Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)
Chapter 534

Just as Dr. Scarlett's mind was about to wander off, Amelia had invited her to take a seat.

Dr. Scarlett sat down on the edge of the sofa under great pressure.

As the host, Amelia wanted to make a cup of tea for Dr. Scarlett when the pot and cup in her hands were suddenly taken away by a man in black from behind the sofa.

The man worked so quickly that Amelia was taken by surprise. When she finally snapped from the reverie, the pot had been placed back in its original position and the cup of tea was in Dr. Scarlett's hand. The two women stared at the cup, their eyes wide open. Was the man a human or a ghost? How could he be so fast?

After a long pause, Dr. Scarlett asked in a weak voice, "Excuse me, may I ask... Who are these people?"

Amelia used Patrick's words and said, "Oh, they're all bodyguards of the house."

Dr. Scarlett could easily make out more than a dozen men there...

She gave a hollow laugh and said, "That's a lot of bodyguards, isn't it?"

It was showing how unsafe this home was! Was it too late for her to resign now?

Sensing Dr. Scarlett's fear, Amelia reassured her hurriedly, "You don't have to be afraid. It's very safe here. With them here, even a fly can't get in!"

"Then... can any fly get out?" Dr. Scarlett asked, hinting a question within another question.

Amelia was confused for a while and then burst out laughing. "Dr. Scarlett, they're really not kidnappers. You can come and go whenever you like!"

Dr. Scarlett patted her chest, relaxed, and expressed, "That's good!"

After a while, Dr. Scarlett, who had calmed down, found her previous thoughts hilarious. "What was I thinking? How could someone with a status such as Mr. Patrick's be a kidnapper?"

At this moment, a drawl sounded from behind them. "I am, indeed, a kidnapper." It was just that he had always had only one target.

At this, Amelia and Dr. Scarlett turned back simultaneously.

When they saw Patrick, Amelia curled her lips in disgust while Dr. Scarlett looked at him with fascination as if she was looking at a god.

No matter how many times she had seen this man, she was blown away by him within seconds every time.

"If he was the kidnapper, it would be pretty good to be kidnapped," Dr. Scarlett thought.

After washing up, Patrick had changed into formal wear and casually sat down on the sofa where Amelia was. Then, as if no one else was present, he brushed aside the hair on her cheek, gently pinched her earlobe, and asked, "What are you guys talking about?"

Amelia swatted his hand away, which was only stirring up trouble, and grumbled, "I asked Dr. Scarlett for help, saying that you've kidnapped me and asked her to call the police as soon as possible!" "Isn't it some kind of a blessing to be kidnapped by me?" Patrick glanced at Dr. Scarlett and smiled.

"Dr. Scarlett, if you were Amelia, would you be willing to be kidnapped by me?"

"Yes, yes! I'm very willing!" Dr. Scarlett's soul left her body from seeing Patrick's smile. Let alone being kidnapped, if he had asked her to die, she might agree to it!

Patrick turned back around and slowly said to Amelia, "Did you hearthat? Any normal woman would feel the same way as Dr. Scarlett."

Amelia clicked her tongue and said. "What's the big deal about he using his look to seduce others?" thought Amelia. She turned back to Dr. Scarlett and cleared her throat, "Dr. Scarlett, has my medical examination report come out yet?"

Scarlett covered her cheeks, which were still fuming hot, and said, "It's out. I'll show you guys right away."

Dr. Scarlett unzipped the leather bag that sat on her knees and retrieved a medical report.

Patrick was somewhat absent-minded at first but became serious at once. "What does the report say?"

Dr. Scarlett was unconsciously infected by his tone. "Your wife is very healthy. Except for being mildly malnourished and her weak stomach condition, there's nothing else. Don't worry, Mr. Patrick." Patrick repeated with an impassive face, "Mildly malnourished and the weak stomach condition?" How could he rest assured?

Dr. Scarlett explained, "A lot of people have the problem of suboptimal health now. Being slightly undernourished is considered a very light problem."

Patrick was still tense. "What about her stomach?"

"I may need to ask your wife about this."

Dr. Scarlett looked at Amelia and said, "Mrs. Hopper, are you not attentive to your meal patterns? For

example, you often eat one meal and forgo the next meal?"

Under Patrick's cold gaze, Amelia bit the bullet and said, "That was what happened before. When I was still at work, I used to be too busy to have proper and regular meals."

Dr. Scarlett nodded. "Exactly! If the three meals are consumed irregularly, the probability of getting stomach problems will naturally increase."

Patrick demanded, "I want you to fix her!"

"Of course, there's not a problem," Dr. Scarlett responded. Then she added, "Once your stomach is better, the nutrients you eat will be absorbed more easily. This way, Mrs. Hopper's mild malnutrition can be resolved as well."

Amelia praised her genuinely, "Dr. Scarlett, you are amazing."

"You flattered me!"

Before Dr. Scarlett had time to be proud of herself, Patrick said airily, "I don't need you to tell me what's on the paper. What I want to see is your case proposal!"

Dr. Scarlett quickly lowered her head and took out an iPad from her bag. She displayed the case document in front of Patrick and said, "Given that your wife's problems are minor, I intend to use diet therapy to nurse her stomach first, only then strengthen it. This is my carefully curated diet plan for both of you. Please have a look."

Just when Amelia thought that Patrick would choose not to look at it, or just barely skim it, he actually got closer and inspected it thoroughly with extra attention.

After a while, Amelia could not help but ask, "Can you understand the doctor's prescription?"

Patrick gave her a sidelong glance. "You think everyone is as ignorant as you?"

Amelia was displeased and said, "Yea, you're not a country bumpkin, then tell me what's the effect of these foods!"

Patrick moved the iPad to Amelia, pointed at the word ox tripe', and said, "Look at this. It's especially good for the stomach."

With that, his face was filled with the pride that was anticipating praise.

Amelia had enough of his shamelessness, and then she added, "I thought you were any more knowledgeable! It turns out that Doctor Scarlett had listed out the functions of these foods!"

Patrick answered calmly, "Even if she didn't list it out, I know what they do either way. Do you know, country bumpkin?"

Amelia said through her teeth, "Of course I know!" "Alright then," Patrick looked down at the menu.

A few seconds later, he covered the line that went after the word 'walnuts'. He raised his attention to Amelia and asked, "What is its purpose?"

"It's good for the stomach!" Amelia blurted out. She felt that all the ingredients on this menu must have such function.
