Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1685

"No need..." Maryanne subconsciously rejected.

At the critical moment, Sierra stood up. "Maryanne, just do Aunt a favor and let Milton take you to the door, okay?"

Maryanne had no choice but to nod and quickly walk in front after holding her shoulder bag.

While Milton gave a thumbs up to Sierra behind and then caught up with Maryanne.

Maryanne felt awkward and nervous as he stared at her all the way. For several times, she wanted to ask him to stay away from her. But as she looked up, she found that she was almost at the door. So she thought it would be better to quickly put on her shoes and leave.

When she supported herself on the wall with one hand and adjusted her shoelace with the other, she suddenly slipped a little as she was standing unsteadily...

Just as she was about to make a fool of herself, Milton reached out and caught her in time.

At the moment, Maryanne's awkwardness was of same value as Milton's happiness.

He had even wanted to cheer out loud when he

saw Maryanne slip by accident.

Meanwhile, he held her waist that had become thinner and stared at her face closely. He felt that the missing part of his heart was slowly filled up.

After Maryanne recovered, she immediately reached out and pushed him. However, he had held her too tightly, so she had to say, "You can let me go now." Milton did not let her go, but held her even tighter instead.

His action finally provoked her anger. "Are you a rogue or deaf? Didn't you hear that I asked you to let me go?!"

"Maryanne..." He lowered his head and looked into her eyes, which were glaring out of anger. He said pitifully and affectionately, "Are you still not willing to forgive me at all?"

Such a close distance made Maryanne's heart race a little. But she remained expressionless as she chided, "Stop talking to me. I'm not that familiar with you. Let me go!"

"No." Milton was like a child who failed to receive candy on Halloween. He pestered, "You sent yourself to me. Why can't I hold you?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Maryanne quickly defended. "I'm here to see Aunt Sierra. It has nothing to do with you! If you don't believe me, you can ask Aunt Sierra whether I have called her in advance. I came only after confirming that you're not here!" Unexpectedly, Milton gave an irrelevant reply, "Maryanne, you've lost weight."

Maryanne was silent for a moment.

"Is it because you missed me too much?"

Maryanne became speechless.

"In fact, I have lost weight as well. If you don't believe me, you can give it a touch."

As his voice fell, Milton directly held Maryanne's right hand and put it on his face.

Through her glove, Maryanne could feel the warmth and touch of his skin. It was once an unreachable wish of hers, as well as a pity that she had hardly refrained herself to get close to...

Wait, what was she thinking about?!

Just as Maryanne was in a hurry to break free of his grip, Milton mightily grabbed her hand and went all the way to his waist. "I've been thinner here too. The curve on my waist wasn't this deep in the past."

"Enough!" She gritted her teeth and stared at him, while still insisted on
