Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1714

"Happy?" Gramps Hopper questioned, "Sawyer is in the police station. Do you think there is still happiness in the Home of Quartley? Instead, your appearance will bring them new hope."

Amelia was stunned before saying, "Gramps, I'm not all of that. I can't bring anything to the Home of Quartley, and the Home of Quartley doesn't need me to bring forth anything either. I have no money and no talents, so I can't let the Home of Quartley live a better life than now. On the contrary, I'll only bring trouble, so..."

Gramps Hopper did not like her self-denial. "Who said that you're not rich and talented? On the contrary, you're the most capable and responsible woman I have ever seen. As for the fortune, if the Home of Quartley recognizes you because of your wealth, I won't let them go through with it!"

Amelia was amused and moved at the same time. "Gramps, I know you're afraid that I'll get looked down on if I don't have a proper reputation. But it doesn't matter. I don't care. Just like what Florence said, having you guys with me is enough."

Gramps Hopper scowled and wanted to say something more.

But Amelia continued, "Gramps, I've been through many hardships. I don't think it's exaggerated to say that I've gone through enough for the rest of my life. Now, I've comprehended a truth about life, which is that true happiness comes from being able to stay with the people I love peacefully. The rest means nothing to me."

Gramps Hopper then sighed. In the end, he did not insist anymore.

To be honest, Gramps Hopper doted on Amelia from the bottom of his heart. At the thought that she, with her young age, was always someone's target because of some occasional misunderstanding, he could not help but want to fix her reputation.

Unfortunately, Amelia was unwilling to accept his suggestion, so he had to respect her decision.

"Okay, gramps." Patrick said firmly, "Amy needs some rest now. I'll send you guys off to the hospital entrance. Leave the rest to me here!"

Granny Hopper and the others were still reluctant to leave. However, when they saw the tired look on Amelia's face after the antipyretics, they knew that the medicine was taking effect. So, they left one by one, saying, "We'll see you tomorrow."

Only Alice had made it clear to Patrick that she wanted to stay here and take care of Amelia.

Patrick had no choice but to nod. After Patrick informed Amelia, he left the ward with Granny Hopper and the rest.

When only Amelia and Alice were left in the ward, Amelia asked with concern, "Aunt Alice, if you stay here to take care of me, what about Dad?"

Alice smiled softly and replied, "Don't worry. Your father has a doctor and nurse to take care of him. It's fine if I'm not there for a day. The most important thing for me now is to take good care of you and bring you to your father in good health. I believe he'll be elated to see you."

When it came to this, Amelia could not help but ask, "Aunt Alice, Dad was unwilling to do rehabilitation because of me?"

Alice's voice sank. "Yes, what happened between you and Patrick at the wedding impacted him tremendously."

Amelia then followed up in anxiety, "Didn't you tell him that the woman who assassinated Mr. Hopper wasn't me?"

"I did. But it was worse because it meant that you could be killed, or you might not be able to come back every again."

Amelia fell silent for a while before she said, "Aunt Alice, do you have the doctor's number? I want Dad to listen to my voice and tell him that I'm safe."

"Yes! Yes! Why didn't I think of that? I'm so dumb!"

Alice muttered with shame as she took out her phone from her leather purse. After she dialled George's attending doctor number, she handed the phone to Amelia.
