Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 916

Sissi's teary eyes were a little shocked. She could not deny that Patrick's words did sound somewhat reasonable.

"Patrick, I'm sorry, I said these things on impulse. You've always been doing good for me, otherwise... Why did you say that the baby is yours? But now, the situation is serious. Uncle Howard would surely be locking me up. I don't know what I will be facing in the future?" She said with pain.

Patrick thought for a while. He also realized that it was a problem.

But very quickly, he said, "I know my father. I don't think he will do anything to you. He just wants to stop us from meeting up. You can rest assured that I will find a way to save you during this time!"

Sissi narrowed her watery eyes and said, "But, it's always better safe than sorry. No one can guarantee that Uncle Howard will not take it out on me."

The two of them whispered to each other for a while. After that, Patrick nodded to Sissi and then turned back. He said to Howard who was waiting impatiently, "Dad, how do I know if you abuse her privately?"

Howard glared at Sissi. He knew that this woman would always want to make some trouble. "Why do I need to torture her? I can't wait for her to give birth to the baby, and get away from me as far as she can!"

"It's not a problem if you want me to hand her over to you. But you're just giving me a verbal promise, it's far from enough." Patrick said calmly.

Howard thought for a while and said gruffly, "Well, I'll let you have a video call with her every month, and you can make sure that they are both safe and sound with your own eyes. Is that okay?"

Patrick subconsciously glanced at Sissi, he bargained with Howard seeing her reluctance, "No, one month is too long."

Howard asked with a dark face, "How long do you need?"

Patrick's thin lips said a shocking answer, "Every day."

Howard's mind went blank for a brief moment.

When he finally came back to his senses, he stomped his feet and said, "B*stard! Don't go too far!"

Patrick said timely, "Dad, why don't we both take a step back and change it to every week."

Howard looked at Amelia instantly, only to find that she looked calm. He hesitated and said, "Video calling once every week, right? Uh... It's not impossible."

Patrick then added, "I don't think we need to make a video call. I'll go meet Sissi every week to make sure both the mother and child are safe."

Howard was stunned for a moment, then his face became contorted, and he said, "You still want to meet her?!"

Patrick nodded and said, "Dad, nowadays the technology is so advanced. What if you find a woman who is pregnant and looks almost the same as Sissi while I'm not paying attention, and get away with it on the other side?"

Howard was so angry that he nearly died. "You little b*stard... I'm not one to do things like this!"

"Who knows?" Patrick shrugged his shoulders.

Patrick was getting greedier by the second, Howard stuck to his bottom line and said, "It doesn't matter what you say. This is nothing to talk about!"

Patrick argued, "Dad, I met up with Sissi just to ensure the safety of the mother and child. I will not do anything unnecessary. If you don't trust me, you can keep an eye on me. I promise I won't mess around! Give me five minutes or three minutes or even one minute, I'll leave after seeing that she is okay."

There were two reasons for Patrick doing this.
