Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 962

Amelia explained in time, "If it were not for Nora who warned them not to leave the room until they finish their homework, I guess they are more than happy to come downstairs looking for you."

This time Patrick did not know what to say.

Sensing his embarrassment, Amelia had not continued to say anything else out of kindness.

She invited him again, "Come upstairs with me. Ashley said that she is not motivated to study without you."

"I don't have to be responsible for her grades!" Sulking, Patrick said.

Amelia looked at him and said, "Are you sure? You're also the one who complained that I deprive you of your privilege to concern their study, aren't you?"

Patrick was completely speechless.

He thought of taking the opportunity to give Amelia a lesson so that she would not simply show face at him. However, it turned out that this was completely useless for her.

Her face was saying "It is totally fine if you are not coming". He was stuck in an embarrassing dilemma.

But neither could he bear to go extremely harsh on her nor ignore her completely.

Eventually, Patrick had chosen to follow Amelia upstairs.

This time, Amelia did not knock on the door. Instead, she reached out to the doorknob right away.

Glancing up, she called out to the kids who were waiting earnestly near the study table, "Tada! Look! Who's here!'

"Uncle Pattrick!" Ashley immediately jumped on his feet as if she was meeting her idol.

Patrick was not moved by her enthusiasm. He reminded her solemnly, "Ashley, I remember that we had just met last night."

Ashley immediately stopped cheering. With her expression earnest, she said, "Uncle, don't you know that seconds feel like hours when I'm not with you?"

Upon saying this, she threw herself in direction of Patrick enthusiastically.

Patrick was not moved at all. He shoved her away ruthlessly.

Ashley did not seem angry at all even if Patrick had made it clear that he did not want to hug her. Instead, she chuckled as if she thought that Patrick was playing hide and seek with her. Again, she threw herself into him.

Over time, Patrick either dodged away from her attack or he shoved her away. Amelia began to feel sorry for Ashley, "Patrick, why not you just hug her."

Not only she saw Ashley was covering in sweat, she had noticed that the kid had begun panting. Amelia felt that there was a need for her to say something.

She could tell that Ashley would not be able to focus on her homework later if she continued to play with him.

Patrick stunned for a while upon hearing what Amelia had said.

It was also right at this time that Ashley had grabbed the opportunity and hug his thigh. She exclaimed in excitement, "I catch you! Finally, I catch you! I win this time!"

Patrick could not bother of his niece right this moment. Instead, he squinted at Amelia and sneered coldly, "I never know that you're such a generous person."

"Generous? What does he mean?"

Amelia was puzzled. However, she did not want to ravel herself with this confusion.

After all, Patrick's mood was unpredictable. She did not want to seek any more problems for herself.

She glanced at Ashley who was overwhelmed with excitement, "Ashley, now that you've seen your uncle. Aren't you supposed to return to your seat and solve your mathematic questions?"

"Huh?" Ashley looked up with her face reddened. It took her a while to respond to Amelia, "Amelia, can I play for a while more?"
