Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 908

Apart from that, Howard was polite yet distant when facing Sissi.

Even though Patrick had made up his mind over her back then, Howard had never shown much concern for her.

For this reason, Sissi had always thought that this was how Howard always behaved. Even Patrick had said so.

Sissi realized that it was not because of Howard's indifference, but because Howard made nothing of Sissi.

And the apple of Howard's eye has appeared! This woman was like someone who was about to watch a comedian. She was sitting elegantly in the audience's seats, waiting for her clumsy performance to start.

At this time, Patrick looked at her and said, "Sissi, let's have a seat."

"Okay," Sissi answered in a low voice, as if she was lost in thought.

After they sat down, Howard looked at Sissi and asked, "Ms. Sissi Roberts, where did we stop just now?"

Patrick and Amelia looked at her at the same time, waiting for the inception of the topic.

Sissi pursed her lips and answered timidly, "Uncle Howard just asked me... whether my return to Northville was deliberately planned?"

Hearing that, the canthus of Howard's eye twitched. He was so angry!

He had clearly asked her what her purpose was for coming back to Northville. Why did this woman say it like they were conspiracies?

Was she not deliberately provoking Patrick?

Just as expected, Patrick said coldly, "Dad, what you've said is ridiculous. Sissi was born in Northville. Her coming back to her native land was called returning home."

Howard looked at his son and said aggressively, "I'm asking Ms. Sissi. Why are you interjecting in such a hurry? It's not the time for you to talk yet!"

Patrick's eyes turned frigid.

With the first point of contact between the father and son of The Hopper Family, the smoldering coals were about to start burning.

If Sissi was the catalyst, then Amelia was the inhibitor.

She reminded gently, "Dad, Patrick, Ms. Sissi hasn't said anything yet. Don't quarrel amongst yourself."

With one sentence, she brought the origin of the contradiction back to Sissi.

Sissi lowered her eyelids slightly to hide her hatred.

Before that, she wanted to stir up conflict between the father and son, so that she could extricate herself from the mess. However, the situation returned to its original state just because of Amelia's word!

Howard coughed lightly and said, "Amelia's right."

He pointed at the stack of documents and photos he had brought over on the coffee table. "Ms. Sissi, according to my investigation, you’ve returned to Northville for over a month and during this period of time, you've received a house that Patrick bought for you. He provided you a high-paying job too. There were even records of two of you appearing in the public several times. I couldn't help but suspect that you're here because of Patrick. What do you think of that, Ms. Sissi?"

Sissi's face changed slightly. She did not expect Howard to have made such careful investigation, which made her glance at

Patrick subconsciously and tried to ask for his help.

However, Amelia reached out and slapped Patrick's thigh.
