Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Patrick immediately walked up to Amelia and hugged her once Owen left. Then, he asked gloomily, "Mrs. Hopper, why did you invite Owen?"

Amelia leaned in his arms and asked with a smile, "Are you jealous because of that?"

Before this, Patrick would have sneered and said nothing. Then, the conversation would have ended.

Surprisingly, Patrick admitted affirmatively, "Yes, I'm jealous! My mood is so sour that it feels like I'm drowning in vinegar..."

Amelia embraced him with a broader smile when she heard him. It was not easy for Patrick to speak his mind as he used to be poor at expressing himself.

After that, Amelia comforted Patrick gently, "Don't be like this. Owen has taken a great risk to release Sawyer. We should at least invite him over for a meal, right?"

"Since you've made up your mind, my opinion doesn't matter," replied Patrick gloomily. "Also, Sawyer is the one who is at Owen's mercy, so he should be the one to treat Owen a meal. That's none of our business." "Ah, stop splitting hairs! Owen has worked so hard to protect our safety. The most important thing is that he's our family, isn't he? What's wrong with inviting him over for a meal? You're so petty!" Amelia exclaimed.

Before this, Patrick would have kissed Amelia hard and leave her breathless when she whined about him.

However, he grinned instead. He then asked excitedly, "What did you just say?"

Amelia raised her eyebrows and thought, "What's wrong with this man today? Why is he so happy when I'm complaining about him?"

"I said you're petty!"

"No. Not that sentence!"

"That Owen has worked hard to protect us?"

"No, no!"

"That... Owen is our family?"

"Yes!" Patrick lifted Amelia in the air with a swoop and spun her around. Then, he lowered his head and gave her a peck on the cheek. "Mrs. Hopper, did you just promise to re-marry me?" Patrick asked.

"What?" Amelia was puzzled.

"Didn't you say Owen is our family?" Patrick emphasized the word 'our' before he continued, "Don't forget that we're divorced, so technically, you have nothing to do with Owen! You should call him 'Officer Hopper' instead of 'Owen', unless you're willing to marry me again!"

Amelia's face blushed when she understood what Patrick was trying to say. "Don't forget that your grandfather has forced me to be his granddaughter. If that's the case, your grandfather is my grandfather, so your eldest brother is my eldest brother too. So, there's nothing wrong for me to say that Owen is our family," she retorted.
