Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1391

After Sissi pretended to sober up from her drunkenness, she could not help but reach out to hold Sawyer's hand. She was overwhelmed with excitement as she exclaimed agitatedly, "When did you come back home? What time is it now? Where had you been these days? Why I had not heard from you at all all this while?"

In face of her row of questions, Sawyer was not annoyed either. Instead of feeling like she was questioning him, he thought that it was her way of showing her concern. Sawyer's gaze softened. He placed his index finger vertically on his lips as a gesture of silence before he shushed, "The kid is here."

"What?" Sissi followed his gaze and that was when she finally noticed the small boy lying on the couch in opposite of her. In a trance, she murmured, "That's my child..."

At this moment, Sawyer successfully changed the subject matter of their conversation.

Sissi's gaze fell directly on Abner. However, in the next second, Abner turned around and had his back facing her.

Sissi's expression turned gloomy at the sight of this. She could not help turning around and whispered to Sawyer dejectedly, "Abner doesn't want to see me even during his sleep..."

"Nonsense." Sawyer comforted, "He was merely turning to another side. Don't overthink it." With that said, he helped her to the couch.

He then picked up the thermos flask on the coffee table and began filling a glass of water. He handed the glass to Sissi as he asked, "How have you been when I was away?"

Sissi took over the glass before she replied softly, "I have been eating on time every day.

I don't turn on the lights during sleep at night either. I remember all your instructions by heart."

"Good..." Sawyer took a pause before he continued to ask, "But, why have you been drinking?"

Sissi replied without a doubt, "That's because

I have been missing you."

Sawyer raised his eyebrow unnoticeably. Sissi had no idea what was on his mind at this moment. The feeling of uncertainty made her feel restlessly uneasy.

She could not overlook the fact that Sawyer was the only man who was ready to offer her the world especially after Patrick stopped protecting her. Therefore, she had to cling herself to Sawyer and Abner no matter what happened. Otherwise, she was going to be alone and untaken care of for the rest of her life.

At the thought of this, Sissi asked warily, "Sawyer, what's wrong? Are you mad at me?"

Sawyer replied, "I'm not mad. It's just that I'm worried of you. Don't you forget that you're still carrying a child inside with you.
