maid's rattled voice came, "Mr. Patrick, something bad has happened! Mrs. Eve... Something happened to Mrs. Eve!"

Amelia received the news slightly later. When she learned from Florence that Eve had taken too many sleeping pills at home last night and had been sent to the emergency room, she was so caught off guard.

Florence, who could not bear it anymore, cried, "Amelia! Why is it that in such a few days, our family seems to have changed completely? Dad ran away, and Mom committed suicide. Amelia, do you think our family is going to fall apart?"

Exaggerated as her words had been, they showed that Florence valued her family more than anything else. As the youngest kid in the family, she was beloved the most by Howard and Eve. The fact that her parents' relationship had deteriorated to such an extent was obviously a blow to Florence.

"No, it won't..." Amelia comforted her, not very convincing.

When Amelia drove to the hospital Florence had told her, she found Patrick was standing still outside the operating room like a statue. Beside him was only Florence, whose eyes were red from tears.

Looking at Patrick, who was full of sorrow, and Florence, who was no longer smiling, Amelia had an impulse to hug them and share their sadness.

Just as she was walking towards them, Florence, who had her back to Amelia, turned to Patrick and asked, "Patrick, who exactly is this Jocelyn? Where is her home? I'm going to find her now. I'm pulling her here to kneel in front of Mom and pray for Mom to be safe!"

Amelia paused slightly at her sudden announcements.

Patrick, who had seen her wife long ago, raised his eyebrows cruelly at Amelia's flustered face.

"Florence, don't worry. I've sent for Jocelyn."

His words were neutral, but the hostility was obvious in it. Amelia clenched her fists and perked herself up before getting closer to them again.

"Patrick, Florence!"

Hearing Amelia's voice, Florence turned back immediately. The hatred for Jocelyn in her eyes had not disappeared yet, which left Amelia a wrong feeling that Florence hated Amelia, too.

It was not until Florence spoke to her that the strange feeling was dispelled. "Amelia, Owen said that he has found out where Dad is. Now he is bringing Dad here with Nora."

Amelia asked, somewhat absent-minded, "How many sleeping pills has Eve taken at one time?"

"A whole bottle!" Out of her surprise, it was Patrick who answered her this time.
