After two seconds of silence, Granny Hopper said, "It's not appropriate."
Amelia was not sure what to say.
Patrick's smile deepened and he was about to say that since it wasn't appropriate, Amelia should stay and serve Granny Hopper, but Granny Hopper changed her words, "So I'm going to go with them and get into their lives."
Now Patrick stopped smiling.
Amelia was flabbergasted, then realized that Granny Hopper was supporting her, and she felt touched.
Patrick glared at Amelia, and after a moment he said, "Well, I'll..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Granny Hopper interrupted him, "Don't go, you've never been one for crowds anyway."
Patrick was instantly annoyed when Granny Hopper said that, but as angry as he was, he couldn't argue with his grandmother, so he reluctantly watched them leave!
Florence looked at Granny Hopper with admiration but concern, "Wow! Grandma, you were so awesome just now, but Patrick's face was so scary. Will we come back to stay later?"
Granny Hopper calmly said, "Don't worry about him, he'll be fine in a minute."
Ashley looked back reluctantly until they were no longer in sight of Patrick as they descended the stairs, and then she turned back to Andrew and said, "Uncle Patrick is so poor...".
Andrew reassured Ashley through Amelia, "It's okay, we'll make it up to Uncle Patrick later by packing a kids' meal."
Puff...
Amelia didn't want to laugh, but, "Kids' Meal"? Did they treat Patrick like a child their own age?
At this moment, upstairs, an irritated Patrick kicked the wall, leaving a deep footprint!
He was so sure that Amelia had heard the phone call that it felt like the most shameful secret of his heart was being spied on and he couldn't keep his cool!
He was desperate to grab Amelia by the shoulders and shake everything she had heard out of her head so that he would be the Patrick with no weaknesses again instead of the idiot who was still attached to his last relationship!
At Mcdonald's.
While waiting in line, Granny Hopper suddenly said to Amelia, "I'll go to the restroom first."
Amelia turned around and asked, "Granny, do you want me to come with you?"
Florence volunteered at this point, "No, Amelia, you need to watch the kids, I just have to go to the bathroom to fix my makeup."
"Okay, remember to call me later to ask for my seat number," Amelia said.
After ordering a few of the most popular set menus, Amelia's arm holding her plate high to prevent the two children following her from being pushed.
Ashley was very active, and when she saw that Mcdonald's was decorated like an amusement park, she played around with it.
Ashley accidentally bumped into a table behind her, and the woman in the seat with the Coke hit her hand and looked back to see who had hit her.
"I'm sorry, are you okay?" Amelia apologized quickly.
When they looked into each other's eyes, the woman who had been hit and Amelia were all stunned at the same time.
