Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 278

Granny Hopper said sourly, "Is it really because of you or others?"

Everyone else knew that Granny Hopper was blaming Eve. And she was not satisfied that Howard was the one to bear the responsibility.

A great grievance appeared on Eve's face, "Mom, I don't dare to be late on such an important day. It was because of Howard."

Howard reprimanded Eve and said, "Well, stop it. No need to bother mom."

Eve felt wronged but couldn't say a word in front of the strict Granny Hopper.

During the banquet, two kids' presences made the atmosphere lively. As usual, Ashley enjoyed calling Patrick "handsome uncle" in his arms, while Andrew, sitting in the middle of Nora and Owen, was a bit shy. He peeked at Amelia on the opposite side from time to time.

Amelia was a little confused by Nora's curious look. She couldn't help asking, "Andrew, why are you staring at me all the time? Is there something strange on my face?"

Andrew was caught on the spot. With his face turning red, he hurried to pick up the food in the bowl.

"Auntie," Ashley, who was sitting on Patrick's lap, twisted his butt to attract Amelia's attention, "You will make my brother shy if staring at him."

So it was Amelia's fault?

Nora put down the cup and explained it softly to Amelia, "Here's the thing. Didn't you take an advertisement for the company recently? He asked me for your photos every day. I told him to talk to you directly, but I didn't expect him to be so shy."

Seeing that Andrew lowered his head with Nora's words, Amelia struggled to hold back her laughter and said, "Andrew, can we take a photo together later?"

"Really?" Andrew suddenly raised his delicate face like a little dog tempted by bones, making the adults laugh.

Ashley, holding her belly, laughed and said, "You're so shy, Andrew!"

"You don't have the right to say anything about me!" He retorted angrily.

"Wow, hahaha, at least I'm braver than you. I know how to date with the Prince Charming!" Ashley continued to laugh at him.

Noticing that Andrew's face was turning extreme red, Patrick poked Ashley's round belly slightly with his slender fingers and asked, "You feel alright after laughing so hard?"

When it came to Patrick, Ashley became obedient, "No, it hurts... Please rub it."

A great smile passed over Owen's normally serious face after seeing it, "Patrick, Amelia, my two kids like you couple very much."

Amelia lauded from the bottom of her heart, "It's because they are too lovely. We'd love to play with them."

Owen and Nora made an eye contact, "Really?"

Amelia said firmly, "Yes!"

"If so, why not help us take care of the kids for several days?" Nora sounded annoyed and amused, both at once.

"Ah? This happened so fast, right?" Amelia was stunned.

Nora turned to look at her apologetically and said, "So it's not convenient for you? It seems that... I'm too reckless."

"No..." Amelia hurriedly explained, "It's me who was too surprised. Did something happen?

Owen said slowly, "Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. I've asked for leave to return to Northville in order to spend some time with Nora. However, we can't rest assured if we leave the children to others, so we want to ask you and Patrick for help."
