Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 440

Amelia's smile hadn't disappeared ever since she saw these two energetic kids. She found it both amusing and surprising especially when hearing Ashley's announcement that Rick was a pig instead of a dog. Nora had been watching them having fun. Seeing that they've been outside for quite a while, she couldn't help but urge them, "Patrick, Amelia, let's hurry inside. Although it's not snowing, the freezing air out here might bring on a cold."

"Alright!" Amelia answered from a distance. She held Andrew with one hand and grabbed tightly the rope connected to the dog with the other hand. After giving Patrick a look, she walked carefully with others over the snow to the inner courtyard.

The courtyard was different from the cold and moist outside. The domestic servants had been cleaning it and made sure there was no snow here. Noting that the ground was not slippery, Patrick put down Ashley, leaving her to run to Amelia and play with the dog.

Owen, who was a few steps behind, asked abruptly, "What do you think about father's matter?"

Patrick looked far away as he asked absentmindedly, "Think about what?"

Owen sighed. "Forgive him. No one could guarantee that they themselves would never make a mistake."

Patrick said in a deep voice, "But he made mistakes again and again."

Owen reached out to pat his brother's stiff shoulders. "Mom couldn't be ruled out as one of the causes of Dad's mistakes. She has really changed a lot recently and is no longer the woman he could tell everything to."

Patrick looked back at him. "Owen, what about you? Can you forgive him?"
