Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

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." From NôvelDrama.Org.

There were two reasons for Patrick doing this.

Firstly, he must ensure that the location of Sissi's house arrest was absolutely safe, reliable, and even comfortable. However, it was impossible to distinguish the living conditions through the video call alone. Maybe Howard would lock her up in a well-decorated basement.

Secondly, Sissi would be insecure when she was in a strange environment. Plus, Christian had threatened her. It was only fair that she was in a bad mood.

Thinking back on their conversation earlier, Sissi's words were pitiable. Furthermore, Howard's house arrest was inhumane to her. Patrick's heart softened and agreed to visit her personally.

"Amelia, what do you say?" Howard gave Amelia a glance, using his eyes to hint at her to refuse him fiercely.

Amelia smiled and said unexpectedly, "It doesn't matter to me."

Patrick's heart sank. He gritted his teeth and felt like it was about to bleed. His instincts told him that Amelia had abandoned the marriage, but she did not say it out loud for Howard's sake.

Howard's eyes suddenly opened wide, shocked by her words. "You, you don't care?!" How could this not be a matter!

Amelia nodded and said, "Dad, I think you should agree. Patrick is the father of the child. He has the right to visit his child. If you stop him and if anything happens to the child, won't you become the culprit?"

For a moment, everyone could not figure out what Amelia was thinking, including Sissi, who was also a woman!

Howard asked confusedly, "Amelia, do you know what you are talking about?"

Amelia's beautiful face was expressionless. "I know."

Howard was speechless.

Catching a glimpse of the old man's face, Amelia comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

Howard knew that she had other tricks up her sleeve. Waving his hand, he replied, "Forget about it, since Amelia has already pleaded for you, then let's agree on it for the time being! With my guards, I'm sure you can't play any tricks!"

Sissi's expression became happier after hearing this. Honestly, she was the one who was afraid that Howard would do the lynching!

After all, she had let down Patrick once, and she was claimed to be the child's mother. This ruined Patrick and Amelia's marriage.

She had done it twice in a row, Howard had every

right to hate her in his heart.

Therefore, she could only try her best to earn Patrick's rights to visit her every week. This way, it would not be easy for Howard to torture her secretly!

As for Amelia, Sissi never thought that she would agree to divorce Patrick so readily!

On the contrary, she could not understand Patrick's attitude. Although he said it was for her and her child's good, it was not difficult for her to find that his eyes often lingered around Amelia. Whenever he did not get a response from Amelia, the atmosphere around him would get colder!

How could Sissi, with so much experience, not understand what this meant?

However, she did not intend to help Patrick, who seemed to be in a dilemma. Who would be so stupid as to help their rival in love?

That was what Sissi thought, and she could not help but roll her eyes at Amelia secretly.

"We still have a long way to go. Let's wait and see who will be the winner!"
