Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 861

"So, | think that Patrick can take the initiative to buy Huxton and Dr. Jagger a house near the Land of Fragrance

as a gift for them."

Before Owen could finish his sentence, Huxton jumped and said, "Master Owen, there's no need to dothat!"

"Actually, it sounds right for me," Patrick said calmly.

"Sir?" Huxton was stunned. This was the first sentence that Patrick had said to him since he entered the house.

Patrick looked at him seriously and said, "You've been working forfor more than ten years. You've been

helpingall these years. Now that you're getting married, | should buy you a gift." Huxton then said in a clear

and opened mannered. "I'm willing to work for sir and | don't need any payback!"

Patrick said lightly, "For you, it is something that you don't need but for Dr. Jagger, it means that she wouldn't

have a personal space to live in, are you sure you want to see her suffer?" For a moment, Huxton was in a lost

for words.

Amelia and Owen looked at each other. What Patrick said was harsh but it was also the truth.

Amelia began to reflect on her own action, was it a right choice to insist on wanting Huxton back. Because while

she was eager to keep Huxton by her side, she was neglecting Scarlett's feelings. Her thoughts and way of doing

things seemed to be...selfish.

If Huxton was allowed to stay on the Land of Fragrance, he would definitely be glad to do so. But what about

Scarlett? Would she be willing to seek shelter under someone else's roof? Even if the Land of Fragrance was huge

that if they purposely avoided each other, it was possible for them to not meet each other for the whole day.

So what?

This was still Patrick's house after all.

What rights did Amelia had for her to request for Scarlett to stay back and be a maid in the Land of Fragrance?

Amelia bit her lips to show she was unhappy with the suggestion provided.

Seeing that something wrong with her. Huxton and Scarlett knew that she was unsatisfied with Patrick's

suggestion.

But from Owen's point of view, he knew that she had

cto her senses.

While smiling, Owen continued on, "That's right, Huxton. You've been by my brother's side for so long. It's just a

house, it totally a suitable gift for you."

Although Scarlett did not say anything, her eyes were shining brightly. They were all human, how could anyone

turn down such an offer?

Even Amelia could not help but advise Huxton, "You should just agree and accept this gift."

Patrick was overjoyed when he heard what Amelia said.

Sure enough, everything was as Owen had promised. As long Patrick mentioned that Huxton and Scarlett were

getting married, he could then reasonably arrange a place for Huxton and Scarlett to stay. According to Amelia's

personality, she would not ignore Scarlett's feeling at all.

Huxton rwas used to following a decision instead of making one. However, when he wanted to take the initiative,

almost everyone was trying to persuade him to take the gift.

Patrick then ended the conversation, "Well, that's a deal then! The new house would be located near the Land of

Fragrance. So that it will be more convenient for Dr. Jagger to cback and forth."

Scarlett and Huxton looked at each other, as Huxton saw Scarlett winking at him with great enthusiasm. A touch

of tenderness appeared on Huxton's face. He turned back and said to Patrick, "Thank you, sir. I'l take the gift!"

Patrick stretched out his hand with relief and patted on Huxton's shoulder. "After you get married, | will ask my

brother to arrange a job for you. You have learnt so many things these few years, it would be a waste for you to

be a servant here."

"Mr. Patrick!" Hearing this, Scarlett, who was sitting beside Huxton becnervous. She clung to Huxton's

forearm and asked, "Are you planning to let Huxton join the police?"

This time, it was Owen who answered the question. "Scarlett, although Huxton has good skills, excellent aim and

a strong body, the police force isn't recruiting him immediately. He would need to graduate from the training

school first. | reluctantly opened the back door for him because he is my brother's confidant. He will start from

the bottom and if he helps us solve a case in the future, we will then give him a raise. Scarlett, if you are afraid

that he will put himself in danger, then forget it. | won't force you."

Scarlett was trying to persuade Huxton to give up but then she was one step slower than Huxton, "Sure! Thank

you for givingthis opportunity! | will definitely not let you down."

Scarlett's eyes widened as she was still worried about this choice.

However, Amelia thought that it was fine. After all, the crrate in Northville was not high. Moreover, Huxton

had just joined the police force, not the special forces. It was unlikely that he would be involved in those high-risk

cases.

Owen himself had done sresearch and consideration before introducing this job to Huxton himself.

Huxton was a kind and honest man. He was upright, loyal and able to bear through hard times. However, he too

had a weakness which was being overly loyal. It meant that he was not cunning enough and another major

problem he faced was he was not well educated.

If such a person was to follow Patrick in the business world, he would always be a right-hand man. But if he was

allowed to work in the police station, he might grow and beca national hero.

When Scarlett and Huxton took their leave, Amelia suddenly realized that The Hopper Family brothers used just

one night to deal with Huxton's marriage, housing and future development problem. What uncanny speed was

this!

Not to mention the solution that they gave made her felt like they have been through sdeep consideration

before voicing it out.

They provided specific advice in an orderly way. She could tell that Scarlett was not threatened or forced by her

expression. As for Huxton he personally accepted Owen's offer too.

When she saw the eagerness in Huxton's eyes, she knew that she had completely lost all the reasons to ask him

to stay.

At this moment, Patrick took Huxton to the other side by the nof sending off his guests. When Scarlett saw

that they were both discussing something, she consciously stepped aside.

In the small garden, the moon cast a shadow of everything under it, Patrick and Huxton then stood bleakly in the

garden.

Patrick looked at Huxton and said with a serious expression, "Huxton, please don't blme. | introduced you to

my brother for the sake of your future. Isn't it better to be a police rather than a butler?" Huxton thought to

himself, "What you say is too absurd. Only a fool would believe what you said."

But he was willing to be the fool, "Well! You don't have to explain it sir. | know it all!"

Patrick's eyes sparkled. "I'm glad you understand!

Amelia and | will be attending your wedding on the 3rd of next month!"

Huxton's gaze turned sharp. "Sir, have you forgotten? We won't be holding a wedding ceremony at the moment.

We'll just get our marriage certificate.”

Patrick was shocked. "What did you say?"

Huxton said helplessly, "Didn't you and Mr. Owen urge us to be quick on this issue? So we decided to get the

certificate first so that you can rest assured and madam would give up on wantingback at the house. We'll

select a date and plan for our banquet later after we had our marriage registered..."
