Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 736

After Pauline left, Patrick's attention immediately fell onto the magazine on the dinner table. His intuition told him that Sissi's gaffe had something to do with that.

On the other side, Lindsay led Sissi to the bathroom while Sissi tried to recollect herself.

And though her hair and her back were wet and sticky from the spilt drinks, she still insisted on maintaining her elegance.

"Sissi, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you would raise your head so suddenly. Otherwise, I would have put the drink far away."

On their way to the toilet, Lindsay kept apologizing to her. Sissi was annoyed to the extreme, but she could not allow herself to show it. So, she could only reply magnanimously, "It's okay, just be more careful in the future."

Before entering the bathroom, Sissi and Lindsay met Amelia at the door.

Amelia looked relaxed as if she had done solving her own problem. And when she saw them, she greeted them with a smile, "Hey!"

Lindsay glanced at Amelia with a pique look. "Hey?

Get out of our way! Can't you see we need the toilet?"

Amelia then lightly brushed the tip of her nose and muttered aggrievedly in a soft voice, "What's going on? Did I offend you?"

Her words were 'accidentally' overheard by Sissi, whose eyes glinted, and she said to Amelia kindly, "Ms. Ramsay, my colleague has a little bit of a temper, but she means no malice."

"Well, I know..." Amelia waved her hand, showing nonchalance. "Don't you guys need the toilet? I won't disturb you any longer."

And with that, Amelia looked away and brushed past them.

Lindsay snorted at Amelia's fading figure and then said to Sissi, who was lost in her thoughts, "Sissi, look at her and her arrogant attitude. She's so annoying!"

Sissi stared at Lindsay with confusion. "What made you think she's arrogant?"

In all fairness, Amelia was extremely approachable. She was always smiling and laughing with everyone around her, imprinting good impressions of herself onto others.

However, this was exactly what Sissi feared the most. She was afraid Patrick would fall for her

charms and could not extricate himself from her.

Lindsay then replied with great prejudice, "Don't you think so too? Look how high she holds her chin. She looks as if she's afraid of going unnoticed."

Sissi was rendered speechless upon hearing her.

Instead of saying Amelia was looking down on them, it was more accurate to say that Lindsay had the wrongful illusion of Amelia because of her short height.

On the other side.

After returning to the dining table, Amelia looked down at Patrick as he flipped through the magazine and sat down quietly.

No one spoke for a while, and they did their own things.

Not long after, Patrick shut the magazine, and his dark eyes swept at Amelia when he asked seemingly casually, "Why were you gone so long?"

"I vomited a lot, so naturally, I was gone for a long time." After answering him, she then seemed to remember something and asked, "Oh, where's Pauline?"

Patrick vaguely told her what happened with Sissi being splashed with the drinks. Amelia gasped in surprise as a response, "How could that happen?

Lindsay is seriously so clumsy."

Patrick did not comment on that and only continued, "Is there anything else you want to eat?"

Amelia responded, "No, I don't really have the appetite. I don't think I can eat anything."
