Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 769

After the trip from Timothy Village, Amelia had since treated Huxton as a friend. And sometimes, she even forgot that he also was Patrick's subordinate...

Listening to Patrick's analysis, Amelia could not help asking herself if she was really in the wrong.

Was she overstepping by disregarding Patrick's intention and the orders he gave to Huxton, even though she had done so with goodwill?

"Wait a minute. That's not right!" thought Amelia.

She was the reason why Huxton was punished, so it was only reasonable for her to ask for his punishment to be lifted!

Instead, if she did not do or say anything, it would truly then be against common sense!

"Mr. Hopper, though what you said makes sense, but Huxton only got punished because of me. Secondly, I still stand my ground that I don't think he'll betray you, so..."

Under his cold gaze, Amelia's voice faltered with each word she said.

She eventually realized that this was not the time to argue with Patrick because sometimes, there was no room to negotiate with this man. He wanted to punish Huxton, but she wanted to protect him. It was a contradiction itself, so it was hard forthem to see eye to eye.

That was why she had no choice but to say, "Huxton knows he's wrong."

Patrick then asked sharply, "If he knew it, why didn't he find me earlier and admit his wrongdoing?"

Amelia added casually, "He has already prepared a spread full of a feast downstairs, waiting to apologize to you!"

Patrick glanced at her with ridicule, for he did not think Huxton would come up with such a weak way of apologizing.

If Huxton was sincere about it, he would have kneeled on the ground and let Patrick beat him to his heart's content for his mistake!

Turning his gaze away, Patrick uttered indifferently, "I don't accept his apology."

Amelia was slightly angered. "Why are you like this? You're so stubborn!"

An outrage appeared on her small face, which made her expression looked more vivid. Patrick could not help but raised his hand and cupped her blushing, tender face. He was caressing her supple cheeks when he asked slowly, "Then, what do you want me to do?"

Amelia's face was itching from his touch. Amelia then grabbed the hand that was touching all over her face and said, "I want you to eat the dinner that Huxton prepared!"

After pondering for a while, Patrick said miraculously, "That won't be a problem..."

Amelia's nervous expression softened at once.

But Patrick then gave her a sidelong glance and said. "Just that after dinner, he has to continue standing outside the house."

"No way!" Amelia was stunned for a second before hurriedly continuing, "If you eat Huxton's dinner, it means that you forgive him. But if you still plan to punish him, then you can't eat it!"

"Do you think I care about his cooking?" Hearing her calling Huxton's name in such a friendly way, Patrick's hand around her waist pulled her towards him retaliatingly, and satisfyingly hearing Amelia's whine.

Her moan was so sweet that it sounded like she was humming a melodic tune, her half-sobbing state hooked on his soul in an instant!

If she would serve herself as the 'dinner' and bring herself to him, maybe he would consider letting Huxton off.

After all, Patrick punished Huxton for two reasons.

Firstly, he wanted to vent his anger. Secondly, he wanted to stir up the guilt in Amelia's heart for her to come to him obediently and let him do whatever he wanted to her.

Amelia cursed Patrick in silence when Patrick yanked her to him with such force. She was pregnant, what if the baby slipped out? It would be impossible for him to compensate her then!

After that, Amelia felt depressed and frustrated when she recalled that Huxton had met with such an undeserving disaster because of her.
