"I remember you just started your business yesterday." Amelia exposed the other's bad lie ruthlessly. "The chihuahua is a stray dog. I saw this poor soul on the street, so I brought it home for treatment."

The young doctor was afraid that Amelia would refuse to believe it, he immediately took out his phone from his white coat, clicked on one of the galleries and shown her, "Look at this photo. Don't you think that it looks better now?"

Sorry, please forgive her that she was not able to differentiate if a dog was looking well.

But anyway, Amelia had half-believed his words as this person must have some capabilities in order to open a pet store. "Well, you see. How about I just stay here? Don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't believe in your medical skills, it's just that I don't want to leave the dog alone, seeing that it had been hurt so badly."

"It seems like you are a dog lover too." The young doctor took off his white gloves and solemnly held out his hand to Amelia. "Let me introduce myself. I am Fabian Lawson. Before I became a veterinarian, I have been a volunteer from a pet association."

Now, Amelia was certain that he was not a liar. She politely raised her hand and shook his hand. "My last name is Ramsay. Nice to meet you."

"Humph." In the next second, a strange nasal sound could be heard but Amelia did not react at all.

Patrick, who was unwilling to be ignored by Amelia, glared at Fabian with full of anger. Fabian immediately let go of Amelia's hand with an innocent expression shown on his face as soon as he felt the fierce and intense stare from him.

"Mrs. Hopper, come home with me." Patrick turned to grab Amelia's wrist and forcefully took her out from the veterinary clinic.

When they were about to reach their car, Amelia noticed there was no one around them and quickly said, "Patrick, let go of my hand. Let's talk!"

Patrick turned back to look at her. He did not let go of her hand despite stopping to walk. "What do you want to talk?"

Amelia said slowly, "I said I wanted to stay here to treat Rick. It's not a joke. I hope you will respect my thought." Patrick said angrily, "Do you know what day today is?"

"I know. It's one of a few days in a year when people would be joyful but I didn't feel the slightest joy.

Instead, I felt that my heart was always on tenterhooks."

Pursing her lips, Amelia felt a subconscious fear, and then she blurted out towards this man who she trusted the most. "Rick's internal organs are injured, and if this happened on a human, it would similarly be seriously injured! I might lose him any time, and only by looking at him here can my heart feels peace."

Patrick admitted that what she said was reasonable, but he was also worried about leaving her here. But since he was not at home On Christmas day, he felt something was missing.

Moreover, he had announced the relationship between them to the public. Maybe his relatives were all on their way here. If they went to the Hopper Family only to replace out that Amelia and he was not there, and the reason was to send a dog to the hospital for treatment, what would they think?

Patrick decided to focus on the overall situation and said, "Amelia, I told you to go home first!"

Amelia was caught in a dilemma.

Knowing that she was feeling bad, Patrick tried to persuade her to go home in a gentle way, "Are you still mad with me?"

Amelia took a look at him and softened her attitude. "I'm not angry with you. I'm angry with myself! If I weren't so weak, I could have asked your mother for an explanation. But I didn't. I could only be like a poor worm and come to the veterinarian with the dying Rick!"

She added, "To tell the truth, even if Eve used to scold and beat me, I can still endure it. But this time, she treats Rick like that and I really can't control my hatred towards her!"

"Amelia, Eve's also your mother! You can't hate her, you hear me!"

At this moment, Patrick was worried that Amelia would transfer her hatred for Eve towards him.

Amelia was stubborn and said, "My mom is never like a cruel tyrant."

Patrick's felt like something hit his chest. But Amelia's reaction to what had happened today was reasonable. He suppressed his anger and said: "I'll ask you again, will you go back with me?" "What if I don't go back?" Amelia said coldly.

Patrick said in a voice that was colder than hers, "Then I don't mind bringing you back in a way that you wouldn't like."

Amelia scolded, "You have no sympathy, whether Rick can be saved or not is already an issue, but you still want me to leave Rick alone in an unfamiliar environment!"

Patrick's face froze. "I don't have sympathy?"

Amelia simply vented the dissatisfaction in her heart. "Isn't it? Since the first day Rick came to the house, you have been bullying and roaring at him. You don't allow him to do this. You don't allow him to do that. You often said that you want to drive it away. Now you could see him lying on the cold operating table, you must be happy!"

Patrick took a step forward and calmly spat out a few words, "Are you done scolding me? Go home."

Amelia choked on her breath, feeling as if her heart was going to burst out.

Knowing that she could not run away under his eyes, Amelia reluctantly said, "It's not that I can't go home with you, but I have to go back and inform Dr. Lawson first..."

"Didn't you already did that?" Patrick did not want her to interact with others.

Amelia frowned and said, "I haven't left any contact information. What if he can't get in touch with me if anything happen to Rick during the treatment?"

Patrick thought for a while and felt it reasonable. He said, "I'll give him my contact information. You stay where you are and don't run around."

Seeing that Amelia being quite and seemed to be planning something else, Patrick darkened his eyes and simply opened the car door to push her in. Before she could react, he closed the door again and locked the door with the car key.

Now, no matter how much energy Amelia used to open the door, it was all in vain. As long as Patrick did not unlock the door, she had to stay inside all the time and could not get out.

In order to prevent her from staying in the car for too long, Patrick stepped forward quickly and returned to the pet store.

Under Fabian's surprised gaze, his hand that was about to take out his business card from his suit paused. He forgot that he did not have to go to the company today, so he did not bring his business card along.

"Sir, you..." Fabian was about to ask him what was the matter?.

Patrick retracted his hand and said expressionlessly, "Take out your phone and write down my phone number."

"Oh, okay..." Under Patrick's innate force and expected order, Fabian immediately followed his order like a follower.
