Howard stated, "There's no need. You can convey the message to him later after I tell you."

Amelia had to pause her action of removing the handsfree and replied, "Alright, dad. You can say it now."

Despite sounding approachable, Amelia could tell from this tone that it was a plea that was not supposed to be turned down, "Please come back home for dinner tomorrow. Your grandparents are going to arrive at Northville by flight tomorrow morning..."

There was a momentary silence.

"What?" Amelia could not help feeling nervous at this news.

Howard continued, "Granny specified that she wanted to meet you in person. Besides, she also wanted to know how are you two doing these days. I had already assured her that both of you are getting along well. As for whether she is going to believe my words or not, it all depends on the performance of you tomorrow night." Upon hearing this, Amelia immediately fell into a dilemma.

To deal with Granny Hopper was not quite a big problem for Amelia. After all, she was quite close with Granny Hopper. However, most importantly, Gramps Hopper was going to be there too!

Judging from his irascible temper, it was not unusual for Gramps Hopper to throw a tantrum and begin hitting others with his walking stick!

As for Patrick, there was needless to say!

Tracing back to previous year during their visit to Gramps Hopper in Dallas, Patrick and Gramps Hopper went into a heated argument. Consequently, Patrick had been beaten up terribly for his hassle. Even Granny Hopper could not help feeling sympathetic towards Patrick.

As for Howard.

As a son for Gramps Hopper and a father for Patrick, Howard was supposed to be a mediator between the grandfather and grandson.

However, there was no doubt that his own infidelity as well as his imprisonment of Sissi had completely despised Patrick.

Amelia could not bring herself to imagine what was going to happen when the three men in The Hopper Family finally gathered around.

Meanwhile, she had no reason not to be present.

At the thought of this, a surge of sorrow began to

creep on her.

"Amelia, did you hear what I said?" Not long after, Howard began to speak again from the other end of the call.

Amelia tried to gather herself from the thought. She replied, "Yeah, I heard you, dad."

Howard sounded pleased at her reply, "Alright. Please let Patrick know and ask him to pick you up on time tomorrow after work."

"Sure..." Amelia replied tensely.
