Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 882

As for the existence of that kid, not only he had never heard it from Sissi herself, none of his classmates had ever spread any rumors of her pregnancy. This was more than enough to suggest that the kid was a mystery to everyone.

"Could it be that it was a stillborn baby?" Patrick began to make a wild guess.

Rubbing his temple, Patrick had no other choice but to convince himself this way.

On the other hand, Amelia had already come out from the Land of Fragrance. She could not help touching her handbag as she had brought along her passbook in it. She was going to use her savings to buy herself a car.

Originally, she thought that she was going to invite Patrick to come along with her so that he could give her some valuable opinions. This was also the reason she had dressed up early in the morning.

Thinking that after she placed order of car, she could subsequently take the chance to invite him to spend time with her elsewhere in order to mend the gap between them.

Unfortunately, the reality never went as planned. It would be so much easier if she merely dreamt of it. With Sissi by his side, she meant nothing to Patrick anymore.

Sneering, Amelia hailed a taxi and got into the car immediately. Upon telling the driver that she needed to head to 4S store, she began to sit back and digest her anger and disappointment.

"Miss, we've arrived."

"How much is the taxi fare?"

"Fifty-two dollar." The driver handed over the receipt to Amelia.

She confirmed the amount of fares from the receipt again before she took out the exact amount of cash from her purse. After paying the driver, she had later came to the entrance of 4S store.

Amelia could not help furrowing as soon as she saw the familiar brand logo on the signboard of the shop.

"D*mn it! Why am I here to visit the shop of Patrick's best friend?"

"Humph! Don't you ever expect that I'm going to let your best friend earn my money after what you've done to me today!" Amelia cursed in her heart.

She then turned around and left.

Before Amelia could leave, she could hear the sound of footsteps shuffling from the back. Followingly, she heard someone calling, "Mrs. Hopper?"

Amelia did not stop. She wanted to turn a deaf ear. After all, he did not call out her name.

The next second, the voice from the back called again, "Ms. Ramsay?"

Amelia paced up without looking back. She tried to convince herself that there was more than one person with the last name of 'Ramsay' out there.

Followingly, he called out, "Ms. Amelia Ramsay? My best friend, Patrick's wife?"

Amelia knew that it would be too pointless if she continued to pretend as if she had not heard him calling.

Pausing, she gradually turned to her back and glanced at the person who had called out for her numerous time.

The man who was walking towards her was no doubt a good-looking man. With a touching of red necktie, he was smiling at her friendly.

Even though Amelia had only seen him for once at night, his outstanding appearance along with the fact that he claimed to be Patrick's best friend was more than enough to leave an impression on Amelia.

Nonetheless, she did not expect that she was going to bump into Charles Sullivan.

Pulling herself from the thought, she greeted faintly, "Hi, Mr. Sullivan. What a coincidence!"

Blinking, Charles replied, "I had not expect that you actually remember me."

Smiling, Amelia said, "It is more than enough that you had been having us in mind. It doesn't matter whether there's a gift or not."

Pausing, Charles asked concerningly, "Oh yeah, I saw you wandering in front of our store just now. May I know if..."

Eyes flickering, Amelia tried to make up an excuse, "Oh, I was just passing by!"

"I see." Nodding understandably, Charles had come up with another plan on his mind. He continued to say, "Since fate had brought us together, why don't you drop by my store before leaving?"

Amelia hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, it's okay. My friend is waiting for me. I shall leave now."

Charles replied enthusiastically, "Where are you heading to? Let me give you a lift."

Amelia fell into a dilemma. She was not familiar with this place at all. If she by mistake mentioned any place which was thousands of miles away from here, then there was no doubt that Charles was going to catch her lying.

She had no other choice but to say, "Mr. Sullivan, I'm sure that you have a handful of things to deal with. I don't want to take up your time."

Charles thought for a moment and said, "Well, since Patrick is not working today, why not I call him now so that he can come over? After all, it's not safe for someone as pretty as you to wander on the street alone."

"How could he be so clingy?!" Amelia screamed from her heart.

Charles was no doubt a pain in her ass. She came to think that he was doing this on purpose so that he could cheat her into spending money at his shop. If this was the case, then he was indifferent from any

of those cunning persons around her!

Taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth and forced a smile on her face, "Mr. Sullivan! Now I suddenly remember that my friend had sent me a text message a while ago. I guess she isn't feeling quite well at the moment. Do you mind if I drop by at your shop and have a seat?"
