Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 554

"Hobart! You don't have to do this!" Amelia wanted to stop him but she was a little too late.

In a blink of an eye, the manager had already taken Hobart's card and headed for the card machine happily.

Amelia tried to run after the manager but Hobart held her back. Hobart asked in surprise, "Why are you running after her?"

"Why did you give her your card?" Amelia stomped her feet anxiously.

Hobart replied truthfully, "You're the one who said you accidentally knocked over her clothes rack and dirtied her clothes. You don't look like someone who would carry a few thousand around, so I paid it for you. Can't I do that?"

"But..."

"There's no 'but'," Hobart said with a grin and a look at her with understanding in his eyes. "Did you argue with Patrick? Did he deliberately embarrass you in public? I'm not going to let you get embarrassed. Women are meant to be spoilt, especially beauties like you." "Humph!"

Amelia looked over followed the cold hum. She saw that the beauty that Hobart was holding in his arms was looking at her as if she was a formidable enemy. She could not help but ask, "Who is this lady?"

"Oh, my cousin."

The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. Why would he be holding her cousin in his arms?

Hobart turned to the little girl in his arms and said, "That's enough, I'll just take you here. You can wander around as you like. Just remember you can buy everything you like using my account."

The little beauty's eyes went red but obviously, she did not have the power to negotiate with Hobart. She could only stammer, "Alright..." Then, she released her hand that was wrapped around Hobart's waist.

At this moment, the manager had already happily returned with Hobart's silver card and said with a particularly sensible tone, "It turns out that you are Mr. Smith from Mills. You should have told me earlier. I will definitely give you some offer."

Hobart's charming eyes landed on the female manager's face, his eyes were shockingly stunning. "And it's still worth five hundred thousand after the offer?"

The female manager laughed twice. Obviously, what she said just now was just a pleasantry. She was not being modest when it came to take the money that she should take.

She just did not expect that a cheapskate like Amelia could make friends with Hobart and was willing to spend a lot of money on her. Such a person could only be please and not offended.

After a pause, the manager changed to a much respectful tone and said to Amelia, "Miss, since Mr. Smith has paid for you, then all these clothes and dresses are yours now. Can you tell me your address? I'll pack them up and send them to your place."

"That's right, consider this a gift from me to you." Hobart immediately regretted his words. He was such an idiot, how could he send dirty clothes and dresses to Amelia as a gift?

Upon hearing Hobart's words, all those around who knew Amelia's status showed a strange expression. They were wondering what was happening.

Mr. Hopper did not pull his wife back when his wife needed his help. Instead, he even looked on coldly as an observer.

It was not until Hobart from Mills generously paid for Amelia's clothes. Only then did Amelia's urgency was solved.

Not only did he pay for it, Hobart still gifted them to Amelia. Wasn't it a little too deliberate to give others gifts in front of their husbands?

Those who knew the truth were waiting for Patrick's response but he did not give any.

Someone guessed that Patrick and Hobart were partners, so they were naturally close friends. There was nothing to be surprised about Hobart giving gift to Amelia.

"Alright then." The girl pretended to nod reluctantly but in her heart, she was overjoyed. Hobart was really a generous benefactor. It was just that he had

never spent so much money on her!

Instead of pestering and annoying him which would let her ended up with nothing in return. The girl would rather be Hobart's 'cousin' at the moment!

"Well, Hobart, I'm leaving then." The girl adjusted her mood and told her address to the manager. After repeatedly telling the manager that she had to personally accept the delivery, she left while twisting her waist.

As soon as his female companion left, Hobart immediately felt relieve and he said to Amelia, "My cousin has left, shouldn't we leave too?"

Amelia was speechless as she looked at him. Her feelings towards Hobart had always been a friend and a foe.

He was a typical philanderer. He had once bullied her but he had also given her a lot of help. Hence... she was unable to be enthusiastic towards him at this moment. She was also too embarrassed to be overly cold towards him. It was really troublesome to deal with him.

Hobart, however, was very good at figuring out women's thoughts and he knew how to open his mouth in order to make her unable to reject him. "By the way, Maryanne and Milton seem to have had some problems over the past few days. Maryanne even travelled abroad because of this. Don't you

think we should have a chat?"

Amelia pointed at herself and then at him with a confused look. "We? Have a chat?"

Hobart said matter-of-factly, "That's right. Look at these two people. One of them is my sister and the other is your childhood friend. Now that they're in conflict with each other, shouldn't we, as their closest relatives be the ones to give them advice and suggestions?"

"Make sense." Amelia wondered if she could persuade Hobart to rearrange the date of the marriage between Milton and Maryanne. In this way, Milton would not be under so much pressure.
