Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 80

Withdrawing her right hand from Milton's palm, Amelia stood up and looked straight into Patrick's sharp eyes.

The clean and neat black suit made him look heroic, but also unapproachable.

"You followed me here." Amelia said with certainty.

Patrick glanced at her with cold eyes and didn't say a word.

After a slight astonishment, Milton's facial expression returned normal. He thought that as long as Patrick dared to abuse Amelia, he would fight against him. How wonderful it would be!

Unfortunately, Patrick invited, "Aren't you having some snacks? Join me?"

Milton smirked and thought Patrick's reaction really let him down.

Amelia refused the invitation, "Milton and I are fond of spicy food and I'm afraid that you won't like it."

Patrick smiled faintly and said, "Sometimes it's good to change the taste."

However, Amelia responded, "Since Mr. Hopper is used to porridge and dishes with light flavour, then how will you enjoy the spicy food?"

It was obvious that the "porridge and dishes with a light flavor" referred to Cynthia, while "spicy food" referred to Amelia herself.

Patrick said softly but convincingly, "If I don't try, how do you know that I can't?"

"Oh, really?" Amelia didn't believe him.

Neither one wanted to compromise, so Milton said, "Amelia, since your husband insists, let's join him."

Glaring at Milton, Amelia couldn't believe that he "betrayed" her at such a critical moment.

Patrick nodded, with his dark eyes demonstrating his strong determination.

At Welcoming Chinese Hotpot Restaurant.

As soon as they sat down, Milton said wistfully, "I haven't come here for so long. I wonder if the previous boss, uncle Lee, is still welcoming guests here?"

As if something interesting had been evoked, Amelia said with her eyebrows arching, "You'd better pray that uncle Lee has retired. Otherwise, he would recall you leaving without paying a few years ago.

Milton's handsome face fell. He was used to being shameless, but he didn't want to be in a disadvantageous position in front of Patrick, so he said, "I did pay him later! Don't mention this anymore!"

Listening to them about their memories, Patrick felt uneasy.

After a while, a waiter came up and asked what they wanted. Amelia asked, "Is the previous boss, uncle Lee, still here?"

The waiter said, "Oh, uncle Lee has retired at home. Now his son Raphael and his daughter Emma are in charge of the restaurant."

Before Amelia could ask if uncle Lee was in good health, Patrick, who was sitting beside her, said, "Hurry up and order, please. I'm hungry."

Amelia frowned immediately as Cynthia cooked for him at home.

So she didn't want Patrick to be happy and said to the waiter, "An extremely spicy hotpot please."

The waiter asked, "Half spicy and half clear soup?"

There was a piece of board between the pot separating two totally different flavours.

But Amelia said straightforwardly, "No! A pure extremely spicy hotpot please!"

When saying this, she glanced at Patrick, who couldn't stand the spicy food and might leave soon.

Patrick remained indifferent and silent, calmly drinking the lemon water.

Compared to mustard, Amelia was keen on the the spiciness of the hotpot.

In the boiling soup with a layer of spicy oil, she stirred a few pieces of beef with chopsticks and boiled them. The white fog with the aroma of the food blew on her face, stimulating her taste buds.

Amelia gobbled as if she had been starving for days. Seeing this and loving her dearly, Milton helped her pick the meat from the boiling pot.
