Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 869

Patrick's gaze turned cold as soon as he heard him. "I'll be right there." After hanging up the call, he rushed to the hospital according to the address given by the headmaster without taking his meal beforehand.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon.

Amelia and Kaiden had already landed on the island. It was Simon who was waiting fortheir arrival.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wright and Ms. Amelia, it must have been tiring to travel all the way here. Please get into the car and take a rest."

"Thank you. Simon."

After greeting him, Amelia had gotten into the Lincoln with Kaiden.

Simon did not close the door right after they got onto the car. Instead, he asked, "Ms. Amelia, are you feeling hungry?"

Amelia shook her head as she answered, "No, I'm not hungry."

"Then, do you want something to drink?"

"No, I'm not thirsty either."

Simon did not further continue with his questions.

Amelia looked at Kaiden in confusion. He smiled at her understanding^ as if he could read her mind before he reached out to open the mini-fridge at the back seat.

All she could see was that the mini fridge was stuffed with all sort of fruits, champagne, beverages, snacks, chocolates and cakes.

Amelia glanced at Simon at the front seat and expressed her gratitude in surprise, "Simon, thank you!"

Simon had not expected her gratitude. Although he said nothing, Amelia could tell that her words had put a smile on his face before he gestured her that there was nothing to be thankful for.

Amelia could not bear at the thought of putting his good intention and effort into waste. Hence, she took out a box of cheese crackers from the fridge.

Since the crackers were packed in a box, such packaging had effectively avoided the cracker crumbs from falling off and messing up the backseat. Finishing up the crackers with Kaiden, perhaps this was the most effective way of shifting her attention from focusing on her anxiety.

Sawyer, who was a forest away from them, was sinking at his own thought as he stared at the things on the wall in this particular room.

Had someone broke into this room at this time, he

would have been frightened by the scene of it.

Every wall of this room were pasted with numerous photos. Every photos had successfully captured different expressions of the main focus at different occasions.

Regardless of the expressions, one thing to be sure was that they all belonged to the same person.

And that this person was supposed to be forgotten long ago.

Losing track of time, someone knocked the door when Sawyer was about to reach out and touch the woman in the photo.

"Mr. Quartley." It was Savannah who knocked.

Sawyer put his hand down and marched towards the door.

Opening the door, all he could see was Savannah having her back facing him as she stood. However, he was not infuriated with such an uncourteous behavior. In fact, he was the one that had demanded for her to do so.

Leaving the room, Sawyer carefully locked the door behind him.

After that, he spoke the middle-aged lady at her back, "Savannah, you can now turn to talk to me."

Turning around, Savannah bowed in respect before she said, "Mr. Quartley, Simon had already picked up

Mr. Wright and Ms. Amelia. They are now downstairs waiting for you."

Sawyer's eyes flickered as he suddenly asked, "Where's Abner?"

"He's now studying in his room with..."

Savannah was about to update Sawyer regarding Abner's home tutor before he interrupted, "Get Abner to meet Ms. Amelia downstairs. Oh yeah, you can tell the home tutor to dismiss the class earlier today."
