Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 134

Just as Amelia was about to say that she had no blood relationship with Grandpa Hopper and she was his granddaughter- in- law. Patrick's footsteps sounded.

When Amelia saw Patrick, she greeted him, "You're back."

Patrick passed between her and Davis with no expression, as if he was so indifferent.

Amelia touched her nose and said to Davis in embarrassment, "Don't mind. He's always like this."

Davis asked in a dull voice, "Is he Grandpa Hopper's grandson?"

Amelia said in surprise, "Do you know him?"

"I once saw a photograph of the whole Hopper family in Grandpa Hopper's study. He should be Patrick whom Grandpa Hopper always mentions. Am I right, Amelia?"

Amelia seemed to be lost in thought, "Do you mean that grandpa often mentions him?"

Davis laughed and said, "Yes, and he always complains that Patrick is unwilling to come back to see him."

Amelia was relieved. Grandpa Hopper's bark was really worse than his bite.

In the corridor upstairs, Patrick angrily stared at Amelia who was smiling happily as if he wanted to kill her.

After watching for a while, he returned to his room and slammed the door shut.

His loud noise immediately woke up Grandpa Hopper and Granny Hopper who were sleeping in the next room.

"What's wrong with that brat again!" Grandpa Hopper was angry because he was awoken by Patrick. He almost wanted to grab the cane at the bedside and beat Patrick.

"All right." Granny Hopper stopped Grandpa Hopper who got up from bed and said, "I'll go and have a look."

Granny Hopper got up and walked to the guest room. She knocked on the door twice, but Patrick opened it for a long time.

Granny Hopper thought that Patrick had fallen asleep and went downstairs without thinking too much.

In the room, Patrick thought that it was Amelia who knocked on the door, so he didn't open the door. It was too late to please him!

In the kitchen.

Davis put the washed red bayberries into Amelia's bowl. Eating red bayberries in summer could quench thirst. Those red bayberries looked good and delicious. Amelia couldn't help swallowing.

Noticing her small movements, Davis said enthusiastically, "Eat some."

Amelia restrained herself and said, "No, grandpa and grandma haven't got up yet."

Granny Hopper heard their voices and walked to them. Then she asked them who were looking at the red bayberries with their heads down, "Amelia, Davis, what are you doing?"

Hearing it, Amelia and Davis raised their heads. But their heads accidentally knocked against each other because they were too close to each other.

Davis wore a military hat, so his head didn't hurt much. But Amelia was so painful that her tears were rolling in her eyes.

"Amelia! I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..." Davis was so anxious that he was about to reached out and rub Amelia's forehead.

But Granny Hopper slapped his hand away angrily, "Don't touch Amelia! This is Patrick's wife!"

"Ah?" Davis was surprised. He pointed at Amelia and stammered, "She is..."

If Davis was smarter, he should have thought that Amelia was Patrick's wife. But Patrick looked so cold when he saw Amelia just now. He didn't look like Amelia's husband, but her creditor.
