Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1616

Knock, knock, knock.

Hobart brought Amelia to Maryanne's room and said to Maryanne, who stood at the window with her back facing them, "Maryanne, she's here."

Maryanne turned from the window to look at Amelia. She said to Hobart, "Hobart, can you give us a minute alone?"

Hobart replied worriedly, "Call me when you need me then."

"Okay." Maryanne nodded obediently.

Hobart turned and shot Amelia a warning look before he left.

Amelia stood in front of the door and stared at Maryanne with calm composure. "Can I come in?" Maryanne hummed affirmation without showing any emotion.

So, Amelia entered Maryanne's room.

Maryanne asked, "Are you here to parade? Or are you here to cry crocodile's tears?"

But Amelia only stared at Maryanne's hands and responded, "Maryanne, take off your gloves. Let me look at your hands."

Maryanne was shocked, but she asked back with sorrow, "You found out about it?"

"Hmm. Milton and Mr. Hopper told me everything.

I want to know how were your hands injured."

"Do you?" Maryanne flew into a rage. She took off her gloves in front of Amelia and revealed all of her scars to Amelia. "Don't you feel thrilled to see me like this?"

Amelia observed Maryanne's hands, and her expression darkened. Amelia sighed, "You've been injured so badly, and you're able to endure the pain even now. Maryanne, I'm impressed."

Amelia's words instantly cracked Maryanne's facade of feigned toughness. Maryanne choked a little before asking, "Amelia, do you think that... I... deserve to... suffer this much?"

Amelia sounded like she was relaying a piece of her own experience when she replied, "You just provoked someone you shouldn't have."

Maryanne then realized that she had asked a stupid question. "That's right. I must have been crazy to provoke you. You're the woman that they hold closest to their hearts. It's a pity that I understand this truth too late..."

"It's not too late." Amelia said firmly, "I think Milton had feelings for you." "He likes me? No...!" Maryanne's expression froze.

She got up from her chair and walked to Amelia's side. Then, Maryanne yelled enunciatively, "You're the one who he has feelings for!"
