Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 431

"Then..." Amelia wanted to ask when Hobart was going to hang up. The water in the bathtub was getting cold.

Hobart suddenly let out the laughter of schadenfreude. "It occurs to me that there's someone even poorer than me. I need to talk with him. That is sure to make me feel better..."

Amelia couldn't help but ask, "Who?"

"Who else could it be? Milton!" Hobart's laughter grew even louder.

Hearing him, Amelia replied calmly, "If you're going to tell him that I'm married, save it. He knew it a long time ago."

The beeping voice came.

Amelia took the phone from her ears to have a look and found that Hobart had hung up.

What happened?

She touched her chin in bewilderment. Finally, she put away the phone and said, carefree, "Whatever. I'm going to take a bath!"

As for Hobart...

He was sitting in the grand living room at home

with Maryanne on his left and his mother on his right. Noting that he had been sighing after the phone call, his mother turned her gaze from the TV she had been watching and gave Hobart a strange look. "Hobart, it is not the end of the world yet. Why are you pulling a long face?"

Hobart covered his heart and pretended to be heartbroken. "Mom, don't worry about me. Leave me alone with my sad moment."

Maryanne slid Hobart a sideways glance. "Hobart, how is your heart in a different position from others?"

Hobart hurried to shifted his hand from the right side of his chest to the left and announced to his younger sister, who had just ruined his moment, "Maryanne, I didn't plan to tell you. But since you've brought it up, I'd better tell you the truth as soon as possible."

Had she? Had she brought anything up?

Maryanne scratched her head in confusion but still followed Hobart's words and asked, "What do you want to tell me? Go ahead."

Hobart looked straight into her eyes with the thought that they should share the terrible news and declared, "Patrick is married."

But Maryanne didn't shout as Hobart thought she should have. Instead, she asked in puzzlement, "He

is married?"

Hobart nodded heavily.

Maryanne took some time to digest his words. "It's surprising that he's married!"

Finding no sadness from her face, Hobart asked in disbelief, "Do you have anything else to say other than that?"

"I do!" Maryanne got closer to Hobart, rolling her eyes as she said, "Who is his wife? She must also come from a famous family as Patrick does, right? Don't tell me she's from a family influential in the government. Heavens, if that's the case, her family would be so invisible!"

Hobart had no idea at the thought of Amelia. He had never heard of her name related to any celebrity. If her family had something to do with the government, it should be hard to keep it a secret, shouldn't it?

After pondering for a long time, Hobart felt as if his head was about to explode. Finally, he sighed and gave up. "Well, I don't know Amelia's family either."
