Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 727

After she counted with her fingers, it seemed that her last period was a month and a half ago...

At first, she thought it was because of the enormous pressure she was under lately. And with too much work paired with the irregular intake of meals, that pushed her period off-schedule. And because of that, Amelia did not pay much attention to it.

She kept believing in that theory right until when she vomited just a moment ago...

Only then did Amelia realise the severity of the problem!

Could she be... pregnant?

Amelia's heart thumped as she gawked at herself in the mirror.

Staring into her reflection's eyes, the both of them cried out simultaneously, "Gosh, am I a joke to you?"

At the same time, at Roxxon Corporation.

"Patrick, why didn't you come yesterday?"

Hearing the woman's sad complaint on the other side of the phone, Patrick raised his hand to rub at this forehead and replied slowly, "I had something urgent to deal with."

Hearing him, the whining voice became even more sorrowful, "Do you know that because of your refusal, I had no choice but to meet that scum? And he... he did that kind of sh*t to me again!" Patrick's eyes darkened. After a while, he continued to comfort her with a soft voice, "Don't worry. I'll handle this."

Her voice was filled with hope instantly. "How are you going to do that?"

"By making him crawl back to where he came from," replied Patrick.

She spiralled into a state of anxiety right away at the sound of that. "No way! What should I do if he tells my parents that I was the one who wanted the divorce and that I came back to Northville behind their backs?"

Patrick pondered for a moment before responding calmly, "Divorce isn't a thing to feel ashame of. I'll bring you back to your parents' house this weekend, and you'll explain everything that happened to them on your own initiative."
