Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 961

She could not stop loving people who cherished her.

Although Andrew was a shy person who was not good at talking, at the same time he was an observant and sensitive one. He immediately came to notice that something was off for Amelia. He asked concerningly, "What's wrong, Amelia?"

As a grown-up, Amelia would not cry right in front of the kids. She tried to blink away her tears before she said to the kids, "There's nothing wrong. I was just dazing. By the way, I promised your mommy that I'm going to check your homework. Faster, let me in. I would like to see your progress."

"Huh?!" Upon hearing this, Ashley's shoulder sagged in dejection.

Amelia comforted, "It's okay, Ashley. Don't look for the answer right away if you can't solve the mathematical questions. I can teach you on solving them."

Andrew pursed his lips. He tried to contain himself from telling Amelia that he had already taught Ashley the solutions to the answer earlier. However, Ashley still felt that copying was the quickest shortcut to answers.

Ashley said gloomily, "There's only one person in this world who can save my mathematics which is my uncle..."

Andrew agreed to his sister this time, "Yes. Ashley is motivated to study every time when uncle is here."

Amelia was stunned upon hearing this.

Patrick had turned around and returned to the hall right after he replied "nonsense".

Eventually, he had not followed her upstairs this time.

She thought he must be angry.

After all, these days she had been hurting his pride from time to time.

Amelia could tell that Ashley was dispirited to finish her homework. She could not help saying, "Actually your uncle is here too."

"Really?!" Ashley exclaimed in a high-pitched voice.

Amelia had no other choice but to nod in reassurance. Apparently, Patrick had this kind of irresistible charm that would work magically on females of all ages.

Andrew interrupted, "Then why had uncle not followed you upstairs?"

Amelia was stumbled by this question. She could not have possibly told the truth that she had not allowed him to follow her upstairs. That would sound wholly bizarre and cruel for the kids.

Ashley never hesitated to express her feeling. She came hugging Amelia's thigh and rubbing her face against her belly while she said girlishly, "I want uncle Patrick, too!"

Gosh!

Amelia could feel herself melting away.

It might be because of the spot that Ashley was rubbing against. After all, there was a new life that Amelia was carrying underneath her belly.

Hence, the overwhelming affection shown by a kid in particular was hard to resist.

Upon deliberating, Amelia said, "Most probably your uncle is downstairs using the washroom. I'll go down and call him upstairs while you return to your room and finish your homework."

Ashley and Andrew had believed her.

"That's great. If it were not mommy who said that we are not allowed to go out from this room unless we finish our homework, I'll go downstairs to call uncle upstairs on my own."

After grumbling, Ashley waved at Amelia and said, "Amelia, please come back to us fast. Otherwise, I'm not in a mood to solve my mathematic questions."

Andrew too fixed his gaze at Amelia in hope that she would return to them soon.

As compared to Patrick whose expression was serious all the time, Andrew preferred Amelia's companion more.

Not to mention that he had already finished his homework. All he needed at this moment was someone to talk to.

"Yes, I'll be right back."
