Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 928

Amelia shrank her feet and said, "Savannah, I am not used to being served since I was young. So, please go easy on me."

Seeing Amelia replied so earnestly, Savannah could not help but be curious, "Ms. Ramsay is such a noble lady. Didn't your husband arrange some personal servants for you?"

Amelia was stunned for a moment. "Huh? Are you referring to Patrick?"

Savannah nodded. "Exactly."

Amelia scratched her temples and said, "We used to have a butler, but eventually..."

Stunned, she directly omitted the unpleasant part and said, "He resigned because he wanted to get married. We have not hired anyone else to serve us ever since."

"Well..." Savannah sympathetically looked at Amelia and euphemistically said, "It seems that Mr. Patrick is one who isn't extravagant."

Amelia smiled dryly. She thought that Savannah was just being polite. A man who was willing to buy a luxury apartment for his teacher definitely did not deserve to be described as 'not extravagant'.

At the end of the day, it was just Patrick not pampering Amelia!

Since Abner was asleep, Savannah and Amelia seized the chance and started to chat softly.

Amelia got to know about Savannah's past. Savannah had been working with Ryan since she was young.

Later, she married a gardener working with Ryan and gave birth to a daughter and a son.

But according to Savannah herself, when her eldest daughter was very young, she once took her out to play. In an unguarded moment, her eldest daughter was taken away and had not heard from her since then.

After that, Savannah gave birth to a son. She did not expect that her little son would have a car accident in his second grade of primary school. He had amputated his shanks, and could only spend the rest of his life in bed and wheelchair.

As for Savannah's husband, the gardener died of liver cancer twenty years ago.

In general, Savannah's life was a tragedy.

It was not until Abner's appearance that brought her hope to her life!

For the sake of Abner, she quit her job at Ryan's place without hesitation and came to work at the

Streams Villa.

As for her crippled son, she brought him along with her. Sawyer settled him down at his private hospital for rehabilitation. That was also the place where Abner's leg injury was treated last time.

After listening to these affairs,

Amelia comforted Savannah out of sympathy.

Unexpectedly, Savannah immediately said, "Fortunately, I've been accompanied by Abner all the time. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for me to live in this world."

Momentarily stunned, Amelia said, "That shouldn't be. What about your son?"

It was really strange why Savannah gave her the feeling that only Abner was the most important person in her life.

Even upon mentioning her elder daughter who was abducted, Savannah did not show such strong feelings which she had towards Abner. Instead, she only touched on it lightly. Was it because the time gap was too long that the feelings had faded away?

Amelia thought that it would only make sense in this way.

Savannah gently wiped the tear in her eyes. After recovering as soon as possible, she said to Amelia, "Sorry Ms. Ramsay, I was being frivolous. You give a friendly impression that I seem to have talked too much unconsciously. It's about time. I'll go and see how the kitchen is doing. When it's ready, I'll come and inform you and Abner."

Amelia smiled and replied, "Not a big deal."

She got up and closed the door for Savannah. The moment Amelia turned back, she heard her cell phone ringing in her bag.

She walked over quickly, picked up and unzipped her bag, took out her cell phone, and quickly pressed the answer button...

"Hello?" Right after Amelia uttered, she heard a cheerful voice coming from the other end of the phone. "Aunt Amelia! Where are you now?"

Amelia's eyes widened and reflexively called out her name, "Ashley?!"

Ashley replied happily, "It's me! That's so smart of Aunt Amelia! Let me give you a smooch!"

Amelia had a bad feeling. She smiled dryly and said, "Ashley, why did you call me?"

"Let me tell you..." Word by word, there came Ashley's voice that was as sweet as cotton candy. "It's my daddy's birthday. Everyone is here. Uncle is here, little aunt is here, grandpa and grandma are here, and so are many of daddy's friends. Only you who is yet to arrive... Daddy wants

me to ask you, is it that his birthday isn't important to you so you're not coming?"

The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. She believed that this was definitely not Owen's words, because Owen was not such an aggressive person. It was probably Patrick who was standing beside Ashley and wanted Ashley to act as his messenger.

Thinking of this, Amelia felt that she was not as guilty as she was at the beginning. She replied softly, "Sorry, Ashley. It's not that I don't care about your father's birthday, it's because I have something very important to deal with now. If I can't handle it well, my life will become very tough. Can Ashely bear to see me living a hard life like a beggar?"

Ashley's side became silent. Amelia heard rustle coming over, which was supposed to be Ashley's discussion with her 'strategist'!

Her eyes could not help but turn cold. Did Patrick think that he could summon her back in the name of the two little babies she loved the most?

"I'm afraid that his wish will not come true this time!" thought Amelia.

A moment later, Ashley said with a pitiful voice, "Aunt Amelia, your husband is so rich that he must be reluctant to let you be a beggar. Just come over! Please!"

Amelia said with great care, "Ashley, someone is calling me. I'll hang up for now. When I'm done here, I'll personally visit your father to greet him a happy birthday. See you."

Amelia then ended the call firmly. Deep in her heart, she felt sorry to Ashley who was innocent.

Meanwhile, at Owen's home.

Patrick and Ashley stood side by side in the balcony. This place was a little quieter.

When Ashley put down the mobile phone that was bigger and longer than her palm, the man next to her immediately asked, "How was it?"

Ashley who was disappointed frowned and said, "I failed, Aunt Amelia insisted not to come."

Patrick's heart sank. "Did you do your best in pleading her?"

Ashley nodded continuously. Her voice was soft and lovely, "Of course I did. Uncle, aren't you standing right next to me? Didn't you see all my effort? Why are you asking when you know what's going on? Aunt Amelia is just too busy to come over!"
