Patrick retorted with a strange look on his face, "Isn't it supposed to be girls who act cutely get the best?"
"Well... it works for both boys and girls." Ashley insisted.
Patrick suppressed his impulse to sigh facing upwards. "Then why didn't I succeed?"
Ashley sized him up and said, "Maybe... you're a little unlucky today."
Patrick also took his revenge, "Don't forget, you didn't succeed either."
"Even if I have bad luck, you are not that good either." Patrick complained in his heart. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Ashley was speechless.
At Streams Villa.
Hearing the harsh 'beep' in her ear, Amelia only smiled. Then she slowly put her cell phone down and asked Abner, whose hair was still messy, "Do you still feel sleepy?"
Abner nodded.
Amelia's expression got more guilty. "Do you still want to sleep for a while?"
Abner shook his head.
He was sleepy, but he did not want to sleep anymore...
Amelia did not know how to deal with this situation, until she lowered her head and saw the graphic book and snacks on the ground.
Raising her eyes, she flatteringly asked the little boy on the cot, "Would you like to have some snacks while auntie tells you a story?"
Hearing that, Abner gently nodded. What he longed for was not story nor snacks. He simply liked to stay by Amelia's side.
Time flew in the blink of an eye, the night had fallen.
Amelia accompanied Abner to finish a graphic book completely. Snacks and orange juice that Savannah had sent in before were also mostly eaten by them.
But no one had come to inform them about dinner time, even Savannah had not appeared for a long time.
Amelia tilted her head down to check the time on her wristwatch again. It was almost 7 o'clock.
Considering the route, it would be late past midnight when she got back to Land of Fragrance.
Amelia's facial expression slightly changed, and then she remembered that she had already had a bad relationship with Patrick. She needed not to worry about their relationship to worsen. So, she continued to wait calmly.
At this moment, there came two knocks on the door.
Amelia quickly opened her eyes, raised her volume and said, "Come in, please!"
She guessed that the person would be Savannah.
When the door opened, it was certainly Savannah who looked ordinary but kind. Amelia nodded happily at her.
Savannah first looked at Abner. Seeing that Abner had woken up, she turned to Amelia and said, "Ms. Ramsay, Abner's grandma came to see him."
"Is it?" Amelia was stunned.
Savannah saw that she seemed to be a little nervous, so she further explained, "Yes, madam is downstairs. I told her that Abner may still be sleeping, so she let me to come in to have a look first. It's okay, Ms. Ramsay, don't worry. Madam is a kind and friendly person."
Amelia came to her senses and asked, "Then, do you need me to leave for a while?"
Savannah smiled and said, "Let me ask madam."
The next second, she heard a voice coming from behind, "No need."
Savannah was stunned. She quickly turned around and saw a noble-dressed woman standing at the door.
An unknown emotion flashed in Savannah's eyes, but she said respectfully, "Madam, you've come."
Andrea nodded to Savannah and said, "Yes, you may leave first."
Savannah subconsciously looked into the room and said, "But, there's still someone...inside...with Abner..."
Andrea interrupted gently, "I've heard about it from Simon. I've known that young lady before, you don't have to worry."
Savannah nodded and said, "I see, then I'll go downstairs."
"Oh, by the way." Andrea glanced at Savannah and added, "Inform the chefs to prepare an extra portion tonight. I'm staying for dinner."
Savannah paused for a while and said, "Yes, madam."
After Savannah went downstairs, Andrea reached out and pushed the door which was already halfopened. She went into the room.
At the moment, Amelia had already carried Abner down the cot. The moment she saw Andrea, she suddenly realized that it was Andrea who had just
said 'no need'.
She looked really elegant.
Although it was not the first time they had seen each other, Amelia could not help but expressed such emotion.
Fortunately, they did not remain silent for too long. Andrea took the initiative to greet her. "Nice to see you again, young lady."
Young lady?
Amelia felt a little embarrassed and held back from saying that she was actually not young anymore. "Nice... nice to meet you... Madam Andrea."
While Andrea was looking at her with great interest, Amelia's voice paused. She turned around and sent Abner, who was attached by her side, to Andrea. "Abner, greet your grandma."
Abner did not utter a word.
Amelia looked awkward.
Andrea did not bother as she was used to it. She smiled at Abner and said, "Hey, it's only been a few days that I haven't seen you, and you have forgotten me again?"
Abner did not speak and lowered his eyes as if he had not heard Andrea who took the initiative in starting the conversation.
Amelia squatted down in a hurry and whispered in Abner's ear, "Abner, can you do me a favor? Just greet your granny and I'll buy you a new toy on my next visit, okay?"
Amelia was actually trying to please Andrea deliberately. There was no doubt in treating Andrea well, as she was Abner's grandmother, Sawyer's mother.
What was more was that Andrea could come over to pay Abner a visit. This proved that her relationship with Sawyer should be fine.
At this extend, as long as she could win Andrea's heart through Abner, perhaps... Sawyer would be willing to give more benefits to the Apex Construction Corporation.
Amelia's enticement towards Abner was actually negligible. As long as he asked for it, he could have all kinds of toys. He needed not expect toys from Amelia.
But Abner surprisingly did Amelia this favor. He turned to look at Andrea and called emotionlessly, "Granny."
"Oh, his voice is so soft and cute."
Amelia really wanted to pat him, but she had to restrain herself because of Andrea's presence.
Andrea was shocked hearing Abner call her. She said to Amelia, "I heard from Simon that Abner was extremely close to you. I thought it was just a joke, but not until now."
Andrea bent down and held Abner in her arms as she spoke.
Abner grew up in Streams Villa since young, and he was raised up mostly by Savannah. Therefore, he did not have much intention to get close to Andrea. However, in order to do Amelia a favour, Abner did not resist to be hugged by Andrea.
With Abner in her arms, Andrea stared at Amelia brightly, as if she was investigating something interesting.
Amelia was a little nervous as she was being stared at. She soon thought of a person who could relieve this tension, so she asked, "Madam, how is Uncle Quartley doing recently?"
Andrea curled her lips. "He's in good health, but he's always talking about you from time to time. He also complained that you haven't kept in touch with him recently, wondering if you have lost contact with him."
"There's no such thing!" Amelia hurriedly denied, "It's just that I have been busy with work lately that I might have paid less attention to him."
